California Governor accuses Trump of sending troops to LA without food, shelter

Source: India Today

California Governor Gavin Newsom accused Donald Trump of sending National Guard troops to Los Angeles without food, water, or shelter. He called the move disrespectful and shared images of troops sleeping on floors.


Newsom claimed that the Trump administration dispatched more than 2,000 troops to the city “without fuel, food, water or a place to sleep,” escalating a fierce standoff between the Democratic governor and the President.

"You sent your troops here without fuel, food, water or a place to sleep," Newsom wrote on X. "Here they are — being forced to sleep on the floor, piled on top of one another."

Good for Newsome to point this out.
Trump treats the troops like "suckers and losers."

It would be the ultimate put down.

Come on Gavin - let's get imaginative here. They opened the door. Barge on through it.

Sounds like a formula for disaster.
Maybe the protesters should set up picnic tables, provide nice cold water and some fresh homade food for our milititary and just talk.
Imagine the look on the Felon and Rat face Miller.

Sorry flashman, I didn't see your post before I wrote mine.
Great minds think alike.
