Polls: Americans generally do not support Trump's deployment of the National Guard.
Local time on September 27, according to the latest law enforcement public opinion survey conducted by NPR and Ipsos, Americans are concerned about crime, but generally do not support President Trump's deployment of the National Guard to maintain public order in American cities.
Vice President of a global public opinion research company, Mallory Newell, stated that about 70% of Americans believe that the level of crime and violence in American cities has reached unacceptable levels. The American public generally believes that the crime rate in the United States and its major cities has increased, but they generally do not support actions taken in the name of crime prevention, such as deploying the National Guard.
According to reports, the continued presence of the National Guard in Washington D.C. has sparked protests, with a federal judge ruling that deploying troops to Los Angeles is illegal. Despite this, Trump is still pushing for an expanded deployment of the National Guard as a way to combat crime. Trump stated that the next target is Memphis, Tennessee.
