What city did he not send the National Guard into? New York? Because we had a conversation. I said, we don't need them here. We have 35,000 New York City police officers. We have 10,000 state police, MTA police officers. We don't need them. There is no rash of violence and crime. You know, the President sends in the National Guard to make a statement. (19:20–19:24)
