Vance’s Support for Deploying Troops to US Cities Sparks Outrage
Vice President JD Vance expressed his desire to expand Trump’s crime crackdown to all major American cities, citing “weak leadership” as the root cause of rising crime. During an interview with Matt Gaetz, Vance endorsed replicating federal policing strategies seen in Washington, D.C., and the recent “Operation Midway Blitz” in Chicago. He explicitly named cities like Detroit, Milwaukee, and Chicago as targets for federal intervention, asserting that common-sense law enforcement could reclaim the streets for citizens. Additionally, Vance echoed Trump’s stance on “narcoterrorists,” advocating for wartime-like rules of engagement, even if it meant extrajudicial killings.
