    Looking at traffic and road closures on Maps, 2000 NG are mobilized to watch a few miles of freeway going into the city. The protests are only blocking one side of the freeway and anyone can leave. What a massive over reaction.

    And those troops are sleeping on floors and have no bathrooms. Imagine having to crush the liberty of your fellow neighbor while being unable to take a shit in a toilet.

    Salute them for their service.

      Same thing happened when they were finally sent to defend the Capitol on Jan 6th.

      Also remember when Trump called them up and pulled them away from their families for Thanksgiving so he could fearmonger that migrant caravan full of women and children?

        Yup, exactly what I thought of. Concrete parking garage in winter. Without food. Remember a few Democrat politicians would buy pizza for the service members because Trump didn’t care about them?

        Trump has so little regard for service members.
