President Donald Trump on Wednesday shed more light on his threat to send “more than the National Guard” to U.S. cities he deems dangerous. (Watch the video below.)
In an interview with the press aboard Air Force One en route to South Korea, Trump was asked about those previous remarks to military personnel in Japan.
“I would do that if it was necessary ... but it hasn’t been necessary,” Trump said on the plane. “We’re doing a great job without that. .. As you know, I’m allowed to do that.”
When the reporter appeared to ask him which branch of the military he would send in, Trump reverted to a familiar strategy of belittling journalists.
“Who are you with?” he asked. “The New York Times,” the reporter answered.
