While speaking to reporters in the Oval Office, Trump floated the possibility of expanding his largely baseless military crackdown.
“So, we’re going to be going to maybe Louisiana,” Trump added.
In 2024, New Orleans had a homicide rate of 34.7 murders per 100,000 residents, while the rate in Washington D.C., where Trump instituted a federal crackdown earlier this summer, was 27.3 per 100,000 residents, according to a report from the Rochester Institute of Technology.
Still, Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry had approved sending some of his state’s National Guard troops to Washington D.C. to assist in Trump’s so-called crackdown on crime in the capital, despite the fact that his own state has far-higher crime rates.
So far, Trump’s use of National Guard troops to counter crime has been focused on Democratic cities. On Tuesday, a federal judge ruled that Trump’s decision to deploy the National Guard in Los Angeles had blatantly violated the 1878 Posse Comitatus Act, an act prohibiting the use of the U.S. military to execute domestic law.
While the decision apparently infuriated the president, who has claimed he has the “the right to do anything” he wants, Trump appears reluctant to help anyone who isn’t willing to beg him for it.
