President Trump announced Tuesday afternoon that he will deploy federal law enforcement to crime-ridden, far-left-controlled Chicago and Baltimore to combat violent crime. These progressive utopias of the Democratic Party have imploded into violent crime and chaos after years of failed social justice policies like "defund the police." 

During a press conference in the Oval Office, a reporter asked the president about sending National Guard troops to Chicago. The president responded: "We're going in," but added, "I didn't say when."

"Chicago is a hellhole right now, Baltimore is a hellhole right now," Trump said, adding, "I have an obligation .... this is a political thing." 

Just south of Baltimore City, Trump federalized the District of Columbia's Metropolitan Police Department and deployed the National Guard to clean up crime-ridden streets after years of lawlessness in some parts. Crime statistics so far indicate that the administration's move is heading in the right direction to restore law and order. 

"If the governor of Illinois would call up, call me up, I would love to do it," Trump said earlier. "Now, we're going to do it anyway. We have the right to do it."

Meanwhile, far-left Maryland Gov. Wes Moore was caught "half-naked" on George Clooney's luxury yacht ... 

Local Baltimore media reports. 

Trump is not wrong about labeling Chicago and Baltimore "hellholes." These crime-ridden metro areas are the result of a failed progressive experiment. Democrats own these "hellholes."
