"I said 'You don't have it under control, governor, but I'll check it and I'll call you back.' I called (her) back. I said 'you, this place is a nightmare,'"

President Trump targeted cities run by Democrats as unsafe and suggested using some as training grounds for the National Guard. He named San Francisco and cited Chicago, New York, and Los Angeles as examples needing to be "straightened out," describing the situation as a "war from within."

Portland officials said they did not request troops and objected. Local police data showed San Francisco major crimes down 36% over the past 12 months compared to the prior three-year average.
