Trump says he saved LA from being 'obliterated' - as governor warns he'll sue president

Donald Trump has claimed that Los Angeles would have been "completely obliterated" if he hadn't sent in the National Guard.

This is the first we've heard from the US president today about the disorder in LA.

Taking to Truth Social, he claimed sending in the National Guard was a "great decision".

He also took aim at the likes of Gavin Newsom and Karen Bass - state Democratic politicians.

Trump said: "The very incompetent 'Governor,' Gavin Newscum, and 'Mayor,' Karen Bass, should be saying, 'THANK YOU, PRESIDENT TRUMP, YOU ARE SO WONDERFUL. WE WOULD BE NOTHING WITHOUT YOU, SIR.'"

While Trump is keen to talk up his decision, Democratic politicians have said he only inflamed tensions by sending in the National Guard.

Also, much of the law enforcement is still being done by the Los Angeles Police Department, with others characterising Trump's move as a political stunt.

Newscum is literally so stupid he’s killing any chance of becoming President.

Only a typical useless RINO would lose to him in 2028.

Seems like we have a Vance or Rubio to ensure that doesn’t happen, hopefully!

Rubio has surprised me. So much so I might see him stating Sec of State.

He wasn’t ready for prime time in 2016.
