“..Send in the National Guard. President Trump:....”
The Guard is controlled by the Governor...in this case Jerry “Moonbeam” Brown. For Trump to command the California National Guard he would first have to “federalize” it, essentially joining it with the US Army.
Works for me.
We are under hostile occupation here. What would Truman have done if the Germans had taken Virginia? It’s a damned invasion, help throw out the invaders or stop pretending that we have anything approaching national sovereignty; at least Mexico knows how to deal with illegal immigrants.
