Trump says he'll bring the military into D.C. if necessary

00:40

President Trump announced that he would "bring the military" into the U.S. capital if necessary after he announced that the D.C. police would come under federal control to combat crime. The president emphasized that he doesn't think the military will be needed, but he would be ready to deploy it. "People say, 'Oh, that's so terrible. He's going to bring in.' It's been used many times over the years. I don't think we'll need it," Trump told reporters. Aug. 11, 2025
