It is Trump’s Fault that Two National Guard Members Were Shot in DC.
Trump is responsible for the shooting of two members of the national guard in multiple ways. —The national guard should not have been deployed to DC and —The Afghans should not have lost their special immigration status promised them at the end of the long war we fought on their country and —The shooter has legal status granted by the Trump administration.
