Newsom calls Trump’s consideration of sending troops to San Francisco “laughable”
California Governor Gavin Newsom called President Trump’s plan to send National Guard troops to San Francisco “laughable,” suggesting the president had to reverse course for “obvious reasons” because “there’s nothing happening” in the city. “He couldn’t even make up a pretense for this,” Newsom told Robert Costa in an interview airing on “CBS Sunday Morning” this weekend.
