"In the city of Chicago, I don't give a damn what they say. I have no problem with sending in the National Guard, Smith said. They were a problem before Obama got into office, when [Obama] was a junior senator, they was a problem when he was in office for eight years as a president. They've been a problem now. And I've seen black people come on television locally and nationally, crying for support, whether it's from the National Guard or whatever it takes."
"What [Trump] did in Washington, D.C. saved a lot of lives. Most of the lives he saved were black, because most of the victims of violent crime in Washington, D.C. are black, Travis said. He added a lot of white people who live in posh parts of the nation's capital don't want to admit that fact, because they would prefer to pretend black violence and inner-city violence doesn't exist."
Stephen A. Smith endorsed President Donald Trump's plan to send the National Guard to Chicago, calling the city's violence a full-blown crisis and saying he has no problem with federal intervention. Smith said Chicago's problems predate Barack Obama's tenure and described seeing Black residents appeal publicly for support, including the National Guard. Clay Travis praised Trump's crime crackdown in Washington, D.C., saying it saved many lives—mostly Black victims—and criticized affluent white residents for denying inner-city violence. The president announced plans after a Labor Day weekend surge in shootings in Chicago, while Mayor Brandon Johnson and Governor JB Pritzker oppose federal deployment.
