San Francisco, the once jewel of the West Coast, has become a cautionary tale of liberal mismanagement and failed progressive policies. It’s no wonder President Trump is considering sending in the National Guard to restore order to this crumbling city. While Governor Gavin Newsom and his liberal cronies boast about declining crime rates, the reality on the ground paints a different picture: a metropolis plagued by chaos, lawlessness, and desperation.
The bluest of blue cities, San Francisco, is sinking under the weight of its own leftist dogmas. When a city becomes a free-for-all for criminals while regular folks are left pleading for safety, drastic measures are not just necessary—they’re long overdue. Trump’s potential deployment of the National Guard is a lifeline to a city teetering on the edge. The critics, of course, are quick to call this a vanity project, dismissing it as another one of Trump’s “fantasies.” But isn’t it just wishful thinking to believe that their lax policies are working when the evidence says otherwise?

Even tech titans like Mark Benioff and Elon Musk are siding with the President on this one, showing that, despite their usual love affair with liberal politics, even they recognize a sinking ship when they see one. When San Francisco’s own elites are waving the white flag and welcoming the troops with open arms, it’s clear the left’s narrative is unravelling. The city’s leadership, however, insists it’s well-equipped to manage an emergency. But if that’s the case, why has San Francisco become virtually uninhabitable for regular people?
President Trump’s track record of deploying the National Guard to other cities facing similar dilemmas proves he means business when it comes to public safety. Unlike the liberal establishment, which would rather point fingers at Trump than take responsibility, the President understands not just the right, but the duty, to protect American citizens. The pushback from Governor Newsom and others is nothing but a smokescreen for their inability to govern effectively.
As the usual cry of “federal overreach” echoes, one must ask: what is the true priority here—partisan grandstanding or the safety and well-being of San Francisco’s residents? If city officials and state leaders refuse to abandon their utopian illusions even as their city crumbles, perhaps federal intervention isn’t just an option—it’s a necessity. When politics clouds judgment and lives are on the line, perhaps the only real fantasy is the belief that the left can actually keep people safe.
