U.S. President Donald Trump said Friday that he would deploy the National Guard to combat crime in Memphis -- a Democratic-led city in the state of Tennessee. Tennessee Governor Bill Lee on Friday issued a statement confirming the upcoming deployment.

After deploying the National Guard to Washington, D.C. to fight crime in August, Trump has recently indicated that he could send troops to other cities, including Chicago and Baltimore, both of which are led by Democrats.
