Okay, but you could accomplish that with 1/10th as many troops.

They're not 'invited'...they've been 'ordered' there.
And...Biden can't do any 'ordering'...yet.

If this has been posted, my apologies; I didn' see it.
Maybe I'm misinformed, but isn't the only person who can order National Guard troops to D.C. the "president"?
The president, until Jan 20, like it or not, is Trump. Not Biden.
Why would Trump order 25-50,000 NG troops to DC?
I'm probably just being stoopid, maybe it's the meds, but I don't get it. It doesn't make sense.
There are nearly THREE entire DIVISIONS of military personnel converging on DC!! The entire D-Day invasion in Europe was only 3 divisions of US troops for cripes sakes!!! Yes, there were some British and Canadian troops also, but still D-Day was the largest mobilization of men and machines in the history of mankind!!
What the hell is going on????
