US President Trump posted on his social media (SNS) on the 6th, suggesting sending the National Guard and federal troops to Chicago in the Midwest. He attached an image that mimics the film "Apocalypse Now" directed by Francis Ford Coppola, set against the backdrop of the Vietnam War, and threatened, "Chicago will know why it's called the War Department."
Trump signed an executive order on the 5th allowing the Department of Defense to be called the "War Department." He explained that he would show allies and hostile countries America's "strength," but Illinois Governor Pritzker, who has Chicago, criticized on X (formerly Twitter), "The President of the United States is threatening to wage war against an American city."
Trump's post shows Trump dressed as a character from the movie, wearing a hat, sunglasses, and a group of helicopters heading to the streets of Chicago, with a scene from the movie's famous dialogue, where he says, "I like the taste of being kicked out in the morning."
