1) this should not have taken hours
2) the President need have nothing to do with it.
Random mayors cannot order around the National Guard. It is the governor, or when it is not a state, it is the president. That means the president is the one who should be handling it. It took hours because trump wanted it to take hours.

If you don't know the chain of command look it up.

You are correct. DC is not a state therefore under federal jurisdiction.
I just pointed out how the guard could have been called out without him ordering it.
DC does not have a governor, so only trump can call out the National Guard. The states around DC have governors, but there again, only trump could allow them to cross state lines.
Mayors have no say in calling out the National Guard.
If you don't know the chain of command look it up.
Generals dont need the Presidents permission to do something, unless Trump ordered them not to do it, which nobody claims, the chain of command has nothing to do it.

Only the Department of Defense, under command of the President, can use the National Guard.

What he said is factual.
Prove it....I already gave evidence of my claim.
You gave evidence that the National Guard is under the control of a mayor? I do not think so.
Here is a link that the DC National Guard's Commander-In-Chief is "The President of the United States", while the Virginia National Guard's Commander-In-Chief is "Governor Glenn Youngkin." I cannot find a National Guard where some mayor is commander-in-chief of it, or anywhere in the command structure.

I provided evidence directly contradicting your claim.
It is time for you to back up your claim.
From your link:
https://www.brennancenter.org/our-w...d-be-controlled-its-mayor-not-president-trumpBy law, the D.C. National Guard serves exclusively under the command of the president.
Your own link makes clear that you are wrong.

Trump people think their opinions are more valid than facts.
then-Secretary of the Army Ryan McCarthy.
Secretary of Army is a political appointee, and therefore an agent of trump.

"[FONT="]The DCNG is the only National Guard organization in the United States that is always under the president’s command. In every other state and U.S. territory, National Guard forces are under local control unless called into federal service. The unique command structure of the DCNG is often mistakenly attributed to the fact that D.C. is not a state. But statehood is not a prerequisite, as evidenced by the fact that Puerto Rico, Guam, and the U.S. Virgin Islands all exercise command and control over their Guard forces. The real explanation is that Congress [/FONT]established[FONT="] DCNG’s command structure in 1889, when D.C.

There is no way to call up the DC National Guard without the permission of the President. A good President would give pre-approval, but we all know trump is not a good president.
We have solved the first problem, we removed trump from office. Now we must make sure that if he returns to office, he cannot block the National Guard from doing their job.

Does not mean that the President must order it. Almost everything the military does was never ordered by the President. Please attempt to focus, retard is a bad look.

Who can order it?

Almost everything the military does is indirectly ordered by the President. The President orders something, and as it goes down the chain of command, the orders become more specific. Or the President orders that someone has the power to order it. Usually in times of trouble, the Commander-In-Chief will give an order to the National Guard to call up forces as needed. For some reason, trump ordered the opposite. No one can go against the Commander-In-Chief's orders.
