President Donald Trump said he will send U.S. soldiers into another American city, this time to protect ICE facilities "under siege" by "domestic terrorists."

Trump announced his plans Saturday in a social media post that called Portland, Oregon, "war ravaged." The White House didn't provide details.

Trump deployed the National Guard to Los Angeles in June and to Washington, DC, last month. He has also threatened to send troops to other cities, including Chicago, Baltimore and Memphis, Tennessee.

Should Trump send troops into Portland? Let us know by voting in the poll.
