CalMatters asked all Republicans in the state Legislature about the president overriding California's governor. Most wouldn't talk. The rest are on Team Trump.
The article from MSN discusses the reaction of California Republicans to former President Donald Trump's deployment of military forces in Los Angeles during the 2020 protests following George Floyd's murder.

The article suggests that this silence and varied responses reflect a broader political strategy and the complex dynamics within the Republican Party in California.
