Trump says New York has been 'lost' to 'thugs and lowlife scum' after looters ransack Fifth Avenue and Macy's in second round of smash-and-grabs as curfew is brought forward from 11pm to 8pm - but the National Guard still isn't brought in

President Trump said on Tuesday morning that New York City had been 'lost' to 'lowlife scum' and 'thugs' after another night of looting which has prompted Mayor de Blasio and Cuomo to bring the curfew forward from 11pm to 8pm but the pair still refuse to call in the National Guard.

The looters smashed the store fronts of designers along Fifth Avenue and Madison Avenue, trashed Macy's, Sephora and the Lego Store in Herald Square, and were also seen ransacking Duane Reades and independently owned smoke shops as they snatched all they could before being rounded up by NYPD cops.

Further uptown, violence broke out in the Bronx where an NYPD officer was run over and others were beaten in the street.

Trump, earlier on Monday, warned state governors and particularly New York to 'toughen up' before the situation escalated.

On Tuesday morning, after another night of violent, he tweeted an attack on Gov. Cuomo and his CNN-anchor brother Chris, saying: 'Yesterday was a bad day for the Cuomo Brothers. New York was lost to the looters, thugs, Radical Left, and all others forms of Lowlife & Scum.

'The Governor refuses to accept my offer of a dominating National Guard. NYC was ripped to pieces. Likewise, Fredo’s ratings are down 50%!'

Gov. Cuomo is in charge of enlisting the National Guard if needed, not Trump. Yesterday, Cuomo said 13,000 troops were on standby but they had not yet been mobilized. Twenty other states have put theirs in action.

The carnage at nightfall came after a day in which thousands protested peacefully across the city over the death of George Floyd, a 46-year-old black man who was killed in Minneapolis last Monday when a police officer knelt on his neck for nearly nine minutes.

In the week since, distress has erupted across America as Black Lives Matters protesters fend off violent responses from police forces trying to disperse them and looters and rioters cash in on the chaos.
The city is fully under control and overwhelmingly calm and peaceful. That's just reality. I'm seeing it with my own eyes,

President Trump has only inflamed tensions by threatening to deploy the military across the country unless state governors crack down further. On Monday night, he finally emerged from the White House after keeping himself hidden away over the weekend to walk to a church for a photo-opp with a bible.

In order for him to get there, police rained tear gas and rubber bullets on a crowd of peaceful protesters.

New York City's 11pm curfew was announced yesterday afternoon by Gov. Cuomo and Mayor Bill de Blasio. It is the first time the city has imposed a curfew since the 1940s but it did little to stop the looters.

Long before 11pm, crowds were smashing store fronts along Fifth Avenue.

Upmarket fashion store Michael Kors on Fifth Avenue was among the luxury outlets hit, along with Nike and Lego.

Groups of young people moved from block to block around the district - usually bustling with tourists but deserted due to the coronavirus - with entire streets blocked by police.
