Thanks, Trump.
This wouldn’t be happening if you didn’t say police act stupidly.

You have some very fine people on both sides

I do think it’s fair to say that Trump has worked aggressively, through words, Tweets and firings, to undercut American law enforcement at every turn.
A friend of law enforcement, he ain’t.
We can toss every intelligence agency and the military in there too.
Basically, if you go to work every day with the mission of keeping America safe, Trump has shown his disdain for you on many occasions.
Go back to your safe place. Snowflake.
While this behavior is unacceptable, I think there is a lesson that could be learned here, which is that police acting with more restraint can result in better outcomes. This situation could have escalated and people could have got hurt or worse, but as it is the situation diffused and the perpetrators were later caught and/or handed themselves in. I’m not saying the police handled it perfectly, but I think - in general - more restraint from the police in many of these types of circumstances would be better. Same for police vehicle chases. UK and Australian police forces are trained to act with far more restraint and to avoid escalating situations wherever possible.

He has? All I’ve seen is support from him for law enforcement. He doesn’t like bad cops, cops that abuse their position to try to take down politicians they don’t like. I bet you think Obama was supportive of law enforcement though.

I also took some issue with DieselPete, but not quite as to the point to bring Obama back into the game.
Disdain shown by Trump for the local cop on the street is a ruse. What is not a ruse is the disdain shown by Trump for the current boundaries of acceptable versus unacceptable reaction on matters of the law and in some instances it’s enforcement. By his personal example, with the words that come out of his mouth, he plain and simple makes the life of the cop on the street more difficult. The result being just more poor behavior on both sides as we all anger more easily over BS.
I’ve been hearing for years that blacks live in fear of the police. The left and the news media told me that blacks are terrorized by the police. That every black youth has to have “the talk.” The people in this video, and countless other videos, sure don’t seem to be fearful of the police. You know, I’m starting to think that was all just more liberal b.s.
What the what?
Trump says and does many things which are deserving of disdain. Disrespecting law enforcement is not one that I have seen or heard.
Please provide examples to support your statements.

I’m pretty sure he has shit all over the FBI. As with most thing Trump it all depends on how it relates to him.

Trump had a damn good reason to criticize the FBI (see Strzok, Page). I think all members of law enforcement have no problem with Trump criticizing dirty cops. From videos I’ve seen, Trump seems to get a pretty warm reception from law enforcement members.

Probably I’m just providing an example of him disrespecting law enforcement. Pretty sure many instances beyond anything related to a dirty cop.

Trump has absolutely crapped on the DOJ, he feels unfairly attacked and lacks any tact or self control (see efforts to obstruct) in his responsive behavior. So Trump has abused and undermined federal agencies, Obama certainly made life harder for local law enforcement and police forces have paid the price and continue to do so.

Does his constant criticism of the FBI and DOJ count? If so, we could provide a few thousand examples.

Example of disrespecting the enforcement of our laws,
“I love wikileaks”. DJT quote. I seem to recall those guys as bad actors not quite in compliance of our laws. Does this fit?
“he also knows that I am with him.” DJT quote about KJU. Not quite as well fitting, but support of the worlds most goulish dictator well… not quite in support of
“I think you might want to listen; there isn’t anything wrong with listening. You don’t call the FBI.” Quote DJT on the law that requires reporting foreign contacts made to political campaigns
"Who is that state senator…We’ll also destroy his career. " DJT quote to the Texas sheriff who was telling of some legislator who wanted to reign in the current asset forfeiture law. How ironic, spoken from oval office with a group the the finest LEO’s sheriffs of our country. No disrespect intended but yet delivered in person to them anyway. Should also be noted the attempt at a joke was not well received by the group. As in they did not join in in laughter. I know that it is not illegal to ruin someone’s career. But it is not quite being a good citizen and certainly not worthy of mutual respect and support from these sheriffs.
“The rule of law. respect for our institutions. Equal protection.” Slowman’s words commenting negatively about Trump’s actions. As in Trump disrespects- doesn’t have - and doesn’t believe in.
All the above ignored witch hunt contempt voiced for a legal investigation into his actions about Russia.
The point I tried to make in my post: If you take the perspective that as president he leads and sets the example for both the LEO and the affronted public citizen, then he gives license to both to act in ways disrespectful of the law and its enforcement.
I can go further in explanation if needed.
There is a heat wave so that sounds kind of refreshing.

Yeah, he definitely supported his hand-picked top cop Jeff Sessions. You know, the “beleaguered†A.G.?
And when he publicly sided with Putin over our intelligence community because Putin made a “very strong denial†about election meddling; that was definitely supportive of law and order.
I won’t start on his comments about a war hero, how he treated Code Talkers, or a Gold Star Family.
I could go on all day but you guys will just call it “counterpunching†or engage in what-aboutism or worse.
If someone threw a bucket of water on me while I was at work- it would not end well. And I’m just some dumb software sales guy. Not nearly the pressure that cops deal with on the street.
The NYPD should release a statement “The throwing of water, buckets, rocks or any other liquid or solid object at an police officer is considered assault. Our officers are trained to defend themselves against assault from unlawful citizens. Any type of assault on an officer is considered any attack on their safety. They have been trained and are encouraged to protect their safety at all costs. This includes arrest, taser and use of their firearm (we shoot to kill when discharging our firearms). Please consider this as your final warning.â€
You do realize that NYPD and all police departments across our country operate under either a State, County, or City, right! You think Trump’s nonsense w KJU affects street thugs in NYC and their disrespect for local law enforcement personnel?
DiBlasio is anti-cop. And a douchebag in general but that’s another topic. He sets the tone in the city re law enforcement support and the respect or lack thereof for the officers.
A POTUS can potentially cause anti-cop issues but you’re accusing Trump and his stupid comments/attitude re Putin as setting the anti-cop tone in a city. Give me a break.
Here’s an example you’re looking for re a POTUS and cops. When “hands up don’t shoot†Michael Brown was shot, Obama was all over it. Jumping to conclusions faster than CNN that this was a racist cop shooting a perfectly innocent black kid in the back. Then, when it became clear the narrative was bullshit, Obama didn’t then defend the cop who acted professionally and appropriately. No, he sent administration officials to Brown’s funeral while the city was being torn to shreds. THAT is an example of a POTUS making life harder for local cops across the country.
How about a POTUS supporting Kaepernick’s anti cop stance, including CK wearing socks depicting cops as pigs. THAT drives an anti cop sentiment across the country.
Here in CA, our legislature and Governor passed a law reducing the threshold of various crimes to allow them to release criminals from prison. Virtually all of the DAs, Sheriffs and police institutions in the state were adamantly against this new law. THAT is how you drive anti cop issues at the local (State, County, City) level.
Trump is a disaster re federal agencies including federal officers and the intel community. Hes a disaster period. But he is pro military. I think anyways. But I can’t find any example of him doing or saying anything that indicates a lack of support for local law enforcement.
Infinite examples of Trump being an ass and affecting institutions but not local cops.
