Trump says police need to be “tougher.”

Ask Donald Trump, and he’ll tell you it’s police who are oppressed — and the solution is to give them permission “to go and counter-attack.”

In an interview with Bill O’Reilly Monday night, the Republican presidential nominee repeatedly claimed that electing him president would restore order and civility to city streets practically overnight. But when pressed by a friendly interviewer for specific plans, Trump had only one.

“Your tone is pro-police. How do you stop the bad guys from attacking them?” O’Reilly asked.

“By giving them back your spirit and by allowing them to go and counter-attack,” Trump said.

    So in a Trump administration, law enforcement could just blow away the next tax-dodging land stealing right wing Cliven Bundy wannabe, no questions asked? I must admit it is tempting.

    But I am still voting Hillary…

    “By giving them back your spirit”
    So the police want O’Reilly’s spirit? I’m not following this.

    I believe this is the same b.o. who said a Mexican wall will probably be an executive order after discussing its passing legislation with the trumpster

    Has anyone told this idiot that Presidents don’t have the authority to give State, county and municipal police officers permission, license or privilege to do anything?

    • whatthe46 August 24th, 2016 at 09:05

      nope.

    • Suzanne McFly August 24th, 2016 at 11:04

      Why bother, then we wouldn’t get great comments like this one to throw back in his face during the debates.

    Another thoughtless comment tossed out with no explanation. To me it sounds like letting cops rampage through certain areas, killing people they don’t like with no accountability. Something like you’d see in Honduras. His hard core followers will eat this up.
