Police Union Says “Clinton Snubbed Us”
After hosting an “anti-cop” hatefest at the DNC convention in Philadephia last week, it’s no surprise that Clinton’s camp snubbed the National Fraternal Order of Police.
From The Hill:
Top officials at the biggest police union in the country are upset with Hillary Clinton, saying she snubbed them.
The leader of the National Fraternal Order of Police told The Hill that the Democrat sent a signal through her staff that she wouldn’t be seeking the union’s endorsement.
“It sends a powerful message. To be honest with you, I was disappointed and shocked,” said Chuck Canterbury, the president of the National Fraternal Order of Police.
“You would think with law enforcement issues so much in the news that even if she had disagreements with our positions, that she would’ve been willing to say that.”
Clinton’s opponent, Donald Trump, is now actively seeking the union’s support as he trumpets a “law and order” message on the campaign tail.
Canterbury spoke to The Hill in a telephone interview Friday, shortly after he left Trump Tower in Manhattan.
He and other leaders of the police union — which says it represents 335,000 members — visited with Trump on Friday morning to sound out the Republican nominee about his positions on issues of importance to law enforcement officers. Politico first reported the meeting.
The union will not be meeting with Clinton because her campaign decided not to fill out a questionnaire that is required for seeking the police union’s endorsement.
“We were talking to the highest levels of the campaign, and we had all indications that she was going to return the questionnaire,” Canterbury said.
“And on the deadline date we were advised that they declined.”
The current domestic chaos we’re facing from homegrown terrorists like Black Lives Matter and New Black Panthers will continue to grow and become more empowered under a Hillary Clinton presidency.
Donald Trump is offering an alternative to chaos and destruction.
Law and order.
A large part of Donald Trump’s America First agenda includes restoring order and peace domestically.
We can’t afford another four years of groups like Black Lives Matter running amuck, burning down buildings and terrorizing citizens.
It’s time to take our country back from anarchists.
