steve: last night at rallies, there was a squabble between whether or not the officers could wear their uniforms inside the arena as of last night. a lot of officers and supporters wore those red cops for trump t-shirts right behind the president there was dozens of them. don t know exactly what the complete count was. but at least the people who were attendance last night were big supporters of cops. well, look. i think the american people should be big supporters of cops. right? these men and women leave the safety and security of their home every day to defend this nation and put themselves in harm s way. many don t go home. if did you go to the national law enforcement memorial in washington, d.c. there is over 20,000 men and women who have died serving this country. they strap a gun to their hip. tools of the trade. i have been to the national sheriff s association. this president has the sense of every police officer in this country. he loves first responders and fire departmen
pushed out at these trump campaign rallies. it is hateful, it is divisive, we do not welcome that kind of rhetoric in minneapolis. minneapolis is dealing with a crippling police shortage that was highlighted by a pair brutal robberies caught on video last month showing mobs beating innocent bystanders in broad daylight. the police chief has requested 400 additional officers by 2025 and so far the mayor has proposed hiring just 14. in response to the new policy the police union is now selling red cops for trump t-shirts which they are encouraging off-duty officers to where on thursday and those shirts are selling fast. they sold out a couple times and they had to place additional orders.
