Trumps Betrays Cops

President Donald Trump has declared war on American law enforcement – at least if it is in furtherment of him and his goals.


On his first day in office, he pardoned and commuted the sentences of the people convicted of planning the January 6, 2021, attack on the Capital and those who attacked law enforcement officers. He called those he let out of prison and jail “hostages.”


The goal of the attack was to stop Congress from certifying the presidential election which Joe Biden won. Of course, Trump and his minions claim to this day that the election was stolen. That is a claim which no court, including the U.S. Supreme Court, has seen any evidence supporting it. But no matter, as Adolph Hitler said, if you tell a big lie often enough people will believe it. Those are not his exact words, but that is essentially what he said, and what he practiced.


The message is clear: If you commit an act of violence for him, Trump will protect you.


Unless, of course, the crime falls under state law. Presidents have no pardoning power over state crimes. Who knows, though? He might find a way of getting them out of jail, such as putting pressure on governors or threatening to withhold federal dollars if they don’t free such “hostages.”


Or he could just send in the Army.


Trump has said he is above the law. So why should he worry about such a minor thing as the separation of power between the federal and state governments? Afterall, the concept is only in the U.S. Constitution. He took an oath to uphold and defend it. But if he’s above the law, why should such a minor thing as an oath stop him?


My advice to law enforcement: Watch your backs. The president doesn’t have your’s if you try to enforce laws he doesn’t like or defend yourselves against “his people.”
