How this clown became the Democrat nominee is beyond everyone's wildest guess.
He claims he grew up in a town where you either became a policeman, fireman, or a priest. Then states he wasn't qualified to do those jobs.
And if that wasn't pathetic enough, he admits that he doesn't have the support of police "this year"
If America elects this brain dead fool and his commie handlers I wouldn't be surprised if every cop in America just flat out quits.
He is playing this smart, while Trump overplayed the "tough on crime angle". Really, Trump was fooled into this position, but, he didn't take the bait entirely, by for instance, sending in National Police and getting all the bad video coverage. That was wise. IMO he has to grab the moderates to win.
"Yes, we go after violent looters and rioters, however, unlike SOME, we aren't going to write Bills that thrown people in prison for life for stupid, non-violence decisions years ago. Even the police don't want that."
"Thus, we enacted the First Steps Act, no other government passed this, we also put forward police reform that provides a balance. NO citizen should have their civil liberties harmed no matter the issue, color of their skin. All deserve Due Process be they the accused or the police".
THAT is how Trump wins the Independents and keeps Biden from gaining traction with the progressives, blacks and undecided for instance. Why Trump feels he needs to preach to the choir is beyond me. When you're in a tough battle and have the energy with your base, expand it, don't sit on it safely.
Next debate, Trump has to grab the middle by talking about avoiding wars and his economic positions on China. He has to point his opponents as they extremists and the most intolerant to the opportunities for minorities and Middle America. Trump has four years of successes, tout it all, not just red meat for the converted.
