Fraternal Order of Police Endorses Donald Trump for President

[Stellar]

The nation’s largest police labor organization announced its endorsement of Donald Trump for president on Friday.

The Fraternal Order of Police, which has more than 330,000 members, said in a press release that Trump has its full support.

According to the statement, “For a candidate to receive the endorsement of the Fraternal Order of Police, he must receive a two-third majority of the national board, which is made up of one Trustee from each of the organization’s state lodges.”

The Hill reports that Donald Trump made an aggressive play for support from the police union, meeting with top officials from the FOP at Trump Tower in May, and making stops on the campaign trail at local offices.

Hillary Clinton, on the other hand, declined to fill out the questionnaire necessary to win the group’s endorsement.

1. Which defies logic as Trump is solidly on record against unions.

Police without unions is like trying to unscramble eggs.

2. Police without the FOD, perhaps. nt

4. All regressives are against unions luckily for the FOP they are a grifter ass, racist,

domestic terror group so they will as per the usual be well taken care of and take care of their soul brothers the TeaPubLieKLANS.

3. The FOP is a good old boy, racist, scammy, right wing domistic terror organization not a union

really and as such will continue to support and be supported by radical regressives and various trash such as the TeaPubliKLAN party.

Supporting the FOP is dumber than chickens supporting Colonel Sanders.

6. why do police even need a union? they have the best benefits in America. Even better than our Vets.

[no_hypocrisy]

7. They have the best benefits in American BECAUSE they HAVE a union.

[Sunlei]

8. police already have Full 100% paid medical, pension plans, paid vacations and great salary.

That police "club" is not a Union at all.

11. Is there any question that the KKK have infiltrated law enforcement?

We really need to have a national discussion regarding this problem.

16. I'm sure they hate Colin Kaepernick with a passion and any others against the police.

Police killing with impunity is a mark of the FOP.

Why did I ever think that the police worked for the people? "We Protect and Serve" (who they want to)

[Faux pas]

12. Just as I thought

cops are racists.
