Quote:

"When you see these thugs being thrown into the back of a paddy wagon, you just seen them thrown in, rough. I said, ‘Please don’t be too nice,’" he said.

"When you guys put somebody in the car and you’re protecting their head you know, the way you put their hand over [their head]," Trump continued, mimicking the motion. "Like, 'Don’t hit their head and they’ve just killed somebody, don’t hit their head.' I said, 'You can take the hand away, OK?'

"I have to tell you, you know, the laws are so horrendously stacked against us, because for years and years, they've been made to protect the criminal. Totally made to protect the criminal. Not the officers. You do something wrong, you're in more jeopardy than they are," he added.

Due process. Too good for us, but not good enough for him.

Also, he picked the right audience for the speech.

Quote:

President Donald Trump gave a speech at a Long Island community college on Friday during which he encouraged the use of violence. Turns out the audience was comprised of officers in a police department that has been scrutinized for racial profiling, and whose former chief was recently sentenced to prison for beating a man.

The Suffolk County Police Department (SCPD) has been under federal oversight by the US Department of Justice since 2013, following a two-year investigation into allegations of discrimination against Latinos and immigrants. Nearly 20 percent of the county’s 1.5 million residents are Latino.

In other words, more minorities are going to be killed in the streets.

Trump is a Nazi.

In response, many departments have reiterated their strict policy against brutalizing suspects. Thank goodness.

I saw an update of the same story androbot posted.

just like he said, he could murder somebody in public and still be supported. the man is untouchable because his supporters see him as their way to attack the people they don't like [the poor, gays/liberated women and minorities].

Machismo is a double-edged sword. On one hand, you enemies will fear you and your supporters will trust you to get the job done. On the other hand, nobody will help you when you are in trouble because nobody has any real sympathy for you. That's what happens when you advertise yourself and a callous being with no feelings and no soul.

That's what Trump is setting himself up for. If he is ever in any serious danger, people will simply laugh at his pain and misfortune.

Arguing with a macho bully is futile. You just have to wait for him to trip and fall ... so you can piss on him.

I wouldn't piss on him if he was on fire. and his supporters I could never forgive for their treachery and callousness.

We'll show his supporters what REAL populism looks like.
They'll earn their forgiveness.

There are a fickle mob. You just need to know how to pull their strings.

Good.

Trump needs to learn the harsh lesson that every "tough guy" must learn. If he ever gets himself into a mess, we should expect him to be a man and fix it himself.

the only problem is that when he gets into a mess, the rest of us are in that same mess with him.

Really?

If we end up suffering, he will likely end up high and dry. The system is designed that way. He has a safety bunker after all.

In other words, some of his "mess-ups" may actually be products of deliberate malice.

If he ever get himself into a mess, we will be the mess he has to deal with.

Let's see how ballsy he is once the American masses begin to thirst for his blood.

What Trump isn't grasping is, those "thugs" as he calls them will very possibly get off due to police brutality. And he doesn't even consider the possibility that those arrested who he wants roughed up might be innocent.
