Mark Gallagher this morning defended his buddy Trump who told a fascist joke to New York cops this weekend, extolling police brutality, and urged them to smack a killers head into the car before putting them in the back seat.
I am furious and here is why:
First, he is all that we conservatives have, and this is yet another verbal gaffe that makes him seem like a bully and dictator wannabee, and it takes him off message--the advancement our our conservative agenda, and his mouthiness and cocky eagerness is harming out cause greatly.
Second, cops around the world in police states, abuse, torture and even murder those that they arrest by applying a little street justice when they are picked up. Is this the trend that the leader of the free world wants cops here to imitate? I hope not.
Third, there was much cheering and applause from the cops after Trump's remarks, and that deeply alarms me. We do not want cops abusing human rights, and it seems that the cheering might well reveal how they really feel and would like to do to citizens, lawabiding or lawless.
