“We are going to do something that I will say is slightly controversial but it shouldn’t be. We are going to indemnify policemen and precincts and states and cities from being sued. We want them to do their job. Our police and law enforcement has to come back and they want to come back and they want to do their job. And we are going to indemnify them so they don’t lose their wife, their family, their pension, and their job. We are going to indemnify policemen and law enforcement. We are going to tell them to get out, we love you, do your job.” – Trump, speaking last night at the New York Young Republicans Club gala.

    And yet millions of people still want to vote for him! It’s baffling!

      That’s because they think it’ll only apply to “those other people” that they don’t like. For example, with police brutality, the white, straight, Christian right thinks the police will only beat “black thugs” so it’s perfectly fine in their book.

      They want to vote for him because they agree with him.

      It is not baffling in the least.

        They think they’ll be the one with their boot in someone’s face.

        Not the one being “put in their proper place”
