Morning Blast from Trump

The President addressed FBI law enforcement officers this morning at Quantico. The general theme is that law enforcement needs our full support and respect. Fine.

However, his posture included that he appreciated their loyalty to him because no one is more loyal to them than Donald Trump. That is surely debatable. It is most certainly Trump's style of patronizing the audience in a manner sounding like an authoritarian dictator.

Trump, the manipulator, added the attack on the immigration process that uses a lottery system to admit people into the country. He alleged that "many of them" are criminals of various types.

I agree that the lottery idea is ignorant. Congress should fix that immediately. However, to make generalized accusations against a segment of immigrants is wrong. That is the trouble with Trump. He takes something that is correct and adds his personal "wrong" ingredient and spin. That undermines his credibility.

Americans have the backs of law enforcement. Donald Trump serves Americans so long as he enforces the law and if he has not broken the law. Stay tuned for the outcome because this presidency is on probation and We the People are the probation officers.

  1. US President Donald Trump has said he supports the FBI "100%" less than an hour after criticising the agency.
