Police Morale Boosted, Line-of-Duty Deaths Down, ‘No Bigger Advocate’ Than Trump

Since President Obama left office, morale for law enforcement officers has been boosted across the country. Line-of-duty deaths are down, departments have the equipment they need, and police officials are thanking President Trump for being their biggest advocate.
In addition, fatal shootings of police declined in 2017, crime rates are lower, and tensions between cops and minorities have also cooled. Overall, police departments know Trump has their backs unlike the previous president who stoked racial tensions.
National Fraternal Order of Police Executive Director Jim Pasco said:
“Arguably the most significant thing a president can do is use the bully pulpit to reflect his support for law enforcement. To this point in [Trump’s] presidency, he has certainly gone out of his way to do that. That resonates within the profession, and it’s received very favorably.”
Pasco also said that protesters are less emboldened to launch attacks against officers because they know they don’t have an advocate in the White House: “People who otherwise might feel empowered in making these attacks see far less empathy or support from authority figures than they may have in the past.”
