President Donald Trump’s reelection campaign was endorsed by the Police Benevolent Association of the City of New York (NYCPBA) on Friday. The first time in 36 years any Presidential Candidate has been endorsed according to Pat Lynch.
Trump has strongly supported law enforcement officers across the U.S. in the face of nationwide protests against racism and police brutality. In June, Trump referred to himself as “your law and order president.” Trump’s administration has staunchly rejected the movement to defund police departments. In July, the New York City Council approved $1 billion in budget cuts for the New York Police Department. Police groups and President Trump decried the move.
NYCPBA President Patrick Lynch said he could not remember a time in 36 years when the NYCPBA had endorsed any presidential candidate “until now.”
“Many times, people say that a union like ours, law enforcement groups, give endorsements,” Lynch said to Trump. “Not in the New York City PBA, sir. In the New York City PBA, sir, you earn the endorsement and you’ve earned this endorsement. I’m proud to give it.”
