The National Association of Police Organizations (NAPO) endorsed President Trump’s reelection Wednesday, praising his “steadfast and very public support” for law enforcement. NAPO did not endorse a candidate in the 2016 election but endorsed former President Barack Obama and then-Vice President Joe Biden in both the 2008 and 2012 elections. TRUMP HOPING TO GET BACKING OF POLICE UNIONS AS LAW ENFORCEMENT CONCERNS OVER BIDEN MOUNTThe police association, which represents more than 1,000 police associations and 241,000 officers, met with Trump on Monday. Officers have faced routine disparaging in wake of nationwide racial injustice protests, and some have called out presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden for not condemning anti-police rhetoric. “There's a big question amongst our members if Joe Biden is going to stand up and support the police.”Fox News' Hillary Vaughn and Andrew O'Reilly contributed to this report.
