Trump delivered a combative law-and-order speech in the New York suburb Friday, calling gang members "animals" and praising law enforcement for being "rough." President Trump's speech today was shameful, dangerous, and damages the progress our city has made toward improving police-community relations." Trump's remarks "set modern policing back and erased a lot of the strides we have made to build trust in our community." This is disgusting," Baltimore County Executive Kevin Kamenetz wrote on Twitter about Trump's remarks on the handling of suspected criminals. The group Blue Lives Matter tweeted that Trump's remarks were made in jest.
