Trump often talks about how much he loves police forces, but his campaign has almost $1 million in unpaid public safety costs
President Donald Trump has long touted his affection for the nation's police forces and has often referred to himself as the"law and order president," but his campaign has racked up nearly $1 million in unpaid public-safety costs for his rallies, with some debts going all the way back to 2016.
The group found one case in Lebanon, Ohio, from October where the president began his rally by asking a cheering crowd if they"love law enforcement or what?" The president later called the local police force"heroes" before adding a hearty,"thank you, law enforcement!" His campaign has still not paid the city the invoice of $16,191 despite a follow-up notification.
"The fiscal impact on local governments, especially during campaign seasons in critical vote states or communities, can be significant," Richard Myers, executive director of the Major Cities Chiefs Association and former police chief for several cities, including Colorado Springs, Colorado, and Newport News, Virginia, told CPI.
