According to former president Trump, President Joe Biden’s supporters are preventing him from showing support for the police, which is why he did not attend the wake of slain NYPD officer Jonathan Diller.
A tragic incident occurred in Queens where Diller, a 31-year-old individual, lost their life during a routine traffic stop. Tragically, he is survived by his wife and son.
A two-day wake commenced on Thursday, with the former president in attendance.
“This country is going to hell” Trump said on the same day during a Fox News interview on the subject.
“I think that politically he can’t support the police. I think he’s also making a mistake, but I think politically, his base won’t let him support the police. And I support the police, I would say at the highest level of any president by far, maybe double or triple. And they knew that. That’s why when I walked into that funeral parlor, it was — it was like love. It was just — they want to shy away it. They didn’t even call the family. They could have called. You don’t have to be a rocket scientist to know even a call would be, perhaps — I’m not sure they would take his call.” Trump remarked.
According to reports, a staggering number of police, estimated at 100,000, gathered to pay their respects at Diller’s funeral.
The ex-president mentioned being invited to the wake and expressed his appreciation for the first responders in attendance.
