Trump to sign police reform executive order on Tuesday

U.S. President Donald Trump will sign an executive order on Tuesday that will seek to improve how police officers treat African Americans and others by improving credentialing, training and mental health resources, administration officials said.

JUNE 15, 2020

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump said on Monday he will sign an executive order on police reform and hold a news conference on Tuesday, after several weeks of nationwide protests sparked by the death of African-American George Floyd while in police custody in Minneapolis.

In comments to reporters, Trump also said the shooting by police of a black man in Atlanta was a terrible situation and very disturbing.

No details on Trump's executive order on police reform have been released. Democrats and Republicans in Congress are working on separate proposals on the issue.

Cops wear masks fulltime. If they can't be ID'ed they can't be arrested for brutality, therefore there is none!

"if we made it ilegal to film cops on the job, we would have very few cases of police brutality if any"

This is gonna be a weaksauce bandaid for appearances only that he'll immediately squander any garnered goodwill from by saying something stupid and/or racist mere hours after signing.

I am thinking the worst thing possible (probably more military and money to police) is going to happen.

In the first place you can't really do much of anything about policing with an executive order. In the second place it's fucking Trump.

Police will reform to violently shut down things like CHAZ and use their school military vehicles and grenade launchers to put down protests thuggery before it starts. Execute Order 66.

The police dissolved immediately... as all police are, effective immediately, enlisted into the federal military as Trump's LAW & ORDER unit to engage in the newly-declared War on Black Identity Politics.

His polling must have him truly terrified for him to even think of doing anything like this.

It's going to be hollow, regardless.

I don't think much can be done federally, especially by this administration. It has to start from the ground up which means voting in local elections. Not just in November but when they have them in May and August or whenever for your area. In many places, the entire apparatus of local justice is elected. The sheriff, the judges, the prosecutors. Replacing these people with progressive, reform minded folks is a big step in my mind since they wield a lot of power in their departments.

I'm not holding my breath. It's going to be another flaccid scheme that ultimately amounts to more of his conspirators getting paid and no significant change happening. At most they'll throw us a bone that addresses 2% of the problem. Likely while sneaking in some bones for the cops too.

Looking forward to disappointment tomorrow and seeing the protests continue.

I imagine this will be as effective as any of his other EOs...

It'll be announced on twitter, before talked over with anyone on his team; It will not be enforceable at all; Will be forgotten about in one week, when he does/says something that completely contradicts it.

No shooting...unless it's really really necessary*.
No chokeholds...unless it's really really necessary*.

*really really necessary is defined as when the perpetrator Is black or brown.

Yeah, this will be worded one way, but mean the opposite. This is bullshit. Trump does nothing with integrity. He'll announce the "Safe Police Act", but it will mean that the police are the ones that are safe.
