A former top prosecutor of organized crime at the Justice Department was left flabbergasted at the message Donald Trump shared at his roundtable with the Fraternal Order of Police on Friday in North Carolina. Andrew Weissmann, who has left the DOJ for New York University, confessed his shock that the FOP endorsed Trump despite the ex-president being a convicted felon. "The idea ... that he would be speaking to law enforcement as sort of the 'law enforcement candidate,'" the shocked Weissmann said. "He can't take the mantle of Reagan Republicans on that. I would add to the litany that there are numerous people who have been charged and convicted of assaulting, in terrible ways, law enforcement," he added, referring to the Jan. 6 insurrection at the Capitol.ALSO READ: Why Trump’s Arlington controversy is actually a crime He noted, "Those are people that Donald Trump says he is thinking that they should be pardoned because they're patriots. How is that consistent with being pro-law enforcement? These are people who have been convicted!""Let's also just remember that Donald Trump himself is a convict. He has been convicted. He is facing other criminal cases," Weissmann also threw in.Then he dropped the hammer. "The idea that somebody who is a convicted felon, who is saying, I want to pardon people who did some of the worst possible things you can think of, which is attacking the Capitol — we all witnessed it ... is sitting there thinking people are stupid enough to think that you can just go and say, I'm pro-law enforcement. "Those are words, but we've seen actions that are completely anathema to those words."See the comments below or at the link here. - YouTube youtu.be
