Following on the heels of the Boy Scouts, the Suffolk County Police Department has become the second organization in two days to disavow statements from Trump after the President called for more police brutality during a Friday speech to law enforcement officers.

Trump said, “And when you see these towns and when you see these thugs being thrown into the back of a paddy wagon — you just see them thrown in, rough — I said, please don’t be too nice. Like when you guys put somebody in the car, and you’re protecting their head, you know, the way you put their hand over? Like, don’t hit their head and they’ve just killed somebody — don’t hit their head. I said, you can take the hand away, okay?”
The Suffolk County Police Department tweeted:
The SCPD has strict rules & procedures relating to the handling of prisoners. Violations of those rules are treated extremely seriously.

As a department, we do not and will not tolerate roughing up of prisoners.

On Thursday, The Boy Scouts of America apologized for Trump’s inappropriate speech to their national jamboree.
How many organizations had to apologize for or disavow speeches given by the previous five presidents? The answer to that question is zero.
Donald Trump is not well, and anytime that he is irresponsibly allowed to abuse the presidential platform in public is another moment of national disgrace that will result in a cleanup crew being forced to follow behind and clean up his toxic mentally broken mess.
