Trump: 'I Was Really Referring To Chicago' With Stop And Frisk Proposal

Source: Talking Points Memo

Donald Trump on Thursday morning said that when he proposed using "stop and frisk" policing techniques to address crime during a town hall with Fox News' Sean Hannity, he was referring specifically to Chicago. "I was really referring to Chicago with stop and frisk. They asked me about Chicago," Trump said Thursday morning on "Fox and Friends."

Trump's town hall was scheduled to air Wednesday night, but was postponed to Thursday night. According to a partial transcript from NBC News published on Wednesday, Trump proposed using "stop and frisk" to combat crime.

"I would do stop and frisk," he said, according to NBC News. "I think you have to. We did it in New York, it worked incredibly well, and you have to be proactive, and you know, you really help people change sort of change their mind automatically. You understand, you have to have, in my opinion. I see what's going on here. I see what's going on in Chicago, I think stop and frisk."

Trump spokeswoman Hope Hicks told TPM on Wednesday that Trump "did not propose nationalizing stop and frisk."

he would have said Chicago. He wanted nationwide. Too many people are screaming about it and objecting to it. No one wants it, and we see it what it is: Show me your papers.

Last time ai checked the chicago city council enacts local city ordinances not the potus. Trump thinks the president can do anything. Not surprising given his role model is Putin.

Stopping random cars and making them listen to former Senator Dr. Frist is definitely cruel and unusual.

The NYPD commissioner said in 2015 that it affected overall crime insignificantly. Studies clearly show that AFTER stop and frisk was rolled back, shooting crime plummeted and murders plummeted. It NEVER WORKED AT ALL.
