Donald Trump is not quite the patrolman in chief, but he did meet Thursday with personnel implementing his law enforcement crackdown inside Washington, D.C.
In his showman’s fashion, he had suggested earlier in the day that he would walk the beat with police officers and National Guard members who have been patrolling the city’s streets since early last week.
Instead, Trump addressed a group of uniformed personnel outside a U.S. Park Police operations center in Washington’s Anacostia neighborhood for about 10 minutes. Snipers were seen on the roof, and some of the personnel took pictures and filmed videos on their phones.
