Donald Trump, who has called himself the "law-and-order" candidate, secured the endorsement Friday of the National Fraternal Order of Police, the nation's largest police union.
"He understands and supports our priorities and our members believe he will make America safe again," wrote Chuck Canterbury, president of the National Fraternal Order of Police, in the union's endorsement letter.

I too heard that from his Florida speech and I am SO impressed with the following President Trump has garnered.
I especially liked what that lady said before he spoke, "I'm not for Donald Trump, He's for ME"
THAT is one, powerful statement !

Yeah, that had to be a hard choice for the union leaders. "Should we support the candidate of the party that applauds the murders of our members for social justice? Or should we support the candidate of the party that wants our members to live?"
Decisions, decisions.

Many rank and file members from many unions will be voting for Trump from the privacy of the voting booth or mail in ballot.
Many Dems will be voting for Trump and most will keep it to themselves.

Honestly, I don't know.
Cops are a separate breed unto themselves.
I see them as primarily patriotic and family men, so it's a calculated guess they are more Republican than Democrat.
