Morphine Prince 109,649 Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 President Donald Trump offered to inflict political damage on lawmakers who try to limit civil asset forfeiture, making a joke about a practice that has come under serious criticism in recent years from Democrats and libertarian-minded Republicans. During a meeting at the White House with county sheriffs, Trump said he would “destroy” the career of a Texas state legislator who had proposed restrictions on seizures of property belonging to suspected criminals. “Do you want to give his name?” Trump asked Rockwall County, Texas, Sheriff Harold Eavenson after he complained about the legislator. “We’ll destroy his career.” The comment prompted laughter from participants in the meeting.

Maleficent 6 Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 That's it for tonight. My blood pressure is through the roof at this point. If I die, please charge Trump with manslaughter--at least. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morphine Prince 109,649 Posted February 8, 2017 Author Share Posted February 8, 2017 Most disturbing part of the article for me is this: "The comment prompted laughter from participants in the meeting." These are the people working in law enforcement. It worries me people take remarks like this lightly. If I was in the presence of a president and he said that I'd be horrified.
