Like It's Always Been, But Worse

The question you could ask in the wake of the appalling video that shows a Salt Lake City cop assaulting and illegally arresting a nurse who was correctly stopping him from taking a blood sample from an unconscious patient is whether this is part of the "law and order" thing that Trump talks about. After all, he joked about how police should be able to rough up suspects in his Long Island speech, and he reversed the demilitarization of local police forces despite Ferguson. Plus, Arpaio. Yeah, there's a tendency to blame Trump for everything, but when he plays the "Law and Order" card, is that a dog whistle to cops to do stuff like this? (Salt Lake Tribune)
