Subject:* Travel pool #5 - Trump begins + crowd comments

Trump took the stage at 1:43 theOrange County Convention Center for remarks at the International Association of Chiefs of Police Annual Convention. Remarks are open press.

Pool spoke to a few people in the crowd before Trump began speaking. Their comments are below:

_Kevin Huddle, age 42, police officer in Santa Barbara CA_

“Why do you support Trump?”

I like that he supports law enforcement and supports the military. And hes fiscally conservative

“How does he support you?”

He supports us financially as well as whenever theres a tragedy hes there for us

“Is there anything hes done that you dont support?”

I dont really follow politics

_Shawn OGrady, 53, police officer in Santa Barbara CA _

“Why do you support Trump?”

He supports us, whenever theres an issue affecting law enforcement hes right out there in front of it giving us praise

“Anything you dont support?”

I dont like that he uses Twitter so much, but I guess thats his shtick, thats how he got elected

_James Roe, post instructor and director of north america sales for Brainchip, San Diego CA_

“Why do you support Trump?”

He gave our military the budget they needed

“Anything you dont like that hes doing related to law enforcement or military?”

Not in that realm, no

“How about outside that realm?”

I live in San Diego so I see whats happening with the sanctuary cities and families being torn apart and I dont exactly approve of that

_Aaron Jimenez, police chief in St. Ann, Missouri_

“Why do you support Trump?”

I like his policies and what hes done for law enforcement. [paraphrasing: Said he could feel Trumps support for law enforcement more than past presidents]

“How does he make you feel that support?”

By his comments, things that hes said. When people start attacking the police I dont think hes attacked the police or said anything negative
