Trump to Join Wake Honoring Slain NYPD Officer as Biden Attends Fundraiser

Simon Kent 28 Mar 2024

Former President Donald Trump will join Thursday’s wake of a New York City police officer gunned down in the line of duty as the presumed Republican 2024 candidate makes crime in Democrat cities a focus of his third tilt at the White House.

As Trump honors the fallen, President Joe Biden will also be in New York attending a fundraiser with Democratic ex-presidents Bill Clinton and Barack Obama.

AP reports the visitation for Officer Jonathan Diller, who was fatally shot during a traffic stop on Monday, will be held in suburban Massapequa.

Police said 31-year-old Diller was shot below his bulletproof vest while approaching an illegally parked car in Queens.



Diller, who was married and had a 1-year-old son, was rushed to a hospital where he died.

Trump has long deplored crime in heavily Democrat-run cities and wants to immunize police officers from lawsuits for potential misconduct as they tackle the problem.

Trump’s campaign did not offer more details about his appearance or whether he planned to speak.

“President Trump is moved by the invitation to join NYPD Officer Jonathan Diller’s family and colleagues as they deal with his senseless and tragic death,” Trump campaign spokesperson Karoline Leavitt said in a statement.

Trump calling the widow and paying off her mortgage was decent, I'll give him credit for that.  I think he does love New York City, after all is said and done.


Gimme a break!   His love isn't limited to just New York City. 

That said, he completely out-maneuvered Tunnell to Towers Foundation on this.

I'll give kudos to DJT, for participating,  but the problem is, is his mouth.  If he turns this into a campaign rally, or says something really dumb, this will backfire badly.

I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

It would behoove trump to let his actions speak louder than his words.  However, most times, he gets the order of those two mixed up.

@Timber Rattler   @catfish1957

???   

You think you're showing deference... finally give President Trump kudos for something he did?  Is this supposed to show all of us how you give credit where credit is due while the rest of the time you savage him? Because that's certainly how it comes across.

You don't think T2T wouldn't have tripped over themselves paying off the widow's mortgage?  They would have made a commercial about it.  All non-profits have other agendas...and yes, I know that 100% of the donations are going to the families of the fallen.

President Trump doing this without fanfare, 7 months from the Election is calculated.  It's also brilliant.

It's also the reason he insists on showing up in person to his court hearings instead of just sending his lawyers.

A smile and a wave to the crowd caught in a photo deflates the entire news cycle at that moment.

“While she was in his office, the  Port Authority president said there was a call for her. It was Trump.
A few minutes after that she got a call from Tunnel To Towers and they are paying off her mortgage.”

Am I missing something here? The tweet leads me to believe that T2T paid off the mortgage. Trump called first. T2T called after Trump and paid the money.

The X post makes zero sense.   Poorly composed and lacking any real fact.

@mystery-ak

Not at all.  He's the master of the soundbite.  There's nobody better.

His concern and love for the family and Americans is genuine...and I think you have a lot of nerve coming out and challenging me...of all people.

Nobody on this forum loves Donald Trump more than I do.  NOBODY!

But I also recognize the corner in which he paints the adversarial media and Trump haters across the land by doing this.

Sounds like T2T and Barstool are donating the money. Nothing about DJT doing that. It was very kind of him to get in touch with the family.

NYPD Tells City Council to Stay Away From Slain Officer's Funeral
Quote
Earlier today, Karen wrote about Donald Trump's plans to attend the funeral of NYPD Officer Jonathan Diller and mourn with his family.

Officer Diller was shot and killed by Guy Rivera, a career criminal with 21 prior arrests for assault and drug crimes. Rivera was repeatedly released through New York City's revolving door that passes for a legal system.

Attending the funeral is a natural call for Trump to make as he continues to push for enhancements to law enforcement and support for the police. There are some other notable politicians who probably won't be at the funeral however, provided they take the advice of the NYPD. The New York City Sergeants Benevolent Association has issued a warning to the City Council to stay away from the funeral if they know what's good for them.

They are blaming the people responsible for kneecapping the police for Officer Diller's death, along with so many other New Yorkers who have been injured or killed by career criminals who are never held accountable for their crimes. ...

@DCPatriot

This event has two very different components to it.......

1. The fact that DJT paid off her mortgage is an incredibly generous gesture, and deserves huge accolades.

2. but you know when he is "winging" it, he can be his own worst enemy.  If he shows any political proclivity at all at this wake, it will come across as pandering and opportunistic.  Don't think of this as criticism, but  a strong suggestion of proper PR.

Good for Trump.  Prayers up for the family.

He will be speaking to the press after the service.   Lets see if he pisses away all the good will from the T2T collaboration by saying something stupid as shit.
