Fresh off his victory of Judge Brett Kavanaugh's confirmation to the Supreme Court, President Trump doubled-down on his commitment to being the "law and order" president by suggesting Chicago could curtail gun violence by using "stop and frisk" — the famous New York law enabling officers to temporarily detain, question, and frisk civilians upon "reasonable suspicion."
Speaking before law enforcement officials at a convention for the International Association of Chiefs of Police, the president said he will direct Attorney General Jeff Sessions to aid Chicago in the fight against gun violence.
"We want to straighten it out and straighten it out fast. There's no reason for what’s going on there," Trump said, adding that Chicago should "strongly consider stop and frisk."
"It works, and it was meant for problems like Chicago," Trump said. "And Rudy Giuliani, when he was mayor of New York City, had a very strong program of stop and frisk and it went from an unacceptably dangerous city to one of the safest cities in the country and, I think, the safest big city in the country. So it works. Gotta be properly applied, but stop and frisk works."
