Where is New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio — a 2020 Democratic candidate — on this issue?
When uniformed police officers in the Big Apple are mocked and harassed — and even have water thrown on them by people who are rudely laughing and making fun of them — where’s the mayor to stand up for them?
That would “never happen” when he was mayor of the city, said Rudy Giuliani, attorney for President Donald Trump, on “The Ingraham Angle” on Fox News on Monday night.
“It’s disgusting, embarrassing. There’s lawlessness around here now.”
Host Laura Ingraham called the recent actions against the police officers “disgraceful” and called the current mayor “pathetic.”
“Everybody’s outraged,” an NYPD source said, as The New York Post reported earlier today.
“It’s disgusting, embarrassing. There’s lawlessness around here now.”
Check out the video in the tweets below and see for yourself.
And brace yourself — these incidents (there were two separate ones, apparently) are a terrible example of disrespect, and far worse, toward those who risk their lives for the safety and well being of the public every day.
These men have families.
These men have one of the toughest jobs in the country.
These men deserve far better than this.
These men are owed apologies.

“To our friends in New York, if you don’t take care of your cops, shame on you,” said Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) on “The Ingraham Angle” on Monday evening.
