Trump: ‘Stop & Frisk’ to End Black Crime
During a pre-taped “core black issues” town-hall interview with Sean Hannity on Fox News, Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump revealed Wednesday that he would like to see “stop-and-frisk” policing enacted nationwide as a way to end violence in black communities.
