Several San Antonio police officers who wore Republican presidential nominee Donald Trumps Make America Great Again hats during his stop in Texas on Tuesday face discipline for violating a policy against endorsing a candidate while on duty, the police chief said.
More than a dozen officers in uniform wore the red caps with Trumps slogan as they stood with the candidate at an airport, in a video posted on Trumps Twitter page.
San Antonio Mayor Ivy Taylor later said on Facebook she was deeply disappointed by the display and Police Chief William McManus said in a statement the officers showed poor judgment.
I expect them to know better than to give the appearance of endorsing a candidate while on duty and in uniform, regardless of the political campaign or the candidate, McManus said.
