^ not that it really matters (at the moment) as Texas isn't a swing state but go right ahead and if Trump wins you 'basically' have no say or complaints in not just expanded S&F policies but in none of the key potential Supreme court rulings down the road. Rulings that could have an affect on you and your kids for 20, 30, or even 40 yrs down the road.One major problem, there isn't a federal stop and frisk policy. Thus, there can't be an expanded S&F policy with Trump. You can certainly ding him for making an inaccurate statement, but he can't commandeer the police power to the federal government, nor can he use the state police power to enforce his desires. It is the same reason Obama didn't "end" stop and frisk or even attempt to. He created some odd task force on 21st century policing, which has no power but to consume funds and write reports. But if you write him in as your vote for mayor of Houston, your point will be valid for Houston only. Since this is not a mayoral election year, your write-in vote will be ineffective though.
