It's not the Purge

Trump recently said that to reduce crime, we need just one day when cops were allowed to really cut loose (because that's what's really wrong in our country: too many restrictions on the police). Just one really rough day, he says. After that, word will get around, and there won't be any more problems.
Commentary seems to focus on how Trump is wanting to implement the Purge. But the Purge is about EVERYONE getting to do whatever they want for a day without consequence. What he's suggesting is that it should be just the authorities. What he's really suggesting is Kristallnacht.
And as with all of his really frightening suggestions, he's very sincere about this.
