McConnell chides mayors for response to destructive protests

Republican Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell chided some big-city mayors Tuesday for showing a reluctance to “enforce the law" when ongoing protests turn destructive. The Kentucky Republican also said police agencies deserve respect, but acknowledged there are “a few bad apples" in their ranks who need to be dealt with when “police misbehavior" occurs. McConnell, who is seeking a seventh term in the November election, spoke about protests after receiving an endorsement from the Kentucky Fraternal Order of Police.
