‘The Presidential oath, which the framers of the Fourteenth Amendment surely knew, requires the President to swear to ‘preserve, protect and defend’ the Constitution — not to ‘support’ the Constitution,’ read a filing from the former president’s attorneys
This is like cops saying they no obligation to serve and protect.
Unfortunately, that statement has been successfully argued in court.

This is actually nothing like that.
Besides what @[email protected] pointed out, “To Protect and to Serve” is just a motto, specifically the LAPD’s (and other forces have also adopted this). Police aren’t public protectors, their job is just to enforce the law (and a lot struggle with that).
Don’t kid yourself. Their job is to protect wealthy peoples property.
