President Donald Trump and the White House do not support mayors reallocating police funding to other programs, said a spokesperson and the president on Monday.

“There won’t be defunding. There won’t be dismantling of our police. There’s not going to be any disbanding of our police,” Trump said, adding that police have “been letting us live in peace and we want to make sure we don’t have any bad actors in there.”
