Firefighters Refuse To Stay Silent, Put It All On The Line For Trump Throughout his campaign, President-elect Donald Trump earned a reputation as the law and order candidate. With promises to protect those who work each day to keep our country safe, its no wonder that he won the support of police officers and firefighters by a landslide. This was on full display yesterday morning, as Trump was preparing to leave New Yorks La Guardia airport to head to Washington D.C. for meetings with President Barack Obama and congressional leaders in the White House. According to reports, as Trumps plane taxied toward the runway, it traveled underneath an arch of cascading water shot into the air by a pair of Port Authority fire trucks. Other firefighters were spotted waving at the plane as it passed. The tradition of a water cannon salute is typically reserved for ceremonial purposes. Historically, it has been used at airports to mark important occasions like the retirement of senior pilots and air traffic controllers. It is an immense display of respect. Vice President-elect Mike Pence received a similar salute on his own plane, which followed Trumps to D.C. What do you think? Are you ready for Trump to be in the White House?
