McNesby, who was a member of a three person committee who made the recommendation to the national organization on their choice, told Dom Giordano on Talk Radio 1210 WPHT that the Clinton campaign showed no interest in winning their support.
"They didn't care. Their attitude, then, back in July, during the DNC, was they were going to win this thing anyway, so who cares? Now, I think the tides have turned a little bit and she's on her heels. As many times as we've tried to...have it a fair process and an open process, the emails back were that they're not interested and no thanks. Just snide things like that."

He stated his local chapter will heed the recommendation for Trump, who he met with personally in New York.
"We're falling in line with the national FOP and, basically, she just disregarded and blew the police off. You can't go in and expect to get respect when you didn't give it to us. We gave a very fair process, we thought. We put out a questionnaire and she absolutely refused...outright refused, with a nasty campaign rebuttal to why she wouldn't. Simple as that, we went in and we participated with the candidate that cooperated. He filled it out. We met with him."
