Former President Donald Trump addressed mourners and the media outside of slain NYPD officer Jonathan Diller’s wake on Thursday, calling for the “toughening up” of law and order.

Diller’s alleged killer, Guy Rivera, had a lengthy rap sheet including 21 prior arrests.

“What happened is such a sad event,” Trump told reporters. “It’s happening all too often and we’re just not going to let it happen.”

Trump was among the hundreds who turned up to pay their respects to Diller at Massapequa Funeral Home on Long Island.

Diller, 31, left behind a 1-year-old son.

Visitation for family and friends is being held at the Massapequa Funeral Home at 4980 Merrick Road between 2 to 4 p.m. and 7 to 9 p.m. Thursday, followed by the same schedule Friday.
