Where did they get that idea? From the politicians who court and protect them? Most people don’t realize this, but police departments are supposed to have an updated policy and procedures manual to cover things like, oh, I don’t know, chokeholds — in order to get a lower rate on liability coverage. But police departments often refuse to update (and the politicians look the other way) because you actually can’t hold a cop personally liable for abusing a suspect if he was never specifically told not to do the thing he did. So the manual in most cities is just one big loophole.
That’s why I don’t want to hear cops whining about how oppressed they are for the rare times they’re held accountable:

Both Biden and Trump often misspeak and tell untruths.

Both agree that US policy and Israeli policy relating to the Middle East should be exactly the same.
Both men support a bloated and very dangerous military budget.
And on it goes.
The Democratic Party needs an antidote to Trump, not an old, white, guy who often sounds and thinks like Trump.
