I wish you weren't getting downvoted because I was wondering the same, and I'm happy someone asked so that I could learn the answer.

Seconded. Us non-Americans watching what's going on can't be expected to know something an unremarkable American cop said 50 years ago.

Is it such a well known phrase among Americans or something that most people just learned was a thing?

Even in the US it wasn't well known - most people just learned it was a thing.

I was the one who asked the question and I've lived in the US all my life. I had never heard the phrase or knew that Trump said it until this conversation just now.

We didn’t need to know it to read it as inherently racist. If you can’t interpret that, it’s a problem with reading comprehension.
