Indeed. We all know that Hillary won the popular vote from the millions of illegals who voted in California.

You simply verify this is true.

California, my home state, is going to get hurt playing this game of Chicken.

Well, if Moonbeam signs the bill on his desk declaring CA a sanctuary state sadly I believe it's going to get real ugly in CA real,real quick...
I do believe Trump will use CA as an example given how much media attention they are bringing on themselves.
Glad I moved out is all I can say...

They are not "undocumented residents".

They are Illegal Aliens. as in they are here illegally and breaking US laws such as using Social Security accounts that don't belong to them.

[quote=18Montclair;47089516]And this is fitting.

First off, he is threatening to defund cities that all pay wayyy more than their fair share in taxes in the first place. To threaten them is essentially biting the hand that feeds you.

Secondly, he has already walked back much of his rhetoric regarding mass deportations-now he is saying that it's only criminals which we agree with but not minor things like parking tickets.

Thirdly, this President's unpredictable tempermant means that we must build up a strong defense like legal challenges and ultimately threats of defunding of our own.

With California's 'sanctuary cities,' Trump might be starting a fight he can't win - LA Times

And now that Illinois is proposing legislation that will essentially make it the 2nd 'sanctuary' state after California, it's important that these cities and states be unified in their dediance and their resistance.[/quote]


Agreed- and to all policemen out there- if they want you to be chasing illegals-- better ask for AGENT'S PAY, training, education and so forth- or you will find your self in a pickle of lawsuits!

And nobody takes such argument seriously.

Leftists hate being ignored.
