Governor Newsom already offered California as "a sanctuary to all who seek it." Any and all illegal aliens. Take him up on his offer. Send them there. Win/win! California gets what they wanted and that for which they voted, and the crushing burdens are removed from the other southern US border cities/states.

My guess....Pelosi wants them dumped in TX hoping to change the laws where they can vote hoping to turn TX blue. Otherwise, she'd jump at the chance.....

They should send them to Texas and Florida......the business people in these places are looking for MORE help and they don't do E-Verify. Send 'em - please!

California elected Newsom. He promised sanctuary in California to all illegal aliens who seek it.

Didn't the British try something like this when they imposed their army on the homes of the citizens of Boston, both before and after during the American Revolution? Seems to me there's something in the Declaration of Independence about just that, among the long list of the crimes of the king.

That went down real well, didn't it?

Looks like Trump fancies himself another King George III.

Actually, that may not be too far-fetched a comparison.

Kudos to Trump for making the left look not only stupid but also like hypocrites. They want illegals pouring across the border but they don't want them in their districts.

Trump has made no bones about terming illegal immigrants and sanctuary seekers dangerous and violent criminals, who are prone to attack the most vulnerable. it appears that many here would agree with that assessment.

Yet Trump proposes illegally releasing these "criminals" on innocent citizens of major American cities.

Right. And he sees nothing wrong with that notion.

The right-wingers' reactions here are kinda like Trump's everchanging, inconsistent and extremely dishonest and hypocritical comments about his views of Wikileaks. Never mind that you can't have it both ways: cheering for releasing illegals into sanctuary cities, yet claiming to care about the well-being of those American citizens who live in said cities and who had nothing whatsoever to do with their cities being named as sanctuary cities.

Vengeance would seem to be the driving factor behind Trump's desire to send illegals into said cities - vengeance against those who declared them sanctuaries. Any resulting civilian injuries are just collateral damage, it seems.

Yet Trump claims these same illegals are dangerous criminals - while he proposes putting them into closer contact with the vulnerable, whom he also claims to care about enormously.

Which is it, Mr. Trump? If you care so much about the well-being of Americans, why do you want to put them in close proximity of injury or death at the hands of those whom you've termed dangerous criminals?

Do you think Texas doesn't have MUCH more than their statistical fair share of illegal immigrants already?

We're a border state.

And don't have any sanctuary cities.

You wouldn't be "sending" them here, but rather, leaving them here, which is what's being done currently anyway.
