Boy, have you missed the mark on this one.
I don't think so. The cities/states he has a conflict with are typically the same that have Sanctuary laws. But he can pick and choose which ones he goes after. Ergo, CoI and abuse of power.

There is no abuse of power by going after sanctuary cities. Guess which party controls those cities and states?

To clarify: I'm opposed to my state's Sanctuary law. I just don't trust DJT.
Is Sanders socialized medicine program a law? Who's anti-"immigrant?

I hope that bill passes too. I'm tired of seeing Americans and those who are in this country legally being victimized by illegals who are in this country illegally but have been protected by these such cities. I'd love nothing more then to see San Francisco, among other big cities, go completely bankrupt, because of this. Gavin Newsome needs to be removed/relieved of duties from office as well.
And I'm from NY and I also think it's great.

To clarify yet again: I mean selected cities among the sanctuary cities, plus, in thinking about it, selected programs that DJT doesn't like. AoP. I expect we'll be revisiting this once we see what gets cut and to whom.

Agreed with above poster saying we need to go one step further and prosecute these City Counsel Members/Mayors/Governors/Sheriff that created these laws and go against protecting the local Citizens.

Would love to see Mayor Adler and Sheriff Hernandez, here in Austin, put in jail for their traitorous policies to protect these Illegals.
Add De Blasio to that wish list.

As I said, every sanctuary city is a Democrat held one so what's your point? Stay on topic please. This is about Trump cutting funds to sanctuary cities, nothing more and nothing less and he is doing so because they are protecting criminal aliens. Making up other scenarios that are unfounded to defend illegal aliens and to object to cracking down on those who protect them just doesn't cut it! It's mere desperation on your part.
