Wrong. He can’t cutoff findings to cities that are not sanctuary cities. No different than states not receiving federal transportation funds if certain requirements are not met.
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?
What I'm suggesting then is that it should be applied equally across all Sanctuary cities and states, not picking and choosing individual targets. There's too much opportunity for abuse. I know you guys will positively freak out when, say, Pres. Bernie Sanders cuts off Federal funding to Omaha, Nebraska because it didn't support his socialized medicine program or because it passed an anti-immigrant law.
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'm from the San Francisco Bay Area and I think it's great that they are cutting this city off. I hope the city goes bankrupt. Plus isn't there a bill being passed that allows victims and their families to sue the city if an illegal has committed a crime against them, since the city didn't turn them over to ICE to be deported? 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.

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.

Glad Trump is keeping his promises. THAT alone got to be a valid reason for a second term.
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.

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.
Did it though? My concern is about the potential abuse of power, not the sanctuary city status. But you missed that.
To be a sanctuary city is an abuse of power !!! You missed that !!!
