Trump threatens to dump illegal migrants into Sanctuary Cities to punish congressional foes for inaction on the border...

but wouldn't that hurt him more than help him?

It wasn't too long ago that he was against sanctuary cities claiming they violate federal law, now it appears he's for them. Not only that, but his promise to protect the innocent Americans from the crime thirsty illegals by imposing his immigration policies to keep them out, now he threatens to release them.

@JT123 How awful for Democrats not to support the use of women and children as pawns in a sick Republican game.

@JT123

Funny how the Republicans and Trump are so hypocritical when it comes to illegal immigrants. First they call them violent criminals, thugs and rapist who harm thousands of Americans now they're okay with Trump letting them free to do harm to fellow Americans as punishment.

@windinhishair Right and the democrats haven't used them as pawns from day one? Wake up

@SW-User You still have that remark from 3 years ago twisted. He never called them that. He said They send those people here, which the clearly have for decades. (The crime cities are full of them)
SW-User
@JT123 He stated that mexico sends their worst. They send rapist, thugs and criminals into the states. And now he wants to round them all up and send them into sanctuary cities to do harm to Americans that he swore to protect.

@SW-User Who do you think lives in those Sanctuary cities now?
SW-User
@JT123 Migrants.

Edit: Plus, why release undocumented immigrants back into America if Trump said America is full? He makes no sense at all.
JT123 · M
@SW-User Wrong! Illegal Criminals who are protected by our democrat politicians! You clearly believe the people coming here are bad people, so You should be in full support of a wall and protecting our border.
SW-User
@JT123 Yet Trump ignores his duties a president to deport any illegal immigrants captured by law enforcement. He would rather have them captured and released back into America. In that case, Trump doesn't mind illegal immigrants being here if he wants to throw them back into the country. And this whole humanitarian crisis, national emergency crap was all for show.

You do know more people overstay on visas right? So a wall is not going to prevent that.

@SW-User I guess you haven't been paying attention in the last several months? He's tried everything to deport and keep them out but Pelosi and her clan keep putting road blocks up to bring more in! The democrats want them here. The democrats want them to take priority over legal immigrants and Americans. The democrats run the sanctuary cities. Let the democrats support them! Simple!!!

@JT123 Why don't we take all incarcerated serial killers who used guns and release them into Republican districts? With weapons. After all, Republicans support the second amendment, even for people on the Do Not Fly list. You want people with guns? You got 'em. And there is nothing wrong with using people for a political stunt, according to Republicans.

@JT123 Illegals are deported everyday. So how is Pelosi blocking that? What I have heard is, Trump wanted illegals to be able to stay in Mexico to seek asylum there rather that come to the U.S. to do the same, that action was blocked by a judge. Trump has constantly threatened to shut down the border between Mexico and the U.S. Anyone with a brain would know that it would have been a mistake to do so. And I'm glad SOMEONE talked to him about it since he backed off that threat.

Most mayors of sanctuary cities have said they are planning to welcome illegal aliens with open arms. You can’t reason with an extremely small minority of agenda driven haters here on SW. @JT123
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
The current law requires that illegal aliens who make it into the US and file for asylum be released within 20 days. Release into sanctuary cities who have voted that they want the and have taxpayers willing to pay for education, health care and other services is the only sensible option. @SW-User
SW-User
@jackjjackson Because Trump wants to send migrants to Sanctuary cities, then that destroys his argument that America is “full.” And that America can’t accept anymore migrants. Furthermore, doesn’t have an issue with migrants seeking asylum in the U.S. It also wasn’t too long ago when he was against migrants seeking asylum. But as long as it’s sending migrants in sanctuary cities with the purpose to harm democrats, he nor his supporters care about his contradictions.
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
You can repeat your fantasy 100 more times but it still doesn’t make it true. The readers know that what I’ve written is the factual truth and that you like windbag are a liberally lying liberal that thinks people are stupid and you know better and fool them. Wrong. @SW-User
SW-User
@jackjjackson
Then can you explain to me exactly what Trump’s twitter post is about? Because it seems to me that he wants law enforcement to apprehend illegals and send them into sanctuary cities. So that whole America is “full” was a lie.

Edit: Trump is so full of contradictions. But of course as long as he attacks those that he and republicans hate (democrats) then they don’t care about those contradictions.

jackjjackson · 61-69, M
Sure. Sanctuary cities and liberally lying liberals believe that illegal aliens should be admitted at record pace. Who is the President to not accommodate sanctuary cities.

However it appears moot. This just in:

The 9th District Court of Appeals just approved President Trump's plan to require aliens to wait in Mexico for approval before entering the US. No more releasing into the US.

(Someone has been appointing sane judges to the 9th Circuit)

@jackjjackson So then what’s the point of sending illegals to liberal cities since Trump got his wish then? Note: he still wants to send illegals into liberal cities to “punish them.”
SW-User
@jackjjackson And about that reply you sent me about the requirement for illegals to stay in Mexico. It’s temporary, so the appeals court will consider next week whether to extend that stay — and allow the Trump administration policy to remain in effect for longer.
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
How about that. The President has options. So now you’re saying that illegal aliens should stay OUT until they go through the legal process successfully? @SW-User
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
That’s why all options should remain on the table. @SW-User
SW-User
@jackjjackson I’m not saying that. You intentionally left out the rest of that report making it seem like it was not temporary, once I found the whole story, i just filled in the blanks.
SW-User
@jackjjackson And yet Trump still wants to round up illegals into liberal cities. And supporters like you want it to happen.
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
Where are you getting the term “round up”? The illegal aliens are all together at the border. More liberally lying liberal doubletalk. @SW-User
