Exclusive — Donald J. Trump to San Francisco: Sanctuary Cities ‘Unacceptable,’ A ‘Disaster’ Creating ‘Safe-Haven for Criminals’

Donald J. Trump, the billionaire businessman and presumptive 2016 GOP presidential nominee, told Breitbart News that he is shocked that San Francisco’s local government would entertain the possibility of expanding its sanctuary status for illegal aliens after what happened to Kate Steinle last year.

“Sanctuary cities are a disaster,” Trump said when questioned. “They’re a safe-haven for criminals and people that should not have a safe-haven in many cases. It’s just unacceptable. We’ll be looking at sanctuary cities very hard.”

Trump’s comments came in an exclusive interview with Breitbart News in his office on the 26th floor of Trump Tower in Midtown, Manhattan last week. They come in response to efforts by far left progressive organizations in San Francisco to expand that city’s sanctuary city laws.

I give him credit for his ability to distill a problem.

He should give them 2 days warning once elected, just like they did on bathrooms.

The most important fact I gleaned from the above is that Trump will have interview sessions Breitbart reporters.

That’s huge, and one more reason why the imperiled lamestream media will see him as a threat to their rice bowls.

If he is elected, one of his first acts should be to mobilize the FBI and US Marshals to head off to SF, secure indictments, and arrest every pol who has supported sanctuary cities and charge them with mis prison of felony and conspiracy to avoid the laws and regulations of the US, also a felony.

Donald J. Trump to San Francisco: Sanctuary Cities ‘Unacceptable,’ A ‘Disaster’

President Trump should withhold every single cent of all Federal funds from "Sanctuary Cities" until they enforce all immigration law and clear their backlog of ignored violators.

Right. They give a phoney “citizenship” to non-citizens and obtain billions of dollars in free money for them, paid for by you and me.

Once Trump is sworn-in and begins rescinding Obama’s tyrannical EO’s, President Trump can start putting places like Frisco on notice that they are jeopardizing their federal funding by continuing with illegal policies such as harboring illegal aliens.
Let them put it before the 9th circus: “Trump won’t let us keep breaking federal law.”
Six months and counting until the worm begins to turn.

arrest every pol who has supported sanctuary cities

Your solution makes more sense than those who want to withhold funding from the city.

Withholding funding does nothing personally to the commies supporting crime.

Sending them to Prison will influence their successors.

Make the officials of these cities personally liable for harms done by illegals. Sue them personally into financial oblivion and chuck them into prison for suborning invasion.

There are dozens of sanctuary cities in this country. If I were president, I would cut off funding to the entire state that has a sanctuary city. The state has to be held accountable for illegal behavior.

That’s why I boted for him. He was the only one willing to even discuss illegal immigration in the beginning of the campaign. Without him, it would just be ignored. He made it ok for a few others to copy his stance, but without him they wouldn’t have had the courage to buck the establishment’s orders.

That will also create martyrs, or so they will think.

I’ll take my chances, I like your plan the best, it’s fast and it goes right to those responsible.
