Brave Sir Booker Says Illegal Aliens Make Sanctuary Cities Less Safe

It really is hilarious how Trump can send a tweet or two, maybe make a quick announcement, and Democrats rush to tell us how sanctuary jurisdictions are bad things and that they don’t actually want a ton of illegal aliens in them

But you guys keep telling us that mass uncontrolled immigration makes cities safer (in addition to raising everyone’s wages). How dare you suggest, @CoryBooker, that it might be a problem! Racist! https://t.co/VQlcdDeQ3r

From the article

Democratic presidential candidate Senator Cory Booker, of New Jersey, accused President Trump of trying to incite anger and divide Americans with his threat to release undocumented immigrants from the border into sanctuary cities. CBS News’ “Face the Nation” moderator Margaret Brennan asked Booker whether the president’s threat was an empty one — whether he was, perhaps, creating friction in order to jumpstart a Congress that has not acted on immigration.

“You say ‘friction’ — I say he’s trying to pit Americans against each other and make us less safe,” Booker told Brennan in an interview following his kick-off presidential campaign rally on Saturday in his hometown of Newark, a sanctuary city.

So, if Trump sent illegal aliens to sanctuary jurisdictions, it would make them less safe? Huh. Who would have thought it! Excitable Rahm Emanuel, mayor of Chicago, has declared that all of America is a sanctuary. Then there’s TDS infused Cher

I Understand Helping struggling Immigrants,but MY CITY (Los Angeles) ISNT TAKING CARE OF ITS OWN.WHAT ABOUT THE 50,000+🇺🇸Citizens WHO LIVE ON THE STREETS.PPL WHO LIVE BELOW POVERTY LINE,& HUNGRY? If My State Can’t Take Care of Its Own(Many Are VETS)How Can it Take Care Of More

Huh, that sounds rather like what Conservatives have been saying, that we should take care of our own first. Welcome to MAGA Country, Cher.

But, wait, here’s one that will give you “WTF” face all day

Trump revived attacks on sanctuary cities to distract from Mueller report release: report

President Trump reportedly publicly revived an earlier proposal to release migrants in sanctuary cities in part to distract from lingering questions about special counsel Robert Mueller’s report, according to The New York Times.

Shortly after news broke that the administration had rejected the idea, Trump sent a series of tweets claiming it was still being considered. Trump has deliberately escalated his language to enliven his base since the Mueller investigation’s conclusion, according to the Times.

Once Attorney General William Barr delivers the redacted report, the White House reportedly plans to have aides speed-read it, skipping all sections related to potential criminal conspiracy and reading only the section on why Mueller was unable to determine whether Trump obstructed justice.

First, the NYT doesn’t say that. Second, it’s always amusing when Democrats trot out the “distraction” meme, because it means they are losing, and losing badly. Why won’t all these illegal alien loving jurisdictions take illegals?
