A handful of mayors in America have a message for blustery billionaire Donald Trump: Stay out of my city.
Following the Republican presidential front-runner's controversial comments Monday that he would bar Muslims from entering the United States, a growing list of city officials say they would like to enforce their own border ban on Trump.
In a statement, Trump said "large segments" of people who practice Islam have a "great hatred toward Americans" -- and suggested a "complete shutdown" of Muslims coming stateside.
While the city officials acknowledged that they can't legally prevent Trump from traveling into their communities, they joined a backlash against him. Both Republican and Democrat leaders and presidential candidates have denounced his proposal as anti-American.
Here are cities where Trump wouldn't be allowed in if their mayors had their way:

St. Petersburg, Florida
Philadelphia
New York City (How the heck do you ban a resident?)
The clowns keep destroying themselves.

(f) Suspension of entry or imposition of restrictions by President
Whenever the President finds that the entry of any aliens or of any
class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the
interests of the United States, he may by proclamation, and for such
period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or
any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants, or impose on the
entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate. Whenever
the Attorney General finds that a commercial airline has failed to
comply with regulations of the Attorney General relating to requirements
of airlines for the detection of fraudulent documents used by
passengers traveling to the United States (including the training of
personnel in such detection), the Attorney General may suspend the entry
of some or all aliens transported to the United States by such airline.
Can someone say, “Macy’s”?
No new Trump golf courses or hotels for St Petersburg, I see. lol
DOH! Seems like the tolerant left’s intolerant slip is showing. Self righteous assclowns.
Perhaps, after the election, the most important part of the citizenry will bodily remove these asshats from their ill-gotten offices.
So they agree with the idea in Principle, it's just that they want to decide who gets excluded. That just about sums them up, doesn't it?
These mayors do not OWN those cities.
Typical political grand-standing.
By what legal theory can a mayor hope to ban a citizen from entry to the city?Or do they think that they’re emperors?
In the case of Bloomberg,he may think just that.
Ding Ding Ding! We have a winner!
What is the Mudslime population of those cities?
How many of the Mudslimes are on welfare?
How many of those mayors owe the election to Mudslimes?
How many of those mayors get campaign dollars from CAIR or other middle eastern sources?
How about banning headchoppers and their supporters instead of people who say something about them?
Irony is whacking these mayors with a two by four and they are oblivious to it.
Well,they think they do-especially New York.
These idiot mayors better get ready for some serious payback when Trump is POTUS.
. . . which they decidedly don't.
What’s a macys?
My first thought also.
Jimmy Carter banned Iranians from coming to the U S when they he’d our hostages. The Democrat House and Senate approved it. It is a power the president has in the Constitution. Why are the Republican candidates so stupid?
haha haha You outed them!
