Not going to translate into a positive visual for the GOP going into the mid-term elections.

“ Not going to translate into a positive visual for the GOP going into the mid-term elections.”

I don’t see that as an issue. You think Republican voters want Trump to fund sanctuary cities w federal funding and … what?

Anyway, Trump is not looking at the midterms in any conventional way.

I live in a Democrat enclave. There are two types: the radical, multi-colored peacocks with metal in their faces and every square inch of skin covered in tats (that’s the females) and the ones who are embarrassed to be democrats because of the first type. I’m friends with several Type II Dems. They get it. They see the waste, fraud and abuse. They see their party has no path other than Hate Trump. They see the jobs lost to foreigners (we’re in Raleigh, so we can’t hit a short iron without hitting an Indian, Chinese or Korean) and they are just about over it. The only platforms keeping them from voting GOP is abortion, weed and LGB stuff. They’re dropping the TQs. It’s still a big divide, but it’s more narrow than some might think.

The party in power always loses in the midterms, remember? Stop being more afraid of optics and winning than doing the logical thing. We have to beat these lunatics or we won’t have a country much longer.

Those cities will be voting blue anyway. No loss.

And our base will be encouraged.
