Why Trump’s Sanctuary City Plan has Democrats so Enraged
DB Daily Update ^ | David Blackmon

Posted on 04/13/2019 5:36:18 AM PDT by EyesOfTX

Today’s Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends)

Prepare for exploding Democrat heads all weekend long. – Smelling a golden opportunity handed to him by the Washington Post yesterday to keep an issue very favorable to him alive at the top of the news cycle this weekend, President Donald Trump (I never tire of typing those three glorious words) continued to push a plan to place all these tens of thousands of illegal aliens invading our Southern border into Democrat-run sanctuary cities with this tweet late Friday evening:

Donald J. Trump ✔ @realDonaldTrump If the Radical Left Democrats all of a sudden don’t want the Illegal Migrants in their Sanctuary Cities (no more open arms), why should others be expected to take them into their communities? Go home and come into our Country legally and through a system of Merit!

Given the left’s obsession with the President’s Twitter account, this single message alone most likely ensures that this topic will be first up on every Sunday morning fake news program. Regardless of how viciously the liberal talking heads attack President Trump on the issue, this will in fact amount to about five hours of free, favorable air time for the President and cause him to rise in the polls as a result. President Trump knows this, I know this, you know this, but it seems as if the vapid, TDS-enraged Democrats and their media co-conspirators will never figure it all out. I’m cool with that.

It’s important to understand why the Democrats and the fake news media are so enraged by this plan. The President may or may not be serious about it – that remains up in the air – but that really doesn’t much matter in the grand scheme of things. From the perspective of both President Trump and the Democrat leadership, it’s the simple fact of having the public debate over this idea that really matters, for a couple of big reasons.

I discussed one reason in last night’s Evening Campaign Update: The Democrats hate being forced to engage in this public discussion for the simple fact that it exposes the ultimate end game of their “sanctuary city” sham. Democrat mayors in Democrat-run cities from coast to coast have spent the last several years refusing to cooperate with ICE and other federal law enforcement agencies in a very organized effort to protect criminal illegal aliens who they view as ripe prospects for illegal voting in the near term. In the longer term, the Democrats hope these illegals will ultimately receive some sort of blanket amnesty and become a big, new voting bloc for their party.

Democrats don’t care if these criminal aliens are murderers or rapists – they truly don’t care. All they see and care about is potential votes, whether legal or illegal, because the overriding goal of the Democrat Party since the elevation of the Clintons has been simple: The acquisition and maintenance of political power.

Their problem with this public debate is that the President’s proposal makes all kinds of sense to anyone who is able to reason logically. This of course excludes mind-numbed Democrat voters, but they only make up about a third of the adult population. What frightens the Democrats and media so much is that independent voters are by and large able to reason logically, so when they hear this proposal, most of them think, “Ok, makes sense to me.” They then marvel that any Democrat politician, like San Fran Nan, whose own home city has been protecting murderers and rapists for over a decade now, would oppose it.

Oh, my, Democrat’s can’t have that, now, can they?

All of which leads to the second reason why the Democrats are so enraged by this plan: Because it negates their own long-term plan for placement of millions of illegal aliens into Republican and/or battleground states.

Starting in the Clinton Administration, the Democrat plan has been to keep as many illegals as possible in border “red” states like Texas and Arizona, so that when their longed-for amnesty comes about, those “red” states will suddenly turn into “blue” states. During the Obama years, that plan was broadened to include putting thousands of illegals onto planes and buses and shipping them to other “red” or borderline states like Michigan, Ohio, North Carolina, Colorado and Wisconsin for the same political ends.

They have almost gotten to critical mass now at which a blanket amnesty would in fact render all of those states – with the possible exception of Texas – as permanent Democrat states, making it virtually impossible for the GOP to ever elect another president.

This has been the long-term plan of the Democrat Party for a quarter of a century now. They cannot possibly conduct an honest public debate on the merits, so their immediate response is what we have seen: Have national Dems like Pelosi and Schumer and Beto and Mayor Pete demonize the President for his supposed “cruelty” in using all of these “innocent” illegals as “political pawns”, while the Democrat mayors of those sanctuary cities issue pious statements claiming that they would welcome such an influx into their already bankrupt towns as they pray to whatever god they might worship that it never happens.

Apparently, when President Trump broached this concept at a recent White House meeting a few weeks ago, it was quickly scuttled by then-Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen and her department’s lawyers. Nielsen simply lacked the intestinal fortitude to do what is necessary to stem this border invasion.

Kevin MacAleenan is now the acting Secretary of DHS. We may well find out very soon whether or not he has the stomach for the battle or not. This plan makes all kinds of good sense – which is why the Democrats and media are so outraged by it – and should be pursued by the President and his Administration in a very public and aggressive way.

Fill those sanctuary cities up with these invaders, Mr. Trump. Let the Democrats take full responsibility for their irrational sanctuary rhetoric. It will be a good lesson for all concerned.

That is all.

Great article encapsulating the anti-American plan and having them swallow their hypocrisy.

This does not bother me to see happen except for a couple of drawbacks.

First, the right thing to do is enforce laws that are on the book. Any harboring of illegals by anyone should be dealt with by the laws that are on the books. It once again says that we do not have the balls in DC to enforce our laws

Secondly, this furthers the balkanization of America and brings us closer to the inevitable, an all out war to win America back

Thirdly, it will only lead to an extended rush on the border where now illegals know for certain they will be bused off to large cities and States that will grant them the utopian they and their benefactors are offering. Will not aid in securing our borders.

He’s having fun with them. He knows they stay awake monitoring Trump’s twitter, and that they will obsess over every word. This is fun to watch.

The dems created “sanctuary cities” to evade federal law. Trump is letting them carry out their wishes.

Dump them in San Fransicko.

The only downside I can see is the fact that some real Americans are still living in some; or probably all of the blue states & they would certainly be affected by this, but they are already adversely affected in the red states where these illegals are anyway. Seems like a good plan to me if it can be implemented.

It is ALL about votes. Resettlement of illegal aliens in conservative communities destroys the voter base for conservatives. Placing illegals in liberal cities does nothing for their voter base BECAUSE of the electoral college. It's simple to understand.

Eartick,

Good points but I believe we have to force the issue down their throats now. No traction to get anything done anyway. One dem today was complaining about the “costs” of such a move. IMO, they walked here, they can walk to their new homes. First load should be right to Pelosi’s street.

One thing none of us should forget, this should have all been taken care of under that POS Ryan’s leadership in the House. He did NADA. I hope he rots in hell.

Lastly, the Feds thought nothing of invading the south over an issue in 1861. They also virtually invaded some states over a related issue in the 60’s over schooling (not to say they were wrong); when does the invasion begin today to enforce federal law??

Sounds like a solid plan to me!

This is all about turning Texas, Florida, and possibly Georgia Democrat by loading illegals into those states. They will never lose power if that happens.

The real observation is that it exposes them as the hypocrites they are.

They don’t “actually” want to be over run by these people, they just want everybody to think they’re saints who only care about he poor, down-trodden masses.

“the Democrat plan has been to keep as many illegals as possible in border “red” states like Texas and Arizona, so that when their longed-for amnesty comes about, those “red” states will suddenly turn into “blue” states.”

While many Republicans, pockets stuffed with cash from the Chamber of Corruption, did everything they could to help keep the flood coming.

I would think you would just utilize the exact same procedures Obama used!

I eagerly await the pious decisions forthcoming from the hypocrite federal judges!

It has happened in our traditionally Republican township and county. They have shipped in enough invader-voters to tip the balance in favor of the 'RATs.

If I may postulate a fourth;
If these illegals are counted in the next census, blue states will gain seats....

How does amnesty equate to votes?
It would have to be illegal voting unless they are citizens.
Is the idea that amnesty immediately makes them citizens?
If illegal voting is what the Dem are wanting to do, it seems to me that there are easier ways to do it.

Illegals have always been counted if they cooperated with the census.

California alone likely has at least an extra three Congressional seats due to illegals.

Yep. One other drawback: whatever happens with specific questions included on the census, fact remains that placing huge numbers of criminaliens into sanctuary cities will give them more Congressional clout, as they are counted, even as non-citizens.
