Let's see, Trump controls allocation of funds (with GOP controlled congress) to those cities and can shut them off if they do not comply. And in return the cities can ... fund their own pet projects and welfare giveaways?

Some showdown.

Sanctuary cities are all about taxpayers’ money. Federal funds to schools are per capita (for each head). The more illegals in the schools, the more money the cities get. Same for federal assistance for medical, housing, and for feeding and clothing these illegals. Federal money for illegals is a major part of sanctuary cities’ budgets. City leaders are trying to protect the influx of taxpayers’ money.
