This is brilliant. Either they accept the problem or look like narcissistic virtue signalling fools.

Talk about creating your own lose-lose situation.

There is precedent. Obama was busing them to red states. In fact, that’s a large part of the reason the libs are inviting them to flood across our borders. They need them to vote for the democrat welfare state.

Save some for the fifth Congressional district in Minnesota.

That is Ilhan Omar's district. Illegals could only improve it.

This seems like an idea that could horribly backfire

Tweaking the Dims to outrage these days is as easy as tweaking Muslims to outrage.

EXCELLENT article by Sharyl Attkisson - she makes the case for what Trump is reported to be doing (sending illegals to sanctuary cities):

Sending immigrants to sanctuary cities has consequences — and that’s a good thing

https://thehill.com/opinion/immigration/438867-sending-immigrants-to-sanctuary-cities-has-consequences-and-thats-a-good

EXCERPTED:

Pro-illegal immigration:

Illegal immigrants are overwhelmingly good people fleeing bad circumstances in poverty-stricken, gang-ridden or war-torn countries. Illegal immigrants commit less crime per person than do U.S. citizens. Illegal immigrants pay taxes and are a net benefit to the economy. Illegal immigrants are needed for the U.S. workforce, and to do jobs that Americans are unwilling to do. They do not pose health risks. Illegal immigration is not the cause of our drug problems and we should not worry about human trafficking.

Anti-illegal immigration:

Some illegal immigrants are terrible people. Illegal immigrants commit more crime per person than do U.S. citizens, and each crime is a net gain over what would be the case if they weren’t here. Illegal immigrants are a net drain on the economy and cost money. U.S. labor needs can be fulfilled by legal immigrants. Illegal immigrant are exploited and paid substandard wages, often under the table, hurting the market for American workers. They bring illnesses and contagious diseases. Illegal immigration exacerbates our drug problems and has created a market for human trafficking.

Regardless of which view you hold, or even if your views are mixed on this issue, it seems to me that all sides should be able to get behind the president’s threat — or promise. The beauty of it is its simplicity. It doesn’t require litigating who’s correct. It merely accepts the stated view of each side. President Trump is telling illegal immigration supporters: I hear you and am giving you the chance to practice your advocacy. You will receive all the benefits you foresee from illegal immigrants. At the same time, he’s telling illegal immigration opponents: I hear you and will not force you to bear what you see as costs to your communities.

There are consequences to whichever side is wrong, and that’s not a bad thing, either. Those communities that shun illegal immigrants will not receive the benefits, if it turns out they exist. On the other hand, those who welcome illegal immigrants will have to bear the costs or other negative consequences, if it turns out there are any after all.

If illegal immigrants were welcomingly hosted by sanctuary cities and states, there’s an added benefit to all: We would be conducting a valuable social experiment. Within a year, there’s a pretty good chance we would be able to see which side is closer to being correct. The communities that take in masses of illegal immigrants will either be measurably safer and more prosperous, less safe and less prosperous, or some mix thereof.

Therefore, it seems to me there is only one logical response to the president’s threat — or promise. For non-sanctuary cities and states, it would be: “Thank you, President Trump, for not saddling us with the costs of this crisis.” For sanctuary cities and states, it would be: “Welcome to all illegal immigrants. And thank you, President Trump, for rewarding us with all the benefits they bring.”
