Actually, I think Trump should’ve file suit against them.
Reminder: A few years ago Arizona tried to enforce our immigration laws (because Obama wouldn’t). Obama filed suit and the Supreme Court ruled that immigration policy falls under the Federal government. It seems to me that, by extension, cities would be as unable to set their own policies as Arizona.
.... Obama filed suit and the Supreme Court ruled that immigration policy falls under the Federal government...
As usual, the rules are different for democrats. Now they want it both ways...

You have to remember, that there are no consistent criteria in the liberal universe.
The criteria change based on whatever the liberal view of an issue is.
so, in the Arizona case, the liberals who are in favor of illegal aliens and amnesty, argued that the federal government, and not the state of Arizona, has supremacy over immigration and dealing with illegals.
In the case of sanctuary cities, the liberals will argue that the individual cities, not the federal government, have supremacy over immigration and dealing with illegals.
It’s all about what advances the liberal position. Liberals have no consistent standards.
Actually they should be arresting them, they are violating several laws.
