Isn't it funny that if the Federal Government cuts funding to sanctuary cities, liberals will blame the government for cutting services?

rather than themselves.

The cities are violating federal law, but when you punish them for it, they take no responsibility for WHY they are being punished.

These liberal mayors seem like 14 year-olds that don't understand the consequences of their actions.

Is this because under 8 years of Obama there WERE no consequences for ignoring federal laws, since he encouraged it?

    First thing is that all protection NYC pays for trumps protection be ended.

    And no they are not violating federal law. Unless they are deputized as federal agents, they are not federal agents and do not act as such, immigration laws are federal laws.

    They don't have to do the feds work for them.

    Since New York and California create most of our GDP and pay most of the taxes, I'm guessing that's a fight the federal govt doesn't want to pick.

    I'm sorry, but you are a Republican and thus makes you unqualified to even take your opinion serious. Just go back to sleeping with your cousin and shooting beer cans outside your trailer park in the backwoods of Texas or Mississippi and let the sophisticated men that actually understand how the federal Government functions and how laws and clauses exist to get around the feds.

    You hit the nail on the head...although it strikes me as being more sad than funny.

    If you haven't figured out by now that liberals never blame themselves for anything, ever, you haven't been watching very closely.

    The fundamental belief of a liberal - the center of their moral universe - is that they never be held responsible for anything, ever.

    Isn't it funnier that no one in those so-called sanctuary cities cares?

    1. There are no criteria for what constitutes a "sanctuary city" in the first place.

    2. The ones that conservatives love to hate like San Francisco.... get such a small percentage of their budget from the Feds.... they simply don't give crap about Trump's empty threats..... even if they some day stop being empty.
