Is that his motivation?

What if he does? Your point?


Do you think he does?

Most Libs think much of what Trump says is meaningless actually. I think it would take a lot more than this to turn them into MAGA anything. You have a lot of wishful thinking.

Cher does not speak for liberals as far as I know.


The Democrats responding to her tweet are right there with her, one after another. Lots of voices are hearing this as someone finally saying what they’re all thinking. Don’t take my word for it. It will keep happening as a result of Trump calling their bluff.

You do realize that sanctuary cities are by and large cities where immigrants - both legal and illegal - ALREADY live. They are already here. And many of our communities are rallying to make it possible for them to live their fullest lives and become contributors to our regions. It's not a punishment - it's the American way.


Exactly - it’s NOT a punishment. So why are Democrats so very outraged?? They should be tickled pink.



For the 100000th time...

It’s not that Dems think it’s a punishment, it’s that Trump and Miller sat down to think of a way to punish Dems for the ICE funding for beds. Trump thinks it’s a punishment he can inflict on Dems in retaliation for budget negotiations.

I think he should go ahead with his plan. If ICE doesn’t have the funds for the buses he should loan out his campaign buses and take full credit for his plan. It would certainly make him look like a compassionate guy.



Yes, we know - you've repeated your spiel for the 100000th time. The point you seem to be deliberately avoiding is: SO WHAT if Trump thought it would be a "punishment"? Many of you have repeatedly said it would *not* be a punishment to receive these immigrants. Though I question how many of you actually live in the targeted sanctuary cities - easy for you to say how much they'd be welcome if you're not even living there.

Finally, what's your explanation as to why Democrats refused funding for ICE beds? If beds are needed, why are they not being funded by the very people who insist these migrants are so welcome here?

The issue is that you dont want your schools and neighborhoods going to the crapper. Its okay to admit.




You are projecting, MAGA trash!!

And, phew! Finally! It took 36 pages for you to realize that we are outraged by Trump’s vindictiveness, not the immigrants. Not the brightest bunch, are you?



Riiiiight. If the idea of sending these immigrants to sanctuary cities had come from the Democrats, you’d be falling all over yourselves to show your approval. The only reason you’re outraged (as usual) is because your favorite person to hate suggested it. Get real. We see straight through your faux outrage.

Why do you think Trump wants to send them?



Because there’s no more room at the border and because Democrats have made it clear they will happily take them. Win-win. Right?


“The White House believed it could punish Democrats — including Pelosi — by busing ICE detainees into their districts before their release, according to two DHS whistleblowers who independently reported the busing plan to Congress. One of the whistleblowers spoke with The Washington Post, and several DHS officials confirmed the accounts. They spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss internal deliberations.”

Yes, we get it. The point is (for the zillionth time), why aren't all of you proving Trump wrong that this would in any way be a "punishment"? If that's the case, why aren't you organizing busing for these migrants yourselves?

interesting . . .

The Border Patrol announced Thursday it would release migrants in southern New Mexico and in El Paso, Texas, pending their future court hearings Immigration and Customs "capacity issues."




I expect to see lots of people in NM putting their homes on the market.


Excellent. I would expect it to be Republicans to leave. Turn NM solidly blue.


Totally agree! You guys can finance all of the immigrants’ needs, including hospital care, shelter, and schools. Good on you!


Yes , good on me! And I will feel confident when it’s time to meet my maker that I lived a good life by His principles and that my actions left the world a better place.



I'm so glad for you.

https://twitter.com/cher/status/1117491420934365185


The people on the streets begging are NOT the immigrants. The immigrants are the ones working and contributing. Yes, the people on the streets are a problem. But will they go out and work like the immigrants? Somebody has to work. We are not getting our garbage picked up and cleaning done because they cannot find employees. Seriously.


so . . . You seriously think that all of those entering our country will be working - ON THE BOOKS?

We have people picking up trash and building houses and cleaning offices and working in restaurants and and and . . .

Let's bring in more issues even though we CAN'T solve the ones that already exist!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Clearly you have NO compassion for the many sick and mentally ill folks living in tents around the country.

You are despicable.

Happy to donate to support those communities.


Write those checks and start sending supplies! Be sure to document everything on social media, too.



I dunno. My FIL who lives outside ElPaso just told my DH that he is going to buy a gun. He was badly beaten and robbed by two illegals a few months ago and turned the other cheek. Now he is preparing.


Your FIL's preparation reveals the underlying motivation of Trump's proposal. If you view all illegal immigrants as potential criminals, then dropping them off at Pelosi's doorstep is meant to punish her.


Can you even read? The PP stated that her FIL had already been beaten and robbed by two illegals. He has good reason to view them as potential criminals.

POTUS planning punishment for citizens of the his own country is OK in your books?? Seriously???

When the biggest gay-loving liberal like Cher comes out in favor of putting citizens first, I don't care if Trump is acting like an ass or not. His statements are waking people up to the logistical issues facing the absorption of more illegal immigrants.

Now we see the hypocrisy of cons who cry about religious freedom under attack and then thumb their noses at the religious beliefs of others when they contradict their own.


What are you babbling about? How is this about religious freedom? The PP was mocking the PPP because of the sheer sanctimony dripping from her post. Regardless of one's religion, many of us do regular good works that we don't feel the need to brag about, or trot out as some sort of self-righteous pat on the back. Doesn't matter one iota what religion the PPP is - normal, down-to-earth people don't claim the moral high ground. Liberals, however, do all the time - regardless of their religion.

This man was assaulted. I hardly think YOU'D be as compassionate after being beaten and robbed.



So you agree that dropping them off at sanctuary cities is a form of punishment.


Not the PP, but it certainly would be for me and I have no problem saying that. But you liberals - it would be a joy to receive busloads of immigrants, right?
