Actual US President Trump Wanted To Send 'Murderers,' 'Rapists' To Actual US Cities




https://www.wonkette.com/trump-sanctuary-cities

Donald Trump reportedly is very annoyed with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, who he believes stole his hilarious scheme to trick desperate migrants onto buses and ship them COD to wherever liberals congregate in large numbers. This is grotesque human trafficking but Trump sounds like a bitter comic who still complains that Robin Williams stole their material.

Former Department of Homeland Security official Miles Taylor revealed to Rolling Stone that Trump had workshopped his human DoorDash routine back in 2019. The intent was to "punish" his political opponents in cities that Democrats controlled.

“He said, ‘I want you to get the worst of the worst’ — criminals, actual ‘murderers,’ and actual ‘rapists’ — who cross the [southern] border, and round them up. He did not want to expel them, which is what you’re supposed to do in those situations,” Taylor says. “He specifically said that he wanted us to put them on buses … to, and I quote, ‘destabilize’ those sanctuary cities.”


Trump had specifically targeted Los Angeles, Portland, Chicago, and New York City. These metropolitan areas are in fact sanctuary cities, which protect undocumented residents from deportation or prosecution, despite federal immigration laws. They aren't lawless anarchist districts, though. Leaders of sanctuary cities believe (correctly) that reducing the threat of deportation and especially family separation would make undocumented residents more willing to report serious crimes and send their kids to school. Republicans probably don't give a damn about the latter but they won't shut up about rising crime in cities.

It pissed off Trump that Democratic leaders in sanctuary cities "defied his authority" so he wanted to deliberately barrage those cities with violent criminals. He never quite accepted or perhaps even understood that he was president of the entire United States.

I realized this week that my anger toward the GQP is almost unhealthy, mentally. I want to grab every Independent and GQP voter and shake some sense into them. I have never experienced anger and sheer frustration toward the GQP at this level before tRump.

I am scared since cults who become part of a political party's agenda has never been seen like this in our history. Even the Civil War was not a blind cult, they were evil, greedy bastards.

May he be able to spend the next 20 years of his miserable existence with the worst of the worst of hardened criminals, actual murderers and actual rapists, protected from them only by the wall of his cell.

In Portland, the rise in violence and homelessness didn't happen organically and it happened during that terrible 4 years.
