Deportation threat is how tRump plans to get crime numbers down.

If Latinos don't report out of fear, the numbers go down and tRump declares victory as the "law and order" President.

about the crimes they know about aren't going to get it from people frightened of being deported, which is the basic reasoning behind having sanctuary cities, that and allowing cops to do their own jobs without having to do ICE jobs, too.

"His" crime numbers are going nowhere but up as programs supporting battered women and children are defunded.

If you want to know where most criminals come from, look at the homes they grew up in.
