Krauthammer on Dems Defying Trump Over Sanctuary Cities: 'They're Making a Big Bet and a Mistaken One'

Cities pledge to follow federal requirements... and just say there are *NO* illegals.

Who cares if the statement is accurate?

Why not. Just arrest those mayors who defy the law?  It is a felony to assist an illegal.
