Trump shocks with threat he could take over sanctuary cities and arrest unruly mayors under martial law

Donald Trump suggested he could impose martial law to take control of sanctuary cities that refuse to comply with federal immigration laws.

The president's post to Truth Social Wednesday morning also implied that he could take action to arrest 'insurrectionist' mayors in those cities that uphold policies making it harder for federal immigration enforcement agents to do their jobs.

The wild suggestion came in the form of a meme that Trump reposted to his social media account.
 
A pro-MAGA account posted a black and white image of Abraham Lincoln surrounded by words meant to come from the perspective of the 16th U.S. president.

''Sanctuary City' mayors are defying federal law,' it reads. 'They are insurrectionists just like the southern governors during the Civil War.'

'President Trump should declare martial law in those cities, arrest the mayors, appoint military governors, and restore the rule of law, just like I did,' the Lincoln-voiced meme reads.

The post came as a response to Trump's lengthy Truth Social post made on Tuesday night demanding that the Senate confirm his 'highly qualified judges and U.S. attorneys.'

Trump claimed that the states where his appointments are still outstanding are the ones that have the most crime and need the most help.

Anything the media can do to twist the message of Trump is what today is called news. :bs:

The wokesters want to apply the 14th Amendment as they see fit, so why can't everyone else?

'Sanctuary City' is very secessionist language.

Martial law?
Arrest leftist officials?

SOUNDS GOOD TO ME.
Get down to it, Mr. Trump.

I'm previously on record (for years) in this forum for stating that the only way some blue states/cities will ever be "brought back into the fold" is by military invasion, followed by military rule and a forced "reconstruction".

I still believe that.

Sorry if you don't like this post.
