So President Trump held a town hall in association with the Fox News Channel, all women, in coming

Illinois, coming Georgia. Why did I say Illinois? I got Illinois on my mind for some reason,

coming Georgia. And in said town hall he was asked about illegal immigration

which is a very very emotional and volatile issue.

And Trump said, if he's elected, he's going to knock out sanctuary cities of which New York is at the top of the list, New York City.

So number one, my question would have been, why didn't you do that in your first four years,

Mr President?, legitimate question.

Had four years to knock it out, the sanctuary city movement, he did not.

And number two, what are you going to do exactly?

Now he touched on, he said, I don't know write an executive board

but it's not that hard to do it, because all big cities in the country and New York is again at the top of the list get federal money in the form of grants, block grants.

Congress appropriates that money, but not specifically.

So New York City needs grants for education, policing, things like that, infrastructure,

and the federal government sends the city money.

Trump can write an executive order saying that if you do not obey federal immigration law, you are not going to get any federal money.

That would be challenged in the courts, but I think Trump would win.

Because if you are an outlaw city or state,

then you are not entitled to the largesse

of the federal government.

If you're disobeying federal law. That's the argument and I think

that argument would prevail. So Trump could have done that his first time around and I think should have and I told him that because sanctuary

cities have ignited this unbelievable immigration chaos we have in every state, every city, everywhere.
