TIL Desk/World/Washington/ US President Donald Trump has said he is seriously considering funnelling detained illegal migrants into the self-declared sanctuary cities that oppose his tough immigration policies.
Trump’s announcement on Twitter reversed a previous White House assurance that the idea – criticised as political retribution against cities led by opposition Democrats – had been dropped.
“Due to the fact that Democrats are unwilling to change our very dangerous immigration laws, we are indeed, as reported, giving strong considerations to placing Illegal Immigrants in Sanctuary Cities,” Trump said on Friday.
“The Radical Left always seems to have an Open Borders, Open Arms policy — so this should make them very happy!” he tweeted.
The Washington Post earlier revealed the proposal, which would mark a new flashpoint in the ever growing political divide over immigration.
Trump has staked his presidency on his insistence that the United States is being overrun by migrants and asylum seekers.
