Donald Trump Signals Shift on Deportations: Feds Will Enter Sanctuary Cities Only If Mayors “Ask” and “Invited”
President Trump:
Well, one thing I say to my people: we do a good job, and we don’t get credit for it. I say they have to ask, and they have to say “please.” When a city is going to ask the mayor or the governor, I don’t want to go and force ourselves into a city, even if their numbers are terrible.
Like, for instance, I got a call from Jeff Landry, governor of Louisiana. He said, “We have a big problem. Could you go in and help us with—well, let’s see—certain sections.” I mean, to be honest with you, certain sections of the state beyond their famous, beautiful city—certain sections of the state.
We have done not only New Orleans, we’ve done a really great job in Louisiana. But I was called. I want to be called. Chicago—we could solve the Chicago crime.
President Trump:
We have five cities that we’re looking at very strongly, but we want to be invited. We will sometimes call the governors and say, “Are you going to invite us?”
