Watch: Trump threatens to send undocumented immigrants to sanctuary cities to make the Democrats 'happy': 'Let's see if they have open arms.'
President Donald Trump threatened to send undocumented immigrants to"sanctuary city areas" as political retribution against Democrats on Friday.
"California certainly is always saying, 'Oh we want more people'... Well, we'll give them more people. We can give them a lot. We can give them an unlimited supply. And let's see if they're so happy. They say we have open arms. Let's see if they have open arms. The alternative is to change the laws and we can do it very, very quickly," he said.
On Thursday, The Washington Post reported that Trump aides had proposed in November and February to transport undocumented immigrants to sanctuary cities.
