Trump Wanted To Bus Rapists And Murderers To Democrat Controlled Cities

Reports earlier this week said that Donald Trump was furious at Ron DeSantis for shipping migrants to "sanctuary cities" because it was allegedly Trump's idea first. Well, according to the former Chief of Staff to the head of the Department of Homeland Security, Trump DID have the idea first - but it was much worse. Trump instructed his officials to gather up anyone known to be a rapist or murderer that had crossed the border and ship them to cities run by Democrats, but backed out after being told it was illegal. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses this new revelation.

Earlier this week, there was a report from rolling stone that showed that Donald Trump was fuming to his aids and advisors and staffers down there at Margo about Ron DeSantis, little political stunt, where he shipped the asylum seekers from Texas to Martha's vineyard. And the reason Donald Trump was so mad, not because he knew it was illegal, but because Trump said it was his idea and now Desant stole it well, fast forward a couple of days and, uh, miles Taylor, the former department of Homeland security, chief of staff confirmed in an interview this week that Trump's not lying. Trump actually did have the idea to ship these migrants to liberal cities, except Trump's idea was far, far worse. Here is what Mr. Taylor had to say in January and February of 2019, Donald Trump directed us to go and take immigrants from the border end, quote bus and dump them into democratic cities and blue states.

He wanted us to identify the murderers, the rapists and the criminals, and in particular, make sure we did not incarcerate them. And we put them in those cities, doesn't take a lawyer or a genius to recognize this would likely be very illegal to do, but put aside the murderers and the rapists and the criminals, could you take people from the border and just dump them into blue states? And then he said that department of Homeland security officials told them, no, you can't do that. That is very illegal. So Donald Trump didn't do it. You know, didn't ship the murderers and the rapists to the blue states because the department of Homeland security told him, whoa, dude, that is 100% illegal. Like even if you weren't just shipping the murderers and the rapists, it would still be illegal for you to do that. So that, that kind of seems relevant today. Doesn't it? Because DeSantis did it. DeSantis is trying to, you know, play with the media about whether or not he's gonna do it again. They already shipped some to, uh, vice president Kamala Harris's home, like on her street. And three years ago, the department of Homeland security said, nah, you can't do that. That is illegal. Trump's own. People said this was illegal. Mega people said it was illegal.

So there is no doubt in my mind that what Ron DeSantis has done is 100% illegal. And remember this stood up immediately after it happened and said, I am taking credit. I did it. And now of course, he's been trying to backtrack, walk it back. We now know of course that the, uh, company, he chartered the plane from happened to be a huge donor to his campaign. There is all sorts of corruption involved in this at every level, but let's get back to the big claim here. Trump wanted to send murderers and rapists to Democrat controlled cities and states. He wanted you to be terrorized. He didn't care if you got raped, he didn't care if you got murdered. In my opinion, I'm willing to bet that he was hoping that you did so just know that because I know that there are no such things as solid blue or solid red cities and states, there's Democrats and Republicans in every single city across this country. So Republicans in those blue cities just remember, Trump was totally cool with sending you murders and rapists didn't care what happened because that's the kind of low life scum that he is.
