for the president leading to mid-terms. he promised to security funding for a border wall and failed to do that in the omnibus. he s covering bases by playing to his base and offering up the red meat. in fact, a study from the university of california san diego found that sanctuary cities on average are safer and more economically prosperous. i m not arguing in favor of sanctuary cities by saying that but it s politically incorrect and reckless for the president to say that cities that are sanctuary cities are less safe. jon: amos, listen to what jerry brown said about this. a lot of politics in this. i tried to carve a path down the middle to respect our immigrants and respect or border and our law. jon: one way you respect law is by respecting immigration law, right? yeah. if you look at this, what san diego did is it s in the interest of their public safety. that s how they re looking at
