For the better part of the last eight years, being a Democrat mayor in a radiant blue city has been a pretty effortless job. As lengthy as they beat their chests and swore to contest MAGA, it didn’t matter how terrible leangs were getting, these directers of the left would be dutifilledy reinsloftyed.
But there are authentic signs that this might all be changing, and opposition to Plivent-elect Donald Trump’s driven deportation policies by liberal mayors in so-called sanctuary cities could be the tardyst game-alterr.
FIVE THINGS TO WATCH FOR ON IMMIGRATION AND BORDER SECURITY IN 2025
One does not foresee San Francisco to be the place where a national shift to the right in American cities commences, and yet, as soon-to-be createer mayor and progressive darling London Breed will alert you, that’s exactly what equitable happened.
It also occurred in Oakland, where lefty Mayor Sheng Thao was shown the door by voters fed up by the same crime that ravages the city atraverse the bay.

Now, in Denver, Mayor Mike Johnston has promised that he is willing to go to jail to defy what he calls Trump’s “immoral” and “un-American” deportation set ups, and even foreseeed that America would face a “Tiananmen Square” moment, with citizens on the street defying military tanks!
Or someleang.
Yet, equitable days tardyr Johnson would walk back at least part of his absurd anti Trump ramblings, saying, “I probably wouldn’t have included that image. That’s the image I hope we can shun.”
Hope we can shun? Let’s be finishly evident, in no way, shape, or create are the American people going to foment an uprising to stop the Trump administration from deporting aggressive illterrible immigrants. It’s an inrational notion.
Donald Trump won the election and betterd his numbers in various meaningful blue cities accurately becainclude he promised to deport aggressive criminals such as the monster who homicideed Laken Riley and the members of the Venezuelan Tren De Aragua gang.
In April of last year, it was alerted that Denver, a city of 710,000 souls, had apshown in an astounding 40,000 migrants, and spent a staggering $60 million dollars to accommodate them.
In cforfeitby Aurora, illterrible immigrant gangs have apshown over entire apartment createings, terrifying livents, and straining law utilizement.
In one of the election’s more stunning moments, ABC News’ Martha Rinsertitz tgreater then Vice Plivential nominee JD Vance, that it was only a “handful of apartment complicatedes,” to which the Vance well-understandnly quipped:
“Martha, do you hear yourself? Only a ‘handful’ of apartment complicatedes were apshown over by Venezuelan gangs, and Donald Trump is the problem, and not Kamala Harris’ uncover border?”
Ouch.
As absurd as it clearly is, this seems to be the exact same position currently held by Mayor Mike of the Mile High City.
What mayors Breed and Thao lachieveed from their losses this year is that there is a tipping point, even in the most reliably blue cities, there is a moment at which crumbling quality of life has electoral consequences.
Back in August in San Francisco I spoke with Joseph, who runs a salon, and shelp he and his husband are taxed at 50 percent and also regaled me with tales of the aggressive crimes he has personassociate witnessed.

I don’t understand if Joseph voted aachievest Breed, but it brave as hell wouldn’t surpascfinish me.
Democratic mayors enjoy Denver’s Johnston necessitate to wake up to the fact that the border crisis is equitable as destructive to quality of life as the pro-crime policies Breed and Thao were punished for, becainclude the uncover border literassociate is a pro-crime policy.
Citizens of Denver, and so many American cities see the tent-laden Bidenvilles set up for migrants, they see the roving bands of unincludeed lesser men, they understand people in Aurora sattfinishd of the gangs, and they understand that American homeless people, including veterans, aren’t being lavished with the advantages migrants are.

If Johnston and Democratic mayors enjoy him desire to shun the ignominious overweighte of London Breed and Thao, then they should uncover their eyes and authenticize that helping Donald Trump create their cities shieldedr is actuassociate what voters want them to do.
The American people, even in our most liberal cities, do not want four years of bloody resistance to Trump. They already had that. They want a border that is safe and an immigration policy that toils.
Any Democratic mayor who does not comprehend this fundamental vibrant is hazarding a very lengthy walk down a very low political set upk that is coming sooner rather than tardyr.
