  1. Who are we to argue with the brain trust, that is the almighty city council. A couple of used car salesmen, a few lawyers, and a teacher or two. Constitutional scholars all.

  2. Oh!
    Cambridge, Taxachusetts!
    At first I thought it was Cambridge, England … and I was worried for President Trump!
    Betcha can’t drop nuclear bombs on em, either, like Tacoma Park, MD – yep, some years ago their city council passed just such a resolution.
    Pretty heady stuff! Like bacteria passing a resolution against Clorox.

    izlamo delenda est …

  3. Once again we learn of timeless rhetoric from one of the greatest deliberative bodies in western civilization.

    The Council passed this right after they passed another resolution praising the City finance manager for taking Beano before attending any budget hearings.

  4. Yes, there should be a beer summit, where the President can politely tell Cambridge they are wrong for what they did, not to be judging people out-of-hand, and to never, ever do that again.
