I would shut off everything except anything specifically pertaining to national security and trade interests (ports, bridges, etc)

If NYC wants to have their own little commie Petri dish, it should not be done on the backs of regular middle of the country Americans.

Yep. Remove all federal funding from NYC, and threaten all cities that have a Marxist lib running that they are next.

The Democratic Party has been riding the coattails of conservatives for long enough. Starve them out.

Judge Boasberg: I am issuing a preliminary injunction preventing the Federal Government from withholding any funds from New York City or any other city or State for any reason whatsoever in anticipation of the Federal Government arbitrarily and capriciously withholding funds based simply on the outcome of an election.

There is a reason Trump left NYC and moved to Florida.

He knows the south is still blue collar, and believes in the values that made America great such as hard work and a traditional family.

If this happens it’ll be a scapegoat if his politics fail. Besides that, will the next Dem president cutoff federal funding to red states?

Let them run their experiment

Any money going to NYC would be a bailout for failed projects and spending money they don't have. This commie mayor can't wait to start with freebies and taxing.

Doesn’t mean he would support cutting all national security aid, which would make him fully to blame for any terrorist attack that would potentially occur in his hometown, and most significant city in the country.

NYC is a failed city?

NYC has a higher GDP than 46 STATES in the country.

Yes, let’s cut off federal funds to the metro that accounts for 8% of the nation’s economy and controls a massive percentage of the nation’s financial system. What could go wrong?

Sec. of Treasury has already said NYC can go to hell for a bailout if he got elected.

I’m leaning this way too. Keep the federal funding just as it is now with a possible caveat for money that is going to illegal immigrants.
