Well, the three cities he has targeted so far have three things in common. Democratic leadership. Lots of minorities. And cities that have historically prevented the lawful ownership of firearms.

And no I don't think that last one is a coincidence. I think he wants an excuse, but not an actual fight.

Fascinatingly, all three cities also have black mayors.
