After Trump's calling Baltimore's district a rodent and rat infested mess. The Baltimore Sun replied;

"[W]e would tell the most dishonest man to ever occupy the Oval Office, the mocker of war heroes, the gleeful grabber of women’s private parts, the serial bankrupter of businesses, the useful idiot of Vladimir Putin and the guy who insisted there are 'good people' among murderous neo-Nazis that he’s still not fooling most Americans into believing he’s even slightly competent in his current post."

The Sun left out a few things, but otherwise the paper covered it nicely.

In earlier days that would be treason or at the very least sedition

I guess when Bolshevik Bernie said the same thing all was cool. The fact is that Elijah Cummings should be ashamed of conditions in the district he represents . But the truth is that he stopped representing them years ago to persue a national agenda.

btw ;anyone complaining about Republican gerrymandering should see this district map of the permanant incumbent Cummings .

Didn't the dude say he would fix the American carnage that ravishes our cities? Must be like his other promises like drain the swamp, and Mexico would pay for the wall etc etc. What a terrible combination for a president, lying, cheating, stealing, bad mouthing and a bully, that's untrustworthy on top of all that. What you think dems districts are any worse than repub districts? The poorest places in the country are full of dufus supporters and they still are as poor as they were before, so are those congressmen being called out by the dufus. Of course not.

It's really simple, the dufus and his buddies make out like bandits, ordinary Americans get ignored. I thought the prez was for every body not just his rich friends and family.

Pointing out that Baltimore is one of the worst run cities in America, rife with crime and plagued by poor living conditions, isn’t racist. It’s evident to anyone with two eyes .

That's not what Trump said. He said "rat infested, rodent infested, and not fit for any human being to live there".

The human beings living there are African-Americans. According to Trump, they are not human beings. If you don't see Trump's comments as racist, you're blind.

[tomder55]

He said "rat infested, rodent infested, and not fit for any human being to live there".

He's not wrong about that except that Baltimore is not alone . He could've picked 3 or 4 other Democrat run cities where rat infestation is worse ;like NYC or Chi-town .

Don't get too haughty. NYC is #3.

The attack on Cummings and Baltimore isn't about anything but retaliation over the lambasting of the border patrol handling of its immigrant facilities in a hearing last week. It worked pretty good since we are talking about what he wants and taken the southern border out of the conversation.

Obviously he misunderstands what the phrase the buck stops here means. He is the president of the nation and has no clue how to solve problems, and sinks to fear hate and division to rally his troops to get elected so he doesn't get arrested.

[tomder55]

NYC is run by another Democrat overseer of the Democrat plantation. They don't like criticism so they shout "racist " from the highest mountain while doing everything possible to avoid actually addressing the issues ;the unintended consequences of their policies . The fact is that conditions at border detention facilities are better than much of Cummings' district .

20,000 cities in America. no doubt they all have a bad part of town, but no excuse for what the dufus tweets as a distraction to bad news and incompetence. No squalid conditions in Ohio, or any repub controlled stronghold he could have commented on, but then he would have had to call out the white representatives in those cities too.

We know that's not going to happen. The dufus chose to make this personal about one person, instead of the nationwide issue it is, and has been for a while. Did you want a list of the poorest places in America? A lot worse off than Baltimore, and in repub gerrymandered districts. Let's tell the whole story instead of just the parts to make a tribal narrative.

[tomder55]

He picked Cummings because he opened his mouth about the border detention centers. NY City is also rat infested and it is run by a white commie . So this is not about race . But that is the last refuge for the indefensible record of failure Dems have running cities . Here is how it is about race though. The African American voting block continues to vote in these failures year after year . There is no accounting and Reps like Cummings take his constituency for granted .

I can understand the dufus being mad when black faces call him out on his crap. I mean he is above the law, so tell the great orange dude to send some of that loot he throws around so easily to him and his friends to the hood and maybe he gets a vote. Until then screw the racist president for the neutral color.

Pretty obvious Tom, minorities ain't going for his crap and yes the dem agenda is becoming the diverse agenda. Clean air, clean water, clean energy, education and health care. You let me know when repubs want to address those things. The party of old white guys has stolen the money and hollered security and family values, and fiscal responsibility a long time, and all that's a LIE!

PS

The dufus can be impeached in 2022 if we have too so no hurry.

You could have been a rich defense lawyer if you wanted too.

I'm wondering if Trump has tired of being the president. There are so many things he can't do, e.g., can't drive and can't roam alone at will. Perhaps he has deliberately become his own "worst enemy" for reelection.

[talaniman]

Maybe he has always been his own worst enemy in his limited world. He might just be dissapointed more people don;t cater to his demand and put him on a pedestal he thinks he deserves. Doesn't matter really, the question is can he get re elected doing it his way? He can resign if he is tired of the position as far as I'm concerned. I will do whatever I can to make him a one term president!Or a convicted criminal with a perp walk he deserves.

Whichever comes first!
