He is not.

The harbor is amazing, and Hampden is trendy and absolutely wonderful.

Your bubble view of Baltimore leaves out about 85% of the City. What are your thoughts on Greenmount, Cherry Hill, Madison, Madison, or East End?

I love Cherry Hill! I’ve spent a lot of time there as a part of a pretty awesome dance community. The other parts you mention I’m not familiar with. My point is the entirety of Baltimore is not a shit-hole, as your idiot president likes to say.

309 homicides in 2018.

I thought you people have been telling us that under Trump and with easy access to guns that rates of violent crimes are down. Which is it?

Something significant happened between 2014 and 2015 in Baltimore. Does anyone know?

The homicides had been in 200s before 2015. Ever since 2015 it has been in the 300s. What happened?

Anything to do with Freddie Gray?

Cops policy is to let them kill each other.

These are photos of poverty in rural America. I would guess rodents and other unwanted critters abound.

Happy to take it up. Have you ever seen what those people do to decent housing? I have with HUD funded programs. HUD buildings are even worse Kushner’s are at least market rate and he doesn’t have to take the dregs like HUD buildings.

Nope. Because he specifically said Baltimore:

Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump
....As proven last week during a Congressional tour, the Border is clean, efficient & well run, just very crowded. Cumming District is a disgusting, rat and rodent infested mess. If he spent more time in Baltimore, maybe he could help clean up this very dangerous & filthy place

More proof Trump doesn’t know anything. Cummings lives in Baltimore year round. He also doesn’t actually govern it. Trump said the same thing about Pelosi. They’re not mayors.

But Pelosi’s father was for over a decade and presided over the urban renewal which led to the current ghettos where blacks are segregated in Baltimore. Getting baseball back displaced many with no compensation. His corruption was a primer for those now running Baltimore.

No one uses the word ghetto anymore.

Segregation was legislated by whites all over this country starting in the late 19th century. And even without legalized segregation, whites found ways of keeping blacks out of their neighborhoods. Ever heard of redlining?

"Those people." NOT EVEN HUMAN. Subhuman. Animals. Right?

Trump’s use of “infestation” has touched many.

An infestation causes damage or disease. Last week posters were supporting free medical for illegal immigrants to control disease. So you do not want illegal immigrants to spread disease, but you want to coddle their feelings.

Baltimore is a historical African American community. Cummings District is the second wealthiest majority AA District (the #1 district includes PG County). Try to get your insults straight. Trump is insulting AAs today, not illegal immigrants.

An analogy is too difficult to grasp?

On #NationalDanceDay, I'm shouting out the Lethal Ladies, a Baltimore STEP team who I saw perform back in 2017. I’m so proud of you all—and everyone who’s dancing today!

Wow “lethal” is the right name for them coming from Baltimore LOL

^^^This is the sort of ugliness that African Americans have to deal with every single damn day.

That is just perfect. Hat's off to whoever wrote that. Great respect.

One thing's for sure, Jared doesn't seem to mind making massive amounts of money from government-subsidized, low-income housing in Baltimore.

You are right. 15% of Baltimore is not a shit hole. Cherry Home is despite its “awesome” dance community.
