And, equally obviously, Baltimore's issues go WAY beyond trash on the street, and have to do with policies that Republicans enacted or are trying to enact or blocked. Kicking people off of food stamps? Yeah, that's REALLY going to help Baltimore. I could go on and name a zillion anti-welfare policies.

If you told me that Republicans in Baltimore were stepping up contributions to their local food pantries, making huge gifts to school after-care programs, funding Habitat for Humanity, in a sustainable and long-term committed way ... but a one-off trash pickup on a weekend? Please. Don't insult me.

Of course their problems go way beyond picking up trash. But it’s pretty impossible to do much of anything if they first and foremost don’t have a sanitary environment to live in. Maybe now that the alleys are cleaned up, local DEMOCRATS - you know, elected “leaders” - can take the next steps to tackle the host of problems these people face. They certainly haven’t done much in the way of trash removal for these neighborhoods, now have they? Speaking of insulting...

As if picking up trash is going to magically make Republicans start enacting more policies to lift them out of poverty and gun control laws to limit neighborhood violence.

Look, dude. You clearly have your knickers in a twist because a group of Trump supporters mobilized and cleaned out some trash-filled neighborhoods, because their local Dem “leaders” hadn’t bothered to do it themselves. These people saw a need and they acted. Not sure what your problem is, other than a clear case of sour grapes. It’s pathetic, really.

DP. I don't have my knickers in a twist at all, and if Republicans want to start authentically pushing local involvement in relief work (Habitat, schools, food pantries) IN THEIR OWN CITIES, then I would think that was great. This jagoff was from NoVa - he's sure to find SOME spot in Virginia that needs hands-on help, seeing as Virginia has more concentrated poverty than Maryland. This was a political stunt, no more, no less -- actually USING baltimore neighborhoods' poverty as a political stunt which makes it even grosser.

So again - you’d prefer the Baltimore residents still be living among filth. Good to know.

No, and I can guarantee you that Trump will result in MORE filth, not less. These jerks didn't clean up filth; they picked up poor people's trash to score political points against them. Gross.

“Gross” perfectly describes anyone who is STILL obsessing over volunteers doing much-needed cleanup in Baltimore neighborhoods. Face it: you don’t care that the residents now have clean streets and alleyways. You would PREFER them to still be living among garbage. Anything would be better than having Republicans involved, right? People like you are truly despicable. There’s really nothing else to say.

An ardent supporter of President Donald Trump marshaled about 70 people Monday for a community cleanup in West Baltimore.

Scott Presler first suggested the cleanup in a Twitter post that has since gone viral. The Pennsylvania man said the effort is not a "pro-Trump rally or an anti-Rep. [Elijah] Cummings" event, referring to the Baltimore congressman who Trump took aim at in tweets and remarks more than a week ago.

In a tweet the day before launching the cleanup effort, he suggested he would "stand in the middle of the city with a sign that asks why democrats choose illegal aliens over black lives." His visit to Baltimore comes during a slate of his planned Republican activist training sessions in the region.

However, Presler said he was in Baltimore Monday out of a genuine desire to help, not because of his politics.

“This is not political,” he said. “We saw a need in the city, and we wanted to come together.”

The post brought people from several surrounding states. More than 230 people signed up to work cleanup shifts. Volunteers were set to work at the site from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.

The group also included Pastor Tony Hill, who leads a west Baltimore congregation.

“It’s people over politics,” Hill said. “Things like this really forge alliances between neighbors. “We have one cause in mind and that’s to clean up Baltimore.”

Good to see people who are willing to get off their screens and go DO something. Anyone like that here?

This is exactly how Libs seem to think. Can’t fix everything in one day? Stay on your ass, and DO nothing. Nice.

Exactly. Or even better, don a pink pussy hat and march! That’ll *definitely* help!

It's a political stunt disguised as community service.

You are sick and obsessed with politics. This group of volunteers did a great service and you can’t stand it.

Wtf? This is a political forum. No one is sick or obsessed for discussing politics here.

You are sick and obsessed with politics for insisting this cleanup was a "political stunt". I guess if it had been a bunch of Democrats cleaning it up (which is most definitely was NOT, btw), you wouldn't have considered that a political stunt. Face it, you are just outraged that a Trump supporter mobilized all these volunteers to clean up an area that Dems weren't about to touch.

It was a political stunt. The organizer's own Twitter bio states: "Hi, I'm Scott. I spent 2 years of my life working to defeat Hillary / If each of us registers 5 new Republican voters, Trump wins in 2020!" You are the one who's sick and obsessed for trying to gaslight.

Oh, please! What do Dems on this forum and elsewhere constantly talk about? Registering new voters! Gotta get the vote out! Gotta win in 2020! And if a group of Dems had organized this cleanup, you’d be singing their praises and don’t even try to deny it. You are just incredibly bitter that it WASN’T the Dems who came up with this plan and actually followed through. Get over yourself and be thankful that *someone* actually stepped in to help - even if it wasn’t Democrats or any local leadership.

I know, right? You'd be thrilled if ACORN took a day out of their busy GOTV schedule and cleaned up some random neighborhood.

ACORN? Is it 2009?

I thought the poster was talking about the streaming service

Still talking about it YEARS later. Seems pretty effective to me.

meanwhile you're kicking Baltimoreans off food stamps. you get no credit when you are actively working to make the poor poorer, and doing this as part of Trump's racist attacks. everyone sees this.

what's even grosser about you is that I am sure there are republicans who do sincerely volunteer in their communities and you're making a mockery of them.
