I'm not always a fan of the way Trump phrases his tweets, but it did get the attention of the country. Maybe this will force those in charge to make some changes. And Baltimore is not alone - there are far too many "once great cities" that have had portions turn into dumps because the inaction of politicians in charge - Chicago, San Francisco, LA.........

I was totally appalled at the way Elijah Cummings treated Keven McAleenan at the hearing last week. He was incredibly disrespectful and hateful toward him - and it was he and members of his party who refused to admit that there was a crisis at the border months ago when others were sounding the alarm. I don't think Cummings is racist or a bad person, but his treatment of McAleenan was unacceptable. He needed to be called out for it.


He can be called out without saying the residents of Baltimore are subhuman.


Nobody said the residents of Baltimore are subhuman.


Actually, they did. Stop lying.


Please post exactly what was said. TIA.


DP, but this is a dog whistle. Words and phrases are being used without explicitly using the N-word, but it is what is implied by the specific words and phrases. If you want to take the conversation as literal - rat infestation in Baltimore, that is your choice, but the racists know what the President meant, and many of us know what he meant as well.


That is such Bull$hit. There ARE areas in Baltimore that ARE rat infested. Even the residents there will tell you that.
Quit trying to see race in every damned comment. We know you all are big on identity politics, but not everybody sees race in every issue.

Just because you say it's bull$hit, doesn't make it so. And just because you demand people to stop calling out racism, doesn't mean they will. You know what will make them stop? When Trump stops being racist.

It is a racist comment only if you twist it and interpret it to make it fit your agenda.

Don’t need to. People with reading comprehension skills and half a brain know what he said. And they don’t need someone else telling them what he “actually meant”.

Yes, they know what he meant. They just don't want to admit it. Probably because they're ashamed, just like there all those secret Trump voters that don't want to tell anyone they're voting for Trump.

“No human being would want to live there.”

I have friends who choose to live in Baltimore. If they are not human beings what are they?


Do they live in the sections with squalor and rats?


As a matter of fact one of them does live in Cummings' district. There are some rats in the neighborhood, and some trash, though it's not any more shocking on his street than in other big cities across America.

He wants to live there because 1) it's where he grew up 2) he has a lot of friends there 3) he can afford a house there and 4) his mother lives a few blocks away.

So, here is an instance of someone who wants to live in the area of Baltimore Trump says no human being would want to live in. Do you agree with Trump that my friend and his neighbors who want to live in their neighborhood aren't human beings?

I’m a “secret” Trump voter. I don’t keep it a secret because I’m ashamed. I keep it a secret because I’ve got better things to do than listen to the crap that liberals will unleash on me when they find out who I voted for. If you kept your sanctimony and vitriol to yourself we’d all be a lot better off.

Even if it weren't racist (which it is), it is elitist to the max. "No human being would want to live" in the neighborhoods Trump is attacking. Do those residents have a choice to live wherever they want? Does your neighborhood have apartments where people making minimum wage can afford? Does your neighborhood have homes that someone making $40k a year can afford to buy?

I'm sure most people want to live in a large, elegant, brand new (or completely remodeled) home in a pristine neighborhood with absolutely no crime, good access to stores and restaurants and public transportation, surrounded by beautiful parks and greenery. How many Americans can afford that dream?

Must be nice when you're a millionaire like Trump who can live wherever he wants to feel free to sneer at people for "choosng" to live in one of Kushner's slummy apartment buildings.
