"The cleanup was attended, in large part, by supporters of President Donald Trump."

So interesting that it took Trump supporters to organize, mobilize, and PAY for this enormous cleanup. They paid for porta-potties, dumpsters, equipment, etc. - to clean up a city they don't even live in.


You are so gullible if you believe this was done for anything but political purposes. This guy is getting a whole bunch of attention he never would have gotten otherwise.


I don't care and the residents don't care if this was or wasn't done for political purposes. The fact is, they worked long, hot, sweaty hours, using their own money, to clean up a city they don't even live in. And all you can do is complain that he did it for "political purposes"? It's as plain as day who cared enough about this place to pitch in and clean it - and who didn't.

I imagine you and your ilk are kicking yourselves that you didn't think of it first.


You're arguing for the same thing you argue against when you claim people get dependant on government handouts.


Um, nope. The government had nothing to do with this group of volunteers coming together. Not one government dime was spent on this cleanup, only private funds belonging to the volunteers (Trump supporters, btw). Which actually speaks very, very poorly for the city of Baltimore and its Democratic "leaders".


This wasn't a group of volunteers, this was a political stunt.



But at the end if the day some alleys were cleaned up.

No. Poverty doesn't lead to trash in the streets. You can be poor and know to not throw trash in the street. It's a complete lack of respect that leads to the mess.


+100
So tired of the excuses.

Agree. My father grew up in a poor neighborhood, and they all took pride in keeping it neat. Of course, that was 80 years ago when poor people weren't given a pass on every bit of bad behavior.


In the 1940, wealth inequality was significantly less.

Maybe poor people get a "pass on every bit of bad behavior" now, but don't the rich as well? Would a man like Trump be elected in 1940?



Well a wealthy New Yorker who was a racist and womanizer was President in 1940!!

Leaving that to you. Hire a few dumpsters and order 2000 black plastic trash bags from Amazon

If it doesn’t spark joy, it goes in the dumpster.

So, yes, this guy is a Trump supporter. He has been one for some time. He is known for that. He also organizes people around the country to GOTV.

He emphasized on his Twitter feed and interviews that this was NOT political. It wasn't Democrat and Republican - it was Americans Helping Americans.
He told people to use the hashtag #AmericansHelpingAmericans. Nothing political. He was using his platform to do something positive.

So, instead of criticizing him for doing something meaningful and helpful with his time, let's celebrate this type of activism.

So you keep insisting. Whatever you want to call it, it wasn't Democrats helping out - was it?


Democrats help out every day, they just don't virtue signal it on social media.


LOL!! That wins as the funnies post on this thread.

My liberal friends are the BEST at virtue signaling.



I volunteer to remove all the “virtue signaling” yard signs from the liberalati of Arlington, DC, and Bethesda.

Because Mr Pizzagate was involved, a few potential additional volunteers stayed away.

There are consequences to being notorious.

This guy can’t shut up about his Trump support because that’s his real motivation here, not helping Baltimore. It’s amazing some people are so willfully blind that they can’t see this.


This is anonymous. What groups
