[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sept. 12 2018 - Baltimore Sun quotes Mayor Pugh

[quote]In the footage, Pugh tours an area of vacant houses with city leaders and says: “What the hell? We should just take all this [expletive] down.”
And then:“Whoa, you can smell the rats.”[/quote]

That is not Racist.

April 2019 - Baltimore Sun Editorial says

[quote]Yet, here we are again in a mess of a city. Food containers, balled up clothes, paper, banana peels, plastic bags and tons of other pieces of litter line the shoulders of roads, pile up in alleys and are strewn across fields and yards. Not only is it unsightly and contributes to a rodent problem, but it can create a glum and gloomy feel[/quote]

That is not Racist

Somehow when Trump points it out, the same Baltimore Sun calls him Racist?[/quote]

There is a difference between rats and what Trump was referring to. He was not talking about literal rats when he used the word 'infestation."

[/quote]

Here is his exact quote:  Cummings district is a disgusting, rat and rodent infested mess.  How is that different? Why are you making up the word "infestation" when he did not use that word?[/quote]

That’s not his entire quote and you know it. If you look at the entire thread, it’s pretty obvious that he’s not talking about actual rats and rodents. It would be pretty hypocritical for someone from NYC to criticize another city for having a rat problem.

 Trump only uses words like infested and infestation when he’s talking about places were black and brown people live. Period. And he’s not at all concerned about Baltimore and has zero suggestions about what to do to help it, other than to use it as a cudgel against the congressman who is trying to read his grifting daughter’s emails.
