It shouldn't be.

How do we address it without telling those people their homes are disgusting? How do we help lift them up?

I would bet many of them would appreciate an increase in minimum wage. How about making sure all Americans have affordable health insurance and access to medical care, and not just emergency care but preventative care? How about sending some funding to these neighborhoods for urban renewal? How about low interest loans for those who want to set up new businesses in poor areas? How about offering free college to all who graduate from high school in blighted areas? How about calling the Baltimore slumlords to task for violations of building codes on their properties? Make those slumlords do upkeep.

Insulting tweets are easy to do and are what lazy "leaders" resort to. Actual leadership and accomplishing results are hard work.


I think you’re dancing around the real issues. How do we convince poor people that being pregnant at 14 should not be their goal? Absentee fathers are NOT the norm? Gangs and guns aren’t the solution?

Hard to change that when it’s been what they know generation after generation.


Yeah - Trump, who abandoned his first two wives and kids, and seems absent from his current family, too, seems like the one to give some healthy tough love guidance on that issue. For sure!

Next up: Shouting "YOU ARE A WHALE" at fat people to encourage them to get "healthy"

Calling them a whale won't work but calling someone racist will.

St. Louis and Detroit are jealous of all this attention you're suddenly giving to Baltimore's problems. Can you spare a little for them?

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

You don't convince anybody.

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”.

Period.


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.



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.


We know you're all big fans of "shut up all who disagree with me" and, no, we are not going to comply. I'm not going to apologize for speaking out against evil and wrongdoing. Sorry if it huwts your feewings or makes you angwy.



But the problem is most aren’t just speaking out against wrongdoing. I’m all for voicing your opinion. What I am not for is immediately labeling Trump voters as racists. If you don’t see the problem with that I guess there is no discussion to be had.


We know - there are some "very fine" Trump supporters. So you keep telling us.

I'll start the discussion. You're on a part with Donald Trump. Congrats!

Excellent - that's the reaction it was supposed to get!

If you get angry at elitists slamming the problems of rural America, you need to get angry at elitists slamming the problems of inner cities.


PP here. I'm not angry about the post--just pointing out the obvious similarity between the poster and Trump--however, poverty and suffering ANYWHERE should never be treated as a joke.

Trump never goes after just any members of Congress. It’s always the minorities.

In other words, you keep it a secret because you know you can't justify supporting racism.
