If Baltimore politicians want to make a dent in the massive rodent infestation, all they have to do is require daily garbage pickup.
But they don’t - and they won’t. Sad.

I've lived in Democratic Socialist run countries. They were very nice.

Video footage of Mayor Catherine Pugh touring an East Baltimore neighborhood has gone viral after she is heard making some indelicate remarks.

The segment, which looks back on the mayor’s violence-reduction initiative rolled out last year, was filmed last week and aired this week on Fox 45.

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.” “Whew, Jesus.”

“Oh, my God, you can smell the dead animals.”

You really think this is the same thing as what Trump said? It isn't.

Can you please post what Trump said? I'll give you a hint, it did not mention people, or use the word "infestation". It's a lot closer to what Pugh said than what you "think" he said.

DP, I'll give you another hint. If you think he was literally talking about rats, then you are not very sophisticated about dog whistles and underlying racial insults.

Or you are so enamored of the term dog whistles that you hear them in your head.

The Baltimore Sun called it rat infested, was literally talking about rats.
Orkin Pest Control called it rat infested, was literally talking about rats
Mayor Pugh called it rat infested, was literally talking about rats

Donald Trump called it rat infested, wasn't literally talking about rats? So confused.

Again, Trump is the only one who did so insultingly. That is something none of you all have managed to address.

DP. This is utter BS. His exact words were: “Cumming district is a disgusting, rat and rodent infested mess.” Exactly how do his words somehow hold some kind of nefarious “racial” undertone, but the other statements about rats don’t? Honestly, don’t you see how utterly crazy you sound when you insist everything is racist? What about Trump’s statements were false? Nothing.

1: Liberals have nothing to say but scream racist, racist, racist!
2: Most crappy neighborhoods run by Democrats, what does that tell us ?
3: Free college, free health care for minorities and illegals =VOTES!

I’m glad to be awake and not let these Socialists enable and take my dignity away.

I'll take a socialist over a racist any day of the week.

This is coming from someone who loves Baltimore, faults and all.

Wrong-o.

We got to Baltimore all the time. It's a great city, faults and all. And I would never call it disgusting.

Exactly which neighborhoods do you go to?

Lots of them. Including Middle East/Eager Park.

What about you?

You haven’t encountered any dead (or alive) rats?

No. But I've seen them in McPherson Square.

"disgusting", "mess", "no human being would want to live there". Yes, I must be crazy to think Trump is racist just because he only uses insults like these towards a black man's district (which encompasses a lot more than just west Baltimore). Or because he said John Lewis's district is "crime infested" and in "horrible shape". And that both black men should go back to their districts instead of performing their Constitutional duties of oversight of his administration. Yes, you've convinced me, I sound utterly crazy

The fact that YOU can't see how insulting his words and tone are says everything about you. Do you in general have problems with social clues?

By the way, do you think he included his slumlord son-in-law's properties in his sweeping claim that the district is a disgusting, rat and rodent infested mess? What that a barb aimed at Jared?
