You talking about the typical orange man bad rant above that?
Sorry, didn't find it interesting.
I do agree he doesn't give a shit about Baltimore. Obviously, neither do the Democrat politicians who have ran the place forever.

Indeed. Only a fool would seek knowledge from the ramblings of a foolish man.
An attack on one is an attack on all? Sorry, I don't subscribe to that theory. I'll meter out defense or abjection based on the merit of the comment, not on who said it.
Cummings took a shot at him by proxy by attacking public servants doing their job and following the new policies, which is a shit move by Cumming's if you ask me. Why are you slamming public servants who don't have a say in anything?
So, Trump took a shot back at Cummings - directly. Welcome to politics my friend.
Counterpoint: 48 hours later, and one would think Cummings would have had his staffer's list TWENTY great things he has done for the people of Baltimore and send out a press release to every news agency.
And yet ... crickets. I guess sometimes even a piece shit is right every now and then.
Calling Baltimore a disgusting, rat and rodent infested mess is race-baiting?The president is race-baiting and you're encouraging debate on the distraction of the day. The topic should not be legitimized. Seriously though.
It's a statement of fact.
Two black Mayors in 8 years have resigned under corruption scandals. TWO in EIGHT YEARS!
Freddy Gray's killers were allowed to walk by a Black prosecutor.
In the resulting riots, the city's Mayor didn't squelch them - she said, "No they deserve to vent" as they went around destroying 10's of millions of city and private property. Great leadership skill there!
The city has the lowest school and test scores in Maryland despite having the 5th largest school budget in America!
Last week like 1/6th of the city had no water and they couldn't even get it fixed for two weeks.
etc. etc. etc.
Look if you haven't been to Baltimore, then you're not qualified to even discuss this. I'm there several times a month. I was there TWICE last week alone - once for Hamilton and then to meet with someone Hopkins.
I'm feeling you bro. These CBC cats are useless.
Increasing becoming the most worthless black political organization around. Maybe ahead of the Urban League, but behind the NAACP.
Do you know how many CBC functions in DC I attend?
It's like a big Frat Yard day mostly.
There's very little serious discussion or strategy going on ... 85% of just there to be seen and waiting for the gala or party later that night.
But I have hope for them ... so I still attend.
What other places has Trump similarly attacked?
Cheers!
Say's Baltimore's 5th Mayor in 8 years.
(And yes, I'm counting Rawling's twice because she really subbed in for Dixon when she was ousted for corruption.)
Hmmmmm.... off the top.
Chicago when they were hitting new homicide records every month
San Francisco
El Salvador
Venezuela
Mexico
North Korea
Haiti
and now Baltimore.
Trump has a way of making these fools attempt to defend the indefensible. Taking.up the media time away from shit he's acting signing. And.these fools keep calling for it because they've been on shaky ground for a while.
Plus the districts represented by "the squad" and John Lewis's district.
All majority-minority or minority-led except San Francisco, in majority-minority California.
It's racist bullshit. The responsible response is attacking racism, not debating the merits of each attack while ignoring the context.
Here’s how this works.
Cummings took a dirty approach to hitting Trump by flaying a public servant who was merely doing his job as instructed by current WH policy before a public hearing before Congress.
Trump hit back by flaying Cummings for NOT DOING his job for the city of Baltimore.
His description of Baltimore and Cummings’s 30 year tenure w/respect to severing Baltimore, despite its unvarnished language, while sweeping, is unflinchingly largely accurate.
So explain to me in logical and honest terms how what he said about Baltimore’s condition is racist?
I’d support your assement if he isolated on one section of Baltimore or called out a neighborhood. But he mentioned Baltimore in whole - and there are plenty of rat infested white neighborhoods in the city. West Side. Eastpoint. Western Greektown. The section that borders Dundalk (I forget the name). South Canton. Etc etc.
There is this guy I've been following on Twitter for years, BMoreDoc. If you don't follow him, I highly recommend it. https://twitter.com/BmoreDoc
He's been highlighting issues in MD for years, from redlining, discrimination, lead poisoning and environmental racism.
I don't recall the percentages, but there is a huge population there with lead poisoning. So we are dealing with a damaged population prone to erratic behavior to begin with. Many have received payouts but you have businesses preying on them, similar to JG Wentworth where people who have settlements can get lump sum payouts. Those folks are getting fleeced and many are considered to have diminished mental capacity due to the lead poisoning and are still able to enter into those programs. No one is protecting them.
Symbolism is very important. We had Obama for 8 years. An intelligent, loving family man with a beautiful black wife and daughters. For 8 years, he stood in direct opposition to all the negative stereotypes about black folks.
Trump is an equally powerful symbol for WS. His winning was framed as a win against Obama, backlash to the first black president. While Obama emphasized unity, Trump is trying to divide folks and make them believe all their problems are the result of black and brown folks in this country.
I've read some of the comments in the aftermath of his attacks on the squad. People saying they are glad he is no longer half stepping in this white nationalism but telling black folks to go back to Africa.
These fools can keep thinking his "tell it like it is" rhetoric is a good thing. Next thing you know it will be version 2.0 of this:
You’re giving him too much credit. He was never strategic and barely tactical and now he has dementia. Trump isn’t the mastermind of shit and the only thing protecting him is the white power structure which is powered by the blue.
The groundwork for the so-called black community to be skeptical of the Democrats was laid by the last administration and has little to do with Trump. The only thing Trump showed the so-called black community was how full of shit the last president was that said he couldn’t help the so-called black community because “we don’t understand how government works”, “the POTUS has checks and balances”, and he was “the president of America and not black America” all while delivering for almost every single group. Now that Trump is showing what a POTUS can do, many are starting to realize that we got conned and are taking a step back and reassessing the situation.
First, Trump is lawless, Obama wasn't. He was a lawyer and wasn't going to do anything illegal or that wouldn't stand up in court, and even stuff that was questionable such as Daca, had sound reasoning and was well thought out.
Second the base supports the GOP no matter what they do. Obama lost support shortly after the aca was passed. Mostly white liberals wanting to teach him a lesson because the aca wasn't exactly like they wanted and because they didn't think he was moving fast enough on gay and other issues. Also black folks sitting out because they don't understand the importance of the midterms.
The GOP gerrymandered their asses off. When the scotus and gutted the voting rights bill, there were not enough dems to get a law passed to enable new protections. No dems to strengthen and tweak the aca, raise minimum wage or push through an immigration bill or all the other stuff on the liberal wish list. Laws that were supposed to take effect were able to be rolled back and stopped like the overtime law and the financial one that stated investors have to work for their clients best interest, instead of selling clients bad investment that were used to line the pockets of other investors. It's not enough to vote dems to get power for a year or two. They have to be able to roll back all the stuff the GOP breaks and also move forward on progressive agendas.
Obama had a Congress trying to block stuff that benefited their own people just to deny him the optics of a win or success. They were trying to investigate everything they could just to keep a headline going that his administration was somehow shady and corrupt.
The GOP is not wanting to hold Trump accountable. Checks and balances only work if you have someone willing to actively check. The GOP wanted to police everything Obama did, from the cost of travel to his choice of condiments. Total silence on Trump running up his travel bills. Obama was subjected to selective policing just like black folks in stop and frisk areas. You know white folks have all the guns and drugs, but the ones harassed are the black residents.
I think Obama could have done more on some issues, especially in his second term. He still didn't have the numbers in Congress, but he could have used his bully pulpit better.
The thing is, when he tried to be tough, he wasn't attacked just by the GOP, but by dems also. Mitch McConnell denying him a scotus pick was another event that energized white supremacists and served as a symbol of a win over a black man.
The situation Obama was in is not at all like what we have with Trump. We can't just win the presidency, we need large majorities in both houses for more than 4 years. Right now we have folks wanting to cede power without a fight. Who needs voter surpression when folks are talking themselves and their neighbors out of voting?
The president is race-baiting and you're encouraging debate on the distraction of the day. The topic should not be legitimized. Seriously though.
the amount of so called black people who decide to give this racist ass president
its like watching a black person fight and argue for the Confederacy....and wear its uniform
No one is fighting for dude. Conversely being frank about the condition of a city isn’t racist.
Some of y’all need to do better muting your emotional triggers.
What specific president cared about the black community or any politician for that matter?
Nah muthafucka. I'm not gone let your ass tip toe back into this thread like a little church mouse. Bitch I Said:
Post that proof bitch. I don't want to hear all that shit. Post that proof. The next shit you post better be the video proof of President Obama saying all that shit you said he said. Don't write a check your ass can't cash. Muthafucka!
Where is the proof?
I guess you thought you would wait a bit and sneak back in this bitch. I don't thinks so hoe.
This shitface is going all in on this race shit. So many coons and crackas will take the bait. Just look at the posts on here.
I told kats this shit is about race. These muthafuckas are too naive or either crackers posing as black people. Why is Trump not attacking Mitch Mcconnell for his high meth/opiod use in Kentucky or the high food stamp rate among whites in that state? Why is he not attacking Republican congressman who are dealing with high opiod / meth death rates among whites?
I’m not posting shit. Fuck you bitch. Like I gotta prove something to you cause I don’t think the way you like. Fuck you cocksucker. But if you’re pro Obama you don’t have to show anything. Eat shit.
He's trying to divide the black community and not do jack shit regarding Russian interference in the upcoming election. Giving his rotten ass the best chance to remain president.
Just like I though you EMPTY nothing but shit talking ass bitch!!! YOU AIN'T SHIT!!!! You don't have the fucking proof because IT NEVER HAPPENED. You do just like those Fox News sons of bitches...MAKE SHIT UP!!
Now Go Fuck yourself HOE!!!! You can go now!
Megatron X: THE BGOL BITCH WHO WROTE THE CHECK HIS ASS COULDN'T CASH!!! NOW GET THE FUCK OUTTA HERE

Trump has a very clear track record on his choice of targets to label as "infested." Baltimore is thought of as a black city. Just like every other place he has described as infested is associated with minorities. To claim Baltimore does not connote blackness is some Kellyanne Conjob Bullshit that I'm not going to waste time on.
Im so glad Trump said that.. So NOW it can be discussed and change can occur..
He put that place on center and front Street..that area is not that way by happenstance..
Under capitalism poor neighborhoods and disenfranchised people must exist or capitalism can't...
But I hope this motivates a lot of people to change..
Trump is such a fuckin idiot shittin
On a community that he presides over..

WRONG!!! Try again!!
And look at you.....Bringing your bitch ass in here like Captain Save A Hoe!!!
But there seems to be no interest in powering change let alone even discussing the issue but just complaining about Trump.
Look at this comments in this thread as an example.

Trump is race baiting...just because some sections of the city fit Trump's description does not negate the race baiting angle...Trump's race baiting should not make Black politicians immune from criticism for their part in what's going on in the places they govern...let's not pretend however that if Cummings and his ilk were to begin to do what is really necessary to transform Baltimore, people who look like Trump (maybe even Trump himself and definitely his son in law) would put up every roadblock in the world to stop it

Obama is full of shit. He was specific when it came to Native Americans. He’s specific when it came to Wall Street. He’s specific when it came to Daca and Hispanics. He’s specific when it comes to Jewish people and Israel. But these coons will say that he’s the president of all people.
This is why I don’t argue with fools. They still protecting this dude after 8 years of nothing and neglect. This is why negroes can’t complain about Trump. When it comes to Ados you see how obama was dancing around their issues and making it about all people.
Cadbury egg head, Cummings cares nothing about blacks in Baltimore but he cares about Hispanics at the border. Trump was right to tell him that he has to fix up his own people B4 he can talk anything.
Ouch, the only thing he could do was type an emotional laffing emoji as response.
He's the fag we all thought he was.
