It's the same tired garbage they've been spewing ever since anybody criticized Obama - must be racist!
Nobody was calling him racist when he got all up in de Blasio’s ass. It’s just a stupid tactic they use to get what they want like a spoiled ass kid.
[Premium Post] Inner city Baltimore is really run down. No one can dispute that. Crime is high, poverty is high, cleanliness is low. There is NO DOUBT that Democratic leadership AT EVERY LEVEL of government has failed them for decades. This sad reality has played out across literally MOST inner cities of big cities in America. Democratic policies simply do not work. Trump is a genius for opening up this line of debate -- because finally it shines a light of accountability on decades worth of failed Democratic policies. The pity is that truly unfortunate people have to live in squalor and at risk of crime because of all of this. Why do African Americans in these inner cities settle for such awful Democratic leadership? A lot of it, unfortunately, has to do with Democrats relentlessly playing the race card to avoid a critical review of their own political effectiveness. GOOD DAY

Or that he possesses a scintilla of integrity. Better to have some vermin living in your neighborhood than to be one.
U.S. cities with highest poverty levels according to U.S. census data. Baltimore is not on the list... no city in Maryland is on the list. "As would be expected, the majority of these metro areas are in states where low incomes are common. Of the 38 metro areas, 17 are in Texas, Georgia, Louisiana, or West Virginia." https://www.usatoday.com/story/mone...rates-america-cities-highest-levels/37799947/ Nor is Baltimore on this list of worst cities to live, based on population, poverty rate, crime, median home value: https://www.clarionledger.com/story...ces-named-least-desirable-call-home/39006457/ But trump should know about terrible places to live in Baltimore... all he has to do is call his son-in-law... The Beleaguered Tenants of ‘Kushnerville’ Tenants in more than a dozen Baltimore-area rental complexes complain about a property owner who they say leaves their homes in disrepair, humiliates late-paying renters and often sues them when they try to move out. Few of them know that their landlord is the president’s son-in-law. https://www.propublica.org/article/the-beleaguered-tenants-of-kushnerville
This dude^ smh https://www.baltimoresun.com/news/crime/bs-md-ci-usa-today-homicides-20180219-story.html
I love how if Trump says something people here immediately jump to the opposite, look for anything to support the opposite, and ignore reality. Baltimore is a crappy place and dangerous, and people here wanna argue about it cause the orange man said it. Pathetic. Still seeing some salt from all the losing people here have been doing. I reckon as we get closer to 2020 and all the losing picks up, we're going to see more anger and hate around here.
LOL this one is funny https://www.baltimoresun.com/politics/bs-md-sanders-baltimore-20151207-story.html Hoping to reach African-American voters nationally in his bid for the Democratic presidential nomination, Sen. Bernie Sanders on Tuesday toured the West Baltimore neighborhood where Freddie Gray was arrested — and likened the poverty he observed to that of the Third World. The independent senator, who describes himself as a democratic socialist, walked the streets of Sandtown-Winchester for about 20 minutes, joined by community leaders and a swarm of cameras that mostly blocked his view of boarded rowhomes and crumbling marble steps. A handful of residents joined the spectacle, and occasionally broke out in chants of Gray's name.
Fun fact for people who want to vacation in Baltimore: https://nypost.com/2019/04/19/census-estimates-show-baltimores-population-continues-to-plummet/ BALTIMORE — New annual estimates from the US Census Bureau show that Baltimore is continuing to shed inhabitants, bringing the overall population of Maryland’s biggest city down to what it was over 100 years ago. I bet it has nothing to do with the murders. Or the poverty. Or the fact that it's basically cursed to decay under its self defeating voting habits: Vote for Dems who promise dumb poor people free things, they get in power, make them poorer and more desperate. Then they vote for those same stupid promises again, and they get poorer and more desperate. This just loops and then you get what you have today because of this feedback loop where they seek to just make everyone dependent on govt handouts and don't actually spur business development.
Trump could say **** stinks and they would make it a racial issue because it’s brown and then go on to defend the **** saying it really doesn’t smell that bad, smells like roses actually.
Not a Trump supporter (didn't vote for him and won't next time either) but come on - Baltimore is a dump. Rakings per 100k: Murders (2nd) Robbery (1st) Agg Assault (7th) Burglary (5th) Definitely makes my list of top places I would never live. 1st tier cities are: Detroit, E St Louis, Baltimore, Cleveland, any city in LA . 2nd tier cities are: Milwaukee, Memphis, Newark, Stockton, Oakland. If I were born in any one of these cities, the right thing to do would be help fix the issues. But the problems would so overwhelm me that I'd probably just get on a bus, move somewhere else even if it meant working at a Dollar General and living in a trailer to start.
I think everyone forgot about the wire then we realized it was pretty much on point. That scared the hell out of me.
Woosh... You really think the POTUS is tackling the issue the correct way by tweet storms insulting the people of Baltimore? Don't be an idiot like @dachuda86 and think that thinking that Trump is a divisive asshat idiot with zero logical consistency trying to tackle a nuanced issue by tweet storm is the same as saying "Baltimore has zero issues". Think of it this way. The human being with the most clout on the god damn planet, the President of the United States rage comments about a city that he presides over just like a random internet poster with no clout would and that is literally all he is willing to do about a city he believes is infested. What is he doing as the most powerful man on the planet about a city he precides over other than what any random shmuck with a hot take says on an internet comment section. Think about that. Just ask yourself if the actions and words tweet stormed by the president sounds like a guy who genuinely wants to solve problems or is just on a high chair yelling at everyone without doing anything himself?
A black congressman who is appointed to represent his district AT THE FEDERAL LEVEL is being criticized by Trump for not acting at the LOCAL level???? Trump is so stupid he doesn't even understand how gov't is suppose to work. Once again he attempts to deflect by making a racist attack to cover up his ineptitude at the border
