President Trump wields his Twitter sword to brand Baltimore a disgusting, filthy, rat & rodent infested mess. Democrats leap to defend Rep.

How Trump’s ‘Racist’ Rat-Infested Remark Could Save Baltimore

To the leftists, truth is racism.
“During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act.”

Gents, two quick points. 1) It wasn’t racist. I believe the next day Trump punched Nancy Pelosi for the poor quality of life in San Francisco.
2) I love how effectively Trump changed the subject from the U.S. Mexico border to rat-infested Baltimore. With all the head’s exploding because of his “racist” tweet, the border issue disappeared.
I’ve it said before. Trump is not a racist. He is an equal opportunity offender.(And the offense is often correct)
Scott, the bellwether of any nation’s moral character is abortion. The DNC is the party of evil because it promotes “safe, legal and rare” abortions. The DNC should have imploded at that instant, but it didn’t. This is because the people in that party are under the curse of I Thessalonians 2:11. Democrat-controlled Baltimore will continue to be under this rat-infested curse until its members recognize the evil of this plank and abandon the party or become pro-life and fix the party platform.
The left often says we should emulate Europe. Most of Europe has stricter abortion laws than they promalgate.
Excellent, all. Thank you for telling it like it is.
That was excellent gents. Love when there is so much back and forth discussion.
BTW – props to Scott Ott for watching CNN so that the rest of don’t have to do so. Thanks for stepping in front of that punch for us.
I listened to this 2 times and Bill, I know you said you disagree with Steve but I could not figure our what point you disagree on? Steve was saying Baltimore and cities like it are a bad governance issue which I think is what you were saying? Great commentary by all.
He was agreeing on the point of bad governance, but disagreeing that PDT spoke out (tweeted out?) to create a 2020 issue to run upon. Just that PDT is unwilling to back down when called out.
And what is scary is I’ve sat in on leftist “workshops” and one of the ideas they particularly love is that we should move everyone into walled cities and the only way you can get out is to get written permission of the government to leave the city hives and go out into nature. The idea is that people destroy the planet if you don’t keep them penned up.
If cities are this bad if you can leave the city voluntarily, imagine what conditions will be like if you trap everyone within walled urban enclaves.
This sounds like a monumentally stupid idea, but they are dead serious about rounding up humans in this way to “save” the planet.

Lord. Please save me from pagan religious fanatics trying to save the planet.
Or better, how do I make them look ridiculous?
Just as YOU should get your life if perfect order before you try to fix the world, our elected leaders should be able to demonstrate their ability to get their districts in order before they try to fix the country. For goodness sake, if you can’t fix yourself and your family and then your community, how on God’s green earth can you claim to fix monumental problems on such a grand scale. Fix yourself, then your relationships and family, then try to add something to your community without making matters worse. If we’d all adopt this simple recipe for success, there’d be a lot fewer unintended consequences and a lot less hell.
This is the problem withing telling people that they’re OK the way they are. If you’re OK as is, you’re in developmental stagnation and you won’t grow and learn and become who you could be. You’re not living up to your potential and THAT is a shameful sin.
Thank you for the reminder! Off-subject but somewhat analogously: Congress critters who think that Medicare-for-all is just right for we the people had better be signing themselves up first. Has anyone heard anything about what would happen to health care for those-who-know-best?
We have a single payer government health care in the VA. And just how perfect is that, with the hidden wait times, and other problems? Why don’t the Right bring that up?
I think Donald Trump is right. These representatives need to go back where they came from and fix those places first. Then come to DC and tell the rest of us how it’s done.
Send Nancy Pelosi back to her ancestral home. Baltimore.
Dems are totally thrown for a loop re: this Republican that actually hits back. And hits back effectively. That’s never happened before. I think the older Dems who’ve been in office since Nixon or Kennedy just can’t attune themselves to this new reality and so keep going on as they always have.
This is exactly right. They expect all R’s to be like Mitt when Candy Crowley said he was wrong, and immediately back off. PDT doesn’t back off, he escalates.
I voted for Trump because my hope far outweighed my trepidation.
As for his tweets, big pharma must love him. Are there any Dems left in America not suffering from high blood pressure?
I expect a zoloft shortage.
