When President Trump referred to Baltimore as a "disgusting rat and rodent infested mess", he could have just as easily been talking about its two-legged Democrat rats as its four-legged Norwegian rats.
Charm City's Norwegian rats (rattus norvegicus) usually only come out at night and munch on trash in the shadows of housing projects, while its Democrat rats (rattus democratus) sashay around in the light of day and munch on taxpayer goodies in the marble houses of government.
If you want to see a good example of rattus democratus in its native Baltimorean habitat, draw the curtains, send the kiddies to bed, and take a close look at Nathaniel T. Oaks. Oaks had spent much of his adult life as an elected misrepresentative in Maryland. He's been a member of more committees, task forces, and subcommittees than anyone can count. These include the Maryland Bicycle Caucus, the Minority Health Disparities Subcommittee, and the Task Force on African-American Entrepreneurship.
In 1989, Oaks was caught stealing $10,000 from his own campaign fund. He was convicted of perjury and misconduct in office, and got off with a suspended sentence and community service.
After automatically being kicked out of the Maryland House of Delegates, Oaks ran for office again, and spent another 28 years in the House. Then, despite his criminal past, he was appointed to the Senate.

All good and important initiatives.*
*: In reality, all just good opportunities for graft and patronage.
my gosh! That’s bigger than my cat! They need wart hogs to take down those filthy creatures!...not cats.
I thought they learned how to steal from their own campaign funds in junior high school. Guy must really be dumb.
Good image! With the spotlight on Baltimore’s corruption racket, I imagine those in Baltimore’s 7th District will stick a fork in King Rattus Democratus Eliah Cummings when they vote him out of office in 2020.
Meanwhile, I hope President Trump uses the resources of his intelligence community to find out the banking institutions they use to hide their ill-gotten money. This may open up a whole can of worms, or, to keep to the theme of this infestation, open up a box of rats.
We don’t call them DemonRATs for nothing.
Someone suggested releasing feral cats. That size one would need bobcats or coyotes. Although some grey wolves would also clear out some other ferals as well.
OMG I cant believe the size of that rat, LORDY, LORDY!!!
17,000 abandoned structures in Baltimore!
OMG with rats that size cats would do no good at all!!! You would need a pack of coyotes!!!
Seems to me people would have figured out ... Democrats have “RATS” in their name. They are obviously an integral part of who they are, they even call themselves DemocRATS. Amazing.
Send in the terriers.
I saw an rat in Chicago one time as big as a raccoon
They should release a few hundred rat snakes. They wouldn’t have a problem with rats of that size.
Ping!
Terrific hard-hitting column.
