The Trump campaign uncovered video Wednesday of Maryland Democratic Rep. Elijah Cummings calling his district in Baltimore “drug-infested” in 1999.
“This morning, I left my community of Baltimore, a drug-infested area, where a lot of the drugs we are talking about today have already taken the lives of so many children,” Cummings said during a 1999 congressional hearing. “The same children that I watched 14 or 15 years ago as they grew up now walking around like zombies.”
“This is only 40 miles away from here,” he added.

Uh Oh...how’d they not get rid of that? hahaha
What a racist :-P
How unfair to use his own words against him. Unfair
So he admits that it was his fault?
Who you gonna believe?
Elijah or your Lying Elijah eyes?
Cummings calling Baltimore "drug infested", calling those on the streets, "Zombies".☺

Cummings walks around like a zombie on his best day. What a waste of human flesh and taxpayers dollars.
Now it’s a drug, crime, and rat-infested place. Congressman Cummings, just how have you helped your district to move on from 1999? Care to inform us?
Does he no longer live in the district? Or maybe he lives full time in DC now?
Elijah Cummings hates black people.... : )
I was wondering where Cummings lived, did a search, and found this tidbit from 2015:
Rep. Elijah Cummings' House Catches Fire
I wonder if he still lives there. Turns out, he never filed the required paperwork with city and state authorities for the rental unit he has owned in West Baltimore for years.
Cummings failed to file state, city paperwork for rental unit
And back in 2014, I dug up this article on FR, about his owning $30,000 in back taxes:
Petard. Hoisted.
Referring to black people as zombies is racist. Oh the inhumanity!
I’ve looked with no success but I’d bet it’s a cushy McMansion somewhere far beyond the benighted Bawlmer ‘burbs.
I wanna see a photo of HIS house.
Can’t find one, anywhere.
Must be an embarrassing secret.
It's like the Texas Chainsaw Massacre, except it's Maryland and DC.
