A CNN anchor got choked up on air Saturday after President Trump ripped Rep. Elijah Cummings and the city, calling it “a disgusting, rat and rodent infested mess.”

“Donald Trump has tweeted more than 43,000 times. He’s insulted thousands of people, many different types of people. But when he tweets about infestation, it’s about black and brown people,” Victor Blackwell said.

“The president says about Congressman Cummings’ district that no human would want to live there,” Blackwell continued.

“You know who did, Mr. President? I did, from the day I was brought home from the hospital to the day I left for college, and a lot of people I care about still do.”

It’s far from the first time the president’s words have triggered waterworks on CNN. Morning host Alisyn Camerota needed a tissue in January 2018 when discussing the president’s remarks on “s–thole countries.”

“I don’t know why this one makes me so emotional,” Camerota said.

Yeah, I saw this. Sorry Victor, Baltimore is a shitehole. Own it.

Dude, you are usually right on the money - but SF is paradise compared with Balmer. I’ve been in both in the past year and there’s no comparison.

[PLOM...NOT!]

CNN..drama queens

[caww]

They view everything through their racists glasses ....a dirty, rat and vermin infested city as Baltimore is what it is...and Cummings/Obama/and it's leaders use it as a money laundering community....a city now imploded thanks to ‘decades’ of corrupt and inept leadership, crime, and the progressive policies.

Let ‘em crash and burn..

[boycott]

LOL. Such a phony.

We know his azz has done everything he could to get out of crime infested Baltimore.

My guess is, for his and his family’s own safety, he doesn’t even want to live among a lot of blacks.

[SkyDancer]

But mention how it’s run and you’re a racist.

[joma89]

More cry bullying from the left. They want you to shut up and they will do anything to make that happen including playing the victim. It is pure information warfare against us.

Rat infestation? We have a rat infestation and it is by DemonRATs. These corrupt DemonRATs line their pockets from money sent by the Drug Cartels. We are not that stupid we can’t figure that out.

[jonrick46]

Good one! LOL!

[jonrick46]

LOL!

[gundog]

Trump should ask Baltimore’s parents to buy there kids Red Ryder BB guns for Christmas, and deal with the rats the old fashioned American way.

[jonrick46]

I live near Seattle. What a S@@@hole it has become. The entire Left Coast is letting the raw sewage flow right into the ocean. Where is the EPA?

[chris37]

Well I can’t argue that, because I have seen neither.

Actually was just going on what I’ve heard about both places from various news sources.

Rats and rodents are not black and brown people. Learn to read.

Truth sounds like hate to those who hate truth.

“I don’t know why this one makes me so emotional,” Camerota said.

Cause you're a pansy liberal?

But I'm sure it was all just an act, crocodile tears because of your hatred of Trump and everything about him, you just had to turn on the water works to show how evil, bad, and heartless resident Trump is.

Not buying it.
