WASHINGTON - President Trump is defending himself against accusations of racism, claiming hes just the latest target of a party that plays the race card, as he leveled criticism against Rep. Elijah Cummings, D-Md.
Trump called out Cummings on Saturday, slamming him as a brutal bully for how he spoke to border patrol officials, and said that the congressmans Baltimore district is in FAR WORSE shape than the situation at the southern border. That rebuke resulted in claims of racism from Democrats, including House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, but Trump pointed out that hes hardly the first to get accused of racism, with the speaker herself recently in the middle of a similar controversy. ...
Someone please explain to Nancy Pelosi, who was recently called racist by those in her own party, that there is nothing wrong with bringing out the very obvious fact that Congressman Elijah Cummings has done a very poor job for his district and the City of Baltimore. Just take a look, the facts speak far louder than words! Trump tweeted Sunday morning. The Democrats always play the Race Card, when in fact they have done so little for our Nations great African American people, he added.

For me Cummings is the latest argument for term limitation. I understand he has been in Congress since 1996. It must be nice to have a job where you can sit around, do almost nothing for 23 years, and get paid $174,000 a year for it.
Best President since Washington. He tells the truth whether it is politically correct or not.
George W. Bush RACIST
John McCain RACIST
Mitt Romney RACIST
Nancy Pelosi RACIST
Racist doesnt mean a thing anymore.
Trump is dismantling the LIE with ZERO help from Republicans at large.
Pulling the race card is used to deflect from any issue they won’t, can’t, or refuse entirely to address.
The Dems are trying to get those bases that Obama had.....and it's not gonna happen.
So in the end, it's all about "Get out the vote".
The 2016 election is the ONLY election I had to wait for more than 10 minutes to vote...like over an hour.
If it's 2 hpurs next time...I'll be even happier.
AND s you can see....we need the Presidency, the House and 60 Senate seats.
“When the Left accuses someone of racism, their hidden presumption is the person is not racist. After all, a true racist is proud of being racist. Non-racists become defensive and disavow the charge. So ‘the race card is a false accusation knowingly deployed against non-racists’
....Dinesh D’Souza
No pun intended but to the left the ‘race card” is definitively their trump card.
The stooges in the media are obviously sexist. Notice how the MSM kick the racist tweet attacks on the squad to the side in favor of protecting a black man from racist tweets. The media needs expand its use of racist to include protecting white leftists from Trumps racism too. I just know Trump somehow harbors racist feelings about Slo Joe.
That has always been the case. The tools have been playing that card for 50 years now. What I don’t understand is why ANYBODY pays any attention to that ploy after all this time?
Seriously.
I have the solid opinion that whenever some man-bun wearing limp dick utters the word “racist” they should immediately have their larynx crunched.
When Trump is attacked as a racist, he should respond by pointing out the things he has done to help Blacks.
For example, closing the southern border would help inner-city Blacks immensely by preventing hordes of illegal aliens from flooding their cities, thereby making jobs harder for Black residents to find, and causing increasingly overcrowded schools, hospitals, and housing availability, thereby curtailing such services for Blacks.
Why can’t Trump explain this? Why can’t he explain that these problems have caused closing the border to become one of his top priorities? Doing so could cause at least some Black hearts and minds to come to his side for his re-election.
The strategy of using Blacks like Elijah Cummings as well-deserved punching bags is okay up to a point. But if he wants to expand support from Blacks and those who genuinely want to help Blacks, he needs to get serious and explain what’s going on.
The word ‘racist’ needs to be etched out of human consciousness forever.
Anyhow, when the communist chinese and radical islamists make their move against America, after the big quake, and nukes within, they won’t discriminate, they will try and kill us all just the same.
Trump is a genius. After this weeks failed Mueller hearings, he is purposely going after an outspoken black congressmen in the hopes of trying to get the democrats to overreach and start impeachment proceedings against him....BRILLIANT!!!
I think the American Electorate is becoming Numb to the constant charge of Racism every time a Minority is criticized. It is becoming an old and tired charge used every time a Liberal is subjected to the truth. It is kind of like the old broken record and I believe it has seen it’s best days as a political weapon.
Of course they play the race card. It’s one of the few remaining to them.
Well the colored ‘perpetually minded victim’ population will always jump on any racial issue, true or not.....that's what they do....and the The DemoRat racialist “Pimp” Politicians will always fan those embers for their own causes. Then you have the Hollywood cesspool sees an opportunity to be “noticed”, which their egos cannot do without.....and they then keep the stories in the media 24/7.....and the media LOVES to use it all to oppose our President.
Trumps election proved the voter wasn't paying race issues any attention.....the dems know they lost the black voters to Trump so the're working very hard to make him look like he's racist....and will do so out of thin air.
Never cry wolf Dems.
Has Mittens come out and denounced Trump yet? I’m so ashamed that A-hole is one of my Senators!
