WASHINGTON - President Trump is defending himself against accusations of racism, claiming he’s 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 congressman’s 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 he’s 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 Nation’s great African American people,” he added.

Press: Insulting the press is so racist!
Right! Since when is black skin made out of Teflon? Cummings is a bigoted anti-Semite and a rotten crook! He should have been in jail long ago.
It’s so refreshing having a President who tells the truth instead of telling people what they want to hear.
Not just double down — triple, quadruple, whatever ... all leading up to the tipping point where white America — accompanied by responsible minorities — demands that about 10,000 leading lights of the Left be exiled for life.
They’d be in jail were they to be judged on the content of their character, so they hide behind the color of their skin.
Bingo!
And with that the Race Card becomes detrimental to the democrats.
Keep pounding that nail Mr President!
Under the jail.
He speaks the truth! no wonder we love him.
Making excuses for someone because of their race is the worst kind of racism
Not to mention Cummings’ wife is knee deep in corruption with that phoney charity of hers.
Democrats - rotten Party to the core.
“In reality, solving the problems of these urban districts would not be advantageous to the people who currently represent them in congress.”
True. Democrat politicians have never really needed to solve the real problems faced by their constituents. They have always been able to take black voters for granted - along with blue collar workers.
But that is all coming to an end - thanks to President Trump.
Candidate Trump’s initial 2015 attack on open borders, job-killing regulations and foolish trade policies was designed to trigger a certain reaction from the Democrat Left. He chose his words carefully, purposely lacing his comments with politically incorrect language - he wanted them to call him a racist - he wanted them to call his supporters racist. He wanted to call America racist. And they have done just that.
In triggering that reaction, President Trump has successfully played out one of the most devastating political strategies in the history of mankind:
He says “America First”, and “Make America Great Again”, but he says it knowing the Democrats hate him and will do anything to distance themselves from him and oppose anything he says or does. Thusly, he controls them like puppets on strings. He has actually baited the Democrats into uttering words like “Blame America”, “America was never Great”! He has the Democrats embracing absurd political positions just to prove they are the opposite of him. He has them committing political suicide.
Specifically, our President has driven a huge wedge between the Democrat party and American workers, especially black Americans, who suffer immeasurably from open border policies and globalism. Even Hispanic Americans who are here legally can see the stupidity of open borders and globalism.
It may take several election cycles for this profound political sea change to fully manifest, but the Democrats have been dealt a huge blow and they don’t even know it, because, weirdly, they listen only to their own propaganda. They believe their own push polling that shows Uncle Joe kicking Donald Trump’s butt. I don’t think so....
One thing that makes me think 2020 will be a huge victory for President Trump: In my fifty years as an adult, I have been always been a very outspoken conservative; well-informed, highly independent and reasonably articulate. I’ll get into an argument with anyone about anything.
But in the last few years, even I find myself deciding to shut my pie hole rather than say what I think. It’s not out of fear, or cowardice, it’s just that I am so weary of hearing the ugly and hateful things people say about President Trump, his family, and anyone who would support him. It just makes me sad. So I maintain a much smaller circle of trust.
Then there is safety for my family. In past elections, it never occurred to me that a yard sign or bumper sticker might lead to vandalism, or worse - but now I’m certain that it would.
I figure if someone as outspoken as me has been somewhat “silenced”, I can only imagine how many tens of millions of others must be in a similar place - not necessarily broadcasting their feelings - but just really, really, really looking forward to a certain Tuesday, some fifteen months from now, when they can get into that election booth and pull the lever for President Trump. I can’t wait.
He really deserves a Reagan style landslide, the horrible things he’s put up with.
Always!
To POTUS Trump: IKR!?
President Trump is not a racist he’s a realist.
“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.”
Why?
Pandering is for dems.
You don’t think they can figure it out on their own when he stomps a hole in the failed leadership they already have?
The rats only have the race card and it’s not working.
No minds or thoughts, just hate.
Because they are.
What has the MSM and Democrats flummoxed is that calling a leftist or “person of color” a racist is simply not done.
That privilege is only afforded Democrats.
The Race Card was cancelled on January 20, 2009, and is non-renewable.
Time to play the child molesters card on them. We can handles racist, but pediofiles, we kill them!
I don’t mind the race being thrown at me but, when your best friend of 30 years does it for about 12 years after saying Vendome’s dead mother wasn’t a very good Christian for supporting and voting for Trump...
Well, then it’s over....
I keep telling these morally vacuous idiots(redundant) this Civil War they are creating will not be like the last one.
You have no principles your fighting for.
Everything you claim is a slight is an invention.
We will not tolerate being spoken to as if you are superior to us in anyway, moreover, about that figment of your imagination.
hated to end the friendship but...my peace and tranquility are more important
