Trump slams 'Crazy Bernie' for comparing Baltimore to a 'third world country' and tells city's leaders: 'I am in a very beautiful oval shaped office waiting for your call!'
On Saturday, Trump called West Baltimore 'rat and rodent infested' and 'filthy'
The President was criticized by leading Democrats including the House Speaker
Trump's election team dug out clips of Bernie Sanders also criticizing Baltimore Sanders said of the area: 'You would think that you were in a Third World country'
His comments referred to the lack of infrastructure and job opportunities locally
President Trump turned his ire to Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders on Monday as he opened up a third front in his Baltimore battle.
'Crazy Bernie Sanders recently equated the City of Baltimore to a THIRD WORLD COUNTRY! Based on that statement, I assume that Bernie must now be labeled a Racist, just as a Republican would if he used that term and standard!' he charged.
Trump further claimed that he'd be happy to assist leaders of the urban area clean the city up, if they requested his assistance.
'The fact is, Baltimore can be brought back, maybe even to new heights of success and glory, but not with King Elijah and that crew. When the leaders of Baltimore want to see the City rise again, I am in a very beautiful oval shaped office waiting for your call! he tweeted.
Sanders had in 2015 compared Baltimore to a third world country. Yet, he criticized Trump in a Sunday morning interview for zeroing in on a majority-black district in a claim that it's 'infested' and and a respected African-America congressman who represents the area.

Bernie did it in front of black local bigwigs and they lapped it up.
Every place run by democraps is a third world hellhole
Truth is no longer a defense.
According to the LIBs/Dims and assorted pearl-clutchers EVERYTHING is “racisss”. Assuming that is is true...who gives a rat’s a**??? What pathetic nitwits.
Yeah but don’t forget; B.Hussein back then was sending in his community agitators to start riots in a pathetic attempt to nationalize the police. 2 weeks after Freddie Grey died they riot? Plus discounting the actions of the Antifa terrorists, notice how many riots we’ve had in black neighborhoods since Trump took office - zero as compared to B.Hussein when we had them seemingly every month.
Hoe is that “coming back to haunt” Trump?
Yes, here are actual tweets topic 910am search ‘crazy’

You would think the first black President would do something in the 8 years he had. President Trump has only been in office a few years, most of it fending off a phony Russian collusion scam, yet he had already started. He has worked with enterprise zones, gathered business leaders to invest in underserved areas. Lots is already being done.
Headline is wrong. There was no slamming. He was using crazy Bernie as a hammer.
But IT IS a 3rd world sh*thole city, among many other 3rd world sh*thole cities and states within the United States created by and from libtard progressive policies, Mr. President!
Headline is very misleading.
Trump didn’t “slam” Bernie. He’s just pointing out double standard.
Great minds.
It’s not hard to find any city in America that has deteriorated into a slum is ran by Democrats.
Crime in Annapolis?
I suppose it happens, but Annapolis is certainly not a rat-infested turd-world hellhole like Bawlmer.
You mean like Rochester NY....where the high school graduation rate is about 50%.
You’d be safer in most third world countries than in most of Baltimore.
Trump's right on this... Baltimore CAN be brought back. It would be a blessing for all honest citizens living in fear while politically connected thugs run the streets.
As late as 1989, many areas of Chicago still didn’t have 911 emergency calling. Way to go, community organizers.
