WASHINGTON President Trump lashed out at a leading African-American congressman on Saturday, calling him a brutal bully who represents a Baltimore-based district that has become a disgusting, rat and rodent infested mess where no human being would want to live.
Mr. Trumps attack on Representative Elijah E. Cummings, a Democrat from Maryland and leading critic of the president, parroted a segment that aired earlier in the morning on Fox & Friends. The president suggested that the congressman was a hypocrite for criticizing conditions in migrant detention centers at the southwestern border when his own district is blighted. Mr. Trump also made a vague and unsubstantiated insinuation of corruption.
Rep, Elijah Cummings has been a brutal bully, shouting and screaming at the great men & women of Border Patrol about conditions at the Southern Border, when actually his Baltimore district is FAR WORSE and more dangerous, Mr. Trump wrote. His district is considered the Worst in the USA. He went on: Cumming District is a disgusting, rat and rodent infested mess. If he spent more time in Baltimore, maybe he could help clean up this very dangerous & filthy place.
Mr. Cummings responded on Twitter shortly afterward, saying that he was a vigorous advocate for his district. Mr. President, I go home to my district daily, he wrote. Each morning, I wake up, and I go and fight for my neighbors. It is my constitutional duty to conduct oversight of the Executive Branch. But, it is my moral duty to fight for my constituents.
The congressman pointed to a hearing that he held on Friday on his effort to legislate lower drug prices, which would help his Baltimore constituents.

I think it may be terminal.
Well see, that is what you get for thinking. Most Americans do want the President to sound like this. It is the non americans that don’t.
President Trump is a breath of fresh air to most right thinking people.

Should be a clue about the poster.
Truth is hate to those who hate truth.
