Nobody cares what your interpretation is. 

My favorite line is the "because he's black and from an area that deals with poverty."  😂😂👍👍Nothing could be further from the truth.  These DNC 💩 holes are the way they are because they HAVEN'T dealt with poverty.  And the whole blaming "racist repubs" won't work because these dumps have been under one party rule for basically as long as I've been alive.  If what the Ds say is true,  life in these places would be pure nirvana, but alas,  there's no place like utopia.

I don't always agree with how Trump uses Twitter but if him calling people out, in this case Cummings and Sharpton, gets someone off their behinds and doing something about their own districts instead of fighting for illegals, then I say Trump should keep calling people out.

Doesn't Sharptoon owe something like over a million dollars in back taxes?  Why hasn't he been prosecuted for tax evasion? ...

Update: He owes a lot more than I thought ... He should be doing hard time like any normal person that did what he did ... why isn't  he in jail? Probably because he would scream RACISM ...

Irrespective of the contextual interpretation of Trump's comments (racist or not), his sentiments about Baltimore itself are dead-on. In fact, I would say he didn't go far enough. Decades of incompetent and criminal city leadership have absolutely destroyed that city. I lived there and worked in some of the worst neighborhoods. The level of grift and blight and negligence (on behalf of civic leadership) is reprehensible.

I love how he uses Twitter. You know exactly where he stands. It has its shock value because we’ve never had a president that spoke from the heart and not through a pc filter, at least not to the public. He probably wouldn’t use it so much if the media wasn’t so blatantly biased. They hate he has a direct line to the People. Is he a little nasty? You bet, but go back and research some of the rhetoric used by politicians 200 years ago. It makes President Trump look like Low Energy Jeb. 

Think he speaks from where he sits. 🤨

I would like to see an audit of what Baltimore actually did with the 1.5 billion dollars of "stimulus" money they got during the Obama years.  I have heard stories of it going into the pockets of campaign donors ... in fact, there should be an audit of all the stimulus money to see where it went ... I would bet very little actually went toward legitimate tangible projects .... my thoughts are that is was primarily a slush fund for dimocrat backers ...

Well, I did read an extensive detailing of what led up to it in the Washington Post. Get yourself a subscription if you want to, also? 

That doesn't make what you claimed factually accurate, does it? Are you familiar with logic? Here's the logic you used:

Some dogs are brown.

Some tables are brown.

Therefore, some dogs are tables.

Also, see the fallacy Post hoc, ergo propter hoc.

I’m glad we brought up Sharpton.  Apparently HIS taxes are the ones we should be discussing instead of Trumps.  

 

Liberal hypocrisy at its finest.  

The double standard reeks of corruption  ... I'm sure his corrupt  buddys Eric Holder and Obummer made sure he wasn't prosecuted .... AG Barr should ensure Sharptoon is brought to justice ... there have been a lot of people over the years that have spent significant time in federal prisons for far less than what Sharptoon has gotten away with  ... it's past time for this corrupt pos to face justice  ...

An open letter to all the butthurt Trump-hating liberals:

Quote

To all the people who let this election break up families and friends let this sink in, I think the last civil conversations we had occurred just days before June 16, 2015.

You were supremely confident Hillary Clinton would win the presidential election; you voted for her with glee. Me, along with millions of others, proudly cast our vote for Donald Trump. Then the unimaginable happened. He won. And you lost your freaking minds. I knew you would take the loss hard—and personally—since all of you were super jacked-up to elect the first woman president. But I did not imagine you would become totally deranged, attacking anyone who voted for Trump or supported his presidency as a racist, sexist, misogynistic, homophobic Nazi-sympathizer.

The weirdness started on social media late on Election Night, as it became clear Hillary was going to lose. A few of you actually admitted that you were cradling your sleeping children, weeping, wondering what to tell your kindergartner the next morning about Trump’s victory. It continued over the next several days. Some of you seriously expressed fear about modern-day concentration camps. Despite living a privileged lifestyle, you were suddenly a casualty of the white patriarchy. Your daughters were future victims; your sons were predators-in-waiting. You threatened to leave Facebook because you could no longer enjoy the family photos or vacation posts from people who, once friends, became Literal Hitlers to you on November 8 because they voted for Donald Trump.

I admit that I was a little hurt at first. The attacks against us Trump voters were so personal and so vicious that I did not think it could be sustained. I thought maybe you would regain your sanity after some turkey and eggnog.

But you did not. You got worse. And I went from sad to angry to where I am today......amused.

As the whole charade you have been suckered into over the last 18 months starts to fall apart—that Trump would not survive his presidency; he would be betrayed by his own staff, family, and/or political party; he would destroy the Republican Party; he would be declared mentally ill and removed from office; he would be handcuffed and dragged out of the White House by Robert Mueller for “colluding” with Russia—let me remind you what complete fools you have made of yourselves. Not to mention how you’ve been fooled by the media, the Democratic Party, and your new heroes on the NeverTrump Right.

On November 9, you awoke from a self-induced, eight-year-long political coma to find that White House press secretaries shade the truth and top presidential advisors run political cover for their boss. You were shocked to discover that presidents exaggerate, even lie, on occasion. SHOCKING! Suddenly you became interested for the first time about the travel accommodations, office expenses, and lobbyist pals of administration officials. You started counting how many rounds of golf the president played.

Suddenly you thought it was fine to mock the first lady now that she wasn’t Michelle Obama. Once you removed your p###y hat after attending the Women’s March, you made fun of Kellyanne Conway’s hair, Sarah Sanders’ weight, Melania Trump’s shoes, Hope Hicks’ death stare; you helped fuel a rumor started by a bottom-feeding author that U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley slept with Donald Trump. You thought it was A-OK that Betsy DeVos was nearly physically assaulted and routinely heckled. You glorified a woman who has sex on camera for a paycheck.

You have learned all kinds of new things that those of us who didn’t willfully ignore politics for the past eight years already knew.

For example, we already knew that illegal immigrants were being deported and families were being separated. But suddenly now it's a bad thing. I wonder why.........

Some of your behavior has been kinda cute. It was endearing to watch you become experts on the Logan Act, the Hatch Act, the Second Amendment, the 25th Amendment, and the Emoluments Clause. You developed a new crush on Mitt Romney after calling him a “sexist” for having “binders full of women.” You longed for a redux of the presidency of George W. Bush, a man you once wanted imprisoned for war crimes. Ditto for John McCain. You embraced people like Bill Kristol and David Frum without knowing anything about their histories of shotgunning the Iraq War.

Classified emails shared by Hillary Clinton? Who cares! Devin Nunes wanting to declassify crucial information of the public interest? Traitor!

But your newfound admiration and fealty to law enforcement really has been a fascinating transformation. Wasn’t it just last fall that I saw you loudly supporting professional athletes who were protesting police brutality by kneeling during the national anthem? Remember how you fanboyed a mediocre quarterback for wearing socks that depicted cops as pigs?

But now you sound like paid spokesmen for the Fraternal Order of Police. You insist that any legitimate criticism of the misconduct and possible criminality that occurred at the Justice Department and FBI is an “attack on law enforcement.” While you once opposed the Patriot Act because it might have allowed the federal government to spy on terrorists who were using the local library to learn how to make suitcase bombs, you now fully support the unchecked power of a secret court to look into the phone calls, text messages and emails of an American citizen because he volunteered for the Trump campaign for a few months.

Spying on terrorists, circa 2002: BAD! Spying on Carter Page, circa 2017: The highest form of patriotism!

And that white male patriarchy that you were convinced would strip away basic rights and silence any opposition after Trump won? That fear has apparently been washed away as you hang on every word uttered by James Comey, John Brennan, and James Clapper. This triumvirate is exhibit “A” of the old-boy network, and represents how the insularity, arrogance, and cover-your-tracks mentality of the white-male power structure still prevails. Yet, instead of rising up against it, you are buying their books, retweeting their Twitter rants and blasting anyone who dares to question their testicular authority. Your p###y hat must be very sad.

But it is your daily meltdowns about Trump-Russia election collusion have been the most entertaining to observe.........

After Robert Mueller was appointed as Special Counsel, you were absolutely convinced it would result in Trump’s arrest and/or impeachment. Some of you insisted that Trump wouldn’t last beyond 2017. You quickly swallowed any chum tossed at you by the Trump-hating media #### CNN-MSNBC-New York Times-Washington Post about who was going down next, or who would flip on the president.

For the past few years, I have watched you obsess over a rotating cast of characters: Paul Manafort, Donald Trump, Jr., Jared Kushner, Carter Page, Reince Priebus, Jeff Sessions, Michael Flynn, Steve Bannon, Sam Nunberg, and Hope Hicks are just a few of the people you thought would turn on Trump or hasten his political demise. "WE GOT HIM NOW! DRUMPF IS GOING DOWN!" But when those fantasies didn’t come true, you turned to Michael Avenatti and Stormy Daniels for hope and inspiration. It will always be your low point.

Welllll........that is I *think* it will be. Each time I believe you’ve hit bottom, you come up with a new baseline. Perhaps defending the unprecedented use of federal power to spy on political foes then lie about it will be the next nail in your credibility coffin.

The next several weeks will be tough for you. I think Americans will learn some very hard truths about what happened in the previous administration and how we purposely have been misled by powerful leaders and the news media.

I wish I could see you as a victim here, but you are not. I know you are smart; you chose to support this insurgency with your eyes wide open.

Trump 2020!!!

Didn't write this. Was copying and pasting from my Facebook, but the link didn't work. Sorry for any misunderstanding.

What’s funny is that the ones in my family who really became vitriolic after the election were the ones who support Trump...

The complete opposite in my circle.
