You saying that is not a problem (except maybe to people from Baltimore).
However, the President of the United States saying it...that is a problem and I think myself and others have gone into enough detail in this thread to explain why.
I am a Marylander, born and raised, lived there almost 40 years, and the last home I owned was outside of Baltimore in the suburbs of Anne Arundel County.
Baltimore IS a disgusting dump. "Charm City" lost it's charm decades ago. Even the Inner Harbor, the one area that they always want to point to with such pride, has become dangerous. Innocent tourists have been attacked there recently.
You don't have to go too far back from the Inner Harbor tourist area to be in what Bernie Sanders compared four years ago to a Third World County. It's disgusting, filthy, and blighted. To deny that is downright dishonest.
I had training in Baltimore City once for a financial institution I was working for, for two weeks. We were told in training that it would be best to bring our own lunches and not venture out into the surrounding city area at lunchtime because it was dangerous. Even in the middle of the day. That was almost 30 years ago.
There was a movement in the 1980's to revitalize the more "character" filled areas of the city. I had a co-worker and friend that purchased and was trying to remodel a section of the old row homes that used to have such charm. He gave up on it, sold it for cheap. got the heck out.
I don't agree or like a lot of Trumps tweets. But there was nothing racist about this one, much of what he is saying is correct. We're not used to directness from a President.
Yea, and my sisters townhouse has almost doubled in value in the past 20 years, within walking distance of the Inner Harbor, in a blue collar neighborhood.
TRUMP is gonna win so BIGLY in 2020….it may end the democrat party for good. For the great of the country let's hope so, GET OUT AND VOTE!!!!! TRUMP2020!!!!!

People like you claim that Trump lies all the time and now you're claiming he shouldn't tell the truth? He can't win with some people, thankfully he doesn't need you to win again in 2020.

How 'bout that?
All that proves is your sister lives in a rat infested ****hole that has doubled in value over the course of 20 years, that's not exactly a great return on real estate.
Ah, yes...yet another racist dog who hears the "dog whistles." (Where do they find all of these dogs that hate people of other races, anyway? This whole board is full of people who claim to be "enlightened liberals" who also fully admit to hearing racist dog whistles.)
You do know, of course, that the only critter that can hear these "dog whistles" you admit to hearing is the dog for whom they are intended.
Which, apparently, by virtue of your confession above, is you.
At the GOP convention. They’re all over the place.
