Be warned. Trump is intentionally picking fights with the least popular and most extreme democrats and it's working. The fight is on for the moderates and Trump is trying and succeeding (so far) in framing himself against the worst of the democrats with the biggest mouths and furthest left ideas. Dems need to be REALLY careful because they hate Trump so much I don't see them making smart choices lately. Almost as if some just view it as impossible that Trump could win in 2020. That echo chamber cost them 2016.
Be warned -- like it is some secret.

Last night he claimed the 'squad' is running the Democrat party.

The only people who believe his bull are the people who wouldn't vote anything but Trump/Republican.

The votes that matter aren't easily influenced by his grandstanding.

Republicans hated Obama so much they didn't make the brightest choices.

You're right, everyone knows there's a ton of Trump supporters roaming the streets of Baltimore at night in bright red MAGA hats looking for houses to rob.

But I thought POTUS lied and was racist for pointing out the truth that Baltimore is crime and rat infested?

That's because you misunderstood or misrepresented the outrage -- check your media source.

The outrage was his telling another person of color to 'go back'.

Also while the conditions in Baltimore are rough and EVERYONE knows that.....there are fine people who live there and Trump's tone attacking the community suggested these people were living where nobody else would.

That's the racist part.

It wasn't calling out Baltimore's faults -- it was the tone, the personal attack.

The spin that the rage was about Trump lying about the situation in Baltimore is something Trump fans and pundits have made up to divert the attention away from the original outrage.

I feel bad for him. I've had my car burglarized and it sucks. But it's funny considering is just highlights Trump's talking point.


Even the Deputy Police Commissioner in Baltimore was robbed at gun point in broad day light...and the Dems are still in denial and even worse the Black Community still feels that these people are the best ones who can fix the problem. Unbelievable!

I don't get this ^^^ at all. The guy is a victim of a crime and you think it is something to gloat over?

Hayley just gave Trump some shade with his tweet about the robbery.

For those that are too lazy -- she posted "This is so unnecessary " in response to Trump's tweet.

Be mindful Hayley is a smart woman & has tried to stay on board with Trump. This is a big personal criticism of Trump's behavior.
