He's speaking to his base, as he's given up on getting any votes out of these larger urban cities and usual blue states.

But he's the President of All of the USA, not just those that he won in 2016. He's immature at 73 yrs of age. As President, he's responsible for fixing problems if he thinks he has the ability and assets. For example, his criticism of Baltimore falls directly on his HUD Cabinet Secretary Ben Carson. Why no heat applied to Sec Carson?

If something is wrong w/ California, stop whining you dumb****, do something.

It's your job.

You'd think that that would upset a lot of constituents, but it doesn't seem to,

His job is to represent his voters, not liberals.

Obama never represented conservative interests. I would never suggest that it is the job of a liberal politician to represent me because what would be the point of elections.

you are using rhetoric that has no basis in reality.

Of course not.

You live in a rent controlled apartment, with low rent, in Santa Monica.

If you go downtown in Greenville, Huntsville, etc , the streets are not filthy like San Fran and LA. rats are not running around.

it's a fact that California has become less safe and more expensive and more filthy since Republicans were able to win the governorship and pick up the state in presidential elections.

the high crime areas with low ranked schools in the south overwhelmingly vote Democrat.
Got to make it a point to get to both.

I've stayed in Spartanburg and in Simpsonville, but I've never been to Greenville.

In that case he's not the President but a representative for his voters.

what did trump say that is not true

Obama referred to conservatives who did not vote for him as bitter clingers.

trump said that California cities have some problems. he's not beating up on voters in Cali, he's branding Democrats as responsible for the problems.

Democrats blame Republicans for the problems in the south all the time.

there's no point in belonging to a political party if you don't think it is better than the other party.

is he supposed to say his critics are doing an amazing job, but vote for me in 2020 lol

welcome to the real world and politics.

Trump even thinks the places he lives are a disgrace. Even been to W. Palm Beach? NYC?

Basically, he's anti-American. He thinks we all are a disgrace...except Putin of course.
I disagree with this. I don't think Texas is a disgrace to America. This shooting happened in El Paso. I don't think talking down on Texas is a good idea. Texas has some problems. So does Michigan. So does Alabama.
