Cummings' district is richer than average.

Yeah, Let's look at Baltimore.

The poverty rate has been above the 20% mark for years. From 2010 through 2017 it ran no lower than 21.9% as high as 26.5%. All minorities in Baltimore have poverty rates above 20%.

How about corruption? Oh, that is where Baltimore really gets interesting. Newspaper articles tell us it is a long-term problem and not getting any better. In a poll taken in 2017 32% of Maryland residents state wide said corruption was a problem. In Baltimore that number 57% with 59% saying it was a "big problem" in their own city.

As can be expected with all the corruption the crime in Baltimore is high. Here's a list of the 10 worst neighborhoods.

How about the murder rate in Baltimore? The following chart comes from wikipedia.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crime_in_Baltimore


Year Homicides (City, Number) City, Rate U.S., Rate
2001 256 38.7 5.6
2002 253 37.7 5.6
2003 270 41.9 5.7
2004 276 43.5 5.5
2005 269 42 5.7
2006 276 43.3 5.8
2007 282 45.2 5.7
2008 234 36.9 5.4
2009 238 37.3 5.0
2010 223 34.8 4.8
2011 196 31.1 4.7
2012 218 34.9 4.7
2013 233 37.4 4.5
2014 211 33.8 4.9
2015 344 55.4 5.1
2016 318 51.4 5.3
2017 343 57.8 5.7
2018 309 50.5 5.7


How about Baltimore's schools? Six of them reported that not a single student scored as proficient in math and reading skills. Think about that! Six entire schools without a single student able to do simple math or able to read well. Oh, and these schools push lots of money at the problem. They are not underfunded.

Trump is right on the money. Baltimore is a stinking mess and a rat hole. Elijah Cummings fits right in.

The crime rate in Baltimore is lower than the crime rate at this "rat and rodent infested mess."

Trump should get his own house in order before he lectures anyone else. It isn't Elijah Cummings who remains unindicted only because he hasn't left office yet.

The only time the murder rate in the White House was higher than Baltimore's is was when the WH was occupied by the Clintons. We know how cluttered with bodies their trail is.

That works for me too. Thanks. Youtube locks me out of probably 95% of their videos found on sites other than Youtube. I use hooktube a lot and there are days when every link to a video I click on tells me the video is not available. Youtube is even doing that to me on duckduckgo too. Most days about all I can watch anymore are commercials on hooktube.

We aren't talking about the Trump Body Count; that all took place outside the WH, and mostly before he was president. I'm talking about the record crime rate committed in the WH. Higher than Baltimore's crime rate.

Also, none of the mysterious deaths associated with Trump are actually proven to be his doing. So there is that.

From your link:
Baltimore's rat problem is bad enough that at one point, rats tunneled so intensely beneath a particular area of pavement that when garbage collectors drove over it, their truck sunk up to its axles. Rats in the vicinity took full advantage of the mishap and swarmed the truck, gorging on the garbage inside.

The rat problem at the WH is a bit different: the rats are gorging themselves on our tax dollars:

It's Only May, and the Federal Deficit Is Already Higher Than in All but Five Full-Year Deficits in U.S. History

Remember when he said the tax cut was "going to pay for itself?" Guess who he plans on asking to pay more taxes.

Department of Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson said Tuesday that the purchase of a $31,000 dining set for his office was made for safety reasons and after consultation with his wife, Candy Carson.

Rats of the rodent variety would have been a lot less expensive.

Wow. I'm not even a fan of Trump and I still getthunderstruck by TDS sometimes. Look, I'm sure you're a good guy, and I know people who normally say this come across as pompous, but FOR THE LOVE OF GOD TURN OFF YOUR TELEVISION. Go for a hike. Go a week without using a screen of any kind. Then come back and ask yourself whether you really care about 2.5 million dollars out of an annual budget of trillions being diverted for a parade, or whether you're just caught up in a mass media induced hysteria.

The rats in D.C. have literally been there for about 100 years. Ask ffreeloader about it.

You're right. It does sound pompous. I don't watch TV. I don't even know how to use all the remotes. My wife likes sports, so we have it.

Go for a hike.

I usually go down the backwaters of the Trinity when I want to get away.

Maybe you should have read the entire post. It's not just Trump tossing away millions of dollars for a campaign event (VIP passes were given to republicans and their donors). His massive tax cut for himself and his friends will cost over a trillion dollars in a decade.

or whether you're just caught up in a mass media induced hysteria.

I'd say anyone who cares about America would be talking about corruption on that level.

Last time that many were in the WH was during the Nixon administration.
