Smelling Rats in Baltimore

President Donald Trump has been called a racist for having the temerity to note that House Government Oversight and Reform Chairman Elijah Cummings, D-Md., seems to spend more time criticizing him and the U.S. Border Patrol than he does fixing problems in his own home district, which includes about half of Baltimore city.

Why is the president a racist for pointing out what even African American leaders in Baltimore have said about certain areas of the city?

The Washington Times resurrected a comment by former Baltimore Mayor Catherine Pugh, who is African American and was ousted from office over an investigation into corruption.

In 2015, Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., toured West Baltimore as a presidential candidate in the company of African American leaders and residents.

The Baltimore Sun reported this statement by Sanders: "Anyone who took the walk that we took around this neighborhood would not think you're in a wealthy nation. You would think that you were in a Third World country."

Baltimore has averaged 300 murders per year for several years.

Kimberly Klacik, who occasionally appears on Fox News Channel, says she is a journalist and lives in Baltimore.
