Donald Trump has been getting pounded by the left for his comments about Baltimore. Rather than debate the merits of the situation, democrats have instead chose to once more play the worn out race card. They've even taken to fronting Al "Tawana Brawley" Sharpton as their spokesman.
Now as the dust settles a bit reality starts to creep into view

Baltimore owes Kimberly Klacik a debt of gratitude. She's brought national attention to a sh*t show in her back yard and Donald Trump picked it up and ran with it. He knew something they did not.
Instead of being grateful, left wingers went on the attack against Klacik.
Many commenters on Facebook and Twitter assailed Trump for not doing anything about Baltimore. Nothing could be farther from the truth.

Cummings's congressional district received just under $15.7 billion in grants, benefits and other assistance from the federal government in fiscal year 2018, according to federal awards data compiled by USAspending.gov. While not an insignificant amount, districts like Indiana's 7th (at $16.5 billion), New Jersey's 12th (at $17.2 billion) and Pennsylvania's 4th (at $27.4 billion) all received more money in fiscal year 2018.That's considerably more than the $1.8 billion obama gave to Baltimore in his 2009 stimulus package.

Money alone is not going to turn these $h!tholes around.
Diversity will work.
No, but that money combined with audits will find the thieves with their hands in the till.
Extremely not guilty too!

WTH would Baltimore get 16 BILLION in GRANTS??? They can’t even pick up the TRASH!
Exactly. It’s like the Sopranos episode with HUD.
That's a YUGE amount for only 1 district for only 1 year.
Perhaps a sting operation to bust the commie crook, King Cummings?
Never forget that Nancy (D’Alesandro) Pelosi is a Baltimore native and the daughter of a former Baltimore mayor.
Not guilty? Try running your fingers through her hair and get back to me.
Sounds like a personal problem. Yours.
You would like that? Simple question.
A simple question from a simple minded fool.
How stunningly frisking stupid. Trump walked into a room one day and announced that he wanted to “give” 16 billion dollars that were not his to this ghetto dump? BS. And THANK GOD it is BS, because if it were true, that would be reason for damnation, not praise.
You’re s fool, afraid to answer.
You’re a jackass.
You’re a jackass. Any more names?
