Think Trump hasn't done anything for Baltimore? Think again

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.

Newsweek:

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.

No, but that money combined with audits will find the thieves with their hands in the till.

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.

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.
