House Speaker Nancy Pelosi condemned President Donald Trump’s Saturday Twitter attack on Rep. Elijah Cummings and his majority-black West Baltimore district, deeming it downright racist.

The president’s remarks echo his repeated attacks on Democratic lawmakers of color, including Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez , Ilhan Omar , Ayanna Pressley and Rashida Tlaib . In a racist spate of tweets earlier this month, he urged the congresswomen to “go back” to the “totally broken and crime infested places from which they came.”

“Each morning, I wake up, and I go and fight for my neighbors,” he tweeted. “It is my constitutional duty to conduct oversight of the Executive Branch. But, it is my moral duty to fight for my constituents.”

He can defend himself...look who's 'racist'..

Wheres a denouncement of Bernie? typical pick and choose reporting from Yahoo.

'[T]oday what we're talking about is a community (Baltimore) in which half of the people don't have jobs,' he later told reporters during his trip. 'We're talking about a community in which there are hundreds of buildings that are uninhabitable.' Bernie Sanders

'Anyone who took the walk that we took around this neighborhood (Baltimore) would not think you're in a wealthy nation. You would think that you were in a Third World country,' Bernie Sanders

Only libtards would call that tweet racist.If a area or city is set infested and trashy then it is set infested and trashy. If it is t then call him out on that fact.

Was waiting on the racist tweet! White milk I know racist. Lmao! The race card is used so much now it is like saying hello. People no longer believe it. Better find a new catch word that one is worn out.

That and 2 bucks will get you a cup of coffee... now you can add these liberal Democrats as enablers to a corrupt politician who could give a s*** less about people who have voted him in.... maybe someday black voters will wake up and not just vote for the black candidate

Elijah's going to need tetanus shots after that Trump attack. Trump's basic problem that causes us all so much grief may simply be that he's rabid

Is realDonaldTrump the president of ALL American citizens and ALL American cities? so why his he trashing them? Trump can go back to Europe if he doesn’t like US cities and US citizens
