Let's hold him to it.

(5,124 posts)Notice he does not talk about poor white areas. Why doesn't he talk about about conditions in West Virginia? Why doesn't he talk about conditions in the Appalachias? Why doesn't he talk about conditions in poverty stricken areas of Kentucky where people don't even have running water and electricity? Does he think humans want to live like that?

So the City Tax Assessor has reevaluated the Crime Syndicate's Holdings to the up side and someone does not agree with the valuation on their Tax Statements.
Rinse and repeat NYC,same story just change the Name of the Political Target. Property Tax Statements came out last week for most States and Counties.

(2,692 posts)A few outlets, I suppose, will mention it in passing. Most won't even give it that much attention. Please, please tell me I'm wrong. Trump needs to be asked about this, about what he has done, as the chief of American Leadership, to solve the problems in Baltimore, the problems he said would be easy for a (white) president to solve.
Hypocrisy is a tough, gristly thing to chew on, yet 40 million Americans eat this stuff daily like it was their favorite pizza. In fact, you know what their answer to Trump's inaction in fixing Baltimore would be? I do: "Hey, if you won't fund his wall, don't expect him to use his real genius to fix Baltimore." And, maybe a little soucon of "they oughta send 'em all back to the shithole countries they came from."
