"Trump's Lies and Racism Never End": Sanders Hits Back at President's Attacks on Baltimore



(snip)

Sanders, who is running for the Democratic nomination for president to take on Trump in 2020, was quick to reply, drawing a distinction between the president's racism and the senator's efforts to support the working class.

"Trump's lies and racism never end," said Sanders. "While I have been fighting to lift the people of Baltimore and elsewhere out of poverty with good paying jobs, housing, and healthcare, he has been attacking workers and the poor."

(snip)

In response to Trump's tweets—including one in which the president referred to Baltimore as "a disgusting, rat and rodent infested mess"—city paper The Baltimore Sun laid out an attack which ended in a memorable line:

"Better to have some vermin living in your neighborhood than to be one."

Racists love Trump because Trump is an open and proud racist. No white hood hiding that face.
