WTF do I care what is going on in Baltimore. Baltimore is Baltimore’s problem.

Not to worry, cuz Trump is gonna show some leadership and go fix Baltimore right quick, once that African American President is outta office!

Baltimore has been in a bad way for a long time. Way before BO or DT took office. Gotta go way back.

Remember homicide life on the street?

I'm not sure what that has to do with the point of this conversation (which is only sort of about the relative merits of Baltimore, and more about the President of the United States - a professed true patriot and so on and so forth - being pretty openly racist).

To paraphrase another poster on this board, JFC.

Might as well go ahead and blame BO and DT for Chicago while you’re at it.

The very reverend al sharpton would have had this all cleaned up by now if BO and DT would have just stayed out of his way.

I'm curious, Mich. What is there to blame about Chicago? You seem to be in the know.

What we have here is one jackass calling out another jackass for being a jackass.

I don't think that answers my question.

I do agree, Sharpton and Trump are both jackasses. However, one is the President of the United States and one tweeted that the other doesn't like whites or the police.

(Hint: It was the same guy).

Chicago/Baltimore
Boom boom, boom boom, boom boom all night long. Love that Homicide tv show.

I'm surprised you can focus on a TV show with all the voices in your head.

When candidate Donald Trump prepared to give a major energy speech during the 2016 campaign, one of his closest advisers provided a pre-speech review to senior United Arab Emirates officials, an unorthodox move that caught the attention of federal investigators, according to emails and text messages uncovered by a House Oversight Committee investigation.

“The Trump Administration has virtually obliterated the lines normally separating government policy making from corporate and foreign interests,” according to a report overseen by House Oversight Chairman Elijah Cummings, a Maryland Democrat, who commissioned the investigation into back channel business dealings between certain Trump aides and Middle Eastern countries.

Two weeks before Trump was scheduled to deliver the energy policy speech, Thomas Barrack, a California investment tycoon with extensive contacts in the Middle East and who later helped oversee Trump’s inauguration, provided a former business associate inside the United Arab Emirates with an advance copy of the candidate’s planned remarks. The associate then told Barrack he shared them with UAE and Saudi government officials, after which Barrack arranged for language requested by the UAE officials to be added to the speech with the help of Trump’s campaign manager at the time, Paul Manafort.

“This is the most likely final version of the speech. It has the language you want,” Manafort confirmed in an email to Barrack on the day of the speech, according to the report. Manafort has since gone to prison for financial crimes unrelated to his campaign work.

The White House declined to comment.
