Edit: reply to adios

he's going off the rails accusing elijah cummings of a bunch of **** because cummings told the truth about whats going on at the border.

he's now accusing cummings of stealing/embezzling federal money because reasons(???) saying cummings' distict is the worst in the country...

cummings' district is the 2nd wealthiest majority african american district in the whole country. It's also the 2nd highest education level majority african american district in the whole country.. but you know, black people steal stuff i guess..

eta-and as always places with people of color are referred to as "crime-ridden" and "infested" which i'm sure totally isn't racist even though he did it with the ****-hole comments as well as the squad comments.

The guileful way to disrupt journalism is to make a bunch of bad journalism and then make some more journalism blaming the whole free press for bad journalism.

WRT: elijah Cummings. It might also be relevant that Cummings just received the go ahead on his subpoena for kushner and Ivanka’s emails this week. But I’m sure that doesn’t weigh into this baseless twitter attack at all.

Good stuff!

Yes. We know he gets his talking points from fox and friends talking heads. That doesn’t mean it’s not racist

If you post something like that and you can't articulate how anything Cummings has done has caused that or how he, as a US Congressman, could have done anything about it, you're a ****ing idiot.

Not that the mayor is the only person responsible for that alley, but Cummings does not govern that district. He is that district's representative who is governing the United States federal government. What's the criticism? That he's not getting enough pork for his district? Should he be getting a big special federal trash clean-up program just for Baltimore?

geez - waste of typing on my part though - Jsmith was nowhere near honest posting. I'll give Jsmith the benefit of doubt on his intelligence and assume he's just trolling. Trump on the other hand is a complete idiot. He literally doesn't know better.

Cummings attacks Drumpfs, Drumpf attacks back. People attack pumpkin orange man all the time for the border and other things that were messed up before he got there. If you represent an awful district and you go out and insult someone, you can expect to get insulted back.

Dehumanizing a whole Congressional district is anti-human. Trump is prejudiced and scared of “those” parts of town. Furthermore trump is manipulative and malinformative about bullying. A huge republican mess.

Trump didn’t insult though. He did worse. He propagated dehumanization and misinformation.

Again, Cummings doesn’t represent an “awful district”. He just represents a majority African American one.

Looks pretty bad and the people there seem to want to help. Cummings should focus on his district, not Orange Mussolini

Yeah, it looks like you are gaslighting to attack a political opponent.

I don't think they're in denial. It's strategic. If someone doesn't admit that that's what motivates them then the laws of The Discourse means you can't accuse them of being motivated by it, lest you be unfair to them.

Looks like you are using the word gaslighting manipulatively.

They may believe denial doesn’t serve them anymore because it’s actually hard to reign as if supreme and deny being supremacists at the same time. Maybe they think denial has done it’s job and now they have enough authority to shed it. Maybe they sense they have no other way to win than to excite prejudices more explicitly.

The hubris of supremacy thwarts the denial that has kept it arguable. Republicans who want to maintain denial are getting squeezed from “both sides”.

Trump 2020 is baked into the pudding and the racism is just keep people riled up.

So why hasn't Trump fixed this?

I think Jsmith27 does Trump's tweets great justice. It's the kind of discourse they deserve.

Trump blaming the 30 year of old AC unit that was installed during Bush's term on Obama

What has Donald Trump done to help that district?

Trump should jump in and show Cumming how it is done and turn the district into the West Palm Beach of Maryland.

I think you mean Palm Beach. West Palm beach has a number of places that are just as bad.
