In response to President Trump’s perfectly accurate description of the Baltimore City congressional district represented in Congress for the past several decades by Elijah Cummings, under the supervision of the Maryland Democrat Party for the past sixty years, the current mayor defended what he called his “vibrant” city. Alas, the only thing “vibrating” in Baltimore are the windows of houses during shootouts. The murder rate is the highest in the U.S. per 100,000 population and nearly eleven times the national average; the violent crime rate in general is about nine times the national average; and the robbery rate is about ten times the national average.
Among the more memorable Baltimore Sun news articles in the past year or so is one about how a mob of “youths” armed with boards descended on the Inner Harbor area and beat the daylights out of a family of ten tourists, including the 80-year-old grandmother. Another article was about the new fun game of randomly shoving a strolling tourist into the putrid, stinky, garbage-filled harbor. The brand new deputy police commissioner and his wife were robbed at gunpoint last week. Welcome to Baltimore! A woman walking her dog near Johns Hopkins University was found stabbed to death at 5 in the afternoon. The mayor resigned a few months ago because she was even more corrupt than Cummings and the rest, and not as slick, and got caught. Her predecessor responded to violent “Black Lives Matter” rioters setting fire to businesses and private homes and looting pharmacies by ordering the police to “stand down” and give the rioters, who she called “our children,” their “space.” (Every one of the police officers accused of causing the death of Freddie Gray while in police custody after being arrested, the cause of the riot, was acquitted). The city’s political gangsters and angry blowhards like Cummings and the mayor blame it all on white racism and stingy white politicians in Washington like Donald Trump. Just give Baltimore politicians oh, I dunno, a couple trillion dollars from the federal treasury and all these problems will go away, they say. If you disagree with that then, by definition, you are a racist.

As Steve Sailer points out, April 27, 2015 is the day that changed Baltimore. The mayor told the cops to stand down so the 'youths' could riot without police interference. Since that day they have stopped interferring and spent their time at the doughnut shops.

Don't try to blame Trump for this shithole.
