In case you missed it over the weekend, outrage erupted (again) when President Trump correctly called out Democrat Congressman Elijah Cummings for heinous conditions inside his Baltimore, Maryland district.
Baltimore, under the leadership of Elijah Cummings, has the worst Crime Statistics in the Nation. 25 years of all talk, no action! So tired of listening to the same old Bull...Next, Reverend Al will show up to complain & protest. Nothing will get done for the people in need. Sad!

Why is so much money sent to the Elijah Cummings district when it is considered the worst run and most dangerous anywhere in the United States. No human being would want to live there. Where is all this money going? How much is stolen? Investigate this corrupt mess immediately!

Elijah Cummings spends all of his time trying to hurt innocent people through “Oversight.” He does NOTHING for his very poor, very dangerous and very badly run district! Take a look.... #BlacksForTrump2020 https://t.co/seNVESZUht

Trump's remarks were immediately deemed racist. One CNN anchor cried about it, literally.

Shouldn’t he be crying Because @RepCummings hasn’t done anything for his district in decades ?
Or Cry because Obama didn’t do anything.
Who’s laughing with me?

But in 2015, notice how things haven't changed, Democrat presidential candidate Bernie Sanders visited the same neighborhood President Trump referred to as rat infested and called it a third world country.
CC: @BernieSanders ??

Was it “racist” when Bernie had this to say about Baltimore? ??pic.twitter.com/2aLOGoVXA2
Where was the outrage? Why is Bernie Sanders racist against people who live in Baltimore and in third world countries? Will he be asked about his insensitive and racially inflammatory remarks during the second Democrat debates in Detroit this week?
The double standard is exhausting.
....even to new heights of success and glory, but not with King Elijah and that crew. When the leaders of Baltimore want to see the City rise again, I am in a very beautiful oval shaped office waiting for your call!
