President Trump Shreds Al Sharpton Over Baltimore Trip: A Conman Who “Hates Whites & Cops”

by

President Trump responded to MSNBC host Rev. Al Sharpton saying he is headed to Baltimore, shredding the former Democratic Party candidate as a conman who hates cops and white people. Sharpton’s trip to Baltimore comes after Trump blasted Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-MD), whose House District includes West Baltimore, for the city’s horrible living conditions. Trump in turn has been attacked by Democrats and the media with the smear “racist”.

Trump noted that he has known Sharpton for 25 years and used to get along well with him.

Sharpton posted a photo of himself at an airport Sunday night captioned, “Arrived in DC from Atlanta, headed to Baltimore. Long day but can’t stop.” The photo was followed by an announcement for a Monday morning press conference with former RNC Chairman and former Maryland Lt. Governor Michael Steele, now a Trump-hating MSNBC analyst.

Trump sent out a multi-tweet barrage on Sharpton, Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-MD) and the failures of Democrats to take care of Baltimore. Trump closed with an open door offer to help the beleaguered Maryland city.

“I have known Al for 25 years. Went to fights with him & Don King, always got along well. He “loved Trump!” He would ask me for favors often. Al is a con man, a troublemaker, always looking for a score. Just doing his thing. Must have intimidated Comcast/NBC. Hates Whites & Cops!”

“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!”

“If the Democrats are going to defend the Radical Left “Squad” and King Elijah’s Baltimore Fail, it will be a long road to 2020. The good news for the Dems is that they have the Fake News Media in their pocket!”

“Al Sharpton would always ask me to go to his events. He would say, “it’s a personal favor to me.” Seldom, but sometimes, I would go. It was fine. He came to my office in T.T. during the presidential campaign to apologize for the way he was talking about me. Just a conman at work!”

“Crazy Bernie Sanders recently equated the City of Baltimore to a THIRD WORLD COUNTRY! Based on that statement, I assume that Bernie must now be labeled a Racist, just as a Republican would if he used that term and standard! The fact is, Baltimore can be brought back, maybe……”

“….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!”

Sharpton responded Monday morning with an old photo of himself and black leaders and a statement, “Trump says I’m a troublemaker & con man. I do make trouble for bigots. If he really thought I was a con man he would want me in his cabinet.”
