On Saturday President Trump took to twitter to demand an investigation of Rep. Elijah Cummings and his corrupt and “rat infested” Maryland district.
….As proven last week during a Congressional tour, the Border is clean, efficient & well run, just very crowded. Cumming District is a disgusting, rat and rodent infested mess. If he spent more time in Baltimore, maybe he could help clean up this very dangerous & filthy place

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!

Earlier in the day Republican Kimberly Klacik was on FOX and Friends to talk about her video of rat-infested neighborhoods in Baltimore.
Trump was watching — And tweeted out about it.
Democrats were outraged at President Trump for daring to call Baltimore a rat-infested city.
Of course, they said it was racist.
According to the Orkin pest control company Baltimore, Maryland is one of the “rattiest cities” in the United States.
Pelosi weighed in on rat-infested Baltimore from a 5 start Hotel rooftop restaurant in Venice, Italy.
On Saturday Democrat Speaker Nancy Pelosi lashed out at President Trump for calling out Cummings and his rat-infested city.
.@RepCummings is a champion in the Congress and the country for civil rights and economic justice, a beloved leader in Baltimore, and deeply valued colleague. We all reject racist attacks against him and support his steadfast leadership. #ElijahCummingsIsAPatriot https://t.co/2LG8AuQrHh

Pelosi tweeted out her response from a 5 star hotel rooftop restaurant in Venice.
