Trump maligned Baltimore. Residents welcomed his visit with protests.

Source: Washington Post

BALTIMORE —The advertisement for President Trump’s self-appointed “welcoming committee” featured his face photoshopped onto the body of hairless rodent.

It minced no words: “TRUMP IS A RAT.”

With the president speaking here Thursday to a closed-door retreat of House Republicans, scores of protesters gathered to express opposition to White House policies and outrage at Trump’s recent tweets calling Maryland’s largest city “the Worst in the USA.”

The visit by the president — who maligned Baltimore as a “disgusting, rat and rodent infested mess” where “no human being would want to live” — was limited to a dinnertime speech kicking off the GOP retreat, at the Baltimore Marriott Waterfront Hotel in Harbor East.

Tonight, the pussy ass bitch will go straight from Baltimore to one of his distressed golf resorts, at considerable expense to the taxpayers. The rat balloon will undoubtedly hit a nerve, so he’ll launch a late-night Twitter meltdown. With any luck, he’ll burst a major blood vessel this weekend.

Joe Murphy, a 50-year-old insurance salesman, arrived alone and unfurled a large Trump 2020 banner, prompting an onslaught of taunts from protesters. Brenton Williamson, 29, ran over to help hold the banner as police escorted them across President Street, somewhat away from the crowd.

“Look at those people,” Murphy, of Baltimore, said moments later, standing next to a 15-foot-tall rat king effigy of Trump. “They’re dressed like rats and Homer Simpson. I can’t believe they’re even allowed to vote.”


Welcome to America, trashbag. Don't like it, get the hell out.
