The staggering hypocrisy of Trump's racist attacks on Baltimore July 31, 2019 1:01 pm RL

Not only is his son in law a slumlord in Baltimore- with housing violations and rodent infested properties that he is responsible for….
But Trump’s father was arrested for the conditions he subjected his (mostly minority) tenants to just a few years after he was found guilty of refusing to rent to African Americans….

Conservative media is going all out to defend Trump’s racist tweets and attacks against Cummings and his constituents… Limbaugh was all-in today explaining how this was not racist in the least, and going on to attack additional african americans…

Meanwhile the 5th congressional Republican in 2 weeks has announced they will not run again in 2020:

A fifth Republican congressman appears set to quit the party in the space of two weeks amid ongoing tension over Donald Trump’s presidency.

Representative Mike Conaway will not seek re-election to his Texas seat in 2020, the Politico website reported. He has not confirmed his decision or reason for retiring but he is set to make a statement to the media.

The move has prompted worries within the party that others will follow suit and step down, because of the difficulties that come with serving under Mr Trump and working with a Democratic majority in Congress.

“Serving in the era of Trump has few rewards,” Tom Davis, a former senior Republican congressman, told The Hill website. “He has made an already hostile political environment worse.

“Every day there is some indefensible tweet or comment to defend or explain. It is exhausting and often embarrassing.”

Take a moment to appreciate the cowardice, the hypocrisy, the amorality of that statement:

“Every day there is some indefensible tweet or comment to defend or explain. It is exhausting and often embarrassing.”

The thing is, if you have values, if you have a sense of right and wrong, if you have a goddamn spine you don’t HAVE to defend the indefensible- you can call it out as the toxic filth it is…
