7:47Now PlayingVictor Blackwell, a black CNN anchor and Baltimore native, took personal offense to Donald Trump’s tweets about his hometown. It appears as if the word “infested” that Trump used to describe Baltimore’s rodent problem struck Blackwell to his core. He went on about a 4 or 5 minute rant about how “racist” Trump’s words were. Blackwell also linked this “attack” to other members of Congress that happen to be “people of color” for what appears to be “evidence” of Trump’s “racism.”
The reality here is that Donald Trump told the truth about Baltimore. Sometimes the truth is ugly and when it’s ugly, it usually hurts. If a person lies, that lie is less likely to cause a person pain to the point where they lose their composure and “cry” on air like Victor Blackwell did. Black residents of the particular part of Baltimore that Trump was referring to - Elijah Cummings district - agreed with what Trump said and did not think it was racist. They appreciate someone actually taking notice rather than trying to sweep the problem under the rug as most politicians in Maryland do.
