Baltimore Mayor: Trump Is Disappointment To Our City & The World

Donald Trump

Baltimore Mayor Bernard "Jack" Young (D) responded to Donald Trump's ugly tweets about his city and Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-Md.) on Saturday, calling the president a "disappointment to the people of Baltimore" and the world.

“It’s completely unacceptable for the political leader of our country to denigrate a vibrant American City like Baltimore, and to viciously attack U.S. Representative Elijah Cummings a patriot and a hero,” Young said in a statement shared via Twitter.

"Mr. Trump's rhetoric is hurtful and dangerous to the people he's sworn to represent," he continued. "As the Mayor of Baltimore, I won't stand for anyone, not even the alleged Leader of the Free World, attacking our great City or our representative to Congress."

“Mr. Trump, you are a disappointment to the people of Baltimore, our country, and to the world,” he concluded.

And, by the way, if Trump's concern is for the people of Baltimore, why doesn't HE do something?

As we all know, there's always a tweet:

President Obama, you have a big job to do. Go to Baltimore and bring both sides together. With proper leadership, it can be done! Do it.
