The Westside of Baltimore is THAT bad! It has been bad for some time. To call out this issue is not racist. Cummings has served that failed and corrupt district for 13 years. He was elected to be the voice of the people and a leader, yet his district is going further into the dumps. What did Baltimore do with the Billions received under Obama? Certainly didn't lower crime. Didn't improve infrastructure. Didn't better schools or student potential. Like it or not, Trump has a way of drawing attention to situations that require a fix that would otherwise continue to be ignored. This chess move puts pressure on the Dem party, as well as putting a spotlight on the distressed cities they represent. It's been said before, but if you insanely voted Dem or even Rep in your locale with the yearly status quo of inaction, what do you have to lose going a different direction in an attempt to better your situation and/or your neighborhoods? If multiple decades haven't brought necessary change, what are you doing? The party allegiance at the expense of well being is just mind-boggling.
