Donald Trump took to Twitter on Monday night and Tuesday morning to sound off about the Baltimore riots, and what he claimed was ineffective leadership on the part of Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake, and President Obama.
Wow, 15 policemen hurt in Baltimore, some badly! Where is the National Guard. Police must get tough, and fast! Thugs must be stopped.

Our great African American President hasn’t exactly had a positive impact on the thugs who are so happily and openly destroying Baltimore!

Now that the ineffective Baltimore Police have allowed the city to be destroyed, are the U.S. taxpayers expected to rebuild it (again)?

The Mayor of Baltimore said she wanted to give the rioters “space to destroy” – another real genius!

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.

“Thugs must be stopped. – Said Thug Donald Trump.”
On another note: Is it possible for Mr. Trump to ever have a good hair day? Seriously! – With his (supposed) wealth? (Oh, that’s right, I forgot, Trump has filed for bankruptcy over half a dozen times and left taxpayers in a lurch in a few of those unfortunate scams).
The Donald needs to be forced to swim in the Gawonus Canal naked until his hair grows back.
An even more brief account:
Fucking idiot.
C’mon, TPM. I enjoy a good what-a-tool-Trump-is story as much as the next reader, but it seems to me that there are enough stories of real outrage right now to allow Trump tales to horn in.
