President Donald Trump will visit Baltimore on Thursday to give a speech at the 2019 House Republican Conference Member Retreat, a White House spokesperson confirmed to TPM.
The confirmation settled the question as to whether Trump would attend the biennial retreat after he derided the majority black city as a “very dangerous and filthy place” during his series of racist attacks against Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-MD).
Likely inflamed by Cummings’ investigations into his finances as House Oversight Committee chairman, Trump launched the attacks against the Maryland Democrat and his district in late July.
It is a delightful thought that the person who cleans the green room at the event could smuggle in and release a swarm of bedbugs onto the couch and chairs.
Announcing a canceled meeting with the Taliban, now traveling to Baltimore. So brave, what’s next? Playing golf at a public course?
Do the hate crimes rise when he just shows up or does he have to throw a hate rally?
Actually shaking peoples’ hands on a rope line at the event? After he ran up the stairs with a gun firing to get the school shooter at Parkland.
Or at least draw a sharpie stick drawing to purport those events?
Is there a secret agent inside the GOP retreaters, trolling 45? Awfully peculiar choice for a gathering in light of recent events…
