Baltimore is under fire after President Trump has been hammering Congressman Elijah Cummings over his cities corruption and crime.

Conditions in the city of Baltimore are gaining attention after House Oversight Committee Chairman Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-Md.) criticized border patrol officials over conditions at the U.S.-Mexico border after President Trump called out the congressman on Twitter.

Trevor Loudon, a political activist, filmmaker, and author of the book “Enemies Within: Communists, Socialists and Progressives in the U.S. Congress,” says the Democratic Marxist socialist patronage system has turned the city into a sinkhole over the last 50 years.

“Baltimore has suffered like Detroit,” Loudon told The Epoch Times. “Has suffered from a succession of Marxist leaders, … a list of far-left leaders who have basically desolated their communities, and then they have the gall to criticize a president who is trying to keep America as a first-world nation, not a third-world nation.”
