Mister Fig...the mayor is brand new only a few weeks in office. The previous mayor, Pugh, was ousted for a corrupt book selling scheme that brought her close to a million dollars. Let's give him a little slack. I noticed he didn't go to west Baltimore where he might have been shot. Worse than east Baltimore.
Michael Jensen I agree, now that eyes are going to be on him, he and appropriate staff can start working on an action plan to hopefully turn this situation around. .
So how the f*** is he the mayor if he never walked around Baltimore before he was the mayor. So what he was an outsider the whole time and he was shocked .GTFOH!
@AugustanFinn ...the Mayor had to hide his corrupt money....then show his face....then put the blame on the Baltimore citizens and police...what a f..k.. incompetent Mayor
how dare Donald Trump throw trash on the streets of Baltimore to make it look bad...………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….very shrewd Donald Trump
@Shawn Carter ....counting his corrupt money....lining his pockets....acting like he cares....putting the blame on Baltimore citizens and police ....incompetent Mayor
Fay Carter without the e real talk now they are going to put the blame on police 👮♀️. It’s raining blame on police. City streets are horrible to drive blame on police
It's funny to me how mayors can walk through a city upon taking office and act like they didn't know how bad it is. Before running for mayor, they should familiarize themselves with the best AND the worst areas. These walkthroughs should be a way to deepen relationships the mayor already has and build new ones. pp
I wished he walked my block 25th street. It's a mess and the city abandoned houses needs cleaning up too. I asked my city councilman Robert Stokes Mechanical street cleaner but I was turned down.
So the Democrat Mayor of Baltimore (who's actually from east Baltimore and has been involved in Baltimore politics for 23 yrs) sits in his ivory tower and doesn't know shit about what's going on in his own town until President Trump calls out a worthless MD Congressman who's district is also partially in Baltimore. How is that possible? How can someone who's been in Baltimore politics for 23 yrs be so disconnected from the city? Sounds like the Cumings effect - drawing a paycheck but accomplishing nothing in return. Call it negligence or corruption it's the same thing.
People need to stop looking to the government to solve all of their problems. The community needs to band together to cleanup its neighborhoods. It is called taking pride and caring about your neighborhood.
You obviously haven't been to Baltimore, because Baltimore is so much more then what the media shows. They only show the bad parts of Baltimore and not the good parts. I live in East Baltimore born and raised.
@@lillyofthevalley205 it's not about being racist...your candidate lost in 2016 and u don't like the sitting president so all of u are doing all the despicable things to get rid of him!!!...if he didn't expose Baltimore, think about the conditions of people who lives there!!
@@richardreyes7885 Please read what I wrote again and pay attention to the word" IF" Don't tell me that you believe rats, crime, and garbage are races. My president won in 2016!
The Mayor is angry? Was he angry last week? Was he angry when he was receiving part of the $2.3 billion no one can find? What's the mayors' response? Send more money.
The mayor now all of sudden cares after the President pointed out how negligent these Americans are being treated in these communities!! Once again this shows democrats true colors!!!
Where was he mayor before now? He should have known what was going on in his town. The walk was planned a month ago, but didn't happen until the president talked about the condition of Baltimore 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
They dont get mad at the idiots making these shitholes...they get mad at the people leaving? Cleaning up the streets temporarily isnt going to do a thing. how about fixing their families. Nope. Guys selling drugs and shooting into their houses? They good. Popo arresting dipshit with a weapon? Oh no they dident
how dare Donald Trump throw trash on the streets of Baltimore to make it look bad...………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….very shrewd Donald Trump
Mayor Young blasted back at President Trump saying he should send Federal money to fix the problem. I say make an accurate accounting of federal money spent in this neighborhood for the last 4 years with full and accurate outcomes first.
Give me a break!! This is the City he is responsible for and he's acting like this is the first he's seen or heard of the neglect?!?!?! and he's appalled now!! What a bunch of corrupt money grubbing crooks!!!!!
The key to Baltimore is imminent domain. Cease large tracts of bad crime infested areas. Build 2-story brick walls around it, level it, then auction it to a developer who promises to build new upscale housing units and retail and office space. You have to kick the criminals out of Baltimore and the only way to do it is to take over the areas they reside.
MMAFighter38 because unfortunately , that the mind set of most of us black folks. We don't want to know , or refuse to see the truth about the wrong that other blacks are doing. The blacks in the cities that you mention will go back and vote these same peoples into office again just because they are black or demoncrats.
J-Ryder 42 never said that I did, but the truth remain that blacks ignore the wrong that black folks in position of power do. If not why are they continually voted in these offices year after year with no results.
I'm going to guess that the city officials will spend a few weeks blaming each other and everybody else, they will continue to deposit their pay checks (or check their direct-depost balances) make a few publicized efforts and work on being re-elected. Don't the records show this has been deteriorating for decades?
Thank you Mr Trump for bringing these issues to light,,, God bless Baltimore and all other democratic run cities,,, working together is the only way to get things done...vote for change.... vote straight Republican ticket in the next election..... obviously voting Democrat for the last 50 years hasn't worked out.....
This is a shame the president leaned the problem first than the mayor of the city. Look at the mayors face it is too fat and darken because of the very long sleep.
Maybe Baltimore should thank President Trump, if it wasn't for him nothing would have been done. Baltimore needs to find out where the billions of dollars went to. Ask Cummings, I bet he knows. TRUMP 2020.
Did you see the mayor pick up one piece of trash? All lip service and photo op. Would have respect for him if he actually did something that showed the citizens he was involved.
So the people of the neighborhood can't pick up the trash, and clean their own area? You have to do something for yourself. At least start, and others will come....
Baltimore city need more police officers. Because people drinking alcohol on the street, smoking marijuana, sale drug at coner. But I can't see where is police officers. Baltimore city have to hire more police officers. And keep safe people who live in Baltimore city.
The people of Baltimore are so passionate about fixing their problems that a group of white conservatives had to come in and clean up their trash for them.
So he is walking around pretending he had no clue about this and it sure sounds to me like he is blaming the residents . Granted , they are the ones who put it there but where else are you supposed to put it ? 2:20 SURE IT WAS .
The sad part is the people who vote keep voting in the same people who’ve ignored the problems of this city and others. People are more fascinated with people who sound and look good as opposed to people who actually do what they say.
FYI rats are attracted to garbage it's a good food source! Maybe they should offer prisoners 2 days off their sentences for every 1 day they work to clean up the trash on the street? Just my 2 cents worth!
