FLAG IT: Trump will visit Baltimore Thursday -- a majority-black city he recently called a rodent infested mess -- to attend the GOP retreat.
My R sources are already privately speculating that this could be disastrous, inciting local protests

(22,100 posts)administration. One thing for sure, though, the GOP is finished as a national party. Their sitting by the sidelines doing nothing tells one quite a bit about this party and what they truly and actually believe in. That the vast majority of us don't deserve tax breaks, don't deserve a decent wage, don't deserve adequate health care or housing, etc. And of course the top notch issue, don't allow any of our trillion dollar companies to pay any tax!!

(8,419 posts)Ferguson, MO, and BLM are underestimated as to the impact on the 2016 election.
MAGAts and too many independents look at those events, gathering of protesters, and see things completely differently than us. They see scary black people promoting lawlessness.
I'm not saying they are right, I am saying that is how they filter things. I have taken a lot of heat here stating that Repukes are bad people. Too many don't want to accept it, but they truly have a difficult time seeing things for what they are, they are much more comfortable seeing things for what they are told.

Baltimore doesn't take any crap, Hon.
