President Donald Trump is tweeting about a reported burglary at the Baltimore home of Rep. Elijah Cummings. Trump has denigrated Cummings this week, calling his majority-black district a “disgusting, rat and rodent infested mess.”
On Friday, Trump tweeted, “Really bad news! The Baltimore house of Elijah Cummings was robbed. Too bad!”
Police said they received a report of a burglary at 3:40 a.m. Saturday at a West Baltimore home, but it was unknown whether property was taken. The Baltimore Sun, citing state property records, reported the break-in happened at Cummings’ home.
Cummings’ House Oversight and Reform Committee has been investigating Trump family members serving in the White House.

The break-in came hours before Trump launched a Twitter tirade against Cummings.
Andy Eichar, Cummings’ press secretary, said Thursday Cummings was unavailable for comment.

It was the fine gentry of Baltimore who likely came to offer to help the Cummings household with free services.
How dignified he is.
This proves Trump was right! The libs should stop worrying about the illegals that come here. They should start worrying about the crime and the abuse of drugs in this country!
This problem is exacerbated in the inner cities, which is mainly controlled by the Democrats!
