The last thing a leftist wants is anyone using their own words against them. Luckily they have a built-in defense mechanism to deflect all criticism: they simply yell “racist!” and that’s the end of it. Actually, this is how they end every debate they can’t win, but it also works on hypocrisy. Trump directly quoted Bernie Sanders and his response was to call the President a liar and racist. Well played, sir.
If you haven’t seen the news in a few days you missed the biggest liberal freak-out since the last one. Trump rightfully pointed out that Baltimore is a dangerous and filthy place. Despite being a 100% accurate statement, liberals decided this was the most racist thing anyone has ever said, mostly because Trump said it.
As it turns out, socialist kook Bernie Sanders has also said some unflattering but true things about the City of Baltimore.
Residents of Baltimore’s poorest boroughs have lifespans shorter than people living under dictatorship in North Korea. That is a disgrace.

Bernie Sanders visited Rep. Elijah Cummings district in 2015. He was shocked by what he saw.
“You would think that you were in a third world country,” Sanders said. “We’re talking about a community in which there are hundreds of buildings that are uninhabitable.” pic.twitter.com/nqlCJS34RM

President Trump then wanted to know why he’s a racist, but Bernie is not:
Crazy Bernie Sanders recently equated the City of Baltimore to a THIRD WORLD COUNTRY! Based on that statement, I assume that Bernie must now be labeled a Racist, just as a Republican would if he used that term and standard! The fact is, Baltimore can be brought back, maybe……

….even to new heights of success and glory, but not with King Elijah and that crew. When the leaders of Baltimore want to see the City rise again, I am in a very beautiful oval shaped office waiting for your call!

Luckily Bernie Sanders took some time off pushing socialism to explain this to the President:
Trump’s lies and racism never end.
While I have been fighting to lift the people of Baltimore and elsewhere out of poverty with good paying jobs, housing and health care, he has been attacking workers and the poor. https://t.co/7N0K4GQgEO

Whoa, this is getting confusing. As far as I can tell, Trump is racist because he called Bernie racist for saying the same thing he said that got him labeled racist by liberals. Additionally, Trump is lying by telling the truth about what Bernie said. This is what’s known as liberal logic and that’s to say it’s completely illogical.
Where’s a liberal media fact-check when you need one? What exactly is the lie that Trump has told with this tweet? Bernie did say disparaging things about Baltimore. It’s right there in the tweet he sent and the video of him saying it.
And while we’re on the subject, what has Bernie ever done to improve conditions in Baltimore? Or when has he ever created one job anywhere in the country?
Trump did a hilarious job of pointing out the liberal media double-standard and then Bernie jumped in to confirm it like the commie dope he is. If Trump is racist for saying Baltimore is a shithole, then so too should Bernie be for saying the same thing. Either the left has to apologize to Trump for calling him a racist over this or they gotta jump on Bernie the same way.
I’m just kidding, if liberals weren’t full of shit they’d be empty. Without their glaring hypocrisy and and faux outrage, they wouldn’t be anything. They actually have to bullshit about everything or they cease to exist.
Ultimately Bernie’s response to Trump was, “I know you are, but what am I.” Maybe that flies on the playground between 5-year-olds, but Bernie Sanders is a grown-ass (very old) man who is running for president. On top of ditching the socialism crap, he should make some kind of effort to act like an adult. And an American.
