Trump has now made shitting on Baltimore part of his campaign speeches. Echoing someone in the crowd, he claims the homicide rate is higher in the city than Afghanistan.

“Gimme a place,” he says.

Then the laughter from the crowd.

As someone who has covered murder in Baltimore for years, sat w/ mourning mothers, fathers, siblings, grandmothers and girlfriends, this video is quite literally nauseating.

I don’t know what to do w/ this feeling. https://t.co/LNClOlNvgZ
