Washington – House Speaker Nancy Pelosi says if President Donald Trump wants to belittle her Baltimore hometown as rat-infested, then he should consult son-in-law Jared Kushner, whom she calls a “slumlord.”

Kushner’s family real estate firm owns thousands of apartments and townhomes in the Baltimore area. Some have been criticized for the kind of disrepair and neglect that Trump has accused local leaders of failing to address.
Pelosi says Baltimore is a great source of pride, as is Rep. Elijah Cummings, whose district includes parts of the city.
Trump has disparaged the majority-black district represented by the Democrat, who’s leading multiple investigations of the president’s governmental dealings.
Pelosi’s father and brother were Baltimore mayors. Her advice to Trump: Talk to White House adviser Kushner, “who’s a slumlord there, if he wants to talk about rodents.”
Weren’t Pelosi’s brother and father former mayors of Baltimore?? I guess the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.
#1 , says that in article
Sully argument . It’s the same ny state folly argument . Why do you kind always assume that the onus is on the ” rich write man” who owns your property to fix it all. Nys lives in this same communist shell where rents can never be raised .
Now let’s address the issue
When trump speaks about rodents he means what are you doing to improve people’s lives via helping poor blacks creep out of poverty . If they got good education , got rid of crime etc… then they wouldn’t live in kushner slums or they’d offer more money and ask him to remodel his homes .
It’s utter stupidity to think a real estate owner under rent control guidelines is to blame for crime and low quality of life . This is pure communism . Of course some fools on vin believe it too
Yes, her dad was certainly mayor of Charm City. It is not clear our President has ever set foot there.
To #3 Except the slumlord Kushner is supposed to get rid of the 4 legged vermin.
That is the landlord’s job — he should do it for any tenant. If this was a coop or condo, would he leave the vermin?
LOOK at all destroyed cities FDlint Detroit, LA, San Franscisco, Baltimore, Cleveland all run by democraps and all destroyed. NYC under Dinkins got destroyed and Giuliani breathe life into again and it thrived until deblasio who has try to destroy the police the department
