'I think you're spending way too much time reading between the lines,' Mulvaney said, when confronted with Trump's habit of using vermin metaphors to describe political foes.
Acting White House Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney attempted to defend President Donald Trump's description of Baltimore as a"disgusting, rat and rodent-infested mess" Sunday, telling Fox News host Chris Wallace that the president's comments did not amount to racism.Fox News SundayMulvaney also stated that the president's remarks had nothing to do with race or religion.
Rep, Elijah Cummings has been a brutal bully, shouting and screaming at the great men & women of Border Patrol about conditions at the Southern Border, when actually his Baltimore district is FAR WORSE and more dangerous. His district is considered the Worst in the USA......The brunt of the interview centered on Trump's habit of invoking terms typically associated with vermin to describe his political foes — in particular those of color.
Aside from his denigrating remarks about Baltimore and Rep. Elijah Cummings, whose district includes the city, Trump has a long history of using metaphors associated with rodents to describe immigrants. And, earlier this month, he tweeted that U.S. representatives Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ayanna Pressley, Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib should go back to the"crime-infested places from which they came.
