Over the weekend, President Trump denounced the living conditions in Rep. Elijah Cummings district of Baltimore. He called out Cummings for neglecting the livelihood of the people of Baltimore, while at the same time continually vesting his energy in targeting Trump.

It wasn’t long, however, when other Democratic representatives and leaders supporting the Democratic position went after Trump, calling him a racist for making comments some in the Democratic community have made for years.

MSNBC host and Reverend Al Sharpton announced on Twitter Sunday his plans to “address Trump’s remarks & bi-partisan outrage in the black community” during an already planned press conference with Former Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele Monday morning at the New Shiloh Baptist Church in Baltimore.

I have known Al for 25 years. Went to fights with him & Don King, always got along well. He “loved Trump!” He would ask me for favors often. Al is a con man, a troublemaker, always looking for a score. Just doing his thing. Must have intimidated Comcast/NBC. Hates Whites & Cops! https://t.co/ZwPZa0FWfN — Donald J.

On Monday, Trump responded to Sharpton’s plans on Twitter, where he said, “I have known Al for 25 years. Went to fights with him & Don King, always got along well. He “loved Trump!” He would ask me for favors often. Al is a con man, a troublemaker, always looking for a score. Just doing his thing. Must have intimidated Comcast/NBC. Hates Whites & Cops!”

Baltimore, under the leadership of Elijah Cummings, has the worst Crime Statistics in the Nation. 25 years of all talk, no action! So tired of listening to the same old Bull…Next, Reverend Al will show up to complain & protest. Nothing will get done for the people in need. Sad! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) July 29, 2019

Trump says I’m a troublemaker & con man. I do make trouble for bigots. If he really thought I was a con man he would want me in his cabinet. — Reverend Al Sharpton (@TheRevAl) July 29, 2019

Moments later, Trump tweeted again saying, “Baltimore, under the leadership of Elijah Cummings was the worst Crime Statistics in the Nation. 25 years of all talk, no action! So tired of listening to the same old Bull… Next, Reverend Al will show up to complain & protest. Nothing will get done for the people in need. Sad!”

Sharpton responded by calling Trump both a ‘troublemaker’ and ‘con man.’

Al Sharpton would always ask me to go to his events. He would say, “it’s a personal favor to me.” Seldom, but sometimes, I would go. It was fine. He came to my office in T.T. during the presidential campaign to apologize for the way he was talking about me. Just a conman at work! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) July 29, 2019

Then, Trump tweeted, “Al Sharpton would always ask me to go to his events. He would say, “It’s a personal favor to me.” Seldom, but sometimes, I would go. It was fine. He came to my office in T.T. during the presidential campaign to apologize for the way he was talking about me. Just a conman at work!”

Earlier, Sharpton shared a photo of himself, Trump, Jesse Jackson, and James Brown from a 2006 NAN Convention suggesting Trump since changed his ‘tune.’

"He's going to attack me as a 'troublemaker' and a 'con-man.' …I am a 'troublemaker'… I intend to make trouble every time racists and bigots move around in any way shape or form, including the president." pic.twitter.com/A9mmM53TR2 — MSNBC (@MSNBC) July 29, 2019

Following Monday’s press conference, Sharpton appeared on MSNBC where he shared, “Well, my message is that he should not continue to try and sell his racist behavior to try and make the country more divided for his own political gain. The attacks on Elijah Cummings and his district here is something that is absolutely abhorrible.” Further, Sharpton rushed to defend Cummings’ district calling it ‘very stable.’ Referring to a back and forth with the president on Twitter, Sharpton said, “He’s going to attack me as a ‘troublemaker’ and a ‘con-man.’ …I am a ‘troublemaker’… I intend to make trouble every time racists and bigots move around in any way shape or form, including the president.”
