In a White House press avail on Friday, Trump did what he does best: Whine! Then he focused his attention on his archenemy, President Barack Obama. This was a bizarre rant that could only have been triggered by his personal hatred and racism. He said:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>&#8220;All they want to do is impede, they want to investigate. They want to go fishing. And I watched Bob Mueller &#8211; and they have nothing &#8211; There&#8217;s no collusion, no obstruction. They have nothing.

Let\u2019s subpoena all of the records having to do with Hillary Clinton and all of the nonsense that went on with Clinton and her foundation and everything else.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>&#8220;We could do that all day long. Frankly, the Republicans were gentlemen and women when we had the majority in the House. They didn\u2019t do subpoenas all day long. They didn\u2019t do what these people have done.

And what clandestine criminal acts does he think might be uncovered? Well, Obama wrote a book. Quick, someone alert the FBI!<\/p>\n<p>Trump&#8217;s portrayal of Republicans as polite politicos is among his most deranged observations. The GOP controlled House of Representatives &#8211; led by ultra-partisan hacks like Trey Gowdy and Jason Chaffetz (both now Fox News contributors) &#8211; was relentless in their baseless persecution of both Obama and Hillary Clinton. Contrary to Trump&#8217;s dishonest recollection, they did issue numerous subpoenas regarding everything from Hillary&#8217;s emails to Benghazi to Fast and Furious to the alleged targeting by the IRS. And let&#8217;s not forget their years long assault on Obama as a gay Muslim born in Kenya. Despite these endless and partisan probes, the GOP found no evidence of anything untoward by anyone.<\/p>\n<p>There is a big difference between Trump&#8217;s hysterical outbursts alleging crimes by Obama, and his own legal woes. For one thing, There is no evidence whatsoever that Obama ever violated any law. Certainly not with his book deal. However, the investigations into Trump&#8217;s criminality were all based on his own behavior and documented proof of wrongdoing. Trump and his team had over 127 secret meetings with Russians that they all lied about when asked.<\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s more, Trump&#8217;s complaint that he has been subjected to inquiries that Obama never had to endure is true, but not for the reasons he thinks. Both political and legal probes into Trump&#8217;s finances have resulted in requests for his tax returns, which he once promised to release. Instead, he has used every legal trick in the book to avoid any such disclosure. Obama, however, didn&#8217;t have this problem because he voluntarily released his taxes during his campaign. Obama also didn&#8217;t have problems with corruption in his businesses because he didn&#8217;t seek to exploit his presidency for profit, or to sell out his country to Russians and other foreign entities.<\/p>\n<p>To make matters worse, Trump went on a <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/realDonaldTrump\/status\/1155073964634517505\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Saturday tweet-spree<\/a><\/strong> attacking Maryland congressman Elijah Cummings. Trump called Cummings\u2019 Baltimore district a <em>&#8220;a disgusting, rat and rodent infested mess <\/em><em>[where]<\/em> no human being would want to live.&#8221; He went on to compare Cummings&#8217; district unfavorably with his concentration camps on the border saying it is the <em>&#8220;Worst in the USA [but that the] Border is clean, efficient &#038; well run.&#8221;<\/em> Then Trump baselessly alleged some sort of corruption by Cummings asking <em>&#8220;Where is all this money going? How much is stolen? Investigate this corrupt mess immediately!&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Make no mistake, This is a forthrightly racist attack on an African-American congressman and his black and brown constituents. Trump has also been attacking four congresswomen of color for the past few weeks. His mantra that they should <em>&#8220;go back&#8221;<\/em> where they came from was not only insulting (they are all citizens), but un-American. And this new attack on Baltimore &#8211; three days shy of its 290th birthday &#8211;  is further evidence that Trump truly hates America, particularly major cities with proud histories and diverse populations. And it is no coincidence that Trump&#8217;s use of this sort of rhetoric is always reserved for people of color. This was expressed with great passion and moral integrity by CNN&#8217;s Victor Blackwell, who is from Baltimore.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">President Trump tweeted that Rep.
