mobanmarketDavid Simon, the Hollywood writer and producer of HBO’s The Wire, declared President Trump a “race-hating fraud” and “‘literally’ a simplistic, racist moron” for criticizing Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-MD) and the crime-ridden condition of his Baltimore district.
“If this empty-suit, race-hating fraud had to actually visit West Baltimore for five minutes and meet any of the American citizens who endure there, he’d wet himself,” The Deuce creator wrote.

Simon, who “documented life in Baltimore over five seasons of his HBO series,” largely attempted to use his own experience in the city to blast Trump, calling him a “simplistic, racist moron.”
In another tweet, Simon said the president would “wet himself” if he “stepped out of his limo and found himself suddenly a racial minority.”
He also called Trump a “permanent stain on our land.”
“Fuckmook, these are national policies and paradigms bigger than your gibbering collapse into simplistic partisan banter,” he continued. “You’re wandering comically into a prepared enfilade of belt-fed macroeconomics and institutional racism flashing a bent butterknife of Democrats-are-bad.”

Trump sparked the political firestorm after taking aim at Congressman Cummings, calling him a “brutal bully” for “shouting and screaming” at Border Patrol agents over the conditions of migrant shelters while Baltimore remains “far worse and more dangerous.”
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) — along with other prominent Democrats — accused Trump of launching a “racist” attack.
The president doubled down Saturday night, retweeting a video of a Baltimore resident, Michelle, who said Cummings “hasn’t done anything” for them.
“Trump is not racist … I’m glad he put [Cummings] on blast,” Michelle said in another video. “The rats just didn’t come. These houses just didn’t get torn down, they’ve been like this.”
Trump took shots at Pelosi’s San Francisco district Sunday morning.
“Speaking of failing badly, has anyone seen what is happening to Nancy Pelosi’s district in San Francisco,” Trump wrote. “It is not even recognizable lately. Something must be done before it is too late.”
