President Trump referred to Sharpton as a “con man” and “a troublemaker” amid controversy over remarks about House Oversight Committee Chairman Elijah Cummings and Baltimore.
The President tweets Al Sharpton “hates whites” one day after tweeting racist language about Baltimore being “infested” with rats in Elijah Cummings’ district. A week after starting a Twitter feud with another black member of Congress, telling her to “go back”.
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

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!

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!
