“My warmest condolences to the family and many friends of Congressman Elijah Cummings,” Trump said in a tweet. “I got to see first hand the strength, passion and wisdom of this highly respected political leader. His work and voice on so many fronts will be very hard, if not impossible, to replace!”-Dailycaller

Elaine,
Can you not say anything good?
If you can't then don't say anything.
Cummings was a leader in the Civil Rights movement and in the House.
He worked for his constituents and for our country.
Try once, to say something nice.

Frank, what is bad about saying that because he was in bad health and confined to a wheel chair that he should have left? He was no longer able to do the job, kind of like you.

I did not see that man as a shining star, but that is my opinion and to each their own.

Now try acting like a grown up. Sheesh you are like a two year old throwing tantrums.

Any good opinion of you just went down 10 notches, not that you care but now you are 8 notches in the hole.

Maybe Baltimore can start to recover from the years of being damaged by him.
