the baltimore house of elijah cummings is robbed. this is the president of the united states tweeting about it. nakie haley, who served in the trump administration, u.s. ambassador to the united nations, left by all accounts on good terms, largely refrained from criticizing him, former governor of south carolina. she tweets four words, this is so unnecessary about the president bragging about a congressman's house being robbed. kellyanne conway, counselor to the president responds, this is so unnecessary. and tru trying to send a couple messages. >> might be a race against pence and haley on the republican side. but i'm trying to think, every modern president that i have seen as endured some form of criticism from their own party. sometimes they grouch about it in private but they recognize they have to take it. this seems like a clear illustration, here's a former administration member who doesn't think the president should go on twitter and sarcastically talk about a congressman's house being robbed and senior white house adviser g

we had almost three weeks now of trump, his racist attacks on the squad and baltimore and elijah cummings. from the moment he rolled down the escalator in 2015. it brought this pressure cooker around him and the outrage. >> message back to democrats, this is such a moment in time, whatever network has the next debate. whoever it is, every candidate asked questions about single payer insurance and climate, say those are critical. we will focus now on the safety, the core safety and decency of the american public. our safety is at risk with assault weapons. republicans won't do anything about it. there is good and evil and hate. don't just leave it at racism, good and evil. racism is one of the pieces. do not let it go. do not let the moderators take over. if you are leaders, it succeeds everything else. we are in a good versus evil moment in this country and one of the wars we are seeing it play out, free elections, kamala, pete, everybody, don't let us news goofy people get you off topic, take over the debates, and guys, stay together on this one. that's what leaders do. we need you now.
