Baltimore On Most Rat-Infested Cities List Again: Orkin

BALTIMORE, MD – Charm City is once again among America's "Rattiest Cities," according to a new report from pest control company Orkin, although it has shown progress in each of the past two years. Baltimore comes in at No. 9 on the company's 2018 rankings released Monday.

This is the fourth year that Orkin has compiled the rankings, which are based on the number of rodent treatments the company performed from Sept. 15, 2017 to Sept. 15, 2018. It includes both residential and commercial treatments.

Baltimore dropped one slot from last year, when it was ranked eighth; two years ago it was No. 6 on the Orkin list. The city has undertaken several rat control measures, including the issuance of municipal garbage cans to contain waste.

For the fourth year in a row, Chicago was No. 1 on the list.

Trump was right; Baltimore is infested with rodents. I think Demorats would have been fine with Trump stating this fact, had he then blamed the rodent infestation on systemic discrimination, thus giving Baltimorons an excuse for why they aren't responsible for the rat problem.

The green is Cumming's district. The district contains urban, suburban and rural areas. Above average college education and is generally well of and middle class. Median income is 58k, which is right about average. Why are you using areas that are not part of the district to claim what Trump said about the distreict is true?

The White House is infested with rats. The REAL rats, not the people there.

Let's pretend this matters. What is Elijah Cummings supposed to do as a federal official?

Baltimore's mayor Pugh, who was forced to resign in May, had visited a part of Elijah Cummings' district last year. Here is what she had to say:

"What the hell? We should just take all this **** down. ... Whoa, you can smell the rats. ... Whew, Jesus. ... Oh, my God, you can smell the dead animals."


 
Trump posts vile invective and the deplorable cult bots mindlessly parrot his bilge.

To be completely fair to Cummings, most cities on the Orkin Rat Infestation list are heavily influenced by the DNC. I only see a few which aren't Dem strongholds. But we already know that overpopulated, blighted, crime-filled Diversity Utopias are what the DNC demands of us. It's not 'cool' to care about such things.

Damn, the Orkin man again confirms that your country is "a disgusting, rat and rodent infested mess" And you sound happy about it. Are you?
 
Forget about Orkin...the MAYOR said it.
 
Orkin man is to be hired as a spokesman for Trump Admin.
News at 11:00.

I'm not surprised by any of this. My politics haven't changed since I was 14. I knew this was going to happen.
 
Is it democratic controlled cities that are infested? Or is it cities in general?

Its alot harder to govern a dense urban population in the millions compared to acres of empty fields. But don't let logic stop ya. Let's not forget that these horribly run democratic areas are the countries economic powerhouses, meanwhile red states have **** education and take more from the federal government then they give, unlike those ****ty democratic areas that are actual economic successes. -.-

Also, trump isnt criticizing the mayor or city council, he is criticizing a member of the federal Congress who represents the city on national issues, but doesnt actual govern the city itself.... once again, dont let logic stop ya.

Furthermore, he isnt criticizing the city because he cares about the city, the angry thin skinned spite obsessed embarrassment is simply lashing out at anyone who criticizes him. As usual. Pathetic.

Regarding the conditions of the city, the POTUS has more control over it then a single member of the federal congress who has no executive powers.

Not shocked. Thats par for the course. Remember...these are the same 'people' that posted pictures of children in cages ****ting themselves about Trump, only to learn the pictures were actually from Obama...and when they were told they were actually from Obama literally made excuses for the pictures they were ****ting themselves over.

Nah...the lack of integrity on their part makes anything they say worthless as ****. And lets not pretend this is anything new from them.
 
Orkin, PBS, The NYT, Bernie Sanders, the democrat mayor of Baltimore...

LOTS of people acknowledging that place is a rat infested ****hole.

Cumming's district also contains all of West Baltimore and that is where the problem lies.
