Trump has a ‘hate agenda,’ Tlaib charges


Rep. Rashida Tlaib charged on Sunday that President Donald Trump has a “hate agenda.”

"He doesn't have a policy agenda. And that's what he falls down on," the Michigan Democrat said on CNN's "State of the Union."

Tlaib was responding to the president calling parts of Baltimore a “disgusting, rat and rodent infested mess” in a tweet Saturday criticizing House Oversight and Reform Chairman Elijah Cummings (D-Md.

).

“I don't want to project, but he very easily could have said those same things about Detroit, it seems to me,” CNN host Jake Tapper told Tlaib.

“Absolutely,” she said, explaining that her constituents, many of whom are struggling to make ends meet, want a president who follows through on promises, such as reducing the cost of prescription drugs.

But “this hate agenda is now seeping into policy-making,” Tlaib said, citing deregulation in the Environmental Protection Agency. Her constituents, she added, tell her that “even in Southwest Detroit, we have a right to breathe clean air.”


“We don't feel like our government is protecting us,” Tlaib said.

“This is a crooked CEO in the White House that is making decisions based on profits, based on where his friends [are] and based on what his Trump Organization, his for-profit industry would benefit from, versus what is best for the American people,” Tlaib said.

But, she declared, “We’re not going to get played here, especially in the 13th Congressional District. We can see it from far away that he's incompetent, that he hasn't been able to follow through on the promises he made.”
