RedState  "As Brandon Morse wrote earlier today, President Trump rippedMSNBC‘s Al Sharpton for deciding to make a visit to Baltimore in the aftermath of the tweets Trump wrote over the weekend criticizing the city and longtime Rep. Elijah Cummings (D), whose Congressional district runs through Baltimore.

"As they did for Cummings, Democrats lined up on the Twitter machine to defend Sharpton. One of the more notable ones was 2020 presidential candidate and Sen. Kamala Harris (CA), who has enjoyed an uptick in polling since her racial broadside against frontrunner Joe Biden at the last debate.

"Here’s what Harris tweeted about Sharpton:

Kamala Harris

✔@KamalaHarris

.@TheRevAl has spent his life fighting for what's right and working to improve our nation, even in the face of hate. It's shameful, yet unsurprising that Trump would continue to attack those who have done so much for our country.

Let's flashback to when @JoeNBC introduced a resolution in Congress condemning "the racist and anti-semitic views of the Reverend Al Sharpton":https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/106/hconres270 …

The Freddie’s Fashion Mart Massacre:

In 1995 a black Pentecostal Church, the United House of Prayer, which owned a retail property on 125th Street, asked Fred Harari, a Jewish tenant who operated Freddie’s Fashion Mart, to evict his longtime subtenant, a black-owned record store called The Record Shack. Sharpton led a protest in Harlem against the planned eviction of The Record Shack. Sharpton told the protesters, “We will not stand by and allow them to move this brother so that some white interloper can expand his business.”

On December 8, 1995, Roland J. Smith Jr., one of the protesters, entered Harari’s store with a gun and flammable liquid, shot several customers and set the store on fire. The gunman fatally shot himself, and seven store employees died of smoke inhalation Fire Department officials discovered that the store’s sprinkler had been shut down, in violation of the local fire code. Sharpton claimed that the perpetrator was an open critic of himself and his nonviolent tactics. In 2002, Sharpton expressed regret for making the racial remark “white interloper” but denied responsibility for inflaming or provoking the violence.

The Tawana Brawley Rape Hoax: . . .

"Democrats and the mainstream media have been trying to sweep Sharpton’s true racist, anti-Semitic nature under the rug for decades, which has given him an air of respectability in media circles. But you can’t keep the truth hidden for long, and Sharpton pretending to play the role of racial healer in response to Trump’s (non-racist) criticisms about Cummings and his district is irony on steroids."
