Ben Carson, who was a surgeon at John Hopkins in Baltimore for over 35 years, was addressing comments President Donald Trump made about Baltimore.
WASHINGTON – Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson on Wednesday criticized the"animosity" from Morning Star Baptist Church of Christ in Baltimore after his staff was asked to move a press conference he was holding about President Donald Trump's recent comments on the city from property owned by the church.
The president over the weekend criticized Rep. Elijah Cummings, who represents a part of Baltimore and called the city"a disgusting, rat and rodent infested mess." Trump has doubled down on his claims and said they were not racist.More: Recording reveals Ronald Reagan making racist remarks to President Richard Nixon
Carson said he thinks that everyone should be willing to come together to talk about the issues facing the city in an effort to improve Baltimore. However, he said there is"animosity," and pointed to the church asking the press conference to be moved off their property.
