Before leaving the White House for a speech in Jamestown, Virginia, President Trump speaks to reporters on the South Lawn. He says African Americans are very happy with the job he is doing as president. The president also defends his criticism of Representative Elijah Cummings and his district, which includes Baltimore. He says the congressman, who chairs the House Oversight and Reform Committee, should take his committee to his district and investigate the billions of dollars that have been "stolen" from the city, which he also says is "filthy dirty." close
