Baltimore City Council Takes Action Against President-Elect Trump

BALTIMORE (WJZ) — Just days before Donald Trump heads to Baltimore, the City Council has taken action against the new leader. The council unanimously voted to condemn the president-elect’s rhetoric, but that could be a big risk.

The same day they were sworn in, the new City Council sparks controversy. Their first official act — unanimously condemning the rhetoric of President-Elect Donald Trump.

“I’m very proud that we’re one of the very first city councils in the United States of America to push back and say time for respect,” said City Councilwoman Mary Pat Clarke.

The move comes just days before the president-elect visits Baltimore for the Army-Navy football game.
