A Maryland councilwoman is apparently suffering from Foot-In-Mouth disease.
Salisbury City Councilwoman April Jackson posted a Facebook status last Thursday proclaiming that President Trump is “RETARDED.”
“Ya’lls President is RETARDED…..He’s far pass the Holly Center,” Jackson wrote on her Facebook page.
For those that don’t know, the referenced Holly Center “is a state-operated, 24-hour residential training facility for individuals with developmental disabilities.”
That’s right. Jackson not only called the President of the United States “retarded,” she then made it worse by comparing Trump to a facility where mentally disabled or challenged people try to make their lives better.
Here's the original deleted post:
Anyone else notice that Jackson either "liked," "laughed" or "loved" her own post? Pathetic.
Not to be outdone, Jackson commented on the controversy surrounding her comments, and as far as I can tell, she apologized for nothing.
“I just used the Holly Center as a place I know where people have mental illness. I stand by what I said about (President Trump)..." Jackson said. "Maybe I was wrong for using the Holly Center to say something about (President Trump), but I stand by what I said about him.”
Maybe you were wrong?! Sorry, but Jackson is a bad person. People like Jackson always tell others that they need to be politically correct, but she sees no problem with what she said about not only the president, but mentally disabled people as well.

since she has no problems making fun of disabled people I want to point out the obvious that she is over weight and needs to loose some weight before calling others out.
She must step down.
When is the next Election ?
Just some hi-jinx by the Party of Liberal Jim. How did MRC know that Jake Day is "spineless"??
As much grief as the media gave Trump for making fun of the disabled reporter, this should be on MSM.
Imagine the outcry if Jake Day called our last POTUS an ethnic slur.
None here, because MSM thinks the same way she does.
It sounds like to me this 'apology' is an effort to save ones a$%s from ones mouth. The ONLY mental illness I see here is on the part of ignorance displayed by someone who was elected to represent the folks of the district she serves. I'm certain that now they've seen their error of electing a backwoods rube to further their interests in politics and public policy. I imagine the next trip they'll seek a candidate more polished or at least has some semblance of what a council member 'SHOULD BE'. Bob Aswell...sick of ignorance
She cant she is to low to the ground at 5"4 225lbs .
you get what you vote for........
ah , social media, the demise of many.
Ms. Jackson, the people who are residing at Holly Center are not mentally ill, they are Developmentally Disabled. Yes, some have a co-existing diagnosis of a mental illness, like some in the mainstream population do as well. Have you been checked???
Anyone else notice that Jackson either "liked," "laughed" or "loved" her own post? Pathetic.
Yes I sure did!!
Her grammar is terrible. She is not only stupid, but retarded herself and calls Trump names.
Obviously a product of the public education system.
And what does this say about the voters there?
I'll call them ignorant because only a few are actually stupid. It's unfortunate that ignorant, uninformed people elect ignorant, uninformed representatives in Congress. And it takes a President as bad as Obama to wake up intelligent people and force them to the polls to elect a leader like Reagan or Trump.
That is the elephant in the room, it did take BO's fundamental destruction agenda for this country to wake up the silent majority! Guess he did do the nation a favor otherwise we would be stuck with Make Me A Deal Hillary or Baby Boy Bush from the dynasty of the NWO elitist started by Grandpa with the Oil Barrens of the US and Arabia back in the day!
Wow, the hypocrisy and dysfunctionality of the looney- left snowflakes is on full display with April Jackson-who joins an ever-growing plethora of useful idiots on the left ie, Piglosi, Chuckie the Clown Schumer and Auntie Maxine Waters-racist's and hypocrites all, and yet it continues.
Only black people in mid-level positions can use that word and get by with it. It's like a black man calling another black man a "Nigger"..It's ok.....But if a white man calls a black man a "Nigger"?....Well..there's a shooting, burning of cars, buildings, police are called, police cars are burned, riots, national guard is called, police are shot at, bricks are thrown, #BLACKLIVESMATTER shut down interstates and cry discrimination. But...But....I watched MTV the other day?...and every Hip Hop video I watched where their were two black guys singing?....Oh, They didn't call each other Johhny or Bobby or even Bro...It was "Hey Nigga"...I think 95% of the lyrics consisted of those two words.....P. R. E, T. T. Y SAD.........
"The spineless mayor of Salisbury, Jake Day, defended Jackson purely on the basis that he knows her.
“This statement, while insensitive and careless and indicative of the pitfalls of social media,” said Day, “is not indicative of the heart or values of the April Jackson I know.”
Well, Mr. Mayor. You obviously don’t know everything about Jackson."
BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! They know Jake Day!!
I volunteered Sunday mornings at the Holly Center close to 25 years ago. I can assure you that the Holly Center residents have far more couth than Mrs. Jackson does.
Her grammar needs work...
A person with such disrespect for the highest office in our country should not be serving in any elected capacity; even as the dog catcher. Get her out of there!
