Kim Klacik editorial in the Baltimore Sun

I expect more from The Baltimore Sun than graceless screeds. You are not the right-wing media or a partisan liberal rag. You are the editorial board of Maryland’s paper of record. Like it or not, I am the Republican nominee for a contested congressional race where the Democratic nominee was pushed out of the NAACP, according to your reporting, amid allegations of sexual harassment, nepotism and mismanagement. That is the candidate you have endorsed. I am a woman of color running in a state that has no women in any elected federal or statewide offices. But you have now twice, without ever having met or interviewed me, attacked and mocked me on your opinion page (“Is Kim Klacik running for Congress, mayor or chief Trump enabler?” Aug. 19). What gives?

By the way, in the spirit of your paper’s fact-checking duties, was any of what I said inaccurate? In the past 50 years, was there a Republican City Council or mayor or congressman I missed? Are we not among the five deadliest cities in America every year? Are the city’s homicide victims not overwhelmingly Black?

Damn screen jumped on me when I tried to paste a part of the article and I accidentally hit submit.
I feel shame for breaking the cardinal rule of no blind links even by accident.

Sadly, you too appear to believe Black voters are incapable of voting for excellence and instead will cast their ballot for the lowest common Black denominator. I will reflect on what I have done to inspire your mistrust and what I can do to lessen it — I hope you will do the same.
Straight fire

Your rep requires no summary. As far as I am concerned at least.

Hey Kim. Move to Baton Rouge and run for mayor, please!

She is so correct here. Americans should be able to vote for whoever they want to without being shamed for doing so. That is freedom and every American should enjoy it.

It would seem based on the paper that all that she has to do is be a Democrat to lessen their mistrust. As for the paper earning her trust, based on what she wrote, it seems as though they have a whole lot of work to do.

Or mayor of Nola...or Gov of La. Can she do it all?

I'd say Mayor of Seattle or Governor of Washington...but this area only pays lip service to you if you aren't white or asian.

Damn. I wish she would move to Asheville so I'd have someone decent to vote for besides Trump.

Can you just imagine the fireworks to come between Kim and The Squad? LOL!!!
