Trump re election banner at Orioles/Blue Jays game

President Trump isn't a beloved figure in a number of areas of the United States. But his latest antics have turned him into one of Baltimore's most-hatest humans. This didn't stop a group of fans from causing a ruckus by bringing a Trump re-election banner to an Orioles game. 

In the eighth inning of the Orioles' contest against the Toronto Blue Jays, a group of men unraveled a Trump banner. The sign read, "Re-elect Donald Trump, 2020. Keep America Great" and hung from the upper deck behind home plate. This revived the crowd, which was lulled to sleep by their team's poor performance.

Last week, Trump went on the offensive against Maryland Democratic Representative Elijah Cummings. In the process, he sent a few strays towards the city of Baltimore.

Rep, Elijah Cummings has been a brutal bully, shouting and screaming at the great men & women of Border Patrol about conditions at the Southern Border, when actually his Baltimore district is FAR WORSE and more dangerous. His district is considered the Worst in the USA......

....As proven last week during a Congressional tour, the Border is clean, efficient & well run, just very crowded. Cumming District is a disgusting, rat and rodent infested mess. If he spent more time in Baltimore, maybe he could help clean up this very dangerous & filthy place

"Rep. Elijah Cummings has been a brutal bully, shouting and screaming at the great men & women of Border Patrol at the Southern Border, when actually his Baltimore district is FAR WORSE and more dangerous," Trump tweeted. He went on to call Baltimore "a disgusting, rat and rodent infested mess."

As a result, the sight of the Trump 2020 banner made the hometown crowd a little rowdy. They started to chant "Take it down!" which forced stadium officials to step in and defuse the situation.

According to The Baltimore Sun, the sign violated Camden Yards' policies. Close to 10 minutes after the banner was revealed, authorities ejected four fans from the stadium.
