Rep. Maxine Waters: Trump ‘Believes in Nothing’ and Will Be Impeached by December
Townhall.com ^ | August 8, 2017 | Lauretta Brown

Rep Maxine Waters (D-CA) has been getting quite a bit of attention lately for her strong opposition to President Trump and frequent calls for his impeachment. She called President Trump “the worst” president she’s ever seen in a recent interview with “The Breakfast Club” saying he “believes in nothing.”

"I think he believes in nothing," Waters said. "I think that he cares about nothing. I think that he's capable of doing outrageous things."

"I believe it is possible to impeach him,” she said. “How long is it going to take? I don't know, but I give it to about December."

The interviewer then reminded her that the vice president would then become president.

“Could be and we’ll get him next,” she replied.

She called Trump a “a deplorable human being” who “mimicked and mocked a disabled journalist, talked about grabbing women by their private parts, stalked Hillary Clinton.”

Her stalking comment is likely in reference to the way then-candidate Trump worked the stage during an October presidential debate.

Waters said he should be impeached not only because of “the way he conducted himself during the campaign" but because "we learned a lot about his allies and his associates who had ties to Russia and to the Ukraine and to oil and so I knew that this was someone who had been involved with collusion with the Russians in undermining our democracy.”

This is nothing new for Rep. Waters who was honored Saturday evening at BET’s “Black Girls Rock!” celebration.

Waters thanked her peers, saying that if it wasn’t for the "love and respect" shown to her by black women, her Republican counterparts would "have me believe I’m too black, I’m too confrontational, that I’m too disrespectful of them."

“Not only will we resist you, we will impeach you, Donald Trump” she said to a cheering crowd.

Waters called Trump a “disgusting, poor excuse of a man” and slammed his Cabinet as “ill-prepared, right-wing billionaires” at an Emily's List gala in May.

You know there are people at the DNC who want to shut this woman up, but she is speaking for the rabid lunatic lefty base of their party. If they attempt to get her off the public stage she will cry racism and we know the PC Pajama Boy Democrats will wilt under that kind of accusation. Maxine Waters is a disgrace to this nation, but her rambling and vocal stupidity is a gift to our side. Keep on yapping those gums Mad Max!

And Liberal Millenials follow her like the Pied Piper, which will make it very tricky for the Dems to try and distance themselves from her come election time.

maxine can always be counted on to provide humor in the halls of Congress, a place where you rarely see a clown.

Maxine Waters Leads the Charge to Impeach Trump But Forgets Her Own ‘Russian’ Connections
Heatstreet ^ | April 25, 2017 | By Lukas Mikelionis / FR Posted by COUNTrecount

California Congresswoman Maxine Waters has become the leading figure behind the “Impeach Trump” movement over his alleged connections to Russia. But as Rep. Waters makes unproven allegations of Russian influence on American politics, shouldn’t she first look in the mirror and her own “Russian” connections?

Rep. Waters, who’s been in Democratic Party trenches since being first elected in 1990, has called for Trump’s impeachment 25 times in recent months, even though she told MSNBC last week that “I have not called for impeachment.”

CNN reported that Waters is “having a moment” and attracting all the other progressives who didn’t fall for Bernie Sanders’ revolution. Other left-wing publications, meanwhile, suggested she’s “The Millennials’ Political Rock Star” and should even run for president (she has no such plans yet).

It’s a dramatic transformation for Rep. Waters, who was previously on political life support due to a 2010 ethics investigation by the House Ethics Committee for allegedly helping a bank, where her husband had a stake, get federal funds during the financial crisis.

Private groups like Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) put Waters on their list of corrupt members of Congress in 2005, 2006, 2009, and 2011. In 2012, Waters was cleared of all charges of potential corruption, but her top aide was charged.

Yet while the California Congresswoman rails against Trump, she hypocritically forgets her very open relationship with pro-Russian, anti-American groups.

Waters has long been a close associate of the radical Workers World Party, a militant left-wing group that has expressed sympathy for anti-American governments such as North Korea’s, Cuba’s, Iran’s, and Iraq’s under Saddam Hussein.

The party also has favorable views of the Russian invasion of Ukraine and of its progenitor, Russian President Vladimir Putin. The opinions of the Workers World Party and its sister groups are often broadcast by RT (formerly Russia Today), a Kremlin propaganda arm. For instance, Richard Becker of a group named ANSWER (Act Now to End War And Racism), an organization started by the Workers World Party, once said on RT air that “Russia is not threat to the US, but to its domination”.

In its own fringe publication, the Workers World Party once blamed European and American “imperialism” for the conflict in Ukraine and called this imperialism “a setback to Russia”.

” So, impeachment is a pipe dream.”

Ummm........No. If they were sane, yes. If they were able to think rationally, logically, and clearly, yes. However and unfortunately that is not the case. Both the Republicans and Democrats have allowed their blind hatred of President Trump, and us, to deprive them of the ability to think. Get rid of Trump whatever the cost is their sole and only goal. They have allowed their hatred to drive them insane. An attempt will be made to impeach and remove President Trump from Office. Whether it is successful or not, remains yet to be seen.

If we were dealing with sane clear thinking, rational, lucid, logical individuals, I would agree with you. Impeachment is a pipe dream. But unfortunately, we are not. Therefore it is best to be prepared for the worse. If the worse happens, we are prepared. If the worse doesn’t happen, we are pleased.

Maxipad’s too goofy for even the Left to run. The mulatto version of Nancy Pelosi (a.k.a., Kamala Harris) is the Left’s current darling.

And these idiots also think that impeaching Trump will be enough to throw him out of office. They don’t realize there is another step in the process.
