Monday on MSNBC’s “Hardball,” Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) said if President-elect Donald Trump or staff on his campaign had “collusion” or “exchanges of information,” with Russian government officials about former Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, that would justify impeachment.
Partial transcript as follows:
WATERS: When John talked about him being ill legitimate, he talked about the fact about whether or not the Russians did play a role in determining what happened in our elections and also I think John was talking about there are going to be more investigations to determine whether or not Trump or his advocates — people associated with him on his staff on the campaign, whether or not there was some collusion, exchanges of information, and whether of not they were strategizing together and I think that’s what he was trying to describe. Other people are trying to talk about this democracy and whether or not once you question whether someone’s legitimate that you are questioning whether or not the democracy works. People, you know, don’t want it to be that you’re deciding that somehow the electoral system doesn’t work, the democracy doesn’t work, et cetera. He’s talking about this unusual occurrence where in fact we know that the Russians played an important role and they tried to support Mr. Trump and they tried to make sure that Hillary Clinton didn’t get elected. So I think that’s a legitimate discussion.
MATTHEWS: Let’s talk about where that leads to. You raised a good point. If we find out that somebody on behalf of Donald Trump was on the phone or email relations with somebody in Russia or the ambassador from Russia and there was some sort of, as you call it, collusion, then what? Does that make Trump subject to impeachment?

Dumbest person in history? Top 10 anyway.
After reading some of her stuff, I’m surprised she can breathe without help.
Mo ziggin and zaggin. You lie bout it, I’ll swear to it.
Someone Should ask her if Clinton should have been impeached for getting questions ahead of time from Donna Brazille had she won the election.
Maxine, ESAD.
Won’t happen. The house is solid...unless someone buys off Ryan which...hmmm...
Use Waters to drain the swamp /sarc.
I wonder if she was worried about Ted Kennedy’s request for Soviet interference.
Maxine Waters’ IQ is the closest thing scientists have found to absolute zero.
Libs just LOVE conspiracy theories... especially when they serve the “bargaining” phase of their grieving process.
With schlubs like Maxine Waters, it doesn’t matter whether guilt exists or not.. it’s all about the charge.
There are no words extant to adequately describe the stupidity of that idiot.
>>Dumbest person in history?
Smart enough to hide in the herd and keep her husband out of jail....

Doesn’t say much for the character of the herd though, does it.
AT LEAST LET HIM TAKE OFFICE BEFORE CALLING FOR IMPEACHMENT.
GADS YOU ARE THE BIGGEST DUMBEST UGLIEST A-HOLE IN CONGRESS.
The media did its best to ignore the Podesta emails after they became public. Were any Bernie voters swayed into staying home on election day because of the emails? It would be hard to find evidence that any states flipped to Trump because of the emails.
But of course evidence doesn't matter.
This may keep up for the next four years--it's the Democrats' version of the "stab in the back" legend in Germany post-WWI.

Maxine STOP trying to be a comedian, you are not funny! But hearing you talk is funny! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Scurrilous Russians (or somebody) !!!
Trying to rig American elections by showing people the truth about democrats trying to rig American elections to get Hillary Clinton elected!
Darn foreign meddlers.
If the US government and the US media thought it was important for people to know about the democrats cheating and rigging elections they would have told us.
I suspect Trump will be using the new FBI to go after these corrupt politicians.
