Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) on Thursday suggested that President Trump could be charged with obstruction of justice, after he cited ongoing investigations into Russian election meddling in his explanation of why he fired FBI Director James Comey.

"I think he can be looked at and perhaps even charged with obstruction of justice," Waters said on MSNBC's "All in with Chris Hayes". "I've said all along that he would lead us to impeachment and he's doing just that."

Trump told NBC's Lester Holt in an interview aired Thursday that he had made the decision to fire Comey on his own, directly contradicting the White House's claim that he had ousted the FBI director after Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein recommended it.

“Regardless of recommendation, I was going to fire Comey,” Trump said.

Isn't Rep. Waters being investigated for exposing her ignorance in public?

I don't think that Maxine is representative of anything except a stark raving lunatic howling moonbat. Pity if many voters in her district are equally impaired. (If The Hill put "Maxine Waters" in the headline, there would be no reason to click on the story!)

Drooling lumps throwing feces at the people around their sanctuary. These Democrats are self-immolating, and it’s more fun to watch than a barrel of Maxines.

Mad Maxine needs to recuse herself from the planet. Give the human race a much needed break.

...and her nephew, and Chicken of the Sea factory in Samoa, where she and the little mister have big investments. Their corruption knows no bounds. Public service my ass; more like public servicing.
