Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., called for the 25th Amendment to the Constitution to be used against President Donald Trump on Friday, suggesting he was unfit, during a discussion about his removal of Lisa Cook from the Federal Reserve's Board of Governors.
"It is time to call for Article [Amendment] 25 of the Constitution of the United States of America to determine his unfitness, to determine that something’s wrong with this president. And I would suggest that we move very aggressively to talk about the danger to this country and to our democracy and not play around with this, because this is absolutely one of the most destructive things that this president could do," Waters said during an appearance on MSNBC's "The Weeknight."
Trump removed Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook on Monday, alleging she misrepresented mortgage information.
"This stands to basically upend the entire economy. This stands to really deal with what is going to happen on Wall Street, what’s going to happen with interest rates, what’s going to happen with the president of the United States being able to make decisions that he will personally benefit from. And so the world, and certainly the United States, should be watching this very closely. As far as I’m concerned, we have to move very aggressively. It is not about lingering and trying to think that maybe the courts will help us," Waters said on MSNBC.
Cook sued Trump on Thursday, arguing that the president had not met the standard of a removal for cause and requesting a restraining order to allow her to remain on the Federal Reserve.
The case is likely headed to the Supreme Court and marks a major escalation in the growing clash between the White House and the Federal Reserve.

Maxine and Schiff are the proof that the people of CA are nuts.
She’s worthless, stupid, and ugly. What a way to go through life.
The only thing wrong with Trump is he is not playing hard enough against you actual racist fascist scum such as you Waters.
I bet the daughter she pays to stuff envelopes will run for her seat when she kicks the bucket.
You forgot evilness.
The Grinch at 100 years old?
40 million illegal turds bringing their rotten cultures, crimes, and diseases no problem.
Trump firing some crackpot on the fed. = greatest threat to muh democracy ever.

Hey! Maxine! You first, dumbass.

“...When commies say “Our Democracy” they mean their communist open border agenda...”
Exactly.
Their so-called “democracy” is a direct, dire threat to our Constitutional Republic.
When anybody starts with the “our democracy” spiel I tune them out. The US is not a democracy. If you don’t understand the type of government we have here anything else you say is suspect.

To the DC scoundrels constantly denigrating President Trump and accusing him of wrong doing, the only thing I can see that they can accuse him of that is true is that he’s not a criminal like they are. MAGA!
As my mom would kindly say She isn’t very bright.
Besides being an idiot, she’s evil to her rotten core.
She needs to free the groundhog that is living on her head.
