Rep. Maxine Waters (D., Calif.), a ranking member on the House Financial Services Committee, said on Monday that she refuses to sit down with President-elect Donald Trump to find common ground on policy differences.

MSNBC host Jacob Soboroff asked Waters whether she agreed with incoming Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer’s (D., N.Y.) strategy of working with the Trump administration on areas they can find agreement.

“No, absolutely. I do not agree. I tell you that been a problem in my party that when we are in power, we are nice. We bend over backwards to work with people,” Waters said. “Trump has stepped on everybody. He has no respect for his own colleagues, let alone those on the opposite side of the aisle.”

I’d be surprised if they share much of anything in common.

Yo, Maxine, you weren't asked so shut up and go away. What's with libs and their craving for AtTeNtIoN? She's out running her mouth and getting facetime over something that never happened.

I don’t think Trump is clammoring for a “sit down” with Maxine.

They could look for common ground on her desire to nationalize the oil companies.

That would be fun to watch.

If that is what they consider being nice, then they all need to be locked up before we see their mean side.

With my many years roaming the “Glades” she reminds me of two creatures that I’ve seen there!
The Mudfish, UGLY and not worth catching.
CrocoGator is the other, mean and can’t get along with even it’s on kind. The CrocoGator eats everything and has no anus. That’s what makes them mean and nasty!

Her loss, and I doubt Trump will hold it against her pipple.

Democrats like her continue to behave badly. Don't they understand that they are going to be without power for at least two years (and more God willing)? During that time, if they won't work with the party in power, they won't be able to claim any benefits for their voters. If they are out of power longer the voters may start to abandon them even in the cities.

Just recently they complained of Trump "Slow-Walking" his cabinet picks (and he's not even in power yet!). Don't they realize we can see them implementing their Smear and Character attacks already?

The Democrats like this are behaving badly and it shows.
