Maxine Waters next House speaker: Dem activist
Fox News ^ | Aug, 05, 2017

Democrats have “no reason” to try to make bipartisan legislative deals with President Trump and should instead wait until next year when outspoken Democrat Maxine Waters leads the House and Chuck Schumer leads the Senate, Democratic activist Robert Patillo said Saturday.

“Democrats looking at a president hovering around a 30 percent approval rating have no reason to run into a burning building and try to put it out, when they should instead just wait for 2018 when they have Speaker of the House Maxine Waters and Senate leader Chuck Schumer,” Patillo, an attorney, civil rights activist and Atlanta radio host, told Fox News’ “America’s News Headquarters.”

Waters, a California congresswoman, has been one of Trump’s most outspoken Democratic critics, with her calls to impeach him creating buzz about a possible 2020 presidential bid.

Patillo’s comment presumes Democrats next year would retake control of the House and Senate and that Waters would unseat now-House Minority Leader Rep. Nancy Pelosi, of California, who has been the chamber’s top Democrat for roughly the past 11 years.

Schumer, of New York, is now the Senate minority leader.

Democrats next year would have to win a net total of about 35 House seats.

If this comes to pass we will be doomed. And if the Demonrats complete the trifecta with a ‘rat president in 2020 it will put an exclamation point after doomed. Trump was our last chance.

If the Rats take the House which they won’t, even they aren’t crazy enough to elect Mad Maxine Speaker.

Maxine Waters will not and cannot be speaker of the House of Representatives. The republicans are, and will continue to be, in the majority.

Next red herring.

“Definitely not one of the cognitively privileged.”

Yes and she’s dumber than Nazi Pelosi and that’s saying a lot. Added together, their combined IQ is still a single digit number.
