Maria Chappelle-Nadal’s Facebook comment was so egregious that even ABC News reported on the story.
The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports:
Missouri state Sen. Maria Chappelle-Nadal, D-University City, posted a comment in a Facebook conversation Thursday morning saying she hoped President Donald Trump will be assassinated.
The comment was removed but Chappelle-Nadal confirmed to the Post-Dispatch that she had written it in response to another commenter before deleting it.
Then on Thursday Chappelle-Nadal tweeted out a Holocaust threat to Jewish Missouri Governor Eric Greitens.
On Friday Missouri Lt. Governor Mike Parsons told Senator Chappelle-Nadal to step down or be removed from office.
Now this…
Maria Chappelle-Nadal finally issued a tearful apology on Sunday in a Facebook interview that streamed live.
FOX News reported:
Amid calls for her resignation, a Democratic state senator in Missouri on Sunday said she made a mistake for posting on Facebook Thursday that she hopes President Donald Trump is assassinated.
State Sen. Maria Chappelle-Nadal — who has said she isn’t resigning over the post — apologized at a press conference streamed live on the Facebook page of the Clayton Times, a St. Louis County newspaper.
“President Trump, I apologize to you and your family,” Chappelle-Nadal said at the Wellspring Church in Ferguson, Missouri. “I also apologize to all the people in Missouri. And I also apologize to my colleagues in the Missouri legislature for the mistake that I made.”

The offense is too great, and she should be taken out of office. In workplace culture, many other women have often used the same drama tactic in order to be immune against being fired. That’s one of the reasons so many Antifa members can continue to afford to pay for their trips. It’s also a small part of the reason that so many employers favor them over clean cut men.
Wasn’t it just yesterday, she proudly ranted/screamed, “No apologies!”
Get out of America, you vile BLMer!
Seppuku.
ribs or popeyes summit???
Crocodile tears.
Who would want her to be preparing their food? Fast food restaurants are already run by too many drug addicts and other antisocial characters.
A state senator calling for the assassination of the President?
How is this not sedition? Expulsion from the Missouri Senate should be the first part of her punishment
The apology period should be after she is tried, convicted and sentenced.
Or she pleads guilty, resigns and goes to jail for threatening our president.
Anything uttered from her face is just that, meaningless utterings.
Who’s gonna do it?
Working at McDonald’s is an honest job. Being a politician is not.

Can someone be charged for saying she wished the president would be assassinated? It was not a direct threat. Any lawyers here to address that?
How is this not sedition? Expulsion from the Missouri Senate should be the first part of her punishment
She might be charged with acts of Seditious conspiracy against President Trump!, if she did this with others!
18 U.S. Code § 2384 - Seditious conspiracy US Code
If two or more persons in any State or Territory, or in any place subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, conspire to overthrow, put down, or to destroy by force the Government of the United States, or to levy war against them, or to oppose by force the authority thereof, or by force to prevent, hinder, or delay the execution of any law of the United States, or by force to seize, take, or possess any property of the United States contrary to the authority thereof, they shall each be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than twenty years, or both.

I've said for several days now that this mutant shouldn't resign. The GOP in Missouri should make her the face of the Democrat Party.
Shades of Kathy Griffin. He "broke" her.
She's a D-List politician, just as Kathy Griffin (I won't insult Kimberly Guilfoyle by saying "KG") is a D-List celebrity personality.
Black voters vote for black candidates because they are black.
Black voters voted for Jesse Jackson Jr. even though he was in prison for fraud.
Black Supremacists.
To a person with any morals, Sen. Chapelle-Nadal stepped way over the line. Since many of these “Representatives” have no moral boundary, that line will likely be moved and it could become accepted vernacular, with the help of the media.
Cry me a river lady. I think the majority of Americans are sick and tired of you unhinged people. You need to resign and if you don’t the dim party needs to kick you out but somehow I don’t think that will happen.
Thank you for bringing that up because SEDITION is what I keep seeing with these plots to cause chaos and unseat a sitting President.
