Maxine Waters owed an apology from top Dems for not protecting her against Trump verbal attacks (tr)

Black female leaders and allies are blasting House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer for what they see as their “failure” to protect Rep. Maxine Waters from “unwarranted attacks from the Trump administration and others in the GOP.”

“We write to share our profound indignation and deep disappointment over your recent failure to protect Congresswoman Waters from unwarranted attacks from the Trump Administration and others in the GOP,” the group of nearly 200 women wrote in a letter sent Tuesday. “That failure was further compounded by your decision to unfairly deride her as being ‘uncivil’ and ‘un-American.’”

“In doing so, we believe this mischaracterizes her call to action for peaceful democratic assembly and the exercise of her constitutional rights to free speech in support of defenseless immigrant children and their families,” the women wrote.

The group of black female leaders includes activists, religious leaders, academics, local elected officials, and some men.

“Disparaging or failing to support Congresswoman Waters is an affront to her and Black women across the country and telegraphs a message that the Democratic Party can ill afford: that it does not respect Black women’s leadership and political power and discounts the impact of Black women and millennial voters,” the women wrote.

Full title: "Rep. Maxine Waters owed an apology from top Dems for not protecting her against 'uwarranted' Trump verbal attacks, nearly 200 black female leaders say"

"Unwarranted attacks?" Are they serious? Waters is the one who called for her supporters to cause trouble. Her race/gender have nothing to do with Trump's comments about her.

Dear Democrat leaderships...
I wholeheartedly support the black female leaders criticizing the democrat leadership for not supporting Maxie Waters. She is the true face of the democrat party and should be encouraged to become as unhinged as is her hearts desire.

Signed,
DJT Supporter

The cow is owed nothing. She owes apologies to those conservative female politicians being attacked at her say-so.

The left 911 mentality America should apologize to Bin Laden because we deserved it

See per their logic Trump deserves it so she can say and do anything and everything but no one can’t attack Maxine that’s unfair

1. Maxine Waters wears James Brown's energizer wig, from which she derives all her power. Pulling the wig off instantly puts her to sleep, while her staff places it on a special charger. 2. Her 43rd congressional district in California is shaped like a penis. She loves it, even though she hasn't seen it in a long time. She blames the Republicans and Trump for how it is pointing downward. In her mind the words "The South will rise again" have a whole different meaning. 3. Maxine Waters once refused to save 15% or more by switching to Geico because that would have made her a sellout to corporate interests.

She has publicly talked about a “mute point” and the “statue of limitations”. Trump is right in pointing out her low IQ.

“Black female leaders ... black female leaders ... Black women ... Black women’s leadership ... Black women ....”

It certainly isn’t all-about-me with this group, is it?

““mute point” and the “statue of limitations”.

The people that keep voting her in wouldn’t even know what was wrong with those two examples-——and I am sure that there are many more.

She brought it on herself by making idiotic pronouncements and encouraging violence against conservatives.

And if she is not supported by Democrat leadership who are marginally smarter than her and realize that inciting violence is not a winning tactic? *Shrug*

So... in essence

MaxMax talks the talk but can’t walk the walk.

Oddly appropriate.

The top Dems were so offensive to her they owe Maxine the nomination to run against Trump in 2020.

Otherwise they are raciss, misogynist Nazis.
