Rep. Alcee Hastings (D-FL) joked over the weekend that it would be a "catastrophe" if anybody jumped in after President Trump if he fell into the Potomac River, which goes through Washington, D.C. Hastings said he was borrowing the joke from Ari Silver, the son of former Florida state lawmaker Barry Silver.
The Daily Caller has the video.
“I will tell you one joke,” Hastings said at a rally in Sunshine, FL. “Do you know the difference between a crisis and a catastrophe?”
“‘A crisis is if Donald Trump falls into the Potomac River and can’t swim,'” Hastings said, retelling the joke. “‘And a catastrophe is anybody saves his ass."
Dem. Rep. Alcee Hastings Jokes: “It’s A Catastrophe” If Someone Saves A Drowning President Trump
Hastings's cruel comedic routine, which got cheers from the audience, follows a few other Democrats' who have joked about wishing harm on Republicans. Last week, Rep. Steve Cohen (D-TN) joked at a community prayer breakfast - yes, a prayer breakfast - that he wishes Rep. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) would jump off a bridge. He said she would do it if asked by Trump.
“He’s going to come down here and he is going to endorse Marsha Blackburn, because Marsha Blackburn, if he says, ‘Jump off the Harahan Bridge,’ she’ll jump off the Harahan Bridge,” Cohen said. “I wish he’d say that.”
Asked for a response, Cohen told the Huffington Post it was "obviously humor."
Other Democrats, like Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) have dared people to "harass" Trump supporters and Trump administration members anywhere they can find them.
Many have bullied White House employees, like the time Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders could not even enjoy a peaceful meal.
Brennan, Hastings, Cuomo, Waters, etc., are the lowest form of humanity, true Democrat Party “America Haters”!!! But.......you all must remember, they all march to the rumbling drums and wishes from “THEIR” Satan, Commander-In-Chief, Ex-POTUS, Barack Hussein Obama and his lap sister, the criminal, Hillary Clinton!!!
Trump, do let up on these turncoats and would be American destroyers. Go POTUS, Donald J. Trump, Go MAGA, Go, to Trump rallies by the thousands....Americans, All!!!
Democrats are finding out they are as useful as road kill.
Dig the hole deeper, you leftard jackass.
It seems the Whole democrat party has slipped to the lowest rung on the ladder. If at one time they showed some class, they’ve thrown it to the wind.
I’ve watched the democrat party slipping, slowy at first, but in 2017 they’ve shown they are full blown communists.
I remember during the clinton and bush 2 administrations, of a lot of democrats attending socialist meetings.
The Democrat party is one over sized cesspool with the occasional turd rising to the top from time to time.
A liberal goal to be reached;
Having Trump; foety fi; be impeached.
Their vile hearts would be mellow;
If they could string up the ol’ fellow.
Or have him drowned; like a whale; on the beach.
If I didn’t know any better, I’d say the Demonrat Party is not very confident of the claimed “blue wave”.
[Rep. Alcee Hastings (D-FL)]
Ah, this old racist troublemaker.
lol.
or the judiciary committee?!
give the democrats time
Congress is REALLY corrupt. Pathetic losers.
The one who was impeached and convicted? That Alcee Hastings?
I guess it’s OK to joke about lynching Demoscum now...
Way ahead of you. But I’ll joke a little extra in honor of this extinguished gentleman.
What’s a disaster? Al Sharpton misspelling the word ‘respict’ while honoring Aretha Franklin’s memory. What’s a catastrophe? Challenging him to a game of Hangman, and being called a racist.
Just another Hank Johnson....!!
If Trump falls into the river he will walk on it back to shore. Fools!
When world war comes to our shores, I want this guy on the front lines..
When world war comes to our shores, I want this guy on the front lines................... We’ll make sure he’s right next to you if you want him that badly.
“The one who was impeached and convicted? That Alcee Hastings?”
Yep, one and the same.
