Maxine Waters: I threaten Trump supporters 'all the time'
The Hill ^ | 09/10/18 | Megan Keller

Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) mockingly said in a speech last weekend that she she threatens Trump supporters all the time, defending her comments in June urging supporters to harass members of President Trump's administration.

Waters said she was not threatening Trump supporters or constituents when she called on people to confront Trump Cabinet members and supporters in June — and said President Trump was wrong to accuse her of doing so at the time.

"I did not threaten [Trump] constituents and supporters. I do that all the time, but I didn't do that that time," Waters said to laughter from a crowd in Los Angeles.

Waters also said she was not advocating any violence against political opponents, and sought to draw a distinction between her remarks and President Trump's on that issue.

"What bothered me so much was, they tried to frame that as violence," Waters said. "That's not violence."

"The poster child for violence is the president of the United States. He's the one who threatens," she explained. "Don't forget at his rallies, when he said go ahead and beat them up, I'll take them out on a stretcher."

"I do not advocate violence," she said. "I do not believe you should hit, kick, shoot."

"We have to tell people the difference between violence and incivility and protesting," Waters added.

Waters earned attention and criticism for the remarks from June.

"I said, if you see them anywhere, if you see them in a restaurant, if you see them in a department store, even at a gasoline station, just tell them, you're not welcome here or anywhere," Waters recalled in the weekend remarks.

"Of course it frightened a lot of people," she added.

‘Threaten’ her; talk back to her; hate crime.

MAXINE MELTDOWN: ‘I say impeachment, impeachment, impeachment, impeachment, impeachment, impeachment, impeachment, impeachment!’

Mad Maxine Waters is obsessed with President Trump.
The California Congresswoman went after the president while accepting an award from the Stonewall Young Democrats on Saturday in Los Angeles.
At one point in the 20-minute speech, she bragged about threatening Trump supporters.

Her constituents would be better of with reduced crime and more jobs, but her priorities are unrelated and she doesn’t face the same issues. Doesn’t say much about her constituent’s intelligence since she keeps getting reelected.

Polluted Waters is a gift to the right.
A dumber human being existeth not.
And we thought we’d never see the eight sigma to the left of average.
Please, please keep talking, Ms Dumb*ass.

I can’t post what I think.

Me neither but I can say it involved an ice pick.

If I just stared at her in a restaurant I bet she’d cry within five minutes.

Meanwhile the ball-less leader of the House is invisible and has been for months.

They don’t censure much less chastise anyone these days it seems, deserved or not.

Ethics .. Morals .. Standards?

Key components of a vibrant gubamint and those who work in it for the betterment of all?

Or just words.. their meanings long forgotten?

Maxine should have been expelled years ago after her hubbby and her benefited off of his banking connections and her ‘skillset’.

In the words of another FReeper (forgot who it was, or would give proper credit) “Maxine Waters, for whom the bell curves.”

Reginald Denny should never have stopped. Had he continued, full throttle, through that intersection, he would have set the example for the rest of LA.
