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.
Harvey Weinstein was off limits, too.
It is important she continue to think she is effective. Her very presence drives responsible citizens from the democrat party. #walkaway
Maxine is a hot babe. /sarc
Dont kid yourself. Her constituents feel the same way. The kavanaugh hearing reinforced just how much the left hates conservatives and Christians. I have no doubt they would gladly line us up on a wall and shoot us without a qualm.
If she was a bunch of guys here would be declaring “not guilty”
Maxiween has a mandatory visit from karma TBD.
Reginald Denny (of blessed memory) should never have stopped.
In the years since, the leftist news media carefully censor all such news, anyway.
A suspect ( name known hours ago but withheld, with description missing) is loose and the police ask for citizens’ help to call and give any info. they have on his whereabouts. No mention he is lurking a certain group of houses and is a Muslim with a knife and two firearms and lots of ammo and uses the ruse that his family’s car just broke down and he needs your phone). Please call the police when you see him.
Heaven is looking better all the time. Sure beats living in a democrap godless hades hole of which the greater one is their destination.
Agree with every word.
If a non person of color ever says they wish they could slap a white glove in her face they will be arrested, indicted and be in Leavenworth within a week with no chance of parole. Their house and car will be totally trashed, looted and burned and their family have to change their names in another town. Laws need to be upheld, you know. Except for Maxine and her mob.
