Senator Maxine Waters? Biden creates confusion with offhand remark about primary run
NY Post ^ | 06/30/2021 | Steven Nelson

President Biden on Wednesday encouraged either Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) or Rep. Jesus “Chuy” Garcia (D-Ill.) to run for the Senate — creating a dilemma because incumbent Democrats hold both seats up for election in 2022.

Biden greeted Garcia and Waters, whose name he pronounced “Walders,” at a bill signing event in the White House-adjacent Eisenhower Executive Office Building.

“Yeah, we’re here,” Waters said to Biden.

“Hey Chuy, how are you, man?” Biden said.

Biden shook Garcia’s hand, then shook Waters’ hand. “Senator, I hope. You think I’m kidding, I’m not,” Biden said.

Waters, 82, shrugged and gave what appeared to be a “who knows” expression, indicating she believed Biden was talking to her.

"Waters, 82, shrugged"

To paraphrase Mad Maxi, Raspberry, 46!

Creates? I think that with Biden, like the song goes...’all he has to do is act naturally’.

Let’s not all jump to conclusions here. Maybe Biden simply wanted Waters to try out for the Ottawa Senators hockey team.

No, Waters is showing her "I don't have any idea what's going on" resting face. That changes to "I'm scowling because I hate whitey" soon after.

New hockey star Maxine.

So that’s the reason all the sports betting money shifted to the new guy “Walders” and his team. A stampede.

You make a great point.

Evidence - there clearly is a great deal of FIGHT in “Stay-In-The-Streets-And-Get-Confrontational” Marxine.

The way they’ve been playing since they traded Erik Karlsson, they just might give her a shot...

These elders will die in office. Government is that good to them.

Or maybe Biden thought the Washington Senators were still an active MLB team...?

FRiends, take my word for it: if Waters ran for Senate here she would not get through the primary. Stupid as our voters are, they’re not as stupid as the voters in her district. There are plenty of young intersectional communists here who will be willing to run…no need from the rats point of view to bring this hag on board
