Rep. Maxine Waters Struggles To Explain Why Trump Should Be Impeached [VIDEO]
The Daily Caller ^ | January 16, 2017 | Christian Datoc

Democratic California Rep. Maxine Waters had difficulty explaining why she thinks Donald Trump’s campaign attacks against Hillary Clinton are impeachable offenses while being interview by MSNBC’s Chris Matthews Monday night.

Waters, who will join Georgia Rep. John Lewis in boycotting Trump’s inauguration on Friday, first ran into difficulty when Matthews asked why some Democrats still view Trump as “illegitimate.”

(VIDEO-AT-LINK)

"If there’s some sort of — as you call it — collusion,” the Hardball host noted. “Then what? Does that make Trump subject to impeachment? Just generally, tell me what you mean by the term.”

“Well here’s what I’m trying to get to,” Waters responded. “If we discover that Donald Trump or his advocates played a role to help provide strategy — if they’re the ones who came up with ‘Crooked Hillary,’ if they’re the ones who came up with, ‘she’s ill, something’s wrong with her energy,’ and the way that he basically described her during the campaign — I think that is something that would put the question squarely on the table whether or not he should be impeached.”

“So, you think you can commit an impeachable offense before you take office?” Matthews incredulously asked the California Democrat.

“Well, I think that at the point that investigations discover and confirm and can document any of that role in helping to strategize — they had a role in attempting to determine the outcome,” she answered regardless of the actual question. “That in many ways they used the information they got when they hacked into emails etc. — if that was used against Hillary Clinton in some way, yes I think that’s impeachable.”

Maxine Waters struggles to spell her own name let alone being a member of congress.

I.Q.——90

She even says “eckcetera” ipo “etcetera”.


And she’s chair of the house banking committee. I was watching it about 2 years ago and she asked Bernanke if home mortgages would go up if the fed raised rates. And she’s the CHAIRMAN !

He gave a long winded answer to make her not feel stupid, but... Yes.

We need to impeach the president to find out why.

Also, Waters is Suffering From “Trump Unacceptance Resistance Disorder”

Committee chairs in congress are always members of the majority party. The House banking committee chair is currently Rep. Hensarling of Texas, and mindless Maxine isn’t currently on the committee.

I really think people should just lay off of Maxine, give her a break. She’s a very hard worker and involved in many projects.

I suspect her comments were not very well prepared because she has been working on plans with Hank Johnson on how to keep Guam from flipping over.

Anyone else that hard worked would not even be questioned.

She can’t be the chairman, the Republicans control the House.

You could fit what Maxine Waters knows about the US Constitution on the back of a postage stamp and you’d still have a lot of room to spare.

With an IQ of around 85, even speech is difficult.

Best laugh I’ve had all day——right up there with the floating Guam question.

The ignorance is astonishing.

The stupidity of the people who keep electing dorks like this is even more astonishing.
