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.”
At least she was great looking..............
Calling Clinton “Crooked Hillary” is an impeachable offense, but calling Trump a “NAZI” and all supporters “deplorable” is grounds for higher office.
This is the liberal mind.
Yeah, her.
She belongs in Mensa (next to Maxine, et. al.) Seriously, at least she had youth going for her.
Thank you , thank you , thank you !! At least I won't have nightmares tonight thinking about what could go wrong with banking, under her oversight (?)!!
Soooo...because Trump used public information to show why Hilary was not a good candidate he should be impeached.
These leftists simply cant figure out why they lost.
Maxine should be cleaning motel rooms.
Hey Mears... It was worse than Guam floating...it was the possibility that it might capsize. That’s a whole other stupid.
Maxine currently represents the 43rd district in Ca. which includes south central Los Angeles, Carson, Torrance, Inglewood, Lomita and Hawthorne. Some of the very worst ghettos in all of Calif. 85% or so blacks. Oakland has nothing on them.
Oppugnant
Soooo...because Trump used public information to show why Hilary was not a good candidate he should be impeached.[
Thanks, i couldnt figure what the heck she was saying. So impeachment #2, is Trump reading the wikileak docs on his campaign stumps.
I’m glad that she’s talking impeachment before he takes office. The defense for such talk can now be, “They’ve been talking about impeachment since before Trump assumed office, fake news”. It’s kind of funny though, they can’t even stop the dismantling of Obama’s greatest achievement, ObamaCare. har har har
Yeah, well if she were then you sure had better hide your wallet.
If anybody should have been impeached Obama comes to mind then Erick Holder, Loretta Lynch, then Comey.. Then throw them in jail with Hillary Chelsea and Bill!!!
She wouldn't last a week before she was fired.
“Hey Mears... It was worse than Guam floating...it was the possibility that it might capsize. That’s a whole other stupid.”
I know that,and how on earth the guy interviewing him kept a straight face is beyond me.

The crazy black broad from The People’s Republic of California was trying to speak Ebonics.
Old as dirt?
Even idiots deserve representation. That’s where Waters comes in. Waters serves a purpose. The idiot spokesperson for idiots.
