Maxine Waters Calls For Impeachment If Trump Campaign Colluded With Russia
Breitbart ^ | January 16, 2017 | Pam Key

Posted on 01/17/2017 7:05:23 AM PST by COUNTrecount

Monday on MSNBC’s “Hardball,” Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) said if President-elect Donald Trump or staff on his campaign had “collusion” or “exchanges of information,” with Russian government officials about former Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, that would justify impeachment.

Partial transcript as follows:

WATERS: When John talked about him being ill legitimate, he talked about the fact about whether or not the Russians did play a role in determining what happened in our elections and also I think John was talking about there are going to be more investigations to determine whether or not Trump or his advocates — people associated with him on his staff on the campaign, whether or not there was some collusion, exchanges of information, and whether of not they were strategizing together and I think that’s what he was trying to describe. Other people are trying to talk about this democracy and whether or not once you question whether someone’s legitimate that you are questioning whether or not the democracy works. People, you know, don’t want it to be that you’re deciding that somehow the electoral system doesn’t work, the democracy doesn’t work, et cetera. He’s talking about this unusual occurrence where in fact we know that the Russians played an important role and they tried to support Mr. Trump and they tried to make sure that Hillary Clinton didn’t get elected. So I think that’s a legitimate discussion.

MATTHEWS: Let’s talk about where that leads to. You raised a good point. If we find out that somebody on behalf of Donald Trump was on the phone or email relations with somebody in Russia or the ambassador from Russia and there was some sort of, as you call it, collusion, then what? Does that make Trump subject to impeachment?

Impeachment is usually a removal from office step as the prosecution step can’t happen in office. Since Hillary and the New Zealand Prime Minister (just removed) colluded with her donations of New Zealand funds to the Clinton Foundation, does Maxine understand that that actual collusion with foreign powers requiring prosecution has been done by Hillary?

“hillary is the legitimate president, she won the popular vote” “the Russians ‘hacked’ the election in order to influence the outcome”

So then, the Russians really wanted Hillary to win.

Yes, the Russian hacked the election to give Hillary a popular vote plurality.

But they didn't understand that whole business about the electoral college.

Maxine Waters can call for anything she wants.

Getting anything she wants is a totally different story.

Why is she so butt ugly that someone should shave her head and make her walk backwards.

Great improvement.

This is the same genius that told a oil company CEO in 2008: “Guess what this liberal would be all about? This liberal would be about socializing … uh, umm. … Would be about, basically, taking over, and the government running all of your companies.” She wants to “socialize” the oil companies LMAO.

Now she wants to impeach candidate Trump because her sorry @ss candidate Cankles lost the election. Impeachment based on what, Maxine?!? What are the charges, Maxine?

She may not be the stupidest person in congress but I’d say she’s definitely in the top five.

The only reason I can conceive that Mad Max has crawled out of her coffin is that she wants to go public as often as possible in order to create a racial carapace to cover her stepped up money making scams during the years she expects to come under ethics scrutiny. She copped a walk thanks to fellow vampire Zoe Lofgren, but doesn’t expect the same kind of congressional cover now that the Hope-a-Dope Party has imploded.
