Maria Chappelle-Nadal’s Facebook comment was so egregious that even ABC News reported on the story.
The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports:
Missouri state Sen. Maria Chappelle-Nadal, D-University City, posted a comment in a Facebook conversation Thursday morning saying she hoped President Donald Trump will be assassinated.
The comment was removed but Chappelle-Nadal confirmed to the Post-Dispatch that she had written it in response to another commenter before deleting it.
Then on Thursday Chappelle-Nadal tweeted out a Holocaust threat to Jewish Missouri Governor Eric Greitens.
On Friday Missouri Lt. Governor Mike Parsons told Senator Chappelle-Nadal to step down or be removed from office.
Now this…
Maria Chappelle-Nadal finally issued a tearful apology on Sunday in a Facebook interview that streamed live.
FOX News reported:
Amid calls for her resignation, a Democratic state senator in Missouri on Sunday said she made a mistake for posting on Facebook Thursday that she hopes President Donald Trump is assassinated.
State Sen. Maria Chappelle-Nadal — who has said she isn’t resigning over the post — apologized at a press conference streamed live on the Facebook page of the Clayton Times, a St. Louis County newspaper.
“President Trump, I apologize to you and your family,” Chappelle-Nadal said at the Wellspring Church in Ferguson, Missouri. “I also apologize to all the people in Missouri. And I also apologize to my colleagues in the Missouri legislature for the mistake that I made.”

Fake apology...
No. No tears.
She should go.
If they won’t get rid of her voters need to make their voices heard.
How did she get elected in the first place?
5 seconds of fame ... you blew that but the local McDonalds is hiring
“Amid calls for her resignation, a Democratic state senator in Missouri on Sunday said she made a mistake for posting on Facebook Thursday that she hopes President Donald Trump is assassinated.”
It’s not a mistake honey, that’s how you really feel. The problem is that it’s a criminal comment and you need to be removed from your seat.
MO State Senate vote her out.
Expulsion.
The apology period should be after she is convicted and sentenced. Anything uttered from her face is just that, meaningless utterings.
Seppuku.
Even a RINO would of resigned by now. Sorry no sale “Senator”.
LOCK HER UP!
On Friday Missouri Lt. Governor Mike Parsons told Senator Chappelle-Nadal to step down or be removed from office

Guess this is what made her work up a few tears...LOL!
Is it wrong to hope the Lt Governor can follow up with removing her from office?
Mistake my a$$. She got righteously nailed and to move to dismiss her was gathering momentum. DNC told her to recant ASAP or there would be no more money and she would be left to hang in the wind.
Revealed her self with the tweet and her bold refusal. Mouthing off with the way she truly feels.
“You so crazy!”
A highly-privileged member of a government-certified victim group. (or 3). Needs to resign, just like a White male would have been forced to do if he had made an innocent comment about bammy.
Apology accepted. Now do the honorable thing and resign.
This nasty broad realized she’d lose her $174,000 salary. If it were up to me, I’d fire her ass and throw her in jail for national security reasons. I would make her life miserable.
She knows her job is going to be GONE soon!!
If she apologized the 1st time maybe I'll accept it but she was arrogant thinking nothing would happen to her!
Trump should invite her to lunch
Really
LOL definitely a fake apology, but the secret service must have read her the riot act.
