Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) this week called for Republicans to acknowledge that President Trump is "unstable."
During an interview on MSNBC, Waters went after members of Congress who she says are watching "the damage" Trump is doing in the country and not speaking up.
"To watch him just guide us into a possible war and not speak up because they're concerned about their reelection is not responsible," she said during the interview.
"I believe it is time for Republicans, especially, to walk over to the White House and tell him, 'enough is enough.'"
Waters, a vocal Trump critic, said she continues to believe that lawmakers should pursue impeachment.
"Republicans should step up to the plate and confront the fact that this president appears to be unstable, that he appears to be taking us into war, that he has openly obstructed justice in front of our face," Waters said.
"I believe that there really has been collusion [with the Russians], and I do think that special counsel Mueller is going to connect those dots. But I think there's enough now that we all know and we all see and we all understand that we should be moving on impeachment."
The California Democrat also said Trump has been advised by Republicans and Democrats that he should not be "undoing the Iran deal."
"For him, to have America look as if it wants to undo the deal ... He basically is saying he knows better than anybody," she said.
"But of course, during the campaign, he said he knows more than the generals. He really believes that, and it's dangerous."
Trump declared on Friday that the Iran nuclear deal is no longer in the national security interest of the United States.
Trump said Iran had "committed multiple violations of the agreement" and accused Tehran of "not living up to the spirit of the deal," but stopped short of withdrawing from the Obama-era pact.
“I am announcing today that we cannot and will not make this certification,” Trump said during a speech at the White House.
“We will not continue down a path whose predictable conclusion is more violence, more terror and the very real threat of Iran’s nuclear breakout," he added.
