Representative Maxine Waters (D-CA) warned on MSNBC’s “The Sunday Show with Jonathan Capehart” that former President Donald Trump would attempt “to take over legislatures, little towns and cities.”
Therefore, she said he must be convicted in his impeachment trial to “take away his power.”
Waters said, “I do believe he sent all of these domestic terrorists to the Capitol to take over the Capitol, and that includes not only the Proud Boys but the Oath Keepers, the QAnon, and white supremacists. These people have been aligned with him. One of the things I hope that will be looked at as we take this impeachment to the Senate is the fact that in his campaign for re-election, he was paying the very organizers of the insurrection that took place. The names are right there. The amount of money that he paid to them, it is shown in the last report. More of it is going to show up in the next report that they have to do.”
She continued, “I think it is very clear. We cannot afford to allow this president to leave here without being impeached and, you know, absolutely convicted. We cannot allow him to leave and have all of the resources of the taxpayers to have not only money to hire staff, but to hire security, and money to organize with, because he will continue. He now knows, he has a population, he’s going to expand that. He will be attempting to take over legislatures, little towns and cities and he doesn’t give a darn about the Constitution and so our democracy is at stake. We must convict him, and we must take away his power.”

Demoncrat projection again.
They sure hate competition, don’t they?
So basically what we all thought impeachment is because they fear this guy more then any politician in recent memory
the rabid demoncrats should be forced to sign
under pains and penalties of perjury their statements.
instead, they are rewarded -like the msm, and
the preening GOP- to lie.
So she is afraid of anyone that can create an opposition to the one party state?
Mad Maxine needs more medication.
Can Mad Max and Mittens really be that incredibly stupid? It sure appears so. I wonder when it will dawn on them that creating a martyr is the logical outcome of this Impeachment sham.
Gee, Maxipad, I hope so.
In other words, we have to convict the opposition because they oppose us politically and they might win.
So Maxine confirms she hates Democracy.
As Socialists have been doing to school boards and city councils and District Attorney chairs and judicial seats?
“cannot allow him to leave and have all of the resources of the taxpayers”
Taxpayers? That’s doesn’t include you Mad Maxine.
Trump, that old fish-eyed fool.....
How is this going to play out? Trying to convict a former President? Not sure this is going to work out well for you, Maxine.
Despotism (Encyclopedia Britannica film, circa 1946)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TaWSqboZr1w
“A community is low on a ‘Respect’ scale if common courtesy is withheld from large groups of people on account of their political attitudes.”
“...in a downright despotism opposition is dangerous whether the despotism is official or whether it is unofficial...”
“A community rates low on the ‘Information’ scale when the press, radio, and other channels of communication are controlled by only a few people and when citizens have to accept what they are told.”
“See how a community trains its teachers”
“...these students are being taught to accept uncritically whatever they are told. Questions are not encouraged.”
“And if books and newspapers and the radio [and facebook and youtube and...] are officially controlled the people will read and accept exactly what the few in control want them to. Government censorship is one form of control. The newspaper that breaks the government censorship rule can be suspended. It is also possible for newspapers and other lines of communication to be controlled by private interests...”
Democracy (Encyclopedia Britannica film, circa 1946)

“The newspapers of a real democracy meet these tests...”
Newspaper checks.
1. Balance of coverage
2. Disclosure of source
3. Competence of staff
You’d think that Trump was Mussolini, Satan, J R Ewing, Hitler and Yankee manager Billy Martin all tied up into one, based on what this gal says.
Like the Democrats did when they defied Federal law on immigration and declared themselves sanctuaries for crime.
Do you feel that sometimes villages and towns get rid of their idiots by sending them to Washington. It certainly looks that way doesn’t it?
insurrection is now defined as engaging in politics
