Liberal California Congresswoman Maxine Waters went on a shouting rampage against Trump aides and supporters during a toy drive on Capitol Hill on Saturday – the morning after White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders was kicked out of a Virgina resturant.
“History will record while he tried to step on all of us, we kicked him in his rear and step on him,” she yelled.
“If you think we’re rallying now, you ain’t seen nothin’ yet,” she warned.
“Already, you have members of your Cabinet that are being booed out of restaurants,” she continued as the crowd erupted, “who have protesters taking up at their house, who say, ‘No peace, no sleep. No peace, no sleep,’” she continued.
“And so, let’s stay the course. Let’s make sure we show up wherever we have to show up and if you see anybody from that Cabinet in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you create a crowd and you push back on them, and you tell them they’re not welcome anymore, anywhere,” she screamed.
She later told MSNBC that protesters are “going to absolutely harass them.”
This is an elected official in America coming very close to encouraging mob violence. I was incredibly disturbed when Trump incited violence at his rallies. This is also very disturbing. https://t.co/uyUl4KiKbq

Waters’ violent comments drew a strong rebuke from President Donald Trump, who labled her “an extraordinarily low IQ person” and warned “be careful what you wish for Max!”
Congresswoman Maxine Waters, an extraordinarily low IQ person, has become, together with Nancy Pelosi, the Face of the Democrat Party. She has just called for harm to supporters, of which there are many, of the Make America Great Again movement. Be careful what you wish for Max!

Other Republican lawmakers spoke out amid fears that the protests might escalate. A spokesman for House Majority Whip Steve Scalise – who was injured in a shooting at a congressional baseball practice by a Bernie Sanders supporter just over a year ago – warned about the dangers of overheated rhetoric and protests.
“Whip Scalise knows firsthand the dangerous consequences that can result from making political differences personal and vitriolic,” spokeswoman Lauren Fine said in a statement. “We are lucky to live in a country where we have the right to freely debate our differences civilly. Harassment is never an acceptable method of disagreement.”
Trump haters still haven’t realized how much they help him with their condescension of those who either voted for him or don’t share their hatred of him. And how much they help him with their irrational hostility towards those who work for him.

Earlier last week, Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen had to cut short a working dinner at a Mexican restaurant in Washington after protesters shouted, “Shame!” until she left.
Stephen Miller, the controversial White House adviser, was also accosted last week when he tried to dine at an upscale Mexican eatery in Washington.
“Hey look guys, whoever thought we’d be in a restaurant with a real-life fascist begging [for] money for new cages?” one customer allegedly yelled upon seeing Miller, before the Trump staffer scurried away, according to the New York Post.
On Saturday, Florida Attorney General – and ardent Trump supporter – Pam Bondi was confronted by a group of protesters outside the screening of a documentary about Mister Rogers in Tampa. A video of the confrontation shows the Florida AG leaving the theater as several people yell at her, with one woman seen shouting at her about Bondi’s recent actions on health care policy and her stance on immigration.

And she is believable regarding what trump said to a soldier’s wife
I hardly think so
@YWN Trump said be careful what u wish for. Your headline (just says “be careful”) makes it sound like Trump initiated this. Please stop doing this.
Coffee addict:
I think you mean Frederica Wilson. Both cut from the same cloth though.
Ha that is an incredibly low IQ thing to say
Finally a article from ywn. Much better than ap
Maxine, why encourage people to act like trump supporters?
Now Republicans and Trump supporters can experience firsthand what is like to be a Jew in “old” Europe.
How does Dopey Donnie know Congresswoman Waters’ IQ? Her public statements are no stupider than his.
