I don't know exactly what she said but I have an idea - it was stupid. Dem. leadership is calling her out for it. |

She's not President.
Sorry but I think there might be a higher standard.
Just like I think we should have a higher standard to be one of a hundred Senators than one of 435 representatives all representing the 325 million people who live in the USA. |

Neither was Donald Trump in the video. Those were before He was elected.
So are you saying that Maxine Waters gets a pass because she's not president? Wouldn't that mean that trump should get the same pass because he wasn't President at that time? I mean Waters is a Congresswoman saying those things, Trump was just a civilian.
Personally, i agree that they should ALL be held to a higher standard. And we have ourselves to blame because we attack the good and leave ourselves the crap to pick through. |

Her remark wasn't smart but it doesn't even register on the Trump scale. |

That is right, the vocal left is far out-crappifying the vocal right. If you listed to the radical left, Handmaiden's Tale is right around the corner if we don't die first because of a Travel Ban or Taxes or something or Stormy. |

Wasn't smart? It was beyond stupid, made her sound just like Trump back in the rallies asking people to smack the #^&#^&#^&#^& out of a protester on the other side of the aisle. She should be publicly reprimanded. |
