President Donald Trump provided some fireworks Tuesday morning even before Independence Day celebrations light up skies across America, calling Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters crazy and accusing her of corruption.
He also warned of an infestation of MS-13 gang members from points south of the United States, contending again that Democrats do not appreciate the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency that some of them want to abolish or significantly overhaul amid the migrant family separation crisis.
The president used a morning tweet to say Crazy Maxine Waters, said by some to be one of the most corrupt people in politics, is rapidly becoming, together with Nancy Pelosi, the FACE of the Democrat Party.
Trump has sought to tie all Democratic incumbents and candidates to Waters ahead of Novembers congressional elections after she told supporters to harass White House and administration officials they encounter in public. That came after Trumps top spokeswoman, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, and her family were asked to leave a Northern Virginia restaurant because she works for the often-bombastic Trump.

He's talking to his racist base. Everyone else is not an American, and he doesn't require their attention.

(11,882 posts)He goes after foes by digging up anything they can , maybe any way they can, to use against them to try and criminalize them with it. He has done this over and over again against anyone who opposes him. He starts with suggestions, then starts in with anything they can dig up, and claim falsely if they can't find anything, like he's done against Hillary, and still trying to do. Every one's a liar except him in his reality.

(82,849 posts)Once again, Needy Amin practices his projection skills. Who are these "some" who say that Maxine Waters is one of the most corrupt people in politics? Will anyone in the popular media have the guts to ask Trump about his casual character assassination?

(3,433 posts)...no more war of words with this guy, responding to his tweets--just feeding the monster! No need to explain, provide facts..orvgive him advance notice...just file a complaint, then he can provide proof [which he doesn't have since he'a lying or he can stfu! Frankly, he seems to be harassing, stalking, inciting violence against Rep. Waters and she should file wth FBI as well. Civil protest against injustice is not only our right...it's our duty!
Ps Schumer is wrong--it's un-American not to protest, speak out against injustice!
