Trump 'never will be presidential,' Waters says in damning SOTU rebuttal
ABC News, Feb 1, 2018

"One speech cannot and does not make Donald Trump presidential,” she added. "He's not presidential and he never will be presidential."

Waters cited the president's response to the deadly Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, in August 2017 and his criticism of black NFL players as proof that he is a "dangerous, unprincipled, divisive and shameful racist."

"Trump often works to convince dissatisfied elements in society that all of their problems are caused by people of color," she said. "He stokes racial animosity by referring to black NFL players as sons of b----es and demonizing immigrants from Haiti and Africa."

"Whenever he appears on TV there should be a disclaimer that says 'this may not be acceptable for children,'" Waters added, referring to the president's previous use of vulgar language.

“Whenever he appears on TV there should be a disclaimer that says ‘This may be may not be acceptable for children,'” she said.

Waters recorded a pre-taped response to Trump’s address, which was broadcast on attorney and political commentator Angela Rye’s BET special.
