Maxine Waters warns Trump 'capable of starting a civil war'
'This president intends to exercise power long after he is out of office,' she argued
By Sam Dorman | Fox News
Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., urged the House of Representatives to impeach President Trump on Wednesday, arguing that he was "the worst president in the history of the United States."
During a floor speech, Waters warned that last week's riots were a "power grab" by Trump that "will not stop." She said: "This president intends to exercise power long after he is out of office ... he is capable of starting a civil war."
After the riots at the Capitol, Trump offered remarks in which he committed to a peaceful transition of power.
Waters' comments added to a long list of scathing criticisms Trump faced as the Democratic-led House seemed poised to impeach him once more with just days left in his term. The FBI has warned that armed protests were being planned for all 50 state capitols in the lead-up to President-elect Biden's inauguration.

No schlitz! Exactly right!! BLM/Antifa are allowed and in fact encouraged to riot with no repercussions and this has been going on for months.
Sorry folks, but Trump should have put his thumbs down on them when he had the chance. I know most don't agree with me on that, but IMHO him backing down only escalated their movement.

Yep. The side that 'starts it' provides the casus belli. That has been done, in spades.
Those opposed to those actions have a choice to seek a less violent and mutually destructive redress of grievances, or go whole hog and engage in hostilities. The latter simply has not been done by those who oppose the Communists and their totalitarian dreams...not yet, anyway. Students of History know how destructive the last civil war was, and realize that any such open conflict here would invite the participation of foreign interests who seek to do some controlling and looting here of their own. Such steps would have to be considered very carefully because of the likely outcome.

Yes, she started 'impeach foty fie.' before his inauguration in 2017! Then her famous' 'get in their faces", if they were republicans or Trump Supporters. THESE PEOPLE ARE TRULY INSANE AND EVIL.

How or why this woman believes she has any credibility is beyond me.
I suppose she has nothing to fear when it comes to the ballot box because, despite the fact that she represents a poor, crime ridden district, they vote to send her back to DC each election
