Maxine Waters has emerged as the House leader of the “Resist Trump” movement after previously warning him to “get ready for impeachment<\/a>” and referring to his administration as “a bunch of scumbags<\/a>.”<\/p>\n Now, at a gala hosted by EMILY\u2019s list, a PAC that aims to elect female Democrats who support abortion rights, Waters decided to ramp things up a bit by referring to Trump as a “disgusting, poor excuse of a man” <\/strong>and saying that she’s putting her “career on the line”<\/strong> to resist his presidency.<\/p>\n “There are many who do not like what I\u2019m doing. I’m putting my career on the line.<\/strong>\u00a0 But I’ve decided that no matter those who do dislike what I’m doing, no matter those who disagree with me, I feel absolutely certain that this country deserves better than Donald Trump.”<\/p>\n “We will not allow ourselves to be shut up, or shut down by anyone.\u00a0 Especially this disgusting, poor excuse of a man who is now the President of the United States.”<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n Pardon our cynicism, Ms. Waters, but coming from a California district that supported Hillary by a 72% to 22% margin, we hardly believe that your “resist Trump” initiative is in anyway ‘threatening’ to your career.<\/strong>\u00a0 A more appropriate adjective might be “self-serving.”<\/p>\n\n
