I think Rep. Maxine Waters is in the final stages of Trump Derangement Syndrome. That’s the only explanation for this display of sheer moonbattery.
The other day, Waters was wailing on the House floor about how much she hates everything MAGA. It all started after Rep. Mike Kelly told her that we needed to focus on what unites us, and the cheese slid right off her crackers.
“We are trying to make sure we are making America great every day in every way and the best way to do that is to stop stalking about discrimination and start talking about the nation,” Kelly said. “We’re coming together as a people, in spite of what you say.”
He’s right, but technically, remarks are supposed to be made toward committee chairman Tom McClintock. Waters decided to ignore that and went OFF and reminded everyone that she’s a huge victim.
“Mr. Kelly, please do not leave. Because I want you to know that I am more offended as an African American woman than you will ever be. And this business about making America great again, it is your president that’s dividing this country,” Waters said.
Translation: RACIST!
“And don’t talk to me about the fact that we don’t understand … that’s the attitude that’s been given toward women time and time again,” she continued.
Translation: SEXIST!
It’s all she has at this point.
It only went downhill from there.
Kelly attempted to chime in, but Waters refused to yield for a response. McClintock reminded Waters to direct her remarks to him, and she ignored the request a second time.
“I respect the chair, but don’t stop me in the middle when you didn’t stop him in the middle, and so I shall continue,” Waters said, turning back to Kelly. “Don’t you dare talk to me like that and think that somehow women don’t understand what goes on on the floor of automobile dealers.”
McClintock again requested that Waters respect the rules, which sent the 79-year-old politician into a tirade about Trump.
“I don’t appreciate that you did not interrupt him when he was making those outrageous remarks about him knowing more about discrimination than I know about discrimination,” Waters shouted. “I resent that and I resent the remark about making America great again.
“He’s down here making a speech for this dishonorable president of the United States of America. Having said that, I reserve the balance of my time. And no, I do not yield, not one second to you,” she yelled at Kelly.
She added an echo for dramatic effect.
“Not one second,” she shouted. “Not one second to you.”

The left is desperately trying to turn this into a #ShePersisted type of rallying cry, but let’s face it. Auntie Maxine just looks insane.
