Fact checked
Rep. Maxine Waters says Trump and protestors should be ashamed - says businesses should not reopen yet

Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters says President Trump and lockdown protestors should be ashamed of themselves for pressuring governors to reopen their states.

Appearing on Monday night’s broadcast of “Inside the Issues” on Spectrum News 1, Waters declared that she did NOT want businesses to reopen.

“You know our governors are under great stress. The protests that have been organized, the protests trying to intimidate our governors to open up everything are protests where the people participating in that should be ashamed of themselves. They should not be encouraged in any way. They should not be encouraged from the top leadership of this country to go out and do that.”

She continued:

“I know the pressure is on. I know that you’re trying to hold the line. I want you to hold the line. I don’t want to see these establishments opened back up. I want the federal government to join with the cities and the states to support these families in every way that we can. I do want a moratorium on rent evictions. I have a huge bill. I have a $100 billion bill to pay the landlords. We don’t want them to risk their properties, many of them have bought a small number of units, ten units, four units as retirement property. I know that they need to pay their mortgages. I am going to absolutely see to it that they are reimbursed, that they are paid for the moratorium on evictions on their apartments.”

Waters declared:

“So we’re doing everything that we can give support to our constituents, to our citizens, to the people who work every day, who have families to take care of. So if we do that, this will support our states and our governors and not having to open back up. So that you know the small businesses that are in direct contact with people nail shops, beauty shops, barbershops, flower shops, these are people in touch with folks every day, and they’re risking their lives, and we don’t want them opened up. We are very sympathetic to the pressure that is being put on by the president of the United States and organize efforts of these protesters. We want the governors to hold the line. Be as tough as you can be. Be as thoughtful as you can be. Do everything you can to hold the line. I know that Governor Newsom is doing that. And any small steps that he takes, he is doing it with a lot of support. We are with you, governor. Hold the line. ”

  1. We have completely returned to normal life gers No masks nothing And no ones freaking out The whole things a scientifically manufactured evil.

  2. Waters is plainly a mad woman.. mad as in insane. But she plays to her constituency which apparently is so un-grounded in reality to be also largely, insane. She has a sinecure and so does her extended family who are multimillionaires overseeing one of the poorest districts in what used to be wonderful California!

  3. If there was a miss ugly contest who do you think would win? I think this hag would be close, now there is Hillary Clinton, Nasty Pelosi that would and could be in the race, so I am asking everyone to comment on who they think should be in the contest and then pick the winner.
