“That has been a problem with our party. When we’re in power, we’re too nice.” – Maxine Waters (D-CA)
Jacob Soboroff of MSNBC asked Congresswoman Waters if she were asked by Trump to sit down and meet with him would she? Waters replied, “Oh no, I won’t go. I’m not gonna sit down with him, I’m not gonna go. I’m not gonna pretend. I’m not pretending.”
“I don’t trust him, I don’t believe him, I have no intention of sitting down with him, I’m going to fight him every inch of the way and I’m gonna show the American people they too cannot trust him…”
Rep. @MaxineWaters told me she doesn't trust Trump, wouldn't meet at White House. Disagrees w @SenSchumer strategy. https://t.co/qmoLiVyRxz
