    I don't like her because I think she is a phony, playing her constituents in order to occupy a position of power and to get rich from corruption. I will say that, in lieu of the fact she was speaking at some kind of event honoring Ali, that her metaphor was not totally inappropriate. Trump constantly gets tarred by his detractors jumping on and misinterpreting every word he says in a manner to make him look bad and I think that is unfair to both.

    I thought they were going out on a date!..her treat to boot!!!

    As far as a threat?: (using billy bobs logic), depends upon what the connotation of "Take"is...politically?, beating him to death?, beating him the punch? Competing against him? or taking him to a movie?

    And yet she's the one complaining about being racially targeted. If you're not willing to deal with the heat, get out of the kitchen - especially when you're the one cooking up the rhetoric!

    Notice please, the difference between how the left reacts to any thing said about Obama even in cases where there is no negative content, to anything that Trump says where it is obvious to everyone who understands the English language that no negativity was intended. Trumps words and phrases are twisted until their meanings are the opposite of their intent, which not only turns truth into a lie, but distorts the language to the point where it might as well be pig latin.

    Maxine waters ought to just shutup. She is a ghetto black who makes her whole race look like idiots. Thats about all I have to say about her.

    It seems like law enforcement should investigate if she's conspired to threaten him. I don't think that's extreme since she's a powerful person. Maybe she would like the publicity and would act simultaneously tough and persecuted, in which case she and President Trump are of a kind.

      I think it is inappropriate for members of congress
      To speak of commiting violence against a sitting president and incite crowds.

        "and incite crowds."
        It could incite crowds or even one individual. It could also imply that her connections in law enforcement or possibly the underworld might be a threat, more so than if it were someone not in a powerful position. I also wonder if there are ethics rules, similar to those for lawyers where members of Congress are held to a higher standard. Borderline threatening remarks that would be legal for a citizen could cause an attorney to be disbarred.
