Anyone who voted for trump has some nerve calling out anyone else wrt offensive language.

Maxine Waters is great. She is a patriot and a truthteller.

Is this an appropriate type of language a U.S. Representative should be using?

Imagine if a republican had said the same thing about Obama's people. It would be headline news for days. There'd be alls for his/her resignation. His/her political career would forever ruined BUT since it was Maxine Waters saying it against Trump, everything is fine.

And where is the mainstream media outrage?

Funny how the left and their media friends are criticizing Trump for his language but stuff like this from them is fine.
Interesting statement from a withered crone with Alzheimer's onset.

Maxine Waters called people "scumbags." Donald Trump said he likes to "Grab women by the *****."

You tell me which is worse. And yes, I'm aware that Trump made his comment in what he thought was total privacy....which IMO makes it even worse.

Since when is "scumbags" some horrific slur?

I'm pretty sure they've all said worse about her.

Why not? You excuse Tramp's reprehensible behavior. How do you justify that?

It was made in private , he already apologized for it , it was like 12 years ago . He also was not an elected official at the time just a private citizen .

If repeating that line from so many years ago is all the left has that's pretty pathetic.

He called Hillary Clinton quite a few names in public during the elections... oh... and his fellow Republican primary candidates. Said some very unpleasant things about them.

Nobody cares because why?

Yup, in 2009, this is exactly how the Republicans in Congress treated Obama during his first month in office - NOT.

Hillary Clinton called half of Trump supporters deplorables. That insulted tens of millions of Americans .
Trump never insulted Hillary voters like that .
