Rep. Maxine Waters tore into President Trump in a late-night tweetstorm Monday, calling him the “most prolific, consistent, good for nothing liar” the country has ever seen.
Mrs. Waters, a California Democrat who has repeatedly called for Mr. Trump’s impeachment, first took aim at the president’s meeting last week with North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un in Hanoi, which ended without an agreement on denuclearization.
“Lying Trump came away from fake summit with terrorist & killer Kim Jong-un w/ nothing because Kim never intended to offer anything. Don the con man got conned! Hey number 45, are you still in love w/ Kim?” Mrs. Waters wrote. “Lying Trump said he believes killer Kim Jong-un, that he didn’t know what happened to #ottowarmbier. Now he wants to flip the script. No one can believe this unworthy president. He is the most prolific, consistent, good for nothing liar this country has ever experienced.”
Mrs. Waters then accused Mr. Trump of “siding” with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, who reportedly ordered the killing of Saudi writer Jamal Khashoggi inside the Saudi Consulate in Turkey last year.
“The killing with the chainsaw & dismemberment of #JamalKhashoggi by the Saudis is the most gruesome & heartless act imaginable!” Mrs. Waters wrote. “Now we learned his body parts were burned in a giant oven! Trump, God will never forgive you for siding w/ MBS on this murder.”
Mrs. Waters continued her attacks against the president by turning her sights onto the Robert Mueller investigation, claiming that “impeachment is the only answer.”
“Obstruction of justice reality show: Firing Comey, sending coded messages to Manafort & others that he has the power to pardon; lying abt Trump Tower meeting; threatening Cohen’s in-laws; attempting to destroy Mueller. What more do we need to know? Impeachment is the only answer,” the congresswoman wrote.
“Lying Trump, so you said you did nothing to force security clearance for Kushner, huh? Who do you think will believe that lie? Must give you credit. You are the boldest, most daring liar I’ve ever heard of. A pox on all your houses,” she continued. “Trump, you have screamed no collusion and no obstruction of justice so many times, trying to influence others, that I think you really believe your own lies. Just stop it. No honesty. No truth. No trust. No patriotism.”
Mrs. Waters ended her diatribe by calling on members of Congress to “demonstrate your patriotism” by supporting impeachment.
