Salon Gives 5 Reasons Rep. MAXINE WATERS Should Be President: Here’s 6 Reasons Why That’s the Dumbest Idea Ever

Maybe it’s just sheer desperation. I have no idea why anyone anywhere would, out of the millions of women in this country, push Rep. Maxine Waters for our first female president.

Salon does, however. Apparently Salon has five ideas why she’s “presidential material”.

Scary isn’t even the word.

They have five? Well here are six reasons why if Rep. Waters becomes the first female president, you will know with 100% certainty that we’re officially living in the movie [amazon text=Idiocracy&asin=B0040D4F1S].

1. Maxine Waters apparently doesn’t know geography (or what’s even going on right now)

In talking about how Trump should be impeached a few weeks ago, Waters also said Putin is invading “Korea”.

Huh?

2. Sometimes she accidentally tells the truth…

Back in 2008 during a congressional hearing she snarked at oil company execs: “Guess what this liberal would be all about? This liberal would be about socializing… uh, umm… Would be about, basically, taking over, and the government running all of your companies.”

Sounds great, especially if people as intelligent as she is will be in charge of running it.

3. NO crisis at Fannie Mae

You can tell this woman was living on another planet during the 2008 crisis… the planet where she magically didn’t play a key role in turning a blind eye to the reckless actions of Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae that led to the housing bubble collapse as a senior member of the House Financial Services Committee.

4. The Russians hacked our election to recreate the Soviet Union?

Here’s a question. Why do you think Rep. Waters thinks the Russians hacked our election?

I bet this wasn’t the answer:

“Why do you think [Russians] hacked into our election? Because they have to make sure that Donald Trump got elected so that he could help them with what I think is a huuuuge deal, not only to lift these sanctions, but to take over, y’know, all of these Soviet countries and pull ’em back into the Soviet Union, so that they could have access it to all of these resources. It’s clear to me!”

Good thing that’s clear to her, because it’s not clear to anyone else after 1991.

5. Maxine remembers that time when she was a millennial

Because… that’s even possible.

(And also, hearing her say “stay woke” is physically painful.)

6. And finally… figure this one out:

Is she marching because she wishes she was dead or…?

…yeah.
