Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) responded to backlash over controversial remarks that she made over the weekend by claiming that Republicans were trying to “seize” on what she said so that they could raise money from the “KKK” and “white supremacists.”
Waters said at a protest in Minnesota over the weekend that they were “looking for a guilty verdict” and if they don’t get what they want then “we cannot go away.” When asked what “protesters” should do if they do not get the verdict that they want, Waters responded that activists have “got to stay on the street,” “get more active,” and “get more confrontational.”
