VIDEO: Maxine Waters short circuits during live TV interview
JULY 14, 2017
BY OLAF EKBERG
Liberal rock star Maxine Waters suffered an awkward moment during a live interview on Friday when she appeared to short circuit mid-sentence.

Waters was speaking to MSNBC’s Katy Tur when she had a verbal malfunction.



Waters was once again slamming President Trump and spinning her Russia conspiracy theories when she questioned the patriotism of Trump supporters and said, “I just don’t understand why they don’t call it like it is and recognize that evidence is pouring in and it’s growing, or what— is matt— what, what is wrong with them, I just don’t quite understand,” she struggled to say.

In April, the 78-year-old congresswoman suffered a brain freeze during another interview.

Speaking with Yahoo News, Waters was talking about China’s role in containing North Korea, and momentarily appeared confused about what she was discussing.

“Those in China have a great trading relationship, they sell an awful lot of stuff to North Korea,” she said.


“And so (the Chinese) president is warning Trump, ‘okay, don’t start talking about preemptive strikes. We want a diplomatic solution,'” Waters said, speculating about China’s conversations with Trump.

The 78-year-old continued, “‘We do not want war in, uh, uh, uh, North Korea — North, uh, um, um, Korea at all,'” struggling to complete her thought.
And?

A 78 year old woman is having some problems talking? And were making fun of her for it? Awesome.
i think that if politicians start talking oddly and not making sense we should remove them from office. it's too bad that this law does not exist for the house of reps, so maxine waters gets to stay. but the 25th amendment was made in case the president started saying odd things that made no sense.

Look, having nuclear—my uncle was a great professor and scientist and engineer, Dr. John Trump at MIT; good genes, very good genes,
OK, very smart, the Wharton School of Finance, very good, very smart
—you know, if you're a conservative Republican, if I were a liberal, if,
like, OK, if I ran as a liberal Democrat, they would say I'm one of the
smartest people anywhere in the world—it's true!—but when you're a
conservative Republican they try—oh, do they do a number—that's
why I always start off: Went to Wharton, was a good student, went
there, went there, did this, built a fortune—you know I have to give my
like credentials all the time, because we're a little disadvantaged—but
you look at the nuclear deal, the thing that really bothers me—it would
have been so easy, and it's not as important as these lives are (nuclear
is powerful; my uncle explained that to me many, many years ago, the
power and that was 35 years ago; he would explain the power of
what's going to happen and he was right—who would have thought?),
but when you look at what's going on with the four prisoners—now it
used to be three, now it's four—but when it was three and even now, I
would have said it's all in the messenger; fellas, and it is fellas because,
you know, they don't, they haven't figured that the women are smarter
right now than the men, so, you know, it's gonna take them about
another 150 years—but the Persians are great negotiators, the Iranians are great negotiators, so, and they, they just killed, they just killed us.

Is that true for Buddhism? I thought that when you did wrong in that ideology, you wear it into the next life and maybe if you account for past sins you can rise above it. I don't know much about that stuff, I wasted my time studying math and science.
Buddhism isn't so much a "religion" as it is a system for living without attachment to physical things and trying to do your best for the people and nature around you.

We could learn alot from the Buddha's teachings, I wouldn't say that so much for the typical Abrahamic religions.

Christ was a Buddhist monk called Issa. It wasn't until Constantine converted to Christianity and it became a state religion that all the really weird Anti-women shit started happening. The council of Nicea really helped to pervert Christs true message.

Sure, bro.
Great rebuttal. Refusal to learn new things is not a desirable trait, friend. The information is there, has been a favored theory among theologians for years, and has since been proven, and all you can say is "Sure, bro." Yup, ya got me. Do yourself a favor and put in even half the effort you put in shitting on leftists to research "Ibrahimic" religions before posting about them. Especially when it comes to Christianity, the early church, and Constantine's take over.

Pretty sure Jesus was Jewish...

Whatever you want to believe is up to you.

re: xcor; Well that was interesting.

There are plenty of metaphysical aspects of Buddhism that I would call religious belief. Reincarnation is one of the more extravagant beliefs (extravagant to an atheist, that is). What differentiates Buddhism's metaphysical beliefs from religion? Do Buddhists pick and choose their beliefs or is there a mainstream Buddhism and then cafeteria types?

Curious and not mocking.
