Sanders told reporters that the liberal firebrand's call for public torment of her political opponents is 'unacceptable'
White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders heaped a second helping of scorn Monday on Democratic congresswopman Maxine Waters, telling reporters at that the liberal firebrand's open call for harrassment of Trump supporters is 'unacceptable.' The president himself slammed Waters as 'an extraordinarily low IQ person' after she made a public rallying cry for people to hound administration officials they see in public. 'This weekend,' Sanders said Monday, 'a member of Congress called for people to "push back" and make clear to those serving their country in this administration that they are not welcome anywhere, anytime, for anything.' Waters was reacting to a series of incidents sparked by a rural Virginia restaurateur's decision to kick her and her husband out because she worked for the Trump administration. 'We are allowed to disagree, but we should be able to do so freely and without fear of harm,' Sanders said. 'And this goes for all people regardless of politics.'

Rep. Maxine Waters, a Democrat from California, is a vocal Trump critic and said Trump administration officials should not be able to go anywhere without being publicly harassed
Last week protesters from Democratic Socialists of America forced Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen to leave a Mexican restaurant in Washington, D.C., complaining loudly about the White House's immigration policies. And protesters accosted Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi, a prominent Trump supporter, outside a film screening Friday night. The movie was 'Won't You Be My Neighbor,' a documentary about the mild-mannered children's TV pioneer Fred Rogers Waters heaped fuel on the fire Saturday, and the president blasted her back on Twitter. 'Congresswoman Maxine Waters, an extraordinarily low IQ person, has become, together with Nancy Pelosi, the Face of the Democrat Party. She has just called for harm to supporters, of which there are many, of the Make America Great Again movement. Be careful what you wish for Max! ,' Trump tweeted Monday. It is unclear what the president meant by the implicit threat. The never-shy lawmaker, a California Democrat who is a vocal Trump critic, made her war cry at a public rally in Los Angeles outside a federal building. She was condemning the Trump administration policy on immigration – particularly the separation of illegal immigrant children from their families – and called on him to be impeached.
