We all know the Democratic Party has become increasingly an anti-American party that sees our country as the source of most of the evil in the world.
So while not surprising it’s still a bit shocking to see a Democrat member of Congress give aid and comfort to our enemies and take their side in any dispute.

Senior Democratic Party leader Rep. Maxine Waters just took the side of the Iranians in the dispute over the drone shoot down and basically echoed the propaganda of the mullahs.
In a tweet Waters wrote “Trump, you get no credit for so-called stopping the strike against Iran. Why was the unmanned drone in Iran’s airspace? Why the surveillance? Don’t provoke and then pretend innocence.”

So according to Maxine Waters it’s Trump’s fault the Iranians shot down one of our drones because he “provoked” them. Ignore the fact the Iranian regime has basically been at war with the USA since 1979.
As you might expect Waters comments generated some heated responses, like this one from Republican Rep. Dan Crenshaw.
“This is a shocking comment from a House Committee Chairwoman. She is literally repeating the lies of the Iranian regime. What a disgrace. Maxine Waters’ hate for Trump runs so deep that she is willing to take Iran’s side over the word of our military.”

Rep. Crenshaw is 100% right. Maxine Waters comments on Iran are shocking and she should be ashamed of herself. But sadly, she has no sense of shame whatsoever.
