Trump wishes happy birthday to 'leader' of Dems Maxine Waters

BY TAL AXELROD - 08/15/18 11:18 AM EDT

President Trump tweeted a happy birthday on Wednesday “to the leader of the Democrat Party, Maxine Waters!”

The tweet came after a Fox News segment aired showing Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) appearing on MSNBC and saying her birthday wish is for a different president.




Waters has joined the ranks of Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) and Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) as one of Trump’s favorite targets among Democrats.

“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!” the president tweeted in June.

Critics have said the attack on Waters’ IQ is racist.

Waters turns 80 years old today.
