NAACP Official Pulls a Maxine Waters
Quote:Hilary Shelton, director of the D.C. bureau of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), encouraged people to make the lives of senators who support the president “as uncomfortable as you can possibly make it.”

During a panel discussion in New Orleans, Shelton recommended that the audience goes after Democratic senators who aren't standing up to President Donald Trump and “jack 'em up.” He then called for making the lives of Republican senators “uncomfortable.”





"Everybody should claim their two senators whether you voted for them or not. They're making a ton of cash being where they are, and they'll make a whole lot more money when they leave. Sometimes we may need to expedite them leaving so they can make that big money. But keep in mind that it is only the Senate that is making decisions on these judicial [nominations]. We have some [Democrats] that are quite frankly very nervous going at their reelection. We also know that the states they're going to reelection statewide are states that delivered things for Trump. And the fear is that Trump will be able to gin them up. But let them know that Trump may be able to gin them up, but you can jack 'em up if they don't do the right thing on these issues.


[...]


Even if it is someone that you don't believe that will — for instance, sometimes our people walk away from Republicans because their thought is that Republicans are not going to support us anyway. That doesn't mean you don't need to make their life just as uncomfortable as you can possibly make it."

These are miserable people!!! We know this kind of rhetoric has lead to extreme violence against elected officials and yet democrats and the media remain silent. Truly disgusting.
