Democrats don’t seem to understand that their little games diminish the office of the presidency, diminish their own office, diminish the United States … but they most assuredly don’t diminish President Trump.
Yet they continue their quest of embarrassing themselves.
Three more Democrats, each unhinged in their own way, have announced their intention to boycott President Trump’s State of the Union address on January 30th.
Maxine Waters (D-CA), John Lewis (D-GA), and Frederica Wilson (D-FL) have joined Oregon Rep. Earl Blumenauer (D) in skipping out on the address to Congress and the nation.
Waters announced her decision by declaring the President is a “racist” and “an embarrassment for our country.” She may want to take a look in the mirror some time.

Lewis is a world-class hypocrite. He too blasted the President as a racist.
“I think he is a racist,” Lewis said on ABC ‘s “This Week,” adding, “I think this man, this president, is taking us back to another place.”
He says this knowing full well that Trump signed legislation turning the birthplace of Martin Luther King Jr. into a national historic park – a bill sponsored by Lewis.

The nephew of a man who marched with both Lewis and Martin Luther King Jr. hammered the congressman, saying he should “take care of [his] district.”
“Don’t throw hatred at the president,” he said. “Come to the table and let’s work together as Americans.”

Wilson continued the Democrat drumbeat, saying Trump is a ‘racist and a liar.’
“It would be an embarrassment to be seen with him at a forum that under any other president would be an honor to attend,” she said.

Wilson proved to be the true embarrassment earlier this year when she used a sympathy call to a Gold Star widow to intentionally boost her name recognition and become a “rock star.”
These four Democrats are an absolute disgrace to the office they hold and the districts they represent. They should be admonished for their childish behavior by their congressional colleagues.
