Maxine Waters Accuses Trump of Pushing Toward Civil Conflict

The congresswoman warns that recent policies and rhetoric from Trump are aimed at provoking violence and destabilizing the nation.

  • Rep. Maxine Waters has accused President Donald Trump of deliberately fostering conditions that could lead to a civil war.
  • Waters cited Trump's executive orders, mass firings of federal workers, and the empowerment of Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency as part of a broader strategy to incite unrest.
  • She referenced past statements by Trump, including his allusions to potential violence if he were not reelected, as evidence of his intent to provoke confrontation.
  • Waters emphasized the need for nonviolent resistance, invoking the teachings of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and calling for organized, peaceful protests against Trump's policies.
  • Other Congressional Black Caucus members expressed concern over the impact of Trump’s policies on vulnerable communities but clarified that Waters’ remarks reflected her personal views, not the entire Democratic Party.
