And if you see anybody from that Cabinet in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you create a crowd. And you push back on them. And you tell them they’re not welcome anymore, anywhere. We’ve got to get the children connected to their parents.—Congresswoman Maxine Waters;I will go and take Trump out tonight!—Congresswoman Maxine Waters;People Will Do What They Do.—Speaker Nancy Pelosi responding to violent mobs in America;There needs to be unrest in the streets for as long as there is unrest in our lives.—Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley;Show me where it says that protests are supposed to be polite and peaceful.—Chris Cuomo;If we were in high school I’d take him behind the gym and beat the hell out of him.—President Joe Biden;They’re still going to have to go out and put a bullet in Donald Trump.
