Congresswoman Maxine Waters went on a six-tweet tirade Sunday, politicizing the tragic shooting in El Paso to attack President Trump as a raging racist who encourages murder.

Waters started her Twitter rant with a bizarre shout-out to Chicago, where some of the most strict gun control laws in the country have failed miserably at stopping gun violence. Over the weekend, seven people were left dead and another 52 injured in shootouts in the Windy City, WLS reports.

“Once again, the shootings in Chicago have caused more death and more pain. It’s passed (sic) time for a well organized strategy by law enforcement, backed by the community, to stop these ongoing senseless murders in Chicago,” Waters wrote.

She then shifted to Trump, who she claims is a “coward” for failing to stop mass murderers, and used the killings to call for more gun control – the same approach that’s failing both Chicago and her Los Angeles district.

The Homicide Report identifies 564 people who were killed in Los Angeles County in the past 12 months alone. In Chicago, that figure eclipsed 400 for the year, several dozen fewer than at the same time 2018, the Chicago Tribune reports.

“Trump, you called the El Paso shooting an act of cowardice. Trump, you’re the coward,” Waters posted. “You could use the bully pulpit to stop these horrific mass shootings, but you continue racist attacks on Americans. We can’t let Senate off the hook. Pass the gun bill! Congress, we can do more!”

Waters conflated Trump’s comments about criminals crossing the U.S.-Mexico border with illegal immigrants in general, then attempted to link the president’s accurate assessment of Baltimore as “rat infested” and some African nations as “shitholes” to the alleged racist motivations of the El Paso shooter.

“Don’t forget, before 2018 midterms, Trump was screaming about immigrants crossing the border to invade the US! He calls them rapists & gang members. He demonizes Muslims, describes cities with large black populations as ‘rat infested,’ and called African nations ‘shitholes,’” Waters wrote.

“The El Paso white nationalist terrorist attacked a community w/ a large Mexican & immigrant population. The El Paso terrorist said in his manifesto Hispanics ‘race mix’ & that is another reason to ‘send them back.’ Did his words, ‘Send them back,’ sound familiar to anyone?”

Waters was obviously referencing Trump’s online attacks aimed at four Socialist congresswomen known as “The Squad” who relentlessly criticize America and Israel. The four “lawmakers of color” liken detention centers for immigrants who cross illegally to Nazi “concentration camps” – a deliberate attempt to stoke hate by leveraging the horrific murder of millions in Europe during World War II.

Regardless, Waters contends Trump is to blame for “stoking hatred, racism, & white nationalism” with his words, and she’s using that narrative to call for the government to tighten its grip on gun owners.

“Enough is enough. America, when are you going to demand action on guns? Another senseless mass killing by a young white nationalist,” Waters wrote. “Trump, you cannot escape accepting blame for these escalating killings in our country that are motivated by your race baiting!”

“There are no words, thoughts, or prayers that can quell the unspeakable horror that has befallen the El Paso community. Shame on #Moscowmitch for taking no action on Dem gun violence prevention bill! Shame on Trump for stoking hatred, racism, & white nationalism. It must end!”

Trump explicitly condemned “racism, bigotry and white supremacy” after the deadly weekend, but offered a much more comprehensive look at the problem that his liberal critics, who remained focused on the equipment used in the crimes.

“Mental illness and hatred pulls the trigger, not the gun,” Trump said. “The shooter in El Paso posted a manifesto online consumed by racist hate. In one voice, our nation must condemn racism, bigotry and white supremacy. These sinister ideologies must be defeated. Hate has no place in America.”

The El Paso shooter posted a manifesto on 8chan before the massacre that both explained his motivation and predicted the reaction from the media and others like Waters who are now leveraging the situation for their political gain.

“The media will probably call me a white supremacist anyway and blame Trump’s rhetoric,” the shooter wrote, according to Buzzfeed. “The media is infamous for fake news.”
