Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters was blasted on social media after telling former President Trump to 'shut your mouth' after he was convicted in criminal court on Thursday.
Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., received backlash on social media in response to her reaction to the criminal conviction of former President Trump in a post where she mocked the former president. 'Trump shut your mouth!' Waters posted on X following Trump's conviction.
Fox News Digital reached out to Waters' office for comment but did not receive a response. Waters was widely criticized for what many labeled a call to violence in 2018 when she encouraged her supporters, '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.' Waters denied that she had promoted violence.
Trump was found guilty on all 34 counts of falsifying business records in the first degree on Thursday. Each count carries a maximum prison sentence of four years. In total, Trump faces a maximum sentence of 136 years. Moments after the verdict was delivered by the jury, the former president spoke to reporters in the hallway outside the courtroom. 'This was a disgrace. This was a rigged trial by a conflicted judge who was corrupt, as a rigged trial and disgrace.
