Gotta love Maxine

[Counselor706]

The more she opens her mouth, the greater the probability Trump is re-elected.

Maxine Waters embarrasses herself trying to grill bank CEOs about student loans

It one more sign of how desperately they are flailing around trying to prove they know how to govern better than the R's, when it's obvious they don't and cannot.

Pretty much fun watching her slap that arrogant Mnuchin around though. He with the oh so important appointment at 5:30.

Yeah, cuz his testimony in her committee hearing for 5 more minutes was more important than an official meeting with a foreign ambassador...

You call what the Rs (no apostrophe called for) are doing governing? Really? Could you set the bar any lower?

And since when does the current Administration give a flying shit about a diplomat?

Well, let's see...

There was the Trump Tower meeting;
And the supposed meeting in a Prague hotel;
And the phone call with the Taiwanese ambassador after the election;
Flynn's meeting with the Russian ambassador;
Kushner's meeting in the ME;
The meeting with Macron and State dinner following;
Meeting with Xi Xi Ping;
And the Prez of Mexico;
Trudeau;
Netanyahu;
Kim.


There are others but the list would be tedious. Suffice it to say, that this administration seems to care a great deal when it comes to meeting foreign diplomats. Maxine, OTOH, doesn't seem to give a dam.

Strange wouldn't you say?

But most of all, fun watching her bitchslap that assclown.

And so the circle of intellectual failure comes back around.

It doesn't matter what anyone says, or what the facts of reality are, you just repeat your first talking point again as if nothing anyone has said about it ever happened.

Why am I not surprised?

We have lots of ironing. We even have an entire dry cleaning industry to deal with it.

OMG!! So, there is such a thing as flying shit, just wondering what that was coming out of Maxine's mouth?

Right. Just about anyone could be governing better than the Republicans have been doing--when they bothered to try at all--for the past two decades.

^^^^Has no fucking clue.

 

[bellisarius]

*chuckle* And her husband is a banker of many years.

 

[InsightRiot]

I can't believe I'm defending the bankers, but Maxine is such a piece of trash she makes them look good.

Maxine was all like, "we have a student debt crisis!"
And the bankers were all, "We don't do student loans anymore, the Fed Gov does!"

Oops!

Then she tried to create sensational headlines by not dismissing the bankers, or she's just a retard who doesn't know how to do her job.

 

[von_Bismarck]

Banks don't do student loans anymore??

You didn't read the article or watch the video, did you?

 

[InsightRiot]

From the article in OP.

"We stopped making student loans in 2007 or so," BoA CEO Brian Monahan replied.

So, Waters went down the line. "Mr. Corbat?" she said to Citigroup CEO Michael Corbat.

"We exited student lending in 2009," Corbat responded.

Waters still hadn't caught on, and asked J.P. Morgan CEO Jamie Dimon the same question. Dimon finally explained the situation to her.

"When the government took over student lending in 2010 or so, we stopped doing all student lending," Dimon told Waters.​

Uh huh. Do you believe all banks don't do student loans?

 

[InsightRiot]

Dude, the government completely took it over.
