Rep. Maxine Waters: President Trump's Advisors With Russia Ties Are 'Scumbags' | All In | MSNBC - YouTube

REP. MAXINE WATERS (D-CA): Can’t people see what’s going on? Why do you think they hacked into our election? They hacked into the election because they have to make sure that Donald Trump got elected. So that he could help them with what I think is a huge deal. Not only to lift these sanctions, but to take over all of these Soviet countries and pull them back into the Soviet Union so that they can have access to all of these resources. It’s clear to me. And I just think the American people had better understand what’s going on. This is a bunch of scumbags. That’s what they are —

CHRIS HAYES: Those are very strong words, Congresswoman.

WATERS: — They’re all organized by making money.

HAYES: Who do you mean that when you call them scumbags? Who are you talking about?

WATERS: All of these people that are organized with these oil and gas interests that’s in the administration and friends of the president of the United States. This back channeling that you see. These are a bunch of scumbags, that’s what they are.
