Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass is being mocked all over X for celebrating an endorsement from Congresswoman Maxine Waters.
While it’s no surprise that California Democrats would rally together in a desperate attempt to keep the state blue amid Republican challenges to seats at every level, there are just some endorsements that shouldn’t be put on social media. Bass is learning this the hard way after she popped champagne (metaphorically speaking) over her Waters endorsement.
Look:
It is an incredible honor to receive an endorsement from Congresswoman Maxine Waters.
She has been one of the most powerful voices in Washington as Ranking Member of the House Financial Services Committee, opening the doors of banking and finance to Black and Brown communities… pic.twitter.com/zUvlPkyYAs

“It is an incredible honor to receive an endorsement from Congresswoman Maxine Waters. She has been one of the most powerful voices in Washington as Ranking Member of the House Financial Services Committee, opening the doors of banking and finance to Black and Brown communities who were locked out for generations,” Bass wrote in her X post.
But social media users were not impressed:
Wow who is the next endorsement, Jimmy Carter?

Maxine, the woman who spent 30+ years representing Black communities while her district turned into crime, filth, and generational failure, is now your hero?
LA is a collapsing disaster under you, and this is who you’re proud to have in your corner?

Waters is one of the greatest grifters in Congress.

She’s a criminal communist buffoon, just like you.

Oh look, a worthless politician who’s been in office for decades with her district only getting worse has endorsed another worthless politician who’s done nothing but make her city worse. 🙄

LMFAO. Congrats on being endorsed by the one of the VERY few people even more retarded than you are.

She only opened the doors to the federal treasury and funneled millions of taxpayer dollars to her loser husband’s bank
Criminals love other criminals

Even more reason to vote for Spencer Pratt.
Auntie Maxine turned her back on veterans at the Old Soldiers Home in Brentwood CA.

Do you remember when Maxine Waters was named the Most Corrupt Member of Congress? We do! Birds of a feather!
