Mad Mad Mad Maxine Waters

I have a very humorous story to relate. Do you know who Maxine Watters is? Just in case you don’t know, here is just a tidbit to clue you in. She is the black congresswoman from California who is obsessively and rabidly anti-trump. I have heard some inferences to her possibly diminished IQ, which I have previously ignored. Here is the story, and you can judge for yourself.

            Maxine is the chairperson for the powerful finance committee which has oversight of laws and conduct of many financial institutions in America, which also includes oversight of the banking industry. Maxine was obviously interested in grandstanding before the news cameras in a meeting with several CEO’s from some very large banks. She talked at length about the ongoing problem of excessive student loan debt, and repeatedly asked the CEO’s what they were doing to address the problem. One after another of the CEO’s stated the same answer which was that they had discontinued any involvement with student loans about 10 years ago. Maxine did not see the obvious situation until one of the CEO’s finally informed her that the student loan program was taken over by the federal government more than 10 years before, and the program was part of her financial committee’s responsibilities. In short, she was trying to hang the problem on the banks when her own committee had oversight of the student loan program. Get this. She had no knowledge that the problem was hers, not the banks!! Now I ask you, is that plain ignorance or is it plain stupidity.
