Via KMOX:
Missouri senator Maria Chappelle-Nadal says she will not wilt to the political leaders who are calling for a resignation.
Chappelle-Nadal told KMOX’s Carol Daniel, “There is no way in hell that I’m resigning. There are legislators who have cheated on their wives, they have smoked in the legislature, in the state capitol. If they have not been asked to resign for those acts, which I do believe that cheating on your wife or your spouse is immoral, I am not resigning for a mistake that I made and that I’m owning up to.”
In a statement issued Thursday, Missouri Democratic Party Chair Stephen Webber called for her resignation.
“State Senator Chappelle-Nadal’s comments are indefensible. All sides need to agree that there is no room for suggestions of political violence in America – and the Missouri Democratic Party will absolutely not tolerate calls for the assassination of the President. I believe she should resign,” Webber said.
U.S. Senator Claire McCaskill agrees. In a statement released Thursday afternoon, McCaskill stated, “I condemn it. It’s outrageous. And she should resign.”[…]
KMOX’s Carol Daniel asked Chappelle-Nadal if she was going to apologize for her comments. Chappelle-Nadal replied, “When the President apologizes, I’ll apologize. I’m not apologizing for being frustrated and angry at the bigot that we have in our White House.”
Just another stupid, racist Democrat holding an office without a clue. In 30 years, she'll be the next Maxine Waters and a member of the Black Caucus. Can you imagine if a republican senator called for the assassination of jug ears. This bitch would be the loudest voice calling for their arrest. Hell, a Congressman said "You lie" and was raked over the coals. The amazing thing is, these idiots don't think they are doing anything wrong. They have been emboldened by the democrats in congress. So why would she resign? Her popularity with the dumb racists in her district has likely gone through the roof.
Looks like the Democrat party supports her position since they have not all individually denounced her within 24 hours of her statement. That does appear to be the standard applied to Republicans within the last week, right? Unless Democrats force Maria Chappelle-Nadal out of office, she is living proof that Democrats approve of Assassination, and overthrow of our Government. And, unless there are consequences for spewing this shit, it will continue until someone, somewhere attempts to assassinate the President or a member of his family. Then believe me, all hell is going to break loose. Missouri, the ball is in your court. Condone it? Or demand her resignation?
