Washington, June 26 (RHC)— US Congresswoman Maxine Water´s call of public harassment of Trump administration officials has prompted the president to resort to his favorite communications tool: Twitter.

 “She has just called for harm to supporters, of which there are many, of the Make America Great Again movement. Be careful what you wish for Max!” Trump tweeted on Monday.

"If you see anybody from that Cabinet in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you create a crowd and you push back on them, and you tell them they’re not welcome anymore, anywhere,” Waters said at an event which was filmed and shared on YouTube.

Waters told her supporters to “push out” members of the Trump administration from public spaces.

Waters’ call and Trump’s response come as the Democrats seek to mobilize the public over the Trump administration’s zero-tolerance immigration policy, including the separation of children from their families caught illegally crossing the US border. Though Trump temporarily suspended that policy in an executive order last week, groups of protesters have gone after members of his administration in public places.

Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen and White House adviser Stephen Miller, thought to be the architect of the policy, were confronted at Mexican restaurants in Washington, DC last week. Crowds also protested outside Nielsen’s home.

White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders was kicked out of a restaurant in Virginia on Friday.
