Washington, May 3 (RHC)-- U.S. Congresswoman Maxine Waters has said President Donald Trump should do the country "a favor" and "resign" over his lack of understanding of the presidency. Trump acknowledged last week that being president was "more work than my previous life" and that he thought the presidency "would be easier."
Waters, a Democrat from California and a fierce critic of the Trump administration, pointed to that comment, suggesting that the president should step down. "Trump confessed to Reuters that being President is more challenging than he anticipated. He should do himself and the country a favor and resign," she tweeted.
Trump has also complained about the "little cocoon" surrounding the White House life, saying he "can't drive anymore" because of presidential security.
Maxine Waters has repeatedly accused Trump of not being the legitimate president because of the allegations that Russia interfered in the 2016 presidential election to get him elected. The congresswoman has previously called Trump a "liar" and also vowed to "fight every day until he is impeached."
"If we determine the fact that there has been collusion, then I really do think this president can be impeached," Waters said last month of Russia's alleged hacking of the election.
