Maxine Waters deserves 99% of the criticism she gets. But lots of people who talk about her district have no true knowledge of it. I grew up in that district, went away for a while, then lived there again from 2003 to 2014. Some of the district is bad, but other parts are nice.
Last year, there was a picture being passed around of "Waters' district." I took one look at it and immediately called BS. Reason: it was a picture of a beach. Water's district ends well east of the beach. The picture wasn't even one of the SoCal coast.
Several weeks ago, there was a video being passed around. Same thing & I had the same reaction. Video maker claimed to show bad homeless problem in "Waters' district," but visible street signs showed that it was filmed in LA's Skid Row, which is in Rep Jimmy Gomez's (D) district
Point is that lies don't help get rid of a problem like Waters. Plenty of opportunities to highlight real problems there. I'm thinking of taking one of those opportunities.
I never voted for her & I wish I still lived in the 43rd so I could vote for @RealOmarNavarro
