Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D., Texas) called on President Donald Trump to resign Thursday in the wake of his criticized tweets attacking "Morning Joe" host Mika Brzezinski.

Trump set off a media firestorm Thursday when he tweeted attacks on Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough, the engaged MSNBC hosts who were once friendly with Trump but are now two of his staunchest critics.

I heard poorly rated @Morning_Joe speaks badly of me (don't watch anymore). Then how come low I.Q. Crazy Mika, along with Psycho Joe, came.. 8:52 AM - 29 Jun 2017 Donald J. Trump ✔ @realDonaldTrump

...to Mar-a-Lago 3 nights in a row around New Year's Eve, and insisted on joining me. She was bleeding badly from a face-lift. I said no! Jackson Lee posted a video to her Twitter account slamming Trump for the tweets, particularly for the comment targeting Brzezinski.

Sheila Jackson Lee ✔ @JacksonLeeTX18 Enough is ENOUGH! @realDonaldTrump you need to resign! 12:53 PM - 29 Jun 2017

"There's a sense of hurt feelings," she said. "Mr. President, bleeding from the face? You're again attacking women, professional women? You're calling someone a psycho with all of the individuals fighting for their lives, suffering from mental health needs? You're attacking a woman, a professional woman, about her IQ?"

Jackson Lee also castigated Trump for spending his time attacking "human beings that happen to be Americans and happen to be the media" amidst the debate over his health care proposal.

"I've gone through, as a member of the Judiciary Committee, impeachments. But we can't wait that long. It is time for you to resign," she said. "Enough is enough. I love America. I love these people, and we need a commander in chief."

Isn't she the congresswoman who wants a special mission to Mars to remove the American flag Armstrong planted there back in '69?

On a visit to the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory in 2005, Jackson Lee made embarrassing news by asking if the Mars Pathfinder had taken an image of the flag planted there in 1969 by Neil Armstrong.[2]

Prior to the 110th Congress, Jackson Lee served on the House Science Committee and on the Subcommittee that oversees space policy and NASA.

Nope. Trump’s tweet was like a line of poetry, complete with metaphor and a subliminal message. It was brilliant!

Professional? Like a prostitute?

[MarvinStinson]

But is Mika still bleeding from the face?

I do have to say I agree with you. His child like behavior is very non-presidential. He could go down in history as the greatest president ever but ONLY if he stops acting like a child. Keep up the tweets but knock off the playground behavior.

What kind of hat is that?

Does it hold up in the rain?

Trump’s counterattack against the so-called “professional woman” is not only ok but also necessary. A vulgar attack from her cannot go unanswered. That woman should resign from MSNBC for her very unprifessional conduct and SEXIST attack on the president of the united states.

How low is Crazy Mika’s I.Q.?

[IrishBrigade]

Why don’t you stick a banana in each of your nostrils while you wait, Sheila.

why, how insensitive of you...funny as hell, though, just picturing it...

[uncbob]

All Trump did was give free publicity to a show with very low viewership ( willing to bet most are conservative viewers )
JOE and MIKA are loving it

[Lionheartusa1]

Looks like Trump woke up “ALL” the dingbats ,,,, I love it when a plan comes together . Now howl at the moon !!!

This isn’t grade school. This is the real world. We don’t need another spineless George Bush just taking sh!t from the media and rolling over. Ignoring the problem doesn’t make it go away. You hit back and hard.

Furthermore, President Trump’s tweeting is thought out and serves a purpose, regardless of how it may look. He is playing the media as a bunch of fools and they can’t take it. I love every minute of it. A President who isn’t a spineless do nothing globalist that actually cares for this nation and will fight all of its enemies both foreign and domestic.

So when Jerry Brown called Meg Whitman a whore, Jerry should have dropped out of the race, according to Shiela

This whole thing has gone from just funny to hilarious. How easy it is to get liberals to go unhinged!

Sheila Jackson Lee....the only person in history to ask where a Portugese Water Dog carries the canteen.

[Vendome]

You’re demanding 18th century treatment in a 19th amendment world.

If a “woman” can’t be attacked under your ROE, then roll back certain laws and we will become caretakers of women again

[IrishBrigade]

His child like behavior is very non-presidential

on one hand, yes, you could say that, and if he continues with it people may get tired of him...but compared to the shrill nasal lectures about how we should be so thrilled have her as president had Hilary won...I’ll stick with childlike...

[chris37]

I would love to see her face after she read my post :D

A banana in each nostril is the only way she can be treated with the respect that she deserves IMO.
