Rep. Maxine Waters, a Democrat from California who routinely provides some of the best anti-Trump commentary on Twitter, recently reminded those on the House floor of the true definition of patriotism. Unsurprisingly, Fox News' leading gobbledygook salesman Bill O'Reilly responded to Waters' comments by mocking her hair:
"I didn't hear a word she said," O'Reilly said on Tuesday's Fox & Friends. "I was looking at the James Brown wig. If we have a picture of James, it's the same." O'Reilly added that he "didn't say she wasn't attractive," but that Waters has the "same" hair as Brown. In the same segment, O'Reilly later shifted gears by inviting Waters onto his show. "I wanna see you on [The O'Reilly Factor], and when hell freezes over, I'm sure that'll happen," he said.

"As I have said many times, I respect Congresswoman Maxine Waters for being sincere in her beliefs," O'Reilly said. "I said that again today on Fox & Friends calling her old school.
