Hey, Chris here — what is your biggest question about the impeachment proceedings so far?
@Donold Trump trump for prison 2020
@bugged out exactly you are projecting.
Hey Chris, does worst fake news journalist (next to you) of the year at failing ratings cnn Don Lemon let you smell his finger?
Fernando Queiroz Popovic Trump wont be going out of office. He will be your president for another four plus years.
It’s 3 years of impeachment, CNN can’t even get that right
doesn’t take much to stir CNN. Anything Trump will do it. Maybe after 2025 when he’s gone, they’ll follow him to Florida in the desperate hope they won’t go out of business.
@The Lions Cub He NEVER STOPPED✔
@Eric Wilsey ~ Impeachment started BEFORE Trump was running.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mr_BLtpFZMY
CNN – the news as we think it is
It started be for he was elected.
People who take the mainstream media seriously are already too far gone.
Who else should we believe then???? Fox News or trump
Ron S OANN.com
Ron S independent news sources and do your own research using multiple different reliable sources not just a couple sources that are biased. You can find any answer you want to be true as long as you look at biased sources. Don’t look for the answer you want to hear look for the answer that is true
@Alex C If Nixon would’ve had Comey and Brennan doing his -spying- Investigating for him, he wouldn’t of had to resign.
Ron S the fact you just said “who else should we believe, fox news or trump” is obvious that you only listen to liberal media and do independent research yourself…….typical of brainwashed liberals though…..just a bunch of sheep
Day 986 of the CNN gets every story wrong on purpose.
The first statement isn’t even correct lol
The “wherever you go, there you are” part? That’s mostly a joke. The timeline is right. I guess you could say it hadn’t felt like years but that’s subjective. So what “first statement” are you talking about?
@Josh Garver ~ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mr_BLtpFZMY
This whole thing is a joke, except there is no punch line.
@NickLikesCereal Or if read and understood literally as written, it takes on a whole new meaning
@NickLikesCerealOh I apologize for my incorrect spelling. I will fix that. Thanks.
Thank you for proving, yet again, that Trumpflakes have no real argument.
The only punch is to our wallets as our tax dollars go down the drain for Leftist Propoganda lol
@Barnaby ap Robert “Trumpflakes have no real argument” Here’s an argument for you. The DNC colluded with Ukraine to interfere in the 2016 election. https://www.politico.com/story/2017/01/ukraine-sabotage-trump-backfire-233446
I have a great suggestion for Democrats in the US Congress to immigrate to Iran because it has everything you need.
Wait a minute, 129 days of impeachment doesn’t sound like 4 years?
Only off by like 900 days.
You mean when they first started screaming impeachment ,
First impeachment vote. 1/17/19
Trumps first call to Ukraine. 1/25/19
But the CNN fake news junkies aren’t smart enough to figure it out and to indoctrinated to question it.
Math isn’t this guy’s strong suit. Trump’s impeachment hasn’t been going on nearly long enough. It should have started thr SECOND that he was NOT exonerated by the Mueller report.
@Killjoy Sanchez hilariously uninformed.
August West I’m sure if the impeachment should have happened then it would have. The Democratic party would have taken the shot, given that they impeached him over assumption.
And at a cost of millions a day… that’s one hell of a bill
CNN and their followers are the sewage of our population.
no trump and his cult are
@This is the truth Get fucked gingerly
Bonespur is filthy sewage. His supporters like you are vile. Do you have a rich dad that can pay off a doctor to keep you out of the military because of fake bonespurs?
“Wherever you go, there you are.” Is from the Buckeroo Bonzi movie.
John Patriot eagle freedom boner Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome
And from the Brady Brunch The Movie 😆
@Ms Victoria If that is your pic marry me please.
@The Fatherbox
Aww haha that’s a sweet proposal. And maybe..😊 🥀
@Ms Victoria 👍😛
CNN trying to be hip and cool
@August West – You need help. Seriously … find a therapist.
There’s a reason that Fox dominates in cable news and why CNN’s ratings are in the toilet.
didn’t expect that like-dislike ratio
RA I’m pretty sure most welfare recipients are Democrats and the republicans are the ones trying to get rid of it. A little research doesn’t hurt
Steven Sweeden no response?
@Steven Sweeden – You’re a self hating embarrassment! I’ll bet your ancestors very often roll in their graves from embarrassment!
@orange224 it is quite bad. Not Donald Trump bad, but it’s bad.
No one cares he’s going to win
The cnn impeachment process got the war with Iran that it wanted.
Good luck with the recruitment process, cnn.
You’re on your own.
Lol Chris and CNN = the joke that keeps giving 😂😂😂 and I can’t wait till November 2020
KAG Trump 2020
Chrrisy the nbred never has any facts
My iq gets lower when I accidentally click CNN channels.
