  1. As Reagan might say : “Well Nancy….why don’t you grow a pair, and start impeachment hearings”?

    1. @CITRUS KNIGHT Tired of playing with yourself so you come in here to spew your nonsense? Good job.

    2. The definition of doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different outcome is: YOU.

  2. Another MAGA Terrorist attack should be enough to motivate all Americans of Goodwill to Vote Out the NRA’s President Trump…

    1. @Dittzx Where are the White Supremacist n Nazi’s?? Oprah and Maury don’t have shows anymore giving them a platform.

    2. @Moe Snert
      Hope so… I’ve never seen Antifa attack or harm any human… They’re not like the Right who attack and murder civilians…

      ..

  3. Democrats must begin impeachment process now… so traitor trumpanzee will know that jail time have arrives

    1. @M60 Pho You didn’t name his traitorous acts … Because you can’t of course. It’s all narrative.. no facts.

  4. This just shows you how many Reps are ok with hate. Very few admit that some of their party go too far simetimes.

    1. Wrong… GOP has held excellent platforms on race since they were founded to appose slavery in the Western US States in 1834.

    1. Ro, Democrats support Al Sharpton who has called for killing cops and white people! Now that’s racist!

    2. Comrade Fudlacker: Where can I find the proof (video or Audio) of Mr. Sharpton calling for “Killing of cops and white people”? “Cause that would be racist….if you weren’t lying!

    3. Wrong.. I’m GOP.. as most conservatives are. GOP was founded to oppose slavery in the Western States in 1834 .. Party of Emancipation. More GOP voted for the Civil Rights Act than Democrats. Democrats had former KKK Robert Byrd, a klan recruiter and Exalted Cyclops in the US Senate til 2010. Why didn’t they disavow? Why didn’t the Dems kick him out of the party? Tired of the race based/identity politics of the Dems.

  5. The GOP doesn’t like intellectuals and they tend to rewrite history that is why they still do not care. They believe they are still the party of Lincoln. He was a liberal.

    1. Lincoln had to much common sense and faith in God to be a liberal… The re-writer of history is you.

  6. My grandfather always told me “if you sleep with the pigs, you are bound to get dirty:…and that goes for anyone that defends Trump, be it ‘silent’ or verbal ‘which at this point is oh so little…

  7. The problem with Hurd is he sincerely believes the GOP is about self empowerment and the Dems are Socialists despite all evidence to the contrary. That’s what he said this morning on Morning Joe…

  8. If the Senate doesn’t impeach him then the people will know which side of right that they are on and will VOTE him and them OUT November 2020!!!!

    1. Gwen30 We definitely need to vote Trump out of office. But we need to be careful that our next President isnt a Russian puppet. Im sure that some of the candidates right now are part of the Russian masterplan. Dont ever forget Russia hates our guts and they will stop at nothing to destroy our beloved country.

  9. Will Hurd, Justin Amash….even Paul Ryan. Why don’t we have Republicans who are not leaving the party or retiring speaking up?

  10. last black R
    Texas will turn into the California that went blue after Pete Wilson showed his bigotry and racism
