Bob Woodward Induced A Confession Of The Greatest Lie In American History Says Steve Schmidt | MSNBC

106 comments

  1. Bob Woodward is in the process of taking down two presidents. The first legitimate, the second illegitimate. The first one a plain old American crook, the second a a traitor to his country.

    1. @Pat Moore And that’s a very nice and racist statement by you. But then the Democratic Party, is the party of the KKK.

  2. I love Steve Schmidt even though he used to be a RepubliKKKlan. He’s not afraid to hit hard back & counter-attack tRump unlike most Democrats. He doesn’t mince his words as evidenced by the ads he helped The Lincoln Project launch against tRumpo!

    1. @Russell Stahl Yes, you are right. Some of 190000 had other conditions but Covid lead to their death. So that 190,000 still stands as the caz of death on the death certificate

  3. Every person who has lost someone should get together and sue. Wrongful death, negligent homicide maybe?! conspiring to commit murder?

    1. Presidents have immunity from prosecution because all presidents make decisions that people die because of. It’s usually because of military action. I know Trump’s a piece of crap that belongs in jail but we just have to hope they get him on some of the many, many crimes he’s committed in his personal life and businesses.

    2. @Ann Joski Presidents are immune from prosecution…. Aren’t they?? They give orders to the military that get people killed all the time.

  4. Most people don’t understand Don speaking with Woodward. He will continue until the end. His hubris knows no bounds.

  5. Bottom line is trump is too dam stupid to handle any problem in this country. Steve you need to be Biden’s advisor in this campaign .

    1. @Kathleen Mitchell And Barack Obama, knew that millions of American’s, disliked him. Goes both ways and it always will.

  6. He talked about HERD IMMUNITY but called it HERD MENTALITY he is so focused on his supporters that messed up as always. TRUMPISM IS HERD MENTALITY – end of story!!

  7. It’s humiliating to be an American that the world has had to witness 4 years of trump. I said when trump was elected president he would be responsible for more death than Adolf Hitler.

    1. Adolf Hitler was a socialist Nazi means National socialist German Workers Party… and that’s what the Democratic party is becoming socialist

  8. Just the other day I asked, what more could be revealed about our glorious leader to diminish his standing in the cesspool that is his life. He had just been exposed has hating vets, calling them Losers and Suckers. I wondered when that outrage would be so yesterday by yet something uglier. Imagine he knew how bad Covid would be and kept it to himself. 200 thousand dead later and counting. God have mercy

    1. Me too. Then I heard about him sterilising migrant women at the border and I am speechlessness. I’m having difficulty imagining what we don’t know now.

    1. @Keith Johnson – Shelby GT500 Are you seriously arguing one hypothetical scenario that focuses on money over an actual incident that has killed over 190,000 Amercan lives due to a petulant wannabe dictator lying to Americans!?
      How sad and pathetic that this is the level of alarm you are trying to set.
      Monetary over actual lives, it’s just so damned pathetic . This provides a small window into what you cultists will allow your mental gymnastics to do to save face of your criminal profit. It’s alarmingly and again, pathetic.
      I’m actually embarrassed for you!
      Maybe you do need to continue to gather collectively with no masks so you can thin your herd and become extinct. The human species cannot evolve with troglodyte logic like yours.
      Wow…..

    2. @4D So it’s better that they start a war and draw the United States, into it. Now that’s some genius thinking on your part. You’re one giant iduit.

    3. I believe cohen stated it was the biggest political infomercial…guess he really didnt expect to win, he wasnt in it for the love of country, but (bone thugs) foe the love of money.

    4. @Taz Abijhan Being that he’s done more for this country in 4 years then that failure Obama, did in his pathetic 8 years.

  9. The kicker is your letting this murderer run for the top job in the United States of America. Who is more insane, him of the ones not stopping him.

    1. You know who you can thank for this: Moscow Mitch, Lindsay Graham and all the republican senators and congressmen than have not said a word or expressed any kind of critique of the Clown … that is to say all of them! Shame shame shame on these evil men and women!!!!

    2. Question is John, why isn’t he being stopped? Why doesn’t the senate do something…like their job! And no one who has been impeached before should be able to run again…even if the senate are crooks and don’t punish him.

    1. @Jock Young No, listen to Miket. He must know what the truth is, or else you wouldnt be able to lie so consistently on these issues.

    2. @Jock Young Do you support men with men and girls with girls in marriage?

      Here is Jesus on gender and marriage

      (Matthew 19:4-6) “Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female, And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh? Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.”

      Simple logic, since Jesus is defined as the Christ any doctrine that differs from Jesus is of anti-christ.

      Watch: To those who support men with men and girls with girls in marriage.

      (2 Thessalonians 2:9-12) “Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.”

      Same gender marriage.
      = truth in unrighteousness = wrath of God = ungodliness = revealed from heaven

      (Romans 1:18) “For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;”

      (John 8:45) “And because I tell you the truth, you believe me not.”

      (John 8:47) “He that is of God heareth God’s words: you therefore hear them not, because you are not of God.”

  10. Indonesia came up with a brilliant idea. District authorities there are making anti-maskers dig the graves of coronavirus victims.
    Trump should have been forced to dig Herman Cain’s grave.

    1. @Tina Horn That’s what I’ve said all along but the problem is the people that wear mask but touch something antimasker idiots touch, then get sick. They just shouldn’t be allowed in any business or public place without a mask. If your health prevents you from wearing a mask or face shield stay home.

  11. By Trump saying he knew Covid19 was deadly, and then playing it down, Trump committed a crime against the American people. A crime against humanity.

    1. If Trump 45 lose the election he can be charged with the crimes but, if he wins who going hold his accountable its important Americans Vote 2020 if you want justice to be serve

    2. Especially when you consider he was calling on his supporters to liberate Michigan on April 17th…..Then escalating the BLM protests with his racist tweets.

    1. So true. I’m almost 70 and have resided half my life overseas, in a dozen countries. Foreigners are incredulous at how inept America has become.

    2. To be fair, Reagan and Bushy Jr did that long ago. Proto-45*’s. It’s not like GOP lunacy and hatred of democracy is anything new. That’s what is so dishonest about the Lincoln (himself deeply flawed: a rabid racist for one thing) Project. The GOP have been far-right unAmerican fascists since at least the 70’s.

  12. He didn’t shoot someone on 5th Avenue,,,
    HE’S KILLED 200,000+ ON MAIN ST. AMERICA
    and watch, he’ll get away with it….SO SAD

    1. Vote! and take anyone who needs help getting to the mailbox or dropbox, or, the polls Nov 3rd, 2020 What Sad if the Republicans Party cheat and he gets re-elected remember that on election day

  13. We need a man who believes in Science.*
    Not a “ Snake oil “ salesman , Quack , and Charlatan
    who promotes Bleach as a cure
    Touts Hydroxychloroquine as a treatment
    Never wore a mask until July —a full 5 months after Covid -19 began
    and doesn’t believe in Social Distancing.
    This is a serious Crisis— extremely serious.
    COVID-19= 195K + American deaths……..and counting
    The worst record on the Planet.
    By
    The worst leader on the Planet.

    ( * On Sept 16 2020 —Scientific American —announced that they have
    endorsed Biden. This prestigious award is the 1st endorsement issued
    by them in 175 years and was
    due to his position on COVID-19 and Climate Change)

    1. This clown is so STUPID…one by one he is turning large groups of people against him …..fortunly..but it proofs he is not a politicion…..HE is just a moron

    1. LOL not I guess you’re fond of FBI agents spying on a political campaign lying to prosecutors and judges to obtain subpoenas and then when they get caught? Proceeded to destroy evidence like 17 cell phones from 17 FBI agents involved in the Mueller investigation?

    2. Everybody
      That has been proved untrue by the FBI! Trump is the ONLY one to have done this.
      That information has been out for a long time…get new material or start doing some research.

    3. @everybodylovesdevin How about the fact he said he deserved a third term. Or has undermined the DOJ so Barr is his personal attorney

    4. @Crystal Telf the Durham report isn’t even finished so you don’t know what you’re talkin about Peter strzok tampered with evidence along with Lisa Page who was was doing the nasty with Peter married woman cheating on her husband.. hopefully both of them all end up in jail along with a whole bunch of corrupt FBI

    5. @BornFree Die Free
      Wants to take away the free press? Never heard him say that.
      Used Military on citizens? When did that happen?
      The DOJ is investigating the illegal spying in the 2016 election.

    1. Trumps supporters are sheep being led to slaughter because they are blind to their fate & throw out all that does not align with their sheep herder trump

    2. trump is highly intelligent but talks dumb so his base will understand. And when they don’t understand, he just says maga. Bernie Madoff and his suckers.
