  1. I lived through Nixon and Trump and my first thought was lack of shame. What happened to good vs. evil?

    1. Yeah Biden is the most popular president ever 😂audits let’s go we know Biden got 12 more million votes than Orange q! Let’s just show those American Patriots! Cult! 😂unbelievable!

    2. @Danny Danielson
      Our courts have spoken gramps.
      You are far from qualified to overrule our Judiciary and our Constitution.

    3. What happens when they lose control and the TRUTH is exposed?

      What happens when PEOPLE no longer believe or listen to the FAKE NEWS CONTROLLED MEDIA, CONTROLLED HOLLYWOOD, CONTROLLED BLUE CHECKMARK TWIT SHILLS, ETC ETC???

      THE GREAT AWAKENING.
      SHEEP NO MORE
      .
      WE, THE PEOPLE FOR GOD & COUNTRY –

      WE FIGHT!

    1. @Jasmany Foch did you ever picture yourself pledging loyalty to a man instead of your country?
      I pray what has happened to you never happens to me.

    2. @randal gibbons
      Coming from liberal progressive communist Democrats, I’ll take that compliment. Thank you.

    3. It’s in the ballots.  

      Now the printers of the ballots are in the hot seat.  

      They better lawyer up. 

      It appears that ballots in Republican areas were printed differently than in Democrat areas which caused more Republican ballots to go to adjudication and potentially be recorded as Biden votes.

  2. So true and scary. Im trying to remain positive that justice will be served and limitations of power for future presidents will come to be.

  3. We are a failing democracy because of 1) the electoral college 2) plurality voting 3) the Senate 4) gerrymandering 5) voter suppression 6) legalized corruption, Citizens United

    2. 7) not requiring presidential candidates to pass a top security background check. All of the president’s subordinates have to pass them; the only thing that a president has to pass is a popularity contest. In what world does that make sense?

  4. Never forget McConnell taking direct orders from John Birch leader Charles Koch and Charles ordered McConnell to lay off Trump no matter what he did wrong as long as he kept pushing the John birch agenda. Every pundit that ignore what I am exposing will miss what is really going on. I could write a book on this.

  5. Why everyday trump is in the news for crimes committed, but yet he’s still free? America law is useless to the rich, but everyone else watch out.

    1. Trump served a purpose & it was to drop all pretenses & show the US for the lie it really is. When all this is said & done, it will be shown that it’s not that the guy is made of Teflon but that the American system looks away on the crimes of the rich & powerful while doubling down on the poor.

    1. Trampy & the GQP are an embarassment. I have nothing good to say about them but wish them all to be in prison! 😡🤬🤬🤬

  6. They also should have to pass a psychiatric evaluation before being allowed to run for office.

    1. Also an age cap, friggen dinosaurs running for office keep holding us back with outdated views.

    2. Agree.. Trump is a sociopathic narc accdg. to many psychiatrists. No shame, amoral, criminal, an embarassment.

  7. The day traitor boy is finally sentenced, loyal Americans are going to have the biggest party since the end of WWII…

  8. The first legislation that should be passed – Restricting people from running in a Presidential Candidacy if they have been Impeached twice prior.

  9. If we let criminals like t* go free they’ll just keep committing crimes.

  10. The only thing that kept Trump from becoming a true dictator was Trump’s own incompetence. If Trump was a bit smarter, he would have won.

  11. Big question why won’t the DOJ do some thing anything about the states making
    laws against the people.

  12. The GOP does not really want to move on , even though that is what they say. They want to rule their way.
