    1. @Asian White Nationalist Takes one to know one & you seem to know his “daddy” very well, good for you 🙂

    2. @B R. Is that meant to be some kind of homophobic snark?! You BIGOT! I have a good mind to report you to the Leftwing thought police you racist. misogynistic, Nazi!!!

    3. @John Swofford Yes, He’s had to work with Nancy Pelosi, Elijah Cummings and other low lives like AOC.
      But he’s a strong and Great President and able to fight back against those dishonest A-holes.

    1. With Trump saying nice things about him that are not true will only hurt your own reputation, moral judgment and will decrease the value of your integrity,it’s a no thanks, I’ll pass for me.

    1. Boss Anova I’m fine with Roe v Wade. I know, that doesn’t fit into your narrow worldview or identity politics but yep, I’m a fiscal conservative who LOVES abortions.

      Abortions make good fiscal sense. Each one saves society millions in welfare, court, incarceration costs and lowers crime.

      Anything else?

    1. @Chloe Key
      My memory can be used for more productive things, not for remembering what lunatics with grand delusions do.

    2. Hopefully China will succeed in hacking Republicans and we’ll be seeing heaps of hacked info being dumped just ahead of the 2020 election.
      No need for any Dems to report any foreign help with their campaign – Moscow Mitch says so.
      There’s a lot more at stake, financially, for China than for Russia, and they have some very capable people.

  1. Oh , well that’s too bad. ….for this gentleman who sold his soul , morality and spine on national tv last week ..to get trump to notice him in the first place .

    1. Tracy….You mean the guy who stated nothing but facts to the corrupted and fake “law man”? Wake up from your FAIRY tale of Russian collusion, ya loser.

    2. @jabs69 Ratcliffe embarrassed himself with his stupid statement about Mueller’s Report. Every prosecutor who doesn’t indict gives a written reason for not doing so. Mueller did just that in part two of his report that Ratcliffe claimed was illegal. For a former US Attorney, Ratcliffe is really misinformed.

  2. Trump you are supposed to vett before nominating someone … you nominated him after seeing his questioning Mueller. Pathetic 😡

    1. Now Trump is claiming the press needs to vet for him in the future. At least there would be some vetting.

  3. Lying, lying, lying. Wg
    Whatr a bogus president. A used car sales man has bettermoraks. (Nothing against car salesman)

  4. Why do you say Russia is trying to interfere when the fact is THEY ARE INTERFERING. there’s no such thing as trying they are either doing it or not. Words matter.

  5. russian bots and trolls seem to be very active on this segment !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 262 dislikes ???????????

  6. *_That’s why the Trump administration has the best team if you can’t perform to the high standards set, ‘You’re Fired’… Next pleased._* 👀
