  1. Everybodies life is in DANGER because of Trumps total INCOMPETENCE and the RepubliKKKCONS are all accomplices !

    1. DemoKKKrats and RepubliKKKans are scam political parties. Dissolve them immediately. Show how diverse America really is

  2. t’rump is so lazy and dim that he can’t even come up with a new conspiracy theory against Biden. 🤔😄😅😂

  3. Good idea Republican Corona convention hope they all get the virus shame on the orange monkey lovers

    1. Biden’s handlers
      Plan A – buy a case of Gorilla tape.
      Plan B- have Biden step on a rusty nail.

    1. Renee Speece F for False or Fake you take your pick, O for zero facts, X for the mark of the beast FOX ahahaha u effin Magatard! I don’t have to make up any fancy meaning for those fools, the world knows they’re completely psychotic!

  4. Let the first responders who support Trump be the ones who work the convention. Problem solved.

  5. Russian Spy 1 should read up on American politics and culture. Biden already had millions of fans more than Trump, just as Hilllary did.
    She got more votes in the 2016 election. The electoral college, media obsession with Trump and undemocratic corporate big money. made the differnce.

  6. Hey I’m talking to the department of fear and loathing they all know who they are. We all know each other in this big head game. Know each other for years and years. Most folks do not know their is such a thing as the department of fear and loathing. Good for them. Adrenochrome is natures high on Skizo processor overload. You get used to the ear bleeding edge are you don’t.

  7. You keep the heat on trump by everyone using social media to support Joe and his VP. Bloomberg must be asked to assist in this fight against Donald.

  8. Trump with the collusion of his corrupt cronies says he has led perfectly the war against Covid-19. With his logic he and his henchmen need to be tried for war crimes for the mass killing of thousands of Americans civilians and military when he steps out of the WH. Still amazed that the US government has no provision for ousting a corrupt administration and senate when impeachment is overturned by Trumps men in the senate. There has to be another way besides waiting for the ballot box when Trump is working so hard to corrupt that.
