Former Impeachment Manager Rep. Val Demings: Trump Is A “Habitual Offender” | MSNBC

Former Impeachment Manager Rep. Val Demings joins Ali Velshi to discuss the Capitol attack and the upcoming Senate impeachment trial for Trump. Demings points out, “during the first impeachment trial we tried to make it as clear as possible that if we do not hold this president accountable, he will do it again. He is habitual offender.” She added that any lawyer on his defense team would have to be “a magician to try to stand on the Senate floor and defend this President's wrongdoing when the images are so clear and convincing.”

  1. The y have to keep showing these images so people mainly republicans do not forget. Donald Trump needs be held accountable and charged for his crimes.

    1. gotta love seeing those blank executive orders being signed….. LOL wake up Louise! You’re being brainwashed by this network! SAVE YOUR SOUL!

    2. @Richard Geib – the democrats are behaving just as the nazis did in their rise to power in the 1930s.
      If you can’t see it, then you are a nazi. Own it.

    3. @Richard Geib- how is what Brooke said racist or bigoted? I’ve heard people say that phrase, “you must be smoken crack” when someone says something or does something stupid.
      That’s what Brooke did here.
      It’s your own racist bigotry that saw something different. Own it, nazi

  2. Somewhere out there, there is someone sitting on a sofa wearing only a tinfoil hat and shower shoes and they are only half as crazy as Donald Trump

    1. So just how do you spend your government check every month? Do you spend it all at once or do you stretch it out a few days?

    2. @mad jack
      You must be talking about Republican corporate welfare.
      Rich oil companies getting billions in handout or are you referring the Trump Taxs to the Rich

  3. Trump planned and knew exactly what he was doing. Thankfully, his supporters were too inept to be successful. Trump doesn’t deserve the honor of pursuing national office again. Trump didn’t think Pence being hung was wrong. Allow him another chance, he’ll create a blood bath.

    1. he was hired to drain the swamp. He knows the swamp. He was invited to parties. He’s wealthy. He knows how elites play. That’s why he’s a threat. For YOU to believe he’s public enemy number 1, just shows me that you believe narratives spoon fed to your brain by corrupt elite controlled mainstream media.

  4. Fully agreed–every single person who went past the barriers after they were down needs to be held accountable, to whatever degree they participated.

    1. @Bill Rodriguez you think President Joe is skinny ? Guess what people think of your orange hamburglar? 🍩🍩🍩🍩🍩

    2. @Jason Milton God you people are beyond help. How can you not hate yourself for either letting yourself be so thoroughly conned/lied to/ or just being a clear racist/white supremacists?.. Those are basically the only reasons anyone could have for still supporting Trump/GOP.

    1. @Richard Dixon There’s the typical liberal, always so soft and picky. Whenever i see liberal men like you in public holding your girlfriends hand, i’m that guy who walks straight up to your girl and gets her number while you stand there. I know you’ll be mad, and say I’m rude or w/e…but you won’t do anything more than that. So i’m ok with having you nerdy guys around.

    2. TRUMP DIVIDED AMERICA. AM NOT AMERICAN BUT EUROPEAN AND FEEL SO SORRY THAT SUCH A LUNATIC WAS ELECTED AS PRESIDENT. HE FU…KD EVERYONE WITH LIES.

    3. @Allan Burns i follow TRUTH, Trump honestly stirred up DC and got America caring about their politics again. We all have new eyes to study with. It’s quite remarkable really. The gift he’s given the world…. I’m sad that you can’t see it. I don’t vote. I wont, cause it’s all corrupt and I knew this back in 1999 when my american literature and history teachers in high school taught us how our country is governed by a foreign entity. USA INC. It’s not united states of america backed by constitution. District of Columbia is literally it’s own country….. so it’s not working for us, and that’s a hard thing for many people to comprehend. Trump exposed this, and it will be brought to light. We are all taught we have rights backed by our constitution. Yet… we have no government that operates and respects the constitution. We have corporate governance over PROPERTY (not people… don’t think your a person in USA Inc, cause your not).

  5. He CAN’T find LAWYERS to defend him!! They aren’t going to keep the lies a part of his hearing! Good for them!!!

    1. @Sheila Boston because Donald’s buddies are the jury. Yes just like first impeachment p. Fix is definitely in!

  6. When someone like Officer Sicknick is brutally murdered while protecting others I would prefer if Val Demings and others using the Media would loudly say that Officer Sicknick’s life was brutally taken from him, rather than almost casually saying, Officer Sicknick, “who lost his life.”
    He didn’t just “lose” it.

    1. I would prefer if they hold trump accountable for his corruption and punish him to the fullest extent of the law – Val is the least of my worries🤔

    2. Less people died at Benghazi than at our own Capital. Our core of Leadership was turned into a crime scene.

    3. @Rocky Parent And how long was that investigated? Let’s ensure that this Capitol insurrection gets the same treatment.

  7. After the violence in the capital when the senators went back into the chamber 147 of them STILL tried to overturn the election. Surely they are just as accountable?

    1. @Brooke Baldvag But she’s a highly intelligent professional woman who can changer her lipstick whereas you are kinda stuck with only being you.

  8. Rep. Val Deming’s is one of my most inspiring ladies, along with Gwen the news reporter from PBS who we have lost 🇺🇸❤️ l like the way these ladies always wore their own hair

  9. At the end of the day, you have left history for others to repeat and if there are no historic actions taken to hold them accountable history will repeat itself with more confidence in action and a belief in what they did was right.

  10. What if those pipe bombs had gone off in the Capital building? What would we be talking about? They all need to go to jail for 20 years each. American Facts

    1. And if the brave officer who drew the offenders away from the chamber door hadn’t done so?.So many congress members could have been killed.And Trump went home to watch it all on TV after inciting his base.

    2. Then an old Tartarian building would be reduced to rubble. But since it survived the last reset, the damage would be minimal. Them former citizens of these lands we call USA really knew how to build! Freemasons envious they can’t crack old world structures…. HIS STORY is a lie. America was built ontop of a great civilization. Tartaria. Go study. Go rework your history. It’s all a lie.

    1. @Brooke Baldvag 👈 Wow you’re on every page displaying your bigotry aren’t you? By the way how do you know so much about a persons anatomy when they smoke Crack. Sounds like personal experience talking.

  11. As Glenn Kirschner said, “Who said ‘Stop the steal? And ‘it’s going to be wild.’ ‘We’re going to march to the Capitol and fight …'”

    1. @Brooke Baldvag 👈 Wow you’re on every page displaying your bigotry aren’t you? By the way how do you know so much about a persons anatomy when they smoke Crack. Sounds like personal experience talking.

  12. Don’t ever forget the poor lady that was trampled to death…while wearing a “don’t tread on me” flag lol

    1. @Brooke Baldvag 👈 Wow you’re on every page displaying your bigotry aren’t you? By the way how do you know so much about a persons anatomy when they smoke Crack. Sounds like personal experience talking.

  13. We have a better and more accurate name for “habitual offender.” We call them “career criminals” and that’s exactly what Trump has always been. He belongs in prison, period.
