    1. @J walsh indeed. labeling someone who has a diff political belief than you a “bigot” or “racist” isnt very fair. you dont know anything about them…..??…..how does that make sense??

    2. @J walsh who do you support in 2020?? im willing to listen….none of them are as good a leader as trump…….just as hillary was NOT…………..??…..candidate??

    3. @J walsh you wanted to make it sound like you had it figured out………..who will turn our country in the right direction??…………away from putin(i guess??)??………..lets work together. give me a candidate??…..a decent one. im waiting. the rest seems like self-righteous HATE….??

    4. @J walsh the new left is people like GA rep erica thomas…….using the race card when convenient, even tho its clear which one was the racist/bigot. sorry. i would never want to be like her. selfish hypocrite.

  1. Democrat or republicab- we have to agree that Putin is truly loving this….we need to stop this bs bickering and get back to serving our nation. Period.

    1. @Sammy Bolo partisanship aside…..you went ahead and made it a partisan issue but it’s not….this is the problem nowadays..

    1. You might call it the Great Awakening, but a qualified psychiatrist would call it paranoid delusional.

  2. No, you’ve always been weak. It’s why your democracy is falling so quickly. A terrorist nation always falls.

  3. Polosi needs to be replaced, with someone who will do the right thing and file impeachment proceedings against Trump. She is failing the people who put the Dems back in charge of the house to put checks on Trump. She is just too worried about optics for next election. They are not there to be concerned about that, they are there to do the what is right. Trump broke laws and needs to account,

  4. Democratic media works for rich bankers, Big Pharma corporate elite. NWOrder globalists lobbyists, Not You

    1. Medicare Part-D was passed under George Bush. It was a vote buying bill for the seniors. It was never paid for by raising taxes. Mitch McConnell voted for that bill. It was a Republican bill and inside the bill they made it illegal for Medicare to negotiate for lower prices. Drug Prices have gone straight up since. Mitch McConnell Republican gets huge amounts of money from the drug lobby and is stopping Trumps attempt to get lower drug prices.

  5. Americans who say that they like Trumpneed to understand that it isn’t Trump that they like, it’s what he tells them that they like. As an actual person, he just isn’t likeable. You know, like a cult leader.

  6. Trump thinks Putin is a friend – he still doesn’t get it. Trump’s ego is too big to believe other wise.

    1. GramaJ Catherder nobody gets it. When putin is finished with him and his family theyll all be taking a polonium nap.

  7. dems which bathroom do i use antifa gotta get my gains. repubs ? six hundred and fifty trillion rounds clean and dry.

  8. No… Putin hasn’t weakened us, we have weak President and once his Criminal Presidency is held to account, we will bounce back stronger than ever… stay tuned

    1. @Dequane Tate hes right our military has known this since Obama and has been working since despite our president Russia will pay hard for this

    2. @Dequane Tate
      President Obama’s Recovery is still booming… One man can’t bring down 200yrs. History will have Trump as the most corrupt Traitor and a one term most unpopular POTUS ever…

  9. look like the mob president will do jail time when he gets out of the office.nice to know that he will pay for is crime

  10. The US is not looked upon by the world as the “Backbone of freedom”! In virtually every nation there are laws in place prohibiting foreigners from involving themselves in local political matters, including the USA. Ironically there is no organization that is more involved in trying to alter the internal politics of Sovereign Nations that is the US government via the CIA and even the FBI. We have just seen that these evil bureaucrats will fight against popular political movements even if they happen to be in the US itself. Its time that Trump start to enforce a policy like Star Trek’s “Prime Directive”. The US now has a Homeland Security department to protect from such things. All the world’s nations are now hoping this event will lead to the CIA being disbanded and Trump starts observing a “Prime Directive”.

  11. Rhetoric indeed… We all know the answer. The only way Trump can avoid spending many years in jail, together with his kids, assciates, and appointees, is to be re-elected in 2020. Thus he will do *anything* to get re-elected,no matter how unethical, criminal, and treacherous it is.
    And the same may be the case for McConnell and several other GOP senators — although maybe with “losing millions of dollars in donations, bribes, and kickbacks” instead of “going to jail”.

  12. How about impeach on the Eve of the election? Don’t say that breaks convention. Convention has been invalidated in this presidency. Keep him busy. Loose the impeachment trial so he is still president and can’t Amnesty himself. Better outcome than the Nixon hand over in exchange for Amnesty.

  13. why is McConnell stopping any protection on voters, because he knows he can’t win without putin.

  14. And what about McConnell? How many bills to protect elections have not been allowed to be voted on in the Senate??? Traitor behaviour!
