  1. White supremacists don’t condemn white supremacists. Therefore Twump doesn’t condemn white supremacy

    1. your playing into the hands of the commies. It`s about america freedom, look what Hong Kong is going through.

    2. @Nicholas A. Let’s not forget Trump’s father was detained at a KKK rally. You think parental influence didn’t flow?

  2. Vote them all out. Every last one. If they want to rebuild their party, they’ll have to do it on their knees.

    1. They are the reason he is where he is.They should have been ashamed along time a go.It did not matter then.At one time they loved their Chosen One. It is called.greed.

  3. That debate will end the Trump’s Presidency! It was terrible the worst thing I have ever seen in 73 years.

    1. @Joe Galati this election could be something I’ve never seen in my lifetime.
      a president that refuses to leave office. If they saw this in a theater they’d call it fiction no one would believe it.

    2. @Dopeamiine He had no history in the white house so he had no accountability. No one was sure how he would govern. Four years later everything that’s happened has happened under his leadership . He is the president he is the system.Biden is in the same position Trump was in 2016. That’s what happens when you’re incumbent. Trump has to defend his four years in office and why the country is in the state its in now.

  4. Trump scares me. I’m actually terrified of him. His rage, his racism, his behavior. I wouldn’t want to be within a 6 foot radius of this guy.

    1. Libbys are such sissys. Don’t be scared little girl. Trump isn’t racist,he’s hired thousands more minorities than Biden,oh that’s right Biden never hired anyone.

    2. Judah58, not at all. Some Democrats still think their grandfather’s Cold War is still going on. The Soviet Union is no longer.

      Russia has accomplished many things for the world including defeating Hitler. American leftists are usually surprised to learn Russia fought against Hitler in WW2, but I guess Democrats no longer teach history.

  5. “White people are under attack” seen a ProudBoy post a whole video of going to civil war if trump doesn’t win LMAO!

    1. This is the day the ProudBoys can point back to after they find themselves public enemy #1. This was the point they could have pulled back from and chose to act with treason against the USA.

      Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, should hold the traitors nicely. From Cadet BS to Barrf, to Gaetz, Moscow Mitch, Leningrad Lyndesy… etc… ad nauseam.

  6. Susan Collins, has he learned anything yet?

    I think it’s time we teach Susan Collins a lesson come November.

    1. I prefer we drag these Republican that have destroyed the USA out and tar and feather them. Susan Collins and Betsey Devos first.

  7. “If he does not correct it I guess he did not mis-speak” Dear heavens above. This is where you are.

    1. I thought that particular comment was decent enough— he was assuming he misspoke, unless trump didn’t correct it quickly, and that would mean that Donald did mean it.

    2. He didnt misspeak, thats been his message all along, This isnt new did that guy just wake up under a cabbage leaf?

    1. These Republicans are beyond repulsive. They know what they’re doing is wrong; they hate Trump, and yet they’ll pursue their self interest to the destruction of the Country. They are “awful”.

    2. S H Anything to take away health care and choice. Racism? The GOP hates Obama and vowed to wipe out every good thing he did.

  8. You know it’s bad when enough blood gets pumping through Mitch “The Corpse” McConnell’s veins to prompt him to say something mildly critical of Trump.

    1. The turtle was just using this as an opportunity to pander to the republican’s only black representative.

    2. I have the feeling they are getting ready to throw him under the bus. As soon as their SCOTUS pick gets confirmed.

    3. You could see the fear in mitch’s eyes – There goes my unqualified wife’s good paying political appointment.

    1. Also if all those senate republiklans are so much against white supremacy , why then did they all voted against resolution denouncing them ?
      House has been handling this anti white supremacy resolution for 9 months and it unanimously passed the house , But Moscow Mitch , Leningrad Lindsey , Mitt 5 wife Romney , lying Ted and sweaty lier Rubio said , yeah lets not vote on this , when those are our voters .

  9. “It was awful” we will see how awful you are..or aren’t when you vote on scotus..and Tim scott…shame🔔shame🔔shame🔔

  10. Notice how they’re already shifting back to defending him within a matter of days? That is what these hypocrites do. If they think it benefits them in their Senate race to condemn his comments, they do so loudly for 1 day, then they quietly go back to defending the President, then within a week or two they are obnoxiously and loudly defending his comments but if someone calls them out, they say “Oh no, I went on record condemning hate groups”. Just wait.. in 1 week or less they’ll be loudly defending him and making excuses for him.

  11. “Stand back and stand by” is not the same as “stand down.” And, does that mean that he is in charge of the alt-right?

  12. He’s never going to put down the deplorable KKK because that is his main audience without them he’s got nothing

    1. You do realize that the KKK number about 6000 nationally right? Hardly a movement compared to the idea of antifa. Antifa, who actually create more burning and looting to billions of dollars in damage and displaced small business owners. I guess that’s OK according to you. Your statement is lying rubbish.

    2. Neither does Moscow Mitch , he was lying when this just happened …
      1 October 2020 , Brian Schatz , on twitter … Senate Republicans just blocked a unanimous vote on a resolution condemning white supremacy. It passed the House unanimously. They said that after 9 months of the legislation languishing that the committees of jurisdiction needed to look at it and consider their “equities.”
      … or by other words white supremacy groups are republiklan base , Moscow Mitch even let Proud Boys leader run as republiklan in Miami Dade county .

    3. @pcdoctor48 well I say that I didn’t know that, do you know that all they are, their arms are to short to fight God at any time, we as the human body who believe, don’t understand why situation happen We stand and know that God is still in control Amen.

    4. Who has done more damage in the last year the KKK or antifa and BLM. The KKK has no reason to exist but I never hear of them doing anything.

    1. @Marco Polo trigger social justice warriors helped trump to win in 2016 so keep it up maybe you can get the orange anti christ another 4 years.

    1. I am not a Republican, but don’t blame the publicans for playing politics…RBG should have retired when Obama was president with a majority Dem controlled Senate. She could have handpicked her replacement. She was aleeady a cancer surviving near octogenarian then…

    2. @Marc Mathieu You do have a point there. She was a wonderful woman & a wise judge. Who knows what got in her way? Ego or something else? In any event, she didn’t use her best judgement in that decision. No one’s perfect though.

  13. Tim Scott didn’t say he “hoped he misspoke” He said “The president, misspoke”. Tim Scott defended the president & gave him an opportunity to change his answer even tho Tim Scott knows the president meant what he said.

    1. the message isnt anything new, for someone to be so lacking in morality and courage is amazing, who elected that goof

  14. TRUMP AND ALL OF HIS OFFSPRING ARE SHIFTING MONEY AROUND STOCKS, STEALING ELECTION FUNDS AS WE SPEAK, AND AVOIDING JAIL AT ALL COST, IN SELF-PRESERVATION.
