Jake Sherman: It's Likely Trump Is Going To Shut Gov't. Down On Monday | Morning Joe | MSNBC

  1. Trump has demanded $2000, knowing that the GOP won’t pass it. Therefore the $600 wont happen either, and hey presto, he’s just punished everyone for not voting for him.

    1. @Wade S I agree, there has been a high degree of polarisation in the last 4 years. Just hope that some of the voters in Georgia can see what the reality is before this becomes normal for the next 4!

    2. @Pallab SarkarMaybe, some people will vote party over their own personal financial comfort, just out of blind loyal.

  2. Trump burning the house before being kicked out. He’ll shut down just to creat more chaos. Thanks to his supporters.

    1. @duong ho yes but the point is that congress strategically pushes the pork conveniently under the pressure of “emergency”.
      The Democrats have been presenting budgets that propose to transfer large amounts of wealth out of our country ar the expense of America’s wellbeing…and anytime they present this thievery its wrong!
      Republicans are wrong to bail out big companies and banks too!
      Theres isnt a money tree but these budgets are crammed through covertly and Americans are forced to pay for it!

    2. @duong ho 600 dollars? Are you serious 🤣 feed a family for maybe two to three weeks whole BILLIONS are sent abroad???
      That’s called thievery.

    1. Not operating in any sense of logic? Some of us were saying that before 2016 elections. So many ppl were saying he is unfit, yet, many ppl voted for him then and this time more than 2016. Trump is fine. It is the ppl who kept voting for him. The are the problem.

    2. He could tell them he’s going to give their kids a venereal disease, and they’d still support hm and call him their savior. You can’t fix that….

    3. Christina Garcia he loves Americans you should of voted for him and seen your income increase NOW higher taxes higher fuel and 20 million illegal aliens to pay for. What bright future

  3. This is what happens when you vote a petty man child into office. He’s trying to break all the “toys” so no one can play with it.

    1. @Lacey Rowe well, the content is the shared opinion of many of the 81+ million people who really don’t like Trump. Yes, this many people can see through him. I’m sorry you can’t.

    2. @Lacey Rowe and also, have you ever actually met anyone who has gotten paid for being a troll? I’ve never seen those job descriptions listed anywhere. Pretty certain that’s not a real thing. I wish you folks would step into reality. The logistics are way easier to comprehend than whatever fantasy nonsense you’re constantly making up.

    1. @Graham Lundberg Well, I’ve seen enough interviews that I’m not worried about our regular military. But, what about those proud boys?

    2. @Karel Yeah… but you have to remember he’s not working with accurate information. He’s like an addict in that he won’t listen to anything he doesn’t want to hear and needs to hit rock bottom on his own. That and you know how addicts make excuses and rationalize with delusions.
      It’s like Elvis or Micheal Jackson. Too many people on the gravy train. No one wants it to stop.
      Add to that that he’s a narcissistic, sociopathic, eugenicist and you’ve got one of the worst examples of the human race.

    1. @Clint the follows of him Jones drink the kewl aid mother’s give it to there babies why do people follow evil people

    1. Yes, Trump is a criminal, a Mob Boss. Criminals get revenge, especially the Mob Boss, he has more to lose. Another intentional act of cruelty on the American Citizens.

    1. As if most folks haven’t already payed enough. Over 340,000 and their families haven’t been cheated out of their lives by this
      BrainSick POS.

    2. @Liberalwomyn R. Fatandugly
      I once heard a quote… not sure who said it anymore… goes like this:
      There’s nothing so rare in life, as common sense.
      By the way… I’ll take logic over common sense any day… and Science over Religion… If you are a liberal, then we’re actually on the same side.

    3. since trump has abandoned his post can we just have SCOTUS to go ahead and swear in Biden NOW!
      please end this madness – the republicans won’t.

    4. Exactly right. All about Trump. Well, it will all soon be over. Then with all work and possibilities, we will get ahead and be better than before 2016.

    1. @Lacey Rowe in my state the cost of living is high. My 1 bedroom apartment is $1700. Where do you live? please Please……elaborate Lacey Troll

    2. The poor, red state, trailer park Republican would rather starve to death along with their children/cousins rather than openly display their displeasure with their ReTHUGlican party. Go figure.

  4. This isn’t incompetence. He knows exactly what he is doing. This is maliciousness. ‘I didn’t get what I wanted for xmas, so I’ll ruin it for everyone’.

    1. Yes so true a complete spoilt manchild that hasn’t grown up that feels he is entitled to anything he wants

  5. A king rather watch his kingdom burn down with him than give up his throne.
    Theres a reason why he didn’t get re-elected

    1. Drinking his $3 glasses of water with both hands, while making America choke on his lacking of presidential game plan – because he’s too used to making the business model: bankrupt the company, liquidate all property he doesn’t own, and put the money at the banks his new permanent layoffs pay their mortgages – to buy up pending foreclosures…
      #FuckTrumpBecauseIAmRepublican !! !!

    2. @Gun Owners Most are Cowards as a longtime Republican, I am offended and you should look at your standards of others

  6. This is all just punishment… He’s punishing the American people, for not voting him back in… He’s punishing his party, for not going along with stealing the election… A month ago, people were talking about letting him work through his grieving process. It looks like he is moving on from denial, to anger. And he will lash out, and hurt as many people as he can. His niece Mary, told us about this several months ago.

    1. @Lacey Rowe someday you are going to realize, how wrong you have been in all of this. It’ll be a sad day for you. Because you will have to deal with the fact that you’ve been lied to. And that you were indoctrinated into a false belief system. Through a disinformation campaign, that was created by people who you trusted.

      But that’s okay, most of us understand that you are a victim in this situation. We’ll be there for you, as you work through all of it. And in the end we’ll forgive all of you. For the harm that you have all done to our country. Just as we forgave the rebel army, and let them assimilate back into society after the civil war.

      Get some help, deprogramming from your cult experience. Your well-being is going to depend on it.

    2. @bridgebuilder1225 Answer me this: Why were none of the court cases about election fraud (for this alleged ‘false election’), even those that were presented to judges Trump _himself_ appointed, successful? Why was even Tucker Carlson denied specific information about this amazing ‘evidence’? If that evidence ever existed, they would’ve been shouting it from the rooftops.

      The only ‘fraud’ I’ve seen confirmed from this election were two cases where men requested ballots for their deceased wives (& one also requested one for his deceased Mother). Both of them voted for Trump. Look back at 2016, at the election fraud Trump’s panel found, but didn’t publicize before disbanding. They were ALL. Trump. Voters. Trump lost this election legitimately. It’s fine to not like it, but it’s anti-American to deny the results of a free & fair election. If you only believe in ‘democracy’ when it turns out your way… you never believed in it at all.

  7. PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP DOESN’T CARE ABOUT ANY ONE ELSE BUT HIM SELF AND TRYING TO KEEP HIS FANNY AWAY FROM A PRISON CELL!

    1. @Shy Cat Because all that president trump cares about is keeping his fanny away from a prison cell

    1. Well it’s not like she was saying anything that we didn’t already know. What really baffles me is the amount of hardcore supporters that he somehow has.
