    1. @R L T This coming from someone who supports a man who thought he got extra credit for person, woman, man, camera, TV. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

    2. @Antonio Cimota The Trump supporters mistake his baseness and crassness for honesty. They don’t have enough education to interpret meaningful dialogue, other than to feel intimidated. Whatever the conditions for dumbing down are our national enemy.

    3. @Anthony Jones trump’s lawyers are probably greedy and trying to make a buck the only way they know how = lie for a con.

    4. @Greg Steele
      Some metaphors are just … ickier than others.
      My personal superpower from the discount rack.
      🙃🤭😏👽👾👍🛸👍🛸⚛

    1. @Marco Polo So? President or not, doesn’t matter, the military swore an oath to the Constitution, not fRump, and are bound by the military code *required* to not obey any illegal order.

    1. The Trump administration is not destroying documents
      Doing so would admit Joe Biden had won
      That’s not going to work out too good for them

  1. If you are waiting for Trump to do what is right for the American people, don’t hold your breathe. Trump will act in the interest of Trump (in his small mind). Trump has given up on Covid. Mr. Biden cannot be sworn in soon enough.

    1. No, it’s not Trump; it’s his lawyers. I guess they all want to be disbarred and sent to jail for making false claims in Federal court that the voting system was hacked in order to switch millions of votes. … LOL! Right! … Do you realize how f-ing dumb MSNBC must think you are to believe something like that?

    2. As my Dad used to say, “wish in one hand and 💩 in the other and see which one you get first”. So it is with Trump…you can wish he would do his job, but your hand will get brown.

  2. Donald tRump is a National Security ‘Threat” of the 1st order. Donald’s desperate, cornered like a rat & liable to do anything. A close “eye” needs to be kept on him.

    1. @truth troll Hey buddy, long time no speak. I posted something the other day and someone replied & thanked me and you and a few other posters for fighting the good fight all this time. It’s kind of nice to see people recognize our small contribution, now if only I could get Soros to stop sending me rubber checks.

    2. @3LD ROFLMAO, maybe after he gets done feeding on children on nibiru the flat planetoid? Seeing people like you, Ro, and many others keep on has been what keeps me going buddy, and that’s no lie!!

  3. Georgia vote both Democrats to the senate. Destroy McConnells hold. Help President Biden get what he wants to do for our country.

    1. @N W put competent people back in charge. The Senate can block those appointments. Of course Biden could pull a Trump, ignore the Senate, and just have all acting positions. But that isn’t the way it’s supposed to work. The problem is the GOP Senate can’t be trusted to act in good faith or in the best interest of the American people.

    2. Did you see ‘dem’ Joe Manchin has said he vote with the Republicans so McConnell would still have power over the Senate. Establishment Dems have no problem supporting Joe Manchin but hate progressives. And people call Dems lefties. What a joke.

    3. Before the election I received multiple messages on my phone from the Georgian Republican Party offering to help me register to vote in the Georgia race against the democratic challengers. Only problem, I live in New Orleans, born and raised! 504 area codeI tried to report this to no avail. If anyone is cheating, it’s the Georgian Republicans!

    4. @NoneOfYour Beeswax Please give Biden a chance! He has to first of all get through all the barriers Trump is blocking him with.

  4. trump should be removed in December as soon as states have validated the votes. trump is on edge of Treason.

    1. AlwaysA Solution “Sedition”. Not “treason”. The crime of treason can only be committed and charged during a time of declared war. But the good news is that hanging is still the favored form of execution with sedition, just like with treason.

  5. Disgraceful administration. I hope there is an accounting after January 20th. The people who voted for Trump are foolish.

    1. @N W Perhaps they are some other kind of citizen, but also the bane of good existence in many countries the world over. “Fellow”?

  6. Every republican president has given a recession but Trump takes the cake 🤕

    When will Americans learn….

    1. Next time you hear trickle down, or deregulation, point at this administration. Then laugh. Then hit them with a whiffle bat.

    2. Allen, that would be an excellent question to ask the fine folks in those states that sent Trump’s backup band right back to the Senate, to continue selling the rest of the country out.

  7. One week after Trump took office several Dozen people ‘friendly’ to the US were dragged off and disappeared in Russia.
    Don’t even try to tell me that Trump did not give Putin their names.
    I’m not really worried about our national security at this point because we don’t have any.

    1. There was also the Ukrainian ambassador who was giving slokin a hard time. She left country before they dissapeared her, but it was close.

  8. Why doesn’t SDNY serve a warrant and drag Trump and his tacky family out of the White House and let Biden take over!

  9. Trump, the cornered rat, is now more dangerous than ever before. He’s got nothing to lose by completely selling us to our enemies

    1. Do it any where. We have to replace the carpet and paint to get his smell out of the white house any way. He has made it smell like a fast food dumpster.
