Jim Messina On 130+ Secret Service Members Infected With Covid Or Quarantining | Craig Melvin
Trump is like a Halloween pumpkin. Orange on the outside, hollow on the inside and thrown out in November….
In keeping with the Halloween theme, Trump is like Jason in those horrible Halloween B-movies. You know, the troubled and murderous man-child who returns over and over and over again when everyone thinks he’s finally been vanquished.
😳🤣
🤣🤣🤣👍👍
👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼
Bravo!!!!
Blame TRUMP! He gave COVID to all of you. He is the SUPER SPREADER
@Ron Wuerch you’re too slow with the trolling game 👈
Speed it up or Donny will fire you 🧐
*expanding
So much hate, I don’t believe for one minute that Trump wanted anyone to be harmed. Shameless liberals and Democrats blaming Trump for something that is uncontrollable in many ways. How can you blame one person for a pandemic? By the way I love how Biden just hid in his basement for the last 6 months while everybody else worked on campaigning for him.
@Ron Wuerch you sound like bitter hoosier loser 😂
➗ so many fake rhetoric profiles, yall are like the Dementia Infected Joe Biden and the rest of the 70 and above Democrats-STUPID
The GOP FAILURE to stand up and be counted and do the RIGHT thing. — SAYS SO MUCH ABOUT WHAT THE REPUBLICAN PARTY IS. As long as the Republican/Trumpian party exists , it will ALWAYS BE ABOUT PARTY OVER COUNTRY. — The only thing to do is keep voting out TRUMPLICANS wherever they exist.
Please let all of GOP,go.and let’s start over with good honest people.That would help all of America.
@Terry Fulds probably something very much like what killed most of the ancestors before us, a particularly nasty cold on top of all the other problems they had in their old age. Get that solid, right here, right now. Covid 19 is a particularly nasty cold, no more lethal than most flu viruses. Novel in the fact that, until now, a cold has been regarded as a short term nuisance, but this one is killing people.
Again, most influenza strains are more lethal than Covid19 so why are we locking down and destroying economies?
I’m not suggesting that you shouldnt get out the lysol if someone is hacking, coughing, sneezing and get away from them, wash your hands frequently, and be cognizant of the fact you have touched a public surface so dont touch your face till you wash your hands, I am saying look at the numbers, it is a nasty cold.
@Ron K It’s coming out in the next two weeks…. Didnt you know that ?
@Ron K Right… he is doing great… an X-Ray specialist….
@Terry Fulds I AGREE 500%. And trying to avoid getting married to your cousins…..
Trump rallies have spread nothing but sickness.
In more ways than one. Don’t forget about his sick message
@Brian Nave what a joke.. typical trumpster always changing the subject with fake news! LOL! Let’s stay on topic.. Biden is not responsible for super spreader carnie rallies.
and protests and riots are excluded from that in your book I’m sure
@Brian Nave it’s a website that creates fake news buddy. Go listen to ur daddy 🐑
And here,comes more Sat,14th in different cities.His kind of people.
I think trump has a putin mindset, if he can do it why not me.
Yep !
Trump is contagious…look at the facts. People close to him get sick so…time to quarantine mr ex president 😷😷😷😜😉😄
@Tony Martin Then the liberals are gonna be Whining about that.
@Colin Rowling Wow you’re a special kind of stupid. Do your research before you open up your mouth. I forgot you don’t have a brain so you can’t do research.
@Leo Mengel It’s certainly does trump 2020. The media’s more contagious then the virus and that’s a fact.
@grin chi time to adult up
@Leo Mengel u are deluded —Trump going t jail
It’s the DT Virus. He is a super spreader.
No, it’s not. It’s the CCP virus from China and spread it to the world purposely.
@Xiaoli Lee take your meds
Like Kamala.
The super spreaders are every Dem voter who celebrated in the streets and every MSM outlet that didn’t comment on it.
@blangh they were wearing masks, lol…
That tends to make a BIG difference:)
After the Election he wont need the Secret Service in federal prison. Praying for all those infected and the families. Just a few more weeks!
he’ll probably get a detail whereever he ends up
“In prison there’s always one tribal leader. You could be the head of the orange tribe […] when you replace that polo shirt for an orange suit.” Anthony Scaramucci, to “Trump”, Nov 13 2020 https://youtu.be/hyF_1hgdcXQ?t=1247
Trump is still trying to scam more money out of all the bull crap he always has he doesn’t care about anyone else but himself 😫😫😫
I heard he’s still calling for more donations. I doubt he cares about his supporters.
It amazes me that tЯump*, the Lyin’ King – who claims to be a “billionaire,” – continually BEGS and badgers his supporters for money. If he’s so rich, why does he need money from the poor and poorly educated??? *In 2015, he said he would pay for his own campaign and be “beholden to no one.”* Anyone remember that?
@Mike Jones Trump has always scammed people his whole life he probably has alot of money hid I really want to know more about what he has been doing in the middle East 🙄 and Russia
He will never pay back the half billion Russian loan, his loyalist followers will willingly pay it for him…if they know it or not….
His moronic base will gladly mortgage their homes to donate to Trump’s fake “campaign funds.” And once he gets what he’s using them for, they’ll NEVER hear from him again.
Are the Republicans not paying attention to the popular vote? Do they think anyone wants him back in office?
@Martin_Speaks Electoral votes are determined by the popular vote, genius.
@Martin_Speaks so you’re on Trump’s losing lying Scandal ignorant side good for you
Misty Anderson of course not, that’s admitting he wasn’t wanted in 2016! That was over 3 million votes for Hillary!
@horace sheffield Well, the fact that Trump didn’t have an acceptance speech planned in 2016 should tell you what his expectations were.
@Gringo loko Exactly! People voting because they believe the lies. Even heard they are leaving FoxNews because they can’t tell the difference between the News desk and the Opinion people (zoo).
this country is being destroyed. Covid never stops.
@Carol lady covid Lol. You don’t know if your immune. As if it’s relavant anyway. Yippy for your family. Most are not immune. If you don’t contain this virus, there will never be a thriving economy.
@Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedow we haven’t work a mask since 1 and a half months into the pandemic hoax. There really is nothing to fear from a 3 day bug for people of normal health. I would not doubt it that you too are immune!
@Carol lady covid healthy children have died from this. healthy men and women have died from this. healthy men and women have had their lives permanently changed from this. healthy elderly people have died. health status does not mean you live through it. please stop saying that.
@Carol lady covid Be careful of false hope and faith in your immunity.
You have about 3-6 weeks( not months, or even a year) of immunity to the mutation of CoVid-19 you caught…
And there’s no guarantee that everyone in your family “caught” that particular mutation.
So while you may be protected for a few weeks, your family is playing Russian Roulette with assuming they are protected like you(for only a few weeks…).
The vaccine, which I have personal knowledge of, is 90% effective…
(Wait for it…)
For a WEEK!
ONE WEEK.
So, we have some hard work to do to try and fix the out of control mutations of the SARS/Novel-Coronavirus (aka: CoVid-19 as us medical folks like to call it).
The out of control mutations of the virus are because of the out of control exposure that happened at every non-mask-wearing social event that’s taken place since May.
I hate to be a voice of serious caution that’s sounds stern or lecturing, but I feel it’s important to spread the serious truth of what we are facing as a nation with CoVid-19.
You may take the time to hate, belittle, bully or badger me about my response, or…
You could take the time to research yourself that the doctor’s, nurses and virologists are screaming about this virus for a reason…
You may not know anyone yet who’s passed from Covid, but we do.
We know the 240,000 who have died so far.
God bless all of them.
And may God bless you too.
May he help you see the truth, kindness and compassion in my “online voice.”
The rest is up to you
@Carol lady covid that antibody can only last month, and there are second time patients around the world. Sorry. you need more education.
Corona virus is playing call of duty in the white house🤦🏾♂️
Smdh
No you didnt….
The entire GOP is so sad to coddle that self serving SOB Trump!
@TX Rick lawsuits moving forward by state Supreme Court members Pennsylvania Michigan and Wisconsin , you guys need to keep up
@TX Rick After witnessing ongoing incidents of election fraud in the Badger State, a trio of voters in Wisconsin are taking matters into their own hands by filing a suit claiming the rights of all voters have been violated.
In a filing Thursday, they affirmed Wisconsin officials counted illegal votes toward the final tally in violation of the First Amendment and the 14th Amendment. The plaintiffs said ballot dumping and other instances of fraud disenfranchised legal voters in Dane, Menominee and Milwaukee counties.
As a result, the plaintiffs said Wisconsin results must not be certified unless fraudulent votes are declared invalid. Voters are not the only ones pushing back against fraud as a group of state senators in Michigan are demanding an audit of all election results this year.
@Steven Most have been thrown out of court . Let’s see if anything comes out of this . Not looking good for Trump . Biden will be president next week .
@TX Rick Good luck
@TX Rick Cure for Coronavirus in Austin….Monday
After trump goes through his legal minefield he would not be worth anything for the next election.
Let’s hope he get years of jail time.
let’s hope
Power=money. Constitution be damned, country be damned, people’s lives be damned. All republicans are now as guilty Trump and Mcconnell.
The republicans are complicit and more dangerous than Trump
Yes. The GOP has very little integrity right bow. Mitch McConell needs to go.
I hope you find some instant quiet calm within with this new healing sleep music . ✨ Remove all negative blockages and detox from stress. Rest and relax 💖
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KpiXB…
You sure said it.Thank You.
The truth is, that the only way to move this country forward is to get rid of Mitch McConnell.
@GeorgK trump’s too.
@2dronetek2 Want to wager on who will go first, Biden or McConnell?
@Betsy Bird Tell me when Democrats tried to work with Trump. Can’t do it, you will get what you gave twice over.
@Robby/Brooke Beebe The cult of Marxism is the only thing that will be destroyed. You welfare bums time is coming.
He won’t make it through this term. He’s already half dead.
They’d take a bullet for him but he won’t wear a mask for them. Pathetic.
@Ron Wuerch you’re pretty thick upstairs huh 🧐
@Ron Wuerch duhhhhhhhhhhh!!
Don’t cry it will get better go see mommy she will take the pain away
@Ron Wuerch The political standing of the secret service agents doesn’t matter one bit. What actually matters is the plain fact that Trump had put them in harm’s way of a microscopic threat and he doesn’t care one bit nor does he recognize the imperative work that they’re doing to protect the presidency and consequently protect America. Look past the red and blue and see humanity, c’mon.
@SKY SPY CANT HEAR YOU. WE’RE HAVING A PARTY 🎉 TO CELEBRATE PRESIDENT ELECT BIDEN’S BIG WIN OVER CONALD DUMP. HE MOPPED THE FLOOR WITH DUMPY. ILL GET BACK TO YOU TOMORROW AFTER THE HANGOVER WEARS OFF. HAHAHAHAHA
“America is like a ship at storm, and the captain has decided to go play golf.”
Truth! Lol, I’m crying at the same time though in my heart… So many precious lives we have lost…240,000.
God Bless everyone at every protest that wore masks and took personal risks to their safety to go out and speak up for what’s right and out against what’s wrong…
I love the 18-29 year olds too that turned out the vote at 55% for their age group.
And I love, love, the great state of Georgia! And Philadelphia!
We, the people, have taken the reigns again from the golf-playing-during-crisis-president…
Praise God and pass the gravy.
@Ch Garner Beware how close you were to a dictatorship…not kidding
Don’t the republicans know that when a dictator takes over, he will silence them 1st? A dictator will take away ALL THEIR POWER!
REPUGS bend over backwards to please their Orange Turd. So Dictator Drumpf would not change much for them.
AND guess who’s been taking away the 1st amendment? BIG Tech and the Media, censoring what they don’t like, instead of disputing it with EVIDENCE!
Funny thing, I still have all the rights I had when he was elected. Don’t you know that you sound like a hysterical ninny?
Don’t you know in order for a dictator to take hold, you have to disarm the population. All modern dictatorship’s disarmed its population prior to taking total control… which party wants to confiscate guns???
This is why we need access to better education for everyone. Including civics classes.
Kate Linares Very nicely said. Yes… civics classes… every year from first grade and on.
Trump wanted to defund public education, that is why DeVos was appointed.
According to my nieces, they don’t teach Civic any more. She is in 7th grade.
I heard Trump addressing a rally where he spoke about revising the school history syllabus. He said that children would be taught who were the true heros of America, and not be given the impression that there is racism in America. This was said in the contex where Trump had just finished praising Robert E. Lee’s civil war exploits, noting that, “we could have won the war”, and that had Lee not been fighting troops who were positioned uphill from him the outcome would have been different. He then boasted about how he was protecting confederate statues, and what penalties would be imposed for damaging them. So according to him the confederates, who fought to maintain slavery were the true heroes of the American Civil War. So if Trump had won the election and had a chance to fo this thing, you can bet that Fascism 101 would have been taught in schools, mixed in with some anti-communist and religious ideas in order to give it some legitimacy.
@James Brinkley They had other plans, which I mentioned in this same thread. I heard Trump addressing a rally where he spoke about revising the school history syllabus.
