Joe: A Confederacy Of Dunces Defends President Donald Trump | Morning Joe | MSNBC
Classic rant there Joe…yes, President Man-Boy blocks testimony and release of documents, before the four stooges whine and cry about there being no evidence.
@Terry B Yep Bondi is a loyal Cult tRump criminal.
@Joe Rogers Could be one of the heavens gate survivors the mothership returned?
Every time I see a post about the Biden’s in response to the actions Trump has taken, I have a flashback to Jan’s whiny voice saying Marsha Marsha Marsha.
@Ryan Ellsworth lol, okay. I’ll make it more clear for you. Firstly I’d love to see some evidence of your claim about the US AG investigating any Biden. Because how much you claim I have no evidence you seem very bold to present none and still make that claim.
Secondly, let me be crystal clear. Whatever Joe Biden allegedly did, is immaterial to the abuse Trump perpetrated that put lives at risk.
Trump wasn’t complying with an investigation, he ASKED for one… Talk about not paying attention.
Epic rant, I’ve saved it to my favorites. The Pam Bondi part with the tissue omg.
These Republican senators all have a vision of grandeur for the short-term gain they are pursuing. In the end it will be a long-term pain and they will be remembered only for their traitorous Criminal activities. Down with their sinking ship.
@Max Perde
Don’t blame everyone else for your short comings.
Max Perde, pathetic! Grow some brain cells, will you!
I hope they reminisce about the good old days, in jail!
@Alex Hamilton Dream on alax, the gop is finished ! Any gains “congressionally” will ultimately only further advance their demise!
What exactly are Trump’s credentials to be a president? He has chosen party/himself over American interest. Its proven in his tweets. Did he inform anyone of the 3 bombs on the US embassy? NOPE. He continued ranting about Democrats and threatening one in particular. Did he tell people about the US airplane that was taken down the next day? NOPE. He again was attacking Democrats. He continues to put himself and his party before the American people. His own tweets show this and can be used as evidence of this. What president, doing the JOB of the president, would neglect to make an announcement formal or informal about both things occurring? Only the one that’s clearly not doing the JOB he was hired to do and had something to lose by doing so. Instead lets keep people focused on the Democrats. Makes perfect sense. Now, Lets trade witnesses, WHY? Why are we needing to do Trump’s dirty work for him? He tried to investigate Biden and failed miserably. Why as tax payers should we have to pay for his witch hunt as he put it. Biden is not a/an acting president. If Trump is still that concerned after his trial he can open the investigation in a proper way. so could Congress or the Senate. Trump is an acting president. People should get facts straight and focus on the facts not a certain new station or the president who shamelessly lies, omits pertinent information, blocks witnesses, tampers with evidence, has refused to do his job several times, and refuses to swear before God on his own actions and deeds.
Bolton: Trump held Ukraine aid for Trump election aid.
So what? Where’s the crime little Johnny? None have been alleged in the articles of impeachment…do your homework little fellow..
anthony magliaro Oh I see, copying trump’s brand of berating intelligent people because you can’t handle the fact that your idol is a corrupt narcissistic liar.
anthony magliaro Your channel doesn’t have any content Vlad.
How many icebergs does this Titanic have to collide with before it goes down?
Thousands if you have thousands of mindless zombies who’s brains been sucked out by these psychotic alien vampires
It already sunk but Republicans are now claiming it’s a submarine and everything is fine.
Ivan McBleedy There is far more to this than meets the eye. Republicans are defending trump because there is something unbelievable bad they are trying desperate to hide about trump.
3more… Bolton,Parnas and whistleblower
Its not hard to make fun of the trump administration… They are a bunch of mad clowns
Trump’s latest defense in the Senate Trial:
You can’t be guilty of violating the Constitution
if you’re not smart enough to understand it.
@anthony magliaro STFU https://youtu.be/C8Zt0ni9oSI
You don’t know Jack squat.
@anthony magliaro , Hey witless Gramps,
It’s a joke.
Don’t get your panties all twisted.
@Gregory M , Their why are you watching it? Did you listen to the whole video? Or are you some lonely old hate troll parroting others’ words? Have you ever had a conversation with more than one living person this week?
@anthony magliaro We hate Trump and Republicans, lying and corruption are our strongest tools. We don’t care about rules/laws and only want to win the next election.
Playing by Trump era principles now:
Winning is the supreme value
Never apologize
Never admit being wrong
Losers are beneath contempt
Impatience is a virtue
Never let them see you sweat (Corollary: Never sweat)
A loud lie becomes truth
Poor people are losers(irony that many are in red states)
When hit, hit back harder
Label your enemies with unflattering tags and repeat relentlessly
Intimidate whenever possible
Humility is for losers
If you don’t know the answer, change the subject
And if you watch fox news (I don’t) you will believe they defended him with TRUTHFUL accuracy LOL
@Kona I was watching it on CSPAN. Watching the Fox summary was just funny. Fox is of course biased in favor of conservatives, just like CNN. My question is, are you listening to both sides and weighing the evidence impartially?
As a Brazilian the cable companies took Fox News off their packages. I used to watch it sometimes – better than Comedy Central.
@Dorien Sutherland Voce e de onde meu amigo? Eu morei na Bahia por dois anos vinche cinco anos atrais. I’m surprised they even had Fox on their service.
And that “confederacy” was formed over 20 yrs ago under Newt Gingrich. Trump is the inevitable conclusion & hopefully its end.
@LoveAndLight 360
Acre feet of stupid.
ditto…. Joe you are so dam funny here.😂 These Dunes are trying to earn that money from Trump. They are HAS BEEN’S But have fun getting paid by Trump…LOL!!
Can I get a Amen 😂🤣. Joe you’re killing me 😂
Amen Joe!
Amen😂😂😂😂
Not without a question mark, you can’t!
“Confederacy of dunces” is perfect!
That sounds like a song title for Joe…(The Satriani of Journalism)
trump is dumber than Ignatius
That was the most accurate and spot on roasting of the deficiencies and idiocies of Trump and his mindless supporters as anyone could wish for. They need to be exposed for the damage they are doing to the greatest democracy on earth.
Barry Webber you understood. Your country
@FRANCOIS DUPOUY Anything you say……..
@anthony magliaro trump for jail 2020
you keep dreamin “koala Bear” …is that your liberal platform for 2020? hahaha…i’m afraid little fellow you will be doubly disappointed—Trump ain’t going to jail and Trump will win re-election…how do ya like those apples liberal lickspittle? hahahaha
Hey Barry, I largely agree, but to call the US, the ‘greatest democracy on Earth’ is a bit of a reach – from a non-(US) American!
holy cow Mika, you have to put up with Joes crazy metephores – is he like this all the time cause thats the funniest news show ive seen in years you deserve a medal Mika
Her little bags on him like “oh dear no” during rants makes it so funny!! Wish I heard from her a little more but that’s a tightly packed traffic jam to merge into.
The BEST analogy I have ever heard Joe speak! Everyone chuckling made my morning.
This is the best clip of this show I have EVER seen! Glorious! The abject laughter and mocking of this ridiculous “defense” of the most guilty defendant ever to set foot in their chambers is apt. One must laugh so as not to cry… Confederacy of dunces – perfect.
The president is as guilty as sin,everybody know’s it they will pay the price in November, vote them out in 2020,America 🤨
republiCoNS will be VOTED OUT 2020🇺🇸
Republican party is paining their future and it’s looking pretty dim. Remember when he said he’ll clean the swamp, well he’s doing just that making it dirtier so you can see who the overflow was. He still doesn’t get it he’s doing the job but it’s also going to clean him out as well.
easily, in a landslide. Dems will have Senate, House and Presidency and it will be a beautiful thing
“If ever the time should come, when vain & aspiring men shall possess the highest seats in government, our country will stand in need of its experienced patriots to prevent its ruin.”—Samuel Adams
Every GOP member should take stock of their current situation. They might go through some things.
We need to hold these Senators accountable to the American people bc we pay their salaries. Pls call your Senators and demand to hear from Bolton!
vincent maldon Why did Schiff withdraw the subpoena for Bolton if he is so important?
“He literally dragged the corpse of irony out of the grave. He meticulously tied the corpses neck bone to the back of a tractor, and he ran that tractor throughout the graveyard of stupidity, and ran over every headstone before, once again, kicking dirt on the corpse of irony again and putting its bones back into the grave one… by one… by one!”
Except for the use of the word “literally.”
have to laugh at the absurdity, hope the USA gets well again soon.
What about Genes crop duster of truth’? Lol
Joe needs a raise, whatever he’s getting it’s not enough.
*snicker* ahahaha Eugene’s laugh made me laugh more
