    1. 👆🏻 People this Fake Page Troll post the bs on every video because of getting Paid by your likes ( 👍🏼 ). Beware of these Bots and Fake Page Trolls. ⚠️

    2. I think Kamala Harris said it best when she remarked that Trump DRIVES everything he inherits INTO THE GROUND… 6 bankrupties speak to his past success… LOOK what he has done to our country… Trump admits he considers himself a success… A legend in his own mind… Could we get a SECOND opinion… He has made the US the laughing stalk of the world… Other countries are even sending us sympathy/good wishes.

    3. if first episode of THE WALKING DEAD started in 2020 the spray painted door in hospital should say DON’T OPEN TRUMP SUPPORTERS INSIDE.

  1. *Cohen’s book quotes Trump saying, “It’s not about WHO Votes, it’s about WHO COUNTS the Votes”. Like how Putin wins.*

    1. sounds exactly like what Trump would say, he has no respect for the truth, the law, the constitution, our armed forces, people who actually had to earn their own living, he is pathetic. Glad to see him on the way out. BYE-DON 2020!!

    1. Peace2utwo: Yep, and it can’t be argued, because the orange thing said it himself, on tape. Oh what a Freudian slip that was!🤣

    1. @The Verdant
      Minority BECAUSE I support cops and do think they are murders. Yup, cops over criminals EVERY day.
      Btw. I also lived in California for long time

    2. @Gog Mclaine
      Racist Obama and Biden

      Obama’s and Biden’s immigration

      Source: The Hill Nov.18, 2019

      “The Trump administration has deported fewer overall people than were deported under former President Obama despite the ongoing crackdown on immigrants without legal status, according to the Washington Post.

      While the Obama administration deported 1.18 million people in his first three years, the number of deportations has been a little under 800,000 so far under Trump, according to the Post.

      The Obama administration also deported 409,849 people in 2012 alone, while the Trump administration has yet to deport more than 260,000 people in a year, the Post reported.”

    3. @John Henry Holiday308 – save it. If cops only interacted with criminals reform wouldn’t have overwhelming majority support across the country. And murder of an unarmed suspect is still murder.

      Cops have to be held to at least the same standard as civilians if not higher or they lose the moral authority to enforce any standard. But ya, badge means automatic good guy…..it’s like communism – your fantasy world of a “good guy” badge won’t work because people have human nature and need accountability…but thanks for that entirely self righteous response. Hope the cops never suspect you of anything, they might murder you without a trial, but I’m sure your such a “good” guy that could never happen to you…. yay trump and retribution…. hypocrite.

    1. @Robin Washington It is really difficult to somehow “feel sorry for” people who intentionally seek out drama and conflict, and then claim to be “victims” of the very same conflict(s) that they were seeking and/or had intentionally incited. 😠

      It’s not that difficult to notice, or to realize; A simple example is the hundreds of boaters (..or bikers or caravans of Trump supporters in their vehicles and trucks), who all get themselves, along with their boats, bikes, vehicles and trucks, all dressed up in Trump-wear and gear, festooned and plastered with all sorts of flags and banners ..and then, while blaring ! their horns, go out and take over rivers, parks, lakes, roadways, parking lots and whatever other public space they can ..and challenge anyone to dare occupy “their space” or “domain” ..or might simply disagree with them in any way, shape or form. 😐

      It’s beyond ridiculous, and plenty dangerous (..as well as frought with peril); These cult-like Trump supporters do not want civility ..they want, and try to demand ! submission from others (..whole hypocritically crying “It’s a free country !”). Wtf ?

      Free ? ..Freedoms ? ..And Liberties ? : “Yes ! As long as it is TRUMP that you agree with, and it is TRUMP whom you are fighting for !”

      These maga-cultists are not friendly, nor do they care; and it is not their friends, families, co-workers, neighbors, nor anything for or about America, that they are really fighting for. 😐

      Nor are Trump supporters, really interested in what America DOES represent (..like the things you made note of), and unity, decency, commonality, inclusiveness, and respect; Things like honor and integrity, like ethics and principles, things like duty and loyalty ..and family and friends and neighbors, all united ..for a common goal, bond and some form of united purpose. 👍

      It is the UNITED States, ma’am; and Donald Trump was and is ..the very antithesis of that.

      “You knew that I was a snake, before you took me in” – Donald Trump 😠

    1. All the conspiracy theories make their miserable,boring lives more exiting. Trump’s like a Rap star for old white people.

    1. Yes its is fox newes broadcast pro trump subliminal messages not kidden i have found lots of people same story as me they all have the same thing incommen fox newes you cant even get them to watch anything else favorite shows just fox like my pops at the end of trumps rallys he says rember you cant belive anything you read or see about me you can only belive me. That is to reinforce the subliminal messages fox newes broadcast fact we had a study at the university on subliminal messages you can change people and they dont even know it that true look it up

    1. micko11154… agreed. Socialism in this context is: spending tax dollars, for the good of the nation.
      America decided that spending more on the military than the next 7-8 countries combined, was their priority.
      A pity that half wasn’t redirected to healthcare.
      The hypocrisy gets to me… I didn’t hear of any Donny supporters sending their PPP cheque’s back, claiming “it’s too socialist for me”.
      Please add NZ to your list.

    2. @R Wags it’s actually more like the next 12 or 13 countries. Unlike the rest of the world, the u.s. never ramped down after WWII.

    1. John Henry Holiday308 , I am not, “You Guys.” I am an Independent voter, educated, and have sound reasoning and critical thinking skills. Trump’s racism is well established dating back decades ago when he had to answer for housing discrimination in New York. I would encourage you to shut off Fox news because like Trump, they don’t care about you one bit. They will stupefy you though. All this being said, it still confuses me why you admire a pathological liar that is clearly the worst president in the history of the United States.

    2. @Raging Monk I know. The democrats pander to blacks. They always include a Black in their photo ops. I’m kind of sick of how black america gives democrats their complete and total loyality. It seems a little one sided to me. The democratic party race baits and runs on identity politics but doesn’t seem to do much for african americans. But you’re right, the dems are very careful to include black faces when making speeches about Trump

    1. @John Henry Holiday308 The post said Trump wished suspected child molesters well. That would be Joe Biden. Apparently you have never seen him on stage with little girls.

    1. So.

      .like friends of Georgia Floyd? The  criminal involved in drug abuse, theft, criminal trespassing, aggravated robbery as well as entering a woman’s home and pointing a gun at her stomach while looking for drugs and money.

    2. @John Henry Holiday308 hopefully you have proof of that but that isn’t the issue. Law enforcement agents and all Officials are to deal with and treat each individual regardless of their race, gender, culture, religious affiliation, criminal background by the oath they choose to take to do their job. They are not the judge and jury, they have enough to do by upholding the law itself. There is a reason why JUSTICE IS SUPPOSED TO BE BLIND. It is also to make sure even criminals are treated like human beings even if they victimize others. Our court system is setup to give a fair hearing and then render and carry out judgment/ sentencing. If those who have sworn to uphold the Law flagrantly break the law then they become no better than those they have sworn to bring to justice for breaking the law. If what you say is true about George (not Georgia) Floyd that still does not Justify Mr Chauvin using an Illegal hold for almost nine minutes on someone who was accused, not tried but accused of a crime that we don’t know has been proven to be true or false. Again there is still zero Justification for what was done to him, that is why we have a system setup to determine guilt or innocence. I would like to think if you were accused of something rightly or by Mistake you wouldn’t want a knee on your neck for almost 9 minutes until its figured out.

    3. @Renee Redding
      When a thug criminal attacks a cop they are allowed to shoot that criminal, regardless of race.
      Type in their name plus criminal When you will find the info

    4. @Renee Redding
      Guilt and innocent is for the courts
      Attack a cop on the street than the police can and wiil use force to control you at any cost needed, including death if needed.

      If I attack you than you could use force

    1. True, he’s a populous.
      Biden wrote the 1994 crime bill putting 1000s of black men in prison for a long time. Trump repealed that bill and freed Alice Johnson from prison. Who do you support?
