Lev Parnas: 'Trumpworld Is Like A Cult, And A Lot Of These Senators Are In The Cult' | MSNBC

    1. @Kevin NYC so talking around the phone call. Excusing the fact that no one knows what the phone call entails, not even the people defending the president. Hmmm i think people get fired for less evidence and put behind bars for less evidence. But it’s the Republican president with the Republican Senate working together. Hand in hand as it was put. That in itself goes against the constitution. I guess only little people pay the price for tampering with evidence….such as hiding a phone call…..

    2. @J J fired for what? put behind bars for what? that is the bit I am not following. if no one knows what the call entails, what are we talking about? please explain yourself.

    3. @Kevin NYC if an average person hid evidence that a court knew existed they would be thrown in jail. If a company knew of evidence a person was doing quid pro quo existed and the person hid it. They would fire that person. Instantly. You stated “everyone agrees about the call”. No, not even Trump or Trump’s own team can agree on a phone call. Trump hid the phone call and real transcript. Now Trump is threatening people he works with and has in the past. How is this not Impeachment material? Trump hid a phone call and transcripts. Instead he gave a memo of his best part of the call as evidence. Its obstruction and actually evidence tampering. If he and his defense can’t even agree on the severity of the call, then Trump was impeached correctly. It wasn’t a “witch hunt” he wasn’t treated like “jesus” or anything else he and the Senate have tried to spin. The entire Senate should be investigated at this point for stating they were hand in hand with the president and white house during this trial.

      Per Lindsey Graham in Clinton’s impeachment trial “Impeachment is not about punishment. Impeachment is about cleansing and restoring honor and integrity to the office.” So please explain to me how Trump by obstructing and tampering with evidence and now threatening and hindering witnesses has restored honesty and integrity to his office. As a Republican Senator Graham has stated in the last impeachment of a president. Coincidentally the same senator Graham stating that he/his senate will work hand and hand with the president during his trial. Again the entire Senate as well as the President need to be investigated further to see how deep the corruption runs and exactly how many people are involved in the illegal or immoral activities. Lindsey Graham opened that door.

    4. ​@J J What do you mean hiding a phone call? Like I said the President could have claimed privilege over the call and he would have been right to do so. He weakened the office in my opinion. No one has ever done so and it is a bad precedent. So you are criminalizing something that the President has the power to do. We are going down a very dangerous road here. I agree we need further investigations. You still haven’t presented any evidence of wrong doing however.

  1. It doesn’t matter who testifies, GOP will still acquit Trump because they are afraid of big money. Citizens United has created a monster that is GOP.

  2. We have been taken over by a corrupt cult. Wow and the Republican Senators are the high priests of Trumpism.

    1. There are no heroes in “Democrat World” it’s full of liars, traitors, communists and baby killers.

      Still winning. TRUMP 2020!

    1. @Paul Downie – He’s incoherent to us. His base understands him. They should hire themselves out as translators … in gibber jabber.

    2. NOW THAT…that is IS funny…Errol 0007. And its true. sad. Errol is right. EVEN Lev Parnas speaks better than Trump. he sounds more coherent.

    1. Jason Graves- As a spectator on the outside looking in, the world sees a slow steady decline of American Democracy. Never thought I would see this happen in life time but it’s happening right before yours and my eyes.

  3. Republicans breaking ranks with the President? To quote Morgan Freeman in the Shawshank Redemption “You Have To Be Human First. They Don’t Qualify”.

  4. Call me CRAZY . But i trust the Admitted Criminal more than i would EVER.EVER trust conman trump and his orange ball lickers.of supporters Till the earth is no more….and that is a sad. Statement for any person to admit..VOTEALLREPUBLICIANSOUTOFOFFICE IN 2020…our very lives and our kids lives are at stake.

    1. Teresa Platt I don’t call you crazy….you’re just plain stupid. How many bs “bombshells” from CNN/MSNBC are you going to fall for? It’s been 3 years and you haven’t caught on. smh

  5. LOL that’s a challenge to The Reptilian party, Trump and his Goons hiding behind their army of attorneys.

    1. @MrSmokelife reminds me of when Trump and Rudy were transgender and Trump was motorboating Giuliani LOL

    2. the democrats interpret the law etc but the Presidents team has no testimony in writing or on tape. They are not reporting they are inventing as they go. Like right now saying he committed bribery or treason. That is not what they are claiming. He abused his power, but seriously he would threaten to get money or a deal. But in this case investigating Biden and implicating Hillary is worth more to him than anything for two reasons; in his mind. He wants to blame Ukraine because of Putin. He wants to malign Obama Biden and Hillary in ANY WAY HE CAN.

    3. @Ivanka speads for Quincy Jones what do you mean? I though they both lost their balls in Vietnam 😂 😂

    1. @Craig Eugene I used to think people like you were Russian trolls but now think you’re corporate America plants afraid of Bernie.

    1. Orlando Polan
      If Trump was living in North Korea he would be facing the firing squad.
      Perhaps they should implement the firing squad here for these TRATIORS

    1. Interesting. I heard someone suggest something similar would happen if Trump is removed. I guess years of work have paid off and, at this stage, Uncle Vlad can’t lose. RIP USA 😢 😢 😢
