    1. @Don Williams That is not what Mueller said . Did you read the report? If Mueller had said he found nothing , I would say so, but that is not the case. You lack the ability to analyze facts. Also you want to believe in Trump , and you ignore his irrational and criminal behavior to keep believing in him. How sad.

    2. How else would he get re-elected besides being the big heroic “war president’? With the ‘patriotic’ loonies of the USA waving their flags and supporting ANOTHER illegal, immoral, useless war. (Useless except to make the rich richer)

    3. Have u considered that he may be doing it to Defend The Civilised Free World ———— From Reptilian created Delusional Religious Hatred

    4. CAROLE LA POINTE Mueller didn’t even know what was in “his ” report. however, he stated, I did not exonerate him, if I could I would. Then as the question was asked to Mueller, Can a prosecutor exonerate anyone anywhere in America? NO.

  1. Fk Saudi Arabia! Payback for Yemen and 9/11! I don’t mind spending an extra quarter or 2 for a gallon of gas that saves thousands of troops from being killed from an unnecessary war! I knew dark days were ahead the day Benedict Donald was elected anyway!

    1. +Brian gardner Saudi Arabia are literally trapping the US into potentially starting a new world war. All that Saudi Arabia has to do is continue the bombardment and slaughter of the poor people of Yemen and wait for the Houthies next reaction…….epic failure by the USA if it rushes into to defend them 🤔

    2. @ra5928 1. Nobody cares about your toy car.
      2. Yes, technically, there were electric cars, but they weren’t widely available or practical, and we both know you’re only scraping the bottom of the barrel to salvage your desperate argument. Sad.
      3. You don’t seem to get it. You’re citing some random economist who made a comment, but you CLAIMED that’s what the bill said. The actual bill says nothing about automation.

    1. @Logical Conservative after all the evidence smacking us in the face! This isn’t an argument!! This is visual articles of impeachment but we about to put eyes to paper and get Mr trump on his way cause if we disagree on anything we can both agree on this UNCLE SAM DON’T PLAY WHEN IT’S MONEY ON THE LINE!!!

    2. Bombshell: Original Kavanaugh Accuser’s Witness Was Threatened to Lie About Judicial Nominee
      “I was told behind the scenes that certain things could be spread about me if I didn’t comply,” she said
      [Another] answered, “Leland is a major stumbling block.” While asserting she didn’t want her to make anything up out of whole cloth, she offered ideas for things that could sound supportive of Ford’s story, such as that she’d been in similar situations with Blasey Ford that summer.
      “I was told behind the scenes that certain things could be spread about me if I didn’t comply,” Keyser told the reporters, a stunning admission of the pressure to which she was subjected to by Blasey Ford’s allies.

    3. @lasonya maldonado “after all the evidence”
      What evidence? You literally haven’t given me any evidence. What a dope. How about you give me an actual argument?
      Oh, I know why. Because you’re just hiding the fact that you don’t have one.

    1. @i Love Cops how do you know the Saudis didnt sabotage their own oil refineries to draw the United States into a war with Iran?
      It’s entirely possible

    1. Mondfischli Stop talking your lowering the collective IQ level of the entire World with your Foolish Stupidity …..

    2. Thank God ——– For President Trump ———- The only leader of The Civilised Free World who stands up to their Reptilian created Religious Control System

    3. mY fredn,. poease do rush to any hasyet tasty conclusions, Let the investigator alligators do thei rjob and fin dout why Iran did thre attack. ATHNASKES YOUS!

  2. First we pretend he didn’t have that journalist butchered, now we are going to war on his behalf? Trump is not only stupid, he’s dangerous to our security! No other country would back us up with good reason! I have serious doubts whether Iran did it! Where’s the proof? The same place the proof of Iraq’s WMD’s are? We desperately need to break our addiction to oil so we will be less vulnerable to this type of thing!

    1. The Russians have evidently been joined by the Saudis on YouTube comments. They sure don’t like it when we state facts.

    2. We! Aha! So you finally admit YOU did it. I knew it a loooont timew ago,. Now You will have to be accountable for useing cane suger instead of beet sduger or high fructose corn syrup in soda pope or various flaorived ice creames with or without LED lkigh tbulbs. THANKES YTOUS!!!

    3. Trump is so far the only president in over 40 years who hasn’t militarily stepped foot into a new country. Take a deep breath and use your brain.

    1. They have dirt on Trump…….probably via Jeffrey Epstein (who just happened to have a fake Saudi passport and a painting of Mohammed Bin Salman hanging on his wall) 🤔

    1. Not true! beta was inherently better than VHS and super VHS is you thinkm otherwise go ahsed, but the truth will not change!

  3. Nope, Americans have spilled enough blood for the oil companies. The Saudi kingdom can deal with this with out American bodies.
