'Loser!': Trump's Own Lawyer Cohen Hits 'Crybaby' Trump After Biden Win | The Beat With Ari Melber
Trumpers are getting double taxed!!!, They tried voting twice for Trump and still lost
This is sounding more and more like a cult, if it already isn’t.
@Berry Turner cult of personality, rational thought has no part in it.
@Kent Turner And the cult leader apparently is broke which is why he started a gofundme page like the Build the Wall campaign.
@Berry Turner Yes it’s a cult, where you either get it or you don’t. I don’t understand how he has this mysterious power over people, an obese clown with orange paint on his face, an amoral con man and liar. I really don’t see the appeal here
@Berry Turner well sure. Honestly people knew that he can’t run a successful business. I mean how can you lose money owning a casino?
Way to catch up, Michael. I’ve been calling him a cry baby for the last 4 years.
Trump ain’t no crybaby 😢, He is a W.A.P. .
IKR
…watch the opinion of Donny Deutsch…it is brilliant!
I agree..
Asking for donations from Trump supporters is exactly what led to the indictment of Steve Bannon, lololololol 😂
Spot on!
@President Joe Biden I just call them, The Dumb.
It’s delicious watching Prump and his bootlickers’ desperation!
@tommy nevils Ha,ha! Me too!! I enjoy keep saying Trump LOST rather than Biden won. But on a serious note he seems to be planning something very BIG and devastating stuff with his boss Putin. Try to connect all the dots here. Trump declines to concede. Almost all major foreign leaders have called Biden and recognized his victory EXCEPT Putin. Pompeo is preparing for Trump’s 2nd term. Esper has been fired and his last sentence was “God help us”. Chris Wray would be next and would be quickly replaced by another Acting Director (a Trump loyalist). He is asking GSA to stop recognizing Biden as Election Winner and stop handing over the keys to formally start transition. In the meantime his GOP loyalists and Governors are mounting pressure on PA, GA, NV and MI where Trump lost. Barr asking federal investigators to investigate widespread fraud. Who knows while investigating they may very well create enough false, doctored evidences and people to falsely testify under oath. Meantime DJTJ and his GF are already working on take over GOP. If this is not a coup in plain sight then what is it??? I still remember Bill Maher had said a while ago and his former personal attorney Michael Cohen also said in his book that all Trump and his legal team have been doing for the past two year or so is to go through the entire US constitution and see where the loopholes and ambiguities are and what’s NOT written clearly. He then said that when time comes They will try to fight what is NOT written. For example (I think) its not clearly written in the constitution whether a winning president could be sworn-in without losing candidate formally conceding the election. Trump has numerous legal cases looming and he knows that he would a toast once he leaves the WH. If he had won then I am sure he would have started planning for the 3rd term or forever term. He had openly said that in his rallies that his first term should be extended since Obama “spied” on it.
@Chutiya Benchod you’re so correct, it’s unbelievable how a mad man can do to a country
This is pathetic.. Let them waste their money like they did paying for Bannons lifestyle.. Stupid is as stupid does..
What happened with that?
Antony Stringfellow it’s the perfect marriage. The willing ignorant and the willing to take your cash.
I sometimes do feel sorry for the trumpards, they are so very stupid, that most will have their families go without, to give their hard earned money to pay trumps bills. I am sure that alot of them are good people, just easily fooled. They need to wake up
At this point, I couldn’t care less. Let him drain the Trumpsters dry. I’m mentally drained! Four years of foolishness and nonsense dealing with Trump and his cult members.
@Antony Stringfellow 😂😂 I want all of them to go broke then these idiots will learm
Every con artist has to have one last con. Only the stupidest of supporters will support this. Trump needs to go to jail.
If Trump ever gets sentenced, he should do community service, like cleaning the streets of Baltimore or anywhere else he’s accused of being filthy.
@Rocky Koast is rather see him do hard labor like splitting rocks next to his family doing the same.
BIDEN SHOULD BE THE FIRST IN JAIL,ONLY THAT THE MEDIA AND BIG TECH HAVE DEDENDED HIM…
Democracy wins!
Putin loses!
Trump loses!
You repeated yourself, the last 2 statements are the same thing
Your brain lost a long time ago from being in your useless head.
@J R perhaps a battle not the war.
But Trump always and forever Putin’s puppet on a string.
@Kenshannon Jeter And it’s yet another brainless moron who’s pushing that debunked garbage. Get a life you pathetic loser.
Americans need to stand up, this is super embarrassing… if you ever need to preach the message to dictatorships around the world…from Canada
50 is bigger than 47. Accept it. Move along children.
And by children you mean everyone under 60 lol.. america is now run by a fossil.. no wonder he against fossil fuels he doesn’t want his generation being dug up
Classic trump scam… Trump’s bee doing this his whole life 😳😳😳😳
Doesn’t matter. He’s also been allowed to get away with it his whole life. Corrupt people love him for it. They value his ability to do this. It’s the same thing with TV evangelists. Total con artist but people think they are great men.
😳😳
Trump will be back as a proud Boy or a white supremacists to take over the government in few years!!! Geez that’s probably his next plan.
REMEMBER “FUND THE WALL SCAM” THAT LED TO THE INDICTMENT OF STEVE BANNON. THIS WILL BE THE SAME.
Lock him up
Yep good ole “fake billionaire” is broke and is fundraising after his loss, a new low for an old crook.
@Louise Australia What’s 400,000 times 4? Genius. Could it be 1.6 million? Think so.
@Peters Peters It’s several different charities. And the last one went to operation warp speed. Try paying attention and you might actually learn something. Twit.
@Louise Australia And you don’t understand that it’s his business and not him. You liberals are so stupid.
@Tim Kozlowski > Trump Golf Cost To Taxpayers $142M https://www.trumpgolfcount.com/
@Golden State He’s conned them for over four years, so what’s another few months? He’s conned and blamed all his life, he’s a grifter and the fact he became president doesn’t change his natural inclination. Maybe they’ll stump up the $400 million debt he’s personally acknowledge falls due in the next couple of years.
Trump’s base is ending up being his social security blanket, he’ll squeeze every drop he can out of them and will give them nothing in return.
And they wonder why they live in trailers.
They have GOT to know something is up by now. Good grief!
@DynaCatlovesme exactly
It’s worse than giving them nothing in return. He WILL blame them for his not winning a second term. It’s only a matter of time before he starts saying nasty things about them to them.
@Mike Ross You are so right he will start blame them for his second loss
He’s just scamming his supporters like he always has.
I think that’s just fine!
70 million Americans. That’s a lot dough $
Yes indeed that’s what I keep saying there’s a lots of money in trump’s pocket hey if trump can get it great take their money just don’t take my I am poor not rich like trump’s maga
He scams them with his “Election defense fund” and his imbecile supporters still defend him.
Whole universe smh.
Trump is the “Shame” of America and is Acknowledge internationally….
They cuddling him like a 5 year old who’s pet turtle died.😂😂😂
An obese turtle flailing helplessly in the burning sun.
well mitch does look sick “fingers crossed”😁
It’s pathetic how no one stands up to him!
unfortunately, his pet turtle is still alive and well in the Senate.
Trump has a big debt that becomes due soon. He’s in big trouble.
Trump is trying to sell a Trump helicopter for a million dollars. He’s broke.
So this is a sucker fund, hmmmm that sounds like him.
