  1. Failure is one of Trump’s primary talents and people died because of trump’s negligence or depraved indifference leading to homicide.☹️

    1. @Flummoxed Marmoset he is convincing weak minds while he is inebriated. You don’t expect better? As long as he is telling you what your itchy ears want to hear then it doesn’t really matter too folks like you.

    2. People are dying while Trump does absolutely nothing. He’s a stinking dumpster fire and simultaneously taking America down with him.

  2. Trump’s the only president in the history of the country as a One Term, Impeached and lost the Popular Vote twice.

  3. Nicole, You seem on the verge of tears not only for John McCain, but for our service people and having to listen to that foolish man in the Oval Office.

    1. @M owler The US is all that is standing in the way of Putin taking the Baltic states, the Balkan states and Eastern Europe.

    2. @Win Big with Lena & Mike Good attempt at spelling, but failed again. There’s only one cult drunk on the kool-aid, fella. Let me give you a hint, it’s not 2/3 of the country, probably a whole lot less now. I’m curious as to how many people out there still think like you, maybe just his most hardcore followers, dwindling every day.

  4. The Republican party is now an instrument being played by racist and Putin. The few hold outs might consider moving on.

    1. I think it’s telling that Pompeo has been shunned by foreign leaders, even in Turkey, whilst seeking meetings. It’s the way the Russians are treated. The Trump administration is treated with the same disdain as Putin’s. They’ve only tolerated Trump out of the past respect directed toward the US. They don’t have to do it anymore.

    2. @Robotic Cynic Would Reagan get on with Putin? I doubt it. Putin would never have allowed the wall to come down.

  5. The Republican party is like a cockroach. It’s somehow survives the barrage of being stepped on repeatedly.

    1. It’s hard to understand how many people voted for him after all his selfishness and disregard for the people who died in vain due to his ineptness at handling the virus. The only explanation is that they are just like him.

  6. There’s only one person in the White House that needs to be fired right away guess who that is put
    him into a straitjacket after that

  7. Donald Trump understanding the concept of service.
    Isn’t that a joke.
    Donald Trump is like a toddler. Everything and everyone revolves around him.
    How can any human being have been raised to be so miserable??

  8. Republicans gave him the lead way. It’s not just Trump. Blame the whole Cult Party. I got more sense than that, not to resolve a treaty. What does America stand for. Nothing to Trump. It’s supplying him EGO.

    1. And it came to pass, like a kidney stone, that the GOP was dismantled because they backed Trump over the Constitution.

  9. And it came to pass, like a kidney stone, that the GOP was dismantled because they backed Trump over the Constitution.

  10. I can’t believe how many ppl voted for trump. He has poisoned the country. Putin must be very happy his candidate is doing nastrovia!

  11. How true. The Republicans are so spineless just collecting tax payers funded checks and perks. Disgusting, disgraceful and deplorable!

    1. He’s installed his gangster sedition puppets in the only positions that can charge him. (And as Mueller tells us, you don’t indict a sitting president.)
