'New Low': Army Veteran Hits Trump Over Russian Plot Against Troops | MSNBC
Democrats tried. Senate Republicans refuse to remove him.
@Elizabeth Ayres dream on
@George Cass I don’t have to dream. Pelosi has been fantastic!
@Elizabeth Ayres oh sure 0 for 2 in hearings oh what a fabulous job
Good
@George Cass Oh goody I bet that would be so peaceful and wonderful with those lunatics in charge.
Yes Trump did commit treason against the United States and people military soldiers.
And you know how?
@Mark bodman Yes, he did, shitforbrains. Treason is technically “giving aid & comfort to the enemy in a time of war.” And we are in a cyber war with Russia.
Moron
Well you guys sure grabbed onto fake news and ran with it didn’t yet
@Martenson Lee <------ MORON
I like draft dodging presidents that don’t get caught doing absolutely zero about the troops being on a Russian hit list.
Treason – yes. He is a traitor. Why is this not enough to get rid of him immediately?
@camjamsdad Exactly, you do not listen to fake news, haven’t we heard enough? impeachment, Russian collusion etc give me a break, Trump is going nowhere, just because of haters millions and millions adore him that is why he will have another term.
It is the chickens coming home to roost. Trump is a puppet. He is inescapably tethered to power and influence. There are frightening agendas and sinister ideologies at play. Observe the current situation. Think about countries the US has wreaked the same havoc upon. It instigates political interference, orchestrates societal division, and promotes civil disruption. Then comes the fall of democracy and war. Ignore the rhetoric about building walls and strengthening the military. The US has been compromised and Trump is the ultimate Insider Threat. He and his treasonous Republicans have sold out the American people. They are and have been actively dismantling America’s defences.
Gotta go
He’s perfect. Just ask him and Fox
@P. R.
Please, no matter how much we hate the abhorrent orange traitor and his corrupt republican cronies, remember that WE KNOW __or at least are supposed to know better__ and consequently behave like the civilized and decent CITIZENS and HUMAN Beings here. Pointless and violent revenge and especially cruelty SHOULD NOT exist in a civilized society……
Trump is so dangerous to this country people lives
@Indi Pillai You are correct
@Indi Pillai I made this statement a year ago this have only become horrific since.
why?
Just this country?! He is making slaughters abroad possible!
@Firstname Lastname I agree
“There’s probably other stories we don’t even know about.” Can I get an Amen from the congregation? 🙏🏾
AMEN
Yeah probably lots more fake stories, the deluded media never stop.
@Greg Smith Yes, Amen from me…FU Greg Smith. I see that you have been drinking the POS…err POTUS cool aide that he is distributing…but he cannot deliver on his own because his ‘bone spurs’ …you know ..the ‘bone spurs’ that he used to dodge the draft into Vietnam …for five years…prevents him from walking…oh wait!!! I saw him walking on a Fox news broadcast…..his ‘bone spurs’ must have been cured….may the POS never set foot in Arlington National Cemetery or any other National Cemetery or any place of honor where American Veterans are buried…but the POS could not care…he never even talked to Putin about the bounties on American troops.. yea, drink the POS’s cool aid…and this is from a past Republican and also an Army Vet….I would not vote for that POS in a million years…the f coward…
Yes…amen from me…Greg Smith…FU…I see that you are drinking the POS …errr..POTUS …cool aide that he distributing…..but he cannot deliver on his own because his ‘bone spurs’, the ‘spurs’ he used to dodge the draft in Vietnam, prevents him from walking..oh wait!!! I saw him walking on a Fox News just fine…his ‘bone spurs’ must have been cured…may the POS never set foot in Arlington National Cemetery or any other place of honor…
CXCIX 199 amen
Hopefully soon the orange man will have a matching orange jump suit with his prisoner number on the back of it, “666”
and eat dry cheese sandwiches with orange jello and orange Kool aid the rest of his rotten life.
But Obama wore a tan suit, and one time he asked for Dijon mustard on his hamburger. Thanks to the GOP we don’t have to deal with those kind of outrages any more.
Gwen Robinson Oh snap!!
They just pass them round in their echo chamber because it makes them feel good about themselves
@camjamsdad Your list of “scandals” is pathetic.
@camjamsdad Deflections refer to something you or your supporters talk about in an effort to avoid real issues. So I can only conclude that, Hannity and Fox News must have been Obama supporters.
1000000000000 high fives….!!!!!!
I’m just trying to understand when are people are going to wakeup regarding this administration no caring for the people I’m just saying
Of course, he cares! make America great again! stop believing the biased media, this story is fake like all the others!
Detrimental from start
So grateful more people are finally seeing the trump for who he really is…what he is capable of. We The People are sick of the cult leader.
Old Orange Bone Spur really did it this time, he would do America a favor if he would resign, NOW!!!
How many times have people asked “Can he get any lower” or “How low can he get” There obviously is no low point for him so I’ve stopped asking the question.
He has to resign.He has put our troops and troop allies in danger.
He won’t resign. We’ll have to fire him in November. And it will feel so good.
I’m praying for that to happen, but he’s never held accountable for his treasonous acts and negligence. Never. It seems like this is just another talking point for the media.
Wonder which option Trump is going to choose:
American lives vs. Russian money?
American lives. This is fake news like all the others. Like Trump needs money, he doesn’t even take a wage as President. He has enough money to live 10 lifetimes..Go to the ‘walk away’ movement on youtube where deluded lefties are moving to the right and realise they have been played by the media.
@Ronny Ribs how do you know how much money he’s got have you seen his tax returns?? And he very good at going bankrupt.
But you’re right it’s not about the money he just wants to be best buddies with Putin. Remember he fell in love with Kim. Russia hacked both parties but they only released the democrat stuff. Makes you think. Oh sorry I forgot for a moment Maga Hats don’t think.
Who needs nuclear weapons when you have a Trump & a Mitch in your pocket?
Trump Tower Moscow
Count Davis Yep! That is his plan.
Lyn S Well spoken!
The Republicans are still behind him 100% since they’re not losing money in ignoring treason
Nixon: War on drugs
Bush: War on terror
trump: War on the US
Well said sir, well said !
Sad but true smh
The war on drugs was Reagan. It followed the Betty Ford center
No ‘Make America great again’ remember?
You, war on white people. Would never add a bame President, would you? Mugabi?
I appreciate that this war veteran expresses his disgust and outrage about vile, corrupt, criminal DJT…..I have NEVER called him president, and never will
tesla H: I only say, It, orange potato or POS POTUS. I will never say, write, think of any other name than what I mentioned.
tests H, yes ! Yes ! And yes! I’m with you, 👍
@Charles aka Medijine Time
Benedict Donald, has a ring to it!
When are we gonna acknowledge as real Americans that trump is an enemy of the state???
We have a traitor within our country he has sold us out.
the democrats IMPEACHED TRUMP! they are blameless in this nightmare! this is ALL ON REPUBLICANS
