    1. @VoteThem 0utRepublicans_gottago packing courts isn’t voter suppression? Joe bidens laptop doesn’t show corruption? Joe biden was called racist by his vp cause he’s pro segregation.
      You are indoctrinated.

    2. @VoteThem 0utRepublicans_gottago you are the hateful ones. You guys call anyone that disagrees with you white supremacists. It’s clear indoctrinated dehumanization. You are the party of hate

    3. @Robert Edwin House Maybe you should work on your text comprehension. I do not waste my time discussing trolls. EOD.

    4. @Mike MUC LOL then I’m sure that the people calling for revolution will keep the United States American and free instead of centrally planning the entire country like the soviets.

    1. @pichy techno sometimes it takes someone telling me I made a typo. I’m horribly dyslexic and use talk to text

    2. @TRUMPOCALYPSE SURVIVAL sorry to hear that.you can count on me to go over your texts or whatever don’t know if that’s even possible but viscerally wanted to help πŸ™‚

  1. When I saw that, hospitals have to ration care means they will have to allow older people to die, I cannot imagine having to be a doctor and nurse in this situation all because of the stupidity, arrogance and selfishness of so many not wanting to wear a mask.

    1. this has been the problem with people just focusing on the ‘death rate’ of COVID.. do they not realize that if enough people get sick of COVID and need health care, the health care system will be overwhelmed and that ultimately affects other patients with other illnesses…. not everyone has a personal helicopter that can fly you immediately to a hospital for personalized treatment like the POTUS can get…

    2. Remember, these are the same folks who kept crying about “death panels.” And claim to be “pro life.” i say, Trumpo the Clown is pro death.

  2. The Republican-QAnon Party is the party of Trump.
    Dismissing Reality as “Fake News” is a prerequisite for membership.

    1. @John Henry Holiday308 How do you figure African Americans, and by extension all non-white-skinned American residents, demonstrating and pleading for the same treatment afforded to white-skinned Americans by law enforcement is considered ‘fascism’?

      Rioters and looters are not protesters/demonstrators; they are selfish opportunists and/or naturally criminals not interested in the equal treatment of non-white Americans or are far-right accelerationists intent on promoting civil war or intent on smearing and discrediting the BLM movement. Very few are actual BLM participants who feel showing their frustrations in destruction is more effective and some embrace the moniker ‘BLM’ but are not officially affiliated with the global BLM movement (they are selfish imposters hijacking a legitimate movement including a former high-profile area organizer who was disavowed but still assumed the label ‘BLM’).

      How do you figure a group/’organization’ who started in Portland in 2007, which inspired/prompted the formation of similar groups in San Francisco, Boston, etc. (amounting to only about 3,000 active participants across the country), that soon after adopted the label ‘Rose City Antifa’ but was originally, literally, called the ‘ Ad-Hoc Coalition Against *Racism* and *FASCISM* ‘ considered ‘fascism’?

      To elaborate on Antifa, unlike the false rhetoric and propaganda you have consumed and adopted, which has been officially revealed as having been intentionally promoted and disseminated to support Trump’s intentionally fabricated rhetoric, all Antifa’s purpose is to provide a physical opposition to any white supremacist, bigoted white nationalist, Neo-Nazi, KKK, etc hate groups that demonstrate in the communities and nearby communities they have formed in, protecting those communities from the actions of those hate groups. But their most predominant activity is to expose those group’s activities on the internet, often doxxing individual members so that communities know such a person lives among them or an employer has a member as an employee. THAT’S IT. That is ALL they do.

      My wife’s sister has a nephew who participated with the ‘Ad-Hoc Coalition Against Racism and Fascism’ in 2007 in Portland against a neo-Nazi group that held a demonstration called ‘Hammerfest’. Although he moved before they formed as Rose City Antifa, he kept active on the internet exposing hate groups and has kept us informed on ‘Antifa’ activities. We also know three people on a social level who were or are involved with RCA when we lived and worked in Portland for 9 years. They are absolutely anti-fascist and they absolutely are community builders and supporters, not community destroyers. We know what they do and know the disinformation spread by Trump and Barr is absolutely, without a doubt, b.s..

      How can either one be considered ‘fascist’: people wanting _equal_ _rights_ and a group intentionally formed to oppose a fascist group and other future fascist groups/individuals (Milo, Richard, e.g.)?

    1. I HAVE THOSE RELATIVES IN THE DEEP SOUTH WHITE-EVANGELICAL WORLD WHO EGOICALLY STRUT AND BRAG THAT THAT IS A “JESUS-LIKE VIRTUE,” AND YET, CHRIST-LIKE, THEY ARE NOT, TRUMP IS NOT. LET JUSTICE REIGN.

    2. @35nomoon Correct. Is it 50 years of Limbaugh? scaring listeners and then Fox and their alarmism. Breitbart and InfoWars on top of that. All in the name of ‘entertainment’.

    3. @Tobby 999 Vote for America by voting for corrupt, progressive, socialist! Good luck on that sales pitch. There are so many out there that are not as blind and ignorant as you. Go take a ride across the country. Once you leave California and before you get to NY, it is “Trump-Pence” the whole way. Get your tissue ready.

    4. @Dane Mart Covid-19 is going to be Your Master Trump’s downfall. But you still have Time to get one more Lick of his Boot. 🀣

    1. These grifters are bush era republican scum. Why you’d want them involved in anything is beyond me unless you’re ok with more Murican war crimes like in Iraq.

    2. They need our ongoing support…I feel the Lincoln Project is a more amenable place for coalition-minded moderates who are offended by the extremes within the Democrats and Republicans.

    1. I think we will set a record this year for the number of republican’s voting against republicans – at this point, I would vote for clinton, who I hated, to avoid voting for the orange blight

  3. Mr. Lincoln must be turning in his Grave Trump cult destroyed the Republican party what loss for America what happened to Integrity

    1. @Joseph McGourty so you have said the same thing three times now with no substance. You’re a joke kid.

    2. @Rusty Shackleford Lets start with the McCain/Palin campaign of 2008. A very large segment of the GOP voters were more passionate about Sarah Palin than they were McCain. Most of those voters joined the Tea Party. McCain and establishment republicans were now considered too centrist and not far enough right by the Palin devotes. Then DJT comes along and those very same voters become rabid in their support for him. He panders to the farthest right wing of the electorate and basically forces the establishment to make excuses for his worst behavior.. A small group of lifelong republicans reject him and form the Lincoln Project. Several lifelong journalists like George Will and Charles Krauthammer reject DJT. Several retired 4 star Admirals and Generals publicly say that they will not vote for him. 481 former national security advisers pen an open letter saying that he is endangering the country. Now, certainly he has a very strong following including my own sister, but many voters who never voted for a democrat in their lives are voting for Biden. Watch the 60 minutes segment they did about the Lincoln Project. The forming members of the project , including Steve Schmidt kind of spell it all out.

    3. @born ectomorph live mesomorph lincoln project is tiny compared to walkaway movement. Many Democrats mayors endorsed trump.
      Trump appeals to far right? You guys call anyone pro america far right. Anyone that doesn’t agree with you is a white supremacists. Like 50 cent is now a white supremacist. Trump has more support now than ever before and a massive approval rating in the republican party far beyond joe bidens approval in Democrats. Trump’s is like 98% or something it’s crazy. There have been plenty of people rejecting Democrats and have been red pilled.

    1. @John Henry Holiday308 his inaction caused the death of 226,000 people to date!! Are you naturally thick or are you working really hard at it?? You’ve clearly got your brains plugged into Fox News 24/7 so there’s really no point …Good bye, don’t let the Covid bite you…

    2. @Carine Zitella
      Trump did plenty to contain the Coronavirus. I research my news from many different sources and do my own research. Surly you have not

    3. @John Henry Holiday308 what did he do then?? And please do not list the travel ban…Trump called the virus a Democrat hoax, said it would be 15 cases that would soon go to zero, that it will magically disappear just like a miracle, he carried on doing rallies in Feb and and March whilst the warning signs were red, then finally recognised there was an issue when the stock market crashed mid March…if you’re doing so much research, have you even listened to the tapes made by Bob Woodward at the beginning of the year with Trump ? Against all recommendations and advise from his staffers, Trump blabbed for 18 hours to Woodward telling him he knew how dangerous and contagious the virus was and the fact that it was airborne. That’s how stupid and arrogant Trump is, he goes on tape admitting he in fact lied to the American people by downplaying the dangerousity of the virus. So stop defending that monster, there’s nothing to defend and normal, decent, empathetic, humane Americans know that. You’re evidently not amongst those Americans

    1. @Kepler Mission Speaking of people that never listen….where is Trump’s infrastructure plan and healthcare plan? LMAO it’s been four years

    2. @Mandy The Dems are not friends of the poor but if you’re middle-class or higher, farming, South Carolina … then you’ll have a wonderful life with Joe Biden. It’s just that as Trump never helped swing-states or blue-states, so Joe cannot help the red states. If you’re in a blue state and Joe wins, you’ll be happy.

    3. @Kepler Mission Every time you reply to me with more BS and attempt to spread misinformation, I am going to fact check you and provide reputable resources for anyone reading the comments. I do not find ignorance or traitors amusing.

  4. Like I’ve said, day 1; Donald Trump is not a Republican. Real Republicans are not represented by this president.

    1. @Bradley Gleason Trump WAS a Democrat for a long time. He just knew that Republicans were primed for a con-job. And thanks to their Tea Party, they were. Not a far stretch from Evangelical to Trumpism. They just changed the name of their cult.

    2. @Bradley Gleason You sound like a terrible , Russian troll.. Real Americans don’t evaluate each others worth via a political party.

    3. magichwoo I can respect that,,,,,,I can not come close to expressing the dismal , terrifying , anxiety that grips me as I keep track of American crisis and election information!!!sick of others kicking American citizens while they are down!!We the people of the world need America to get help getting up off her knees!!! America must stand tall and shine like a lighthouse across the sea of despair the whole world is in!!!!,,,,,,,,,,,,just this once , ” real republicans ” must pick the least of the evils and vote for Biden,,,,,,assuming you all don,t usually see eye to eye with democrats?…..Trump is a murderous monster ,,,you can not possibly consider him e “real leader ” of your Republican Party anymore,,,,,too much,,,,mabey not too late to save hundreds of thousands of lives , in America and across North America,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Canadian citizens are standing by with goodwill towards all our American brothers and sisters! β€οΈπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έβ€οΈπŸŒβ€οΈπŸŒβ€οΈπŸŒŽβ€οΈπŸ’™πŸ’™πŸ’™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ’™πŸ’™πŸ’™

    4. Well, that’s nice, but the GOP still gave him the nomination. It indicates it was the best they had to offer, which is not a healthy sign of whatever’s been going on within the party.

    1. @Wisconsin Man I have no idea who are you are you could be male or female you can be a bought from China Iran even Russia your levels of ignorance showing. It’s more than 1% I think it’s closer to 21%. I don’t know anyone better off than they were six years ago unless you’re a millionaire family. Living in poverty. added 11 million unemployed. Humanitarian or authoritarian it’s your choice live in a dictatorship. Were you expelled drop. Are never even attended High School thank you for your comment learn some history. Have a great day

    2. @Brad Miech Try common sense you…. 21%? What’s 21%? I think you work fr Fake News, just can’t figure out if it’s CNN or MSNBC. You are a LIAR through and Through if you really think NO ONE is better off than 6 years ago. 57% know they are better off. The people I KNOW, who has a business, has a good paying job ALL say they are better off than 4 years ago. So is Trump a dictator NOW or is he wanting to be one? A week after he was sworn in he somehow was a Dictator. He was a “dictator” when he shut down travel from China, then FF a few months he didn’t do anything, but, Dictators MAKE everyone do what they want. You people are insane. Oh, and try and earn how to write comments. Spelling. WOW.

    3. @Ashley Paulsen Hmmm seems you have ZERO PROOF to dispute what i said or you would and say, SEE this is the proof. But NADA.

    4. @Wisconsin Man learn some history do some research. 62 million millionaire families in this nation that’s 20% facts Google yourself stop watching Fox News. Research yourself don’t take my word for it. I shall not respond to your ignorant statement again have a great day. You work for the government? Leech on Society. I respect your comment did you graduate from Harvard like Jared who’s your daddy paid $2000000 to get him enrolled. Just facts my friend have a great day.

    5. @Brad Miech Facts? What facts? So 1/5th of ALL AMERICANS are Millionaires? WOW… Well good thing THEY pay YOUR taxes then. We knw people like you pay a negative tax and get huge refunds back. What a Loser and a Whiner. Oh that’s right 47 year Politician Joe is NOW got the answers to fix everything. What sheep.

    1. @Joseph Mason hate to break it to you…..naww never mind, scattering your delusion might just send you over the edge. I don’t want your mom to be upset

    2. LOL You guys are so much alike. “The Dems are a cult of personality at this point. They stand for nothing but Obama and identity politics” Literally a comment every other lines in 2014.

    3. @Robert Edwin House Certainly far better quality than today.
      At least they had the decency to push the “America First”agenda, and do it.

    1. they can’t possibly … bc trumpism is just extension of modern conservatism.
      3:43 “good republicans” <-- delusional oxymoron (both she and scarborough are clinging to a "tribe" that hasn't existed in their lifetime.) steven stewart wrote "It Was All A Lie": he wrote "I believed it was true. I would have been the guy working for Maddoff believing we were 'killing' the market" don't believe people who still believe bs

  5. The fact that he just passed an Executive Order making it easy to fire non-politically appointed government workers is SCARY. Now he can just fire anyone that doesn’t agree with him. If he is re-elected, this will DOOM this country!!
