  1. The _only_ thing this guy has been successful in is _pretending_ to be a successful mogul on television. Everything else he runs straight into the ground, including this country.

    1. YES I AGREE, I AM VOTING TRUMP. THAT IS GODS CHOICE, HE PUT TRUMP HERE TO TAKE DOWN THE SWAMP AND HE’S DOING IT.

  2. My followers don’t care. They will always believe in me. My poorly educated followers will always support me . I’m giving them as much Kool-aid as I can so they don’t abandon me. No prison time for me.

    1. Remind Congress to help control the pet project population, have your lobbyists AND special interest groups spayed or neutered.

    2. @Eric Burkheimer 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂OMG. Im rolling here. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

  3. When Biden would laugh about Trump being a Billionaire. Trump will tick out going full blown crazy.
    Showing on camera his full narcissistic personality disorders.
    Talk with a psychologist to look for the buttons to press to get him over the edge on camera tho show who he really is.
    Just my opinion as a European who just doesn’t want a fascist US dictatorship.
    Call him open what he is a fraud.

    1. @Johnny one You lot are like a rotten apple spoiling all the rest. It’s time for the rest of us to boot the rotten apple out the barrel.

    2. @Tangible Mammal Read Madeline Albright’s book from 2017: Fascism a warning
      25 of her family where killed in the holocaust but that’s not the issue here the issue is how Facism works by dividing people by giving opportunities for psychopaths and by creating sociopaths by indulging people into a doctrine that mainly blames other people. That shuts the group members up from discussion and other arguments.
      Actually it was like a cult look at Nazi Germany and especially Göbbels speach where he asks the crowed: Do you want total war ? They reply cheerful yes
      That’s no better than any cult like Scientology or fundamental Christian and Islamic groups they are all problematic.
      Each religious war was and is problematic and especially each genocide.
      Look the 2008 German movie the: The Wave
      Based on the same book by Tom Strasser
      We Germans are get our history classes and talk about the past to prevent fascism to happen again and believe it or not it is totally normal to visit ex nazi concentration camps as a part of history class.
      Fascism started with Mussolini and was always autocratic by getting the justice system to prosecute for political reasons. There where political prisoners in concentration camps marked by a red even sided upside down red triangle like Trump accidentally used in one tweet against the unorganized group antifa.
      That is a abbreviation for Anti fascist..
      Coincidence there are way to many co incidents starting with Trump’s fathers arrest in a KKK demonstration about 1918 in New York.
      And as I stated I didn’t think this US president would help liberate Europe from the Nazis because the British and French etc lost at the beginning.
      It is more likely he would side with the strong and power German leader like he did with North Korea, Saudi Arabia after chopping up a permanent US citizen, Turkey , and Russia.
      Why because he wants to be like them and because he is desperate looking for corrupt money.
      Private bone spurs has as a narcissistic sociopath and life long con man no empathy at all that’s the reason he didn’t got why people died for their country in the military.

    3. @Pointless Matter the reason was by thanking all US citizen in my reply to him that the US would probably sided with Hitler in world war 2 because the early victories where on the German side.
      This should start a thinking process in his mind and anyone who is in the cult and have some doubts…
      But I am actually thankful for not serving duty on the Chinese wall as the border to Japanese occupied China when history may have taken another path.
      I love the Japanese culture and I feel ok with the German past except this special chapter in history but we have better things to contribute to the world than war.

    4. @stee with2ees I totally agree as Swabian (German from the southwest known for being stingy like the Scots) we have more to be proud of Einstein any many innovative companies in our area.
      Like Mercedes, Bosch, Festool,Festoo, Metabo,Fein to name a few but especially also for Arthur Fischer , Google him see him speak in a video this inventor represents every value down in the southwest. And he is was a decent absolutely grounded men who looks like the perfect grandfather in his older days. After some years you can read the character in peoples faces 😉

    1. @Gary Campbell It’s very un American of you to be against Liberalism considering Liberalism is a political and moral philosophy based on liberty, consent of the governed and equality before the law. That’s as American as it gets. You sound Anti American like you would rather live in an oppressive tyrannical dictatorial society.

    2. @President of the Virgin Islands : Lose the utopian BS ! That’s exactly the kind of crap that WILL get Trump re elected.

    1. goe1punk nothing in your list was disproven; he used Barr, the corrupt republican congress and his presidential powers to get away with it. You are supporting a crook

    1. @Heather11268 Asshat supporter–…You’re confused as to the use of the word “your”….”But–…..BUT OBAMA!!”🤪😂🤣 lol!

    2. @princessbuttercup ! Harmon “For those who believe no explanation is necessary and for those who do not believe no explanation is possible”.🤦‍♂️

    1. THEY DONT YOUR ON MSNBC CHANNEL, ONLY THE UNEDUCATED OR THOSE WITH LEARNING DISABILITIES WATCH THIS NONSENSE. GET OFF THIS CHANNEL, RUN. YOUR ALREADY STARTING TO BELIEVE THEIR LIES.

    2. because they are smart and use the tax laws like the were written, perfectly 100% legal, do it yourself idiots, you can just as will as they can

    1. Highly probable that he used only fake cows, check on the kangaroo, other marsupials–sloths? and hare populations….

    1. He, Ivanka, Kushner and Donald Jr could very well go to prison for a minimum of 5 years. They’ll be dining on Goya beans behind bars at a federal penitentiary. No golf in the yard.

    1. He’s like a rich man because he has rich tastes (except his suits). He, unlike a rich man, always needs somebody else to pick up the check for it.

  4. He’s NOT a Billionaire, he’s a fraud, an infomercial host peddling b.s. products and then putting his name of them!

    1. HES A BILLIONAIRE MANY TIMES OVER. HE MADE HIS MONEY IN CONSTRUCTION AND REALESTATE. JUST BECAUSE YOU DONT WANT HIM TO BE ONE DOSNT MAKE IT SO. GROW UP YOU CHILDISH, NASTY, FREAK.

    2. @Heather11268 you Poor Poor pathetic Cultists. The Trumpvirus is a Pathological Liar!! He is Broke and We are Voting the Trumpvirus out and bury the trumpvirus under all those Blue Ballots. Vote Too Big to Rig and Save America from this Pathetic Dictator! What a Reality Show Host Con Man!! You need to be Woke Up!! The Trumpvirus is a Criminal?

  5. His whole life is a Lie. It’s the same pattern, again and again: just like with his SAT test he paid someone else. He cannot Not Lie.

  6. I hear trump yelling, “it’s fake news – it’s fake news” as they drag him by his ankles to prison for tax evasion!

  7. How much intelligence is needed to understand that a person who hides his tax returns for so many years, is obviously involved in Tax Fraud…!!!…
