President Donald Trump Admits Discussing Joe Biden With Ukrainian Leader | Velshi & Ruhle | MSNBC
Criminals like the Orange Donorrhea don’t get better the longer justice is not served, they get bolder.😜
@Daisy Elmir
You are my sunshine!
@Rich Winder
Aww…thanks Rich. You made my day!!
You ALWAYS make me lmao.
🌼👍💌
😂😂😂😂donorrhea!!!
Donorrhea.. lol
trump thinks if he says he didn’t then we will think he did so if he says he did we’ll think he didn’t… 🤔
Kip McEwen shut up! You conspiracy idiots are so gullible when it comes to believing Trumps
@Jacquan Brown No, the conspiracy is Dems and the liberal media believing in Russian collusion nonsense for two and a half years and refusing to believe it was Obama and Hillary were both corrupt.
@Kip McEwen prove it
You are a certifiable nutjob.
Trump is a traitor. A lying criminal fraud. His Administration and the GOP have zero respect for the law and the Constitution…. cheating, lying, ducking the law…. cant win honestly….
@R S lol…. Trump just committed treason again, more collusion, and all you can do is say, “But Obama…”. If you cared about corruption you wouldnt defend it…. and fyi, I am not a democrat and I didnt vote for Obama…
@Kip McEwen What does Obama have to do with this?If I bring up the allegations concerning the Bushes that would make as much sense as you,none.
@Everblue Freediving , not a democrat or voted for him either. It’s just trying to choose which corrupt politician to vote for so many to choose from.
I say impeachment! Even if the Republican Senators block it the Democrats still are RESPONSIBLE for protecting this country even if they fail. Im so tired of the playing politics in this mess. Do your job grow a pair and get this man OUT NOW. WTF is there to discuss or consider smh
@Björn Björk look all another fake account with a russian pedigree.
@Björn Björk name should be bjorn bjerk russian asset, putin lackey like asset # 1 trump
@Björn Björk – the Federal Election Campaign laws, the laws against obstruction of justice, the laws against sharing classified info with foreign govts., TREASON, campaign finance laws, tax fraud (his fake charity, tax evasion (his fake charity, stealing from the US tax payers…………
ALL TRUE, MORON!!!
@rs ss It’s a lot easier to write that than to mount an argument. You’re dumb, ignorant, and lazy.
@Tomandtob So he broke ALLof the Federal Campaign laws, etc., etc.? Pretty vague. Like I said. You can’t cite one instance of a crime having been committed. Face it, you’re an ignorant person. If you’re talking about paying off two whores to keep their mouths shut, the John Edwards case out that one to bed, because it’s perfectly legal to do when it’s standard operating procedure for a person to settle potentially damaging issues caused by non-criminal acts, by paying to make them disappear. Mueller found zero instances of obstruction of justice. He has never been charged with tax fraud or evasion. Stealing what from U.S. tax payers? Again, you’re an ignorant person who still has not laid out ONE specific instance where he broke the law. By the way, do you and your boyfriend hang out with Neil and Bob?
The Ukraine leader was a comedian with an acting role playing a president. Trump is a president acting like a comedian.
@Michaela Francis very true. That’s why I watch Colbert and Meyers daily (when they deign to do a show that is) : )
@rachell smith In the our? confused as to who your pretending to be? It’s OK we know your a russian troll.
Just like he will release his taxes right
Ha Ha! The #FakeNews media and the demonKKKrats are being compared to Wiley E. Coyote! They keep hurting themselves instead of huring President Trump! http://patriotretort.com/whistleblowergate-detonates-over-the-wrong-target/
And the answer is yes. Yes, there’s enough evidence.
@Steve Xyz Always defending someone must be tiring. Give it up, he is gone
@Blasian Babies
Your a NitWit
@Medefending America against Godless, soulless left-wing nuts and their peanut gallery media isn’t tiring..
We can’t listen to a word Trump says! Trump doesn’t really want the phone call publicized! Remember when he said, he wanted everyone to see his taxes, and he couldn’t wait to talk to Mueller! The man cannot be believed!
Björn Björk Why don’t you look up how many other countries wanted that same prosecutor fired over his blatant corruption..?
Trump’s taxes are under audit. He will release when the audit is finished! Around 2050.
@Mark Hepworth Stop reading news articles which tell you what to think without explaining why you should think it. How can a whole country believe something about a person who they’ve never met, and who they know very little about? How is it that you now know that he was, “corrupt,” because you read the same talking point as the rest of the lemmings?
It wasn’t individual countries that didn’t like Shokin, and it certainly wasn’t their citizens. It was the EU’s UNELECTED politburo that wanted him removed because he was slow-walking the conversion of the Ukraine’s judicial system into the same nonsensical tolerance-for-everyone-who-agrees-with-us structure followed by the EU’s commie-conformity confederacy..
Barf Bag Billy Barr suddenly (and very conveniently) has a gun deal. President will sign IF … there will be strings. Democrats need to get the files from Deutsche Bank, from his accountants & from the I.R.S. and the unredacted complaint with unfettered access to the IG and his whistleblower. Make NO deals with this SOS … it will be with the devil.
Trump claims “no quid pro quo”… buuuuut… he also said he wanted them to “investigate the corruption the Bidens were causing” and “you don’t want to give money to a corrupt country”… so clearly the withholding of defense funds WAS connected to the demand regarding them investigating the Bidens… Trump said so himself.
@Björn Björk you need help man. Nobody has called for the removal of the second amendment. Quit watching fox news. It’s rotting your brain
@kristabella222 You’re delusional. Cite the clip where Trump admits that he asked Ukraine’s president about investigating Biden’s son. You can’t. What you’ve been told has been written down in transcript form so that Americans with a sixth-grade reading level will be duped.
Here is the exact quote”
“”We had a great conversation. The conversation I had was largely congratulatory, was largely corruption — all of the corruption taking place, was largely the fact that we don’t want our people, like Vice President Biden and his son, adding to the corruption.”
You see? His comment about the Bidens was a snarky jab at Creepy Joe and his coke-head, widowed-sister-in-law banging son.
CNN, Time, and MSNBC all think that you’re too dumb to figure it out, and so far, they’ve been correct.
Now go take a nap.
Remember now. The media are the people who helped elect trump, they gave him free publicity and dont think they didn’t know it!
Perhaps they feel guilty perhaps they are doing the bidding of their corporate masters.
@Garry Miller You don’t understand the concept of an analogy, do you?
Oh, and although the point wasn’t the Second Amendment, if you want to know who’d like to repeal it, here you go:

@Björn Björk bjorn bjerk the russian from troll school class of 2019
Has anyone asked how many other governments has Trump been soliciting for 2020 election aid?
@T.Kizer Söze yes you are right republicans are traitors and trump works for putin
@rs ss LOL. Delusional. Didn’t we already have an investigation about that? He didn’t collude with Russia according to the Mueller report
@T.Kizer Söze fake account russian troll
@rs ss LOL. That’s what happens when you don’t have a plausible argument. Click on my picture I made a video for dummies like you.
Here Benedict Donald goes again lying about his biggest political rival.
@Jordan Green russian troll
Hosea 4 King James Version (KJV)
4 Hear the word of the Lord, ye children of Israel: for the Lord hath a controversy with the inhabitants of the land, because there is no truth, nor mercy, nor knowledge of God in the land.
2 By swearing, and lying, and killing, and stealing, and committing adultery, they break out, and blood toucheth blood.
3 Therefore shall the land mourn, and every one that dwelleth therein shall languish, with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of heaven; yea, the fishes of the sea also shall be taken away.
4 Yet let no man strive, nor reprove another: for thy people are as they that strive with the priest.
5 Therefore shalt thou fall in the day, and the prophet also shall fall with thee in the night, and I will destroy thy mother.
6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.
7 As they were increased, so they sinned against me: therefore will I change their glory into shame.
8 They eat up the sin of my people, and they set their heart on their iniquity.
9 And there shall be, like people, like priest: and I will punish them for their ways, and reward them their doings.
10 For they shall eat, and not have enough: they shall commit whoredom, and shall not increase: because they have left off to take heed to the Lord.
11 Whoredom and wine and new wine take away the heart.
12 My people ask counsel at their stocks, and their staff declareth unto them: for the spirit of whoredoms hath caused them to err, and they have gone a whoring from under their God.
13 They sacrifice upon the tops of the mountains, and burn incense upon the hills, under oaks and poplars and elms, because the shadow thereof is good: therefore your daughters shall commit whoredom, and your spouses shall commit adultery.
14 I will not punish your daughters when they commit whoredom, nor your spouses when they commit adultery: for themselves are separated with whores, and they sacrifice with harlots: therefore the people that doth not understand shall fall.
15 Though thou, Israel, play the harlot, yet let not Judah offend; and come not ye unto Gilgal, neither go ye up to Bethaven, nor swear, The Lord liveth.
16 For Israel slideth back as a backsliding heifer: now the Lord will feed them as a lamb in a large place.
17 Ephraim is joined to idols: let him alone.
18 Their drink is sour: they have committed whoredom continually: her rulers with shame do love, Give ye.
19 The wind hath bound her up in her wings, and they shall be ashamed because of their sacrifices.
The fact no one is standing up to what trump is doing shows that this politician care about their jobs than doing the right thing for their country!
Cody Jarrett the US is no where near a 3rd world country. but yes we need to get trump out of office
@Carlos Cruz Latinos for president Trump2020! Out Of San Francisco..
Nah, it just means that politicians don’t have any evidence. If they did, then they would use the evidence to take over Trump’s job. Great job Wiley E. Coyote! http://patriotretort.com/whistleblowergate-detonates-over-the-wrong-target/
Put the acting DNI in jail.
Michael Stead for what stupid, for bringing America economy back to life best numbers in U.S, History!!!
@john knowing Stop lying, talk to Forbes.
https://www.forbes.com/sites/chuckjones/2019/09/20/trump-has-created-15-million-fewer-jobs-than-obama/#6a4402c427ce
You got punked by an orange liar… shame.
john knowing Actually, today’s economy isn’t the best in history, but it was doing better BEFORE Trump took over. He inherited every actual success he claims as his own from Obama.
knowing congratulations for the dumbest post on the internet.
Must be a reason for trumps treason, maybe greed is in season?
Yes, clearly, lifelong family greed. But it really comes down to his borderline IQ. He literally doesn’t have the mental capacity to consider what may work for or against him in the longer term. He is a barking dog. (No offense to man’s best friend.)
Yes, call him what he is: A TRAITOR!
obama is the Crook
The Trump formula:
1) I didn’t do it
2) Even if I did it, I did nothing wrong
3) I did it but I did nothing wrong
4) New crisis
Why don’t you ‘journalists’ point this out and do your job, you corporatist sycophants.
@Brian Wurch oh wow you’ve really fallen off you’re perch. Get back onto your meds, because it’s been proven tinfoil hats Don’t work.
@Björn Björk bjorn bjerk, russian troll here to spin lies and mis information for putin.
@Björn Björk fake account russian troll
I feel another Barr redaction coming on.
Yup, it sounds like Trump and Barr have already talked about it.
So—->its a political hack but all of a sudden he admits it?…..hmmmmmm
remember it was also “fake news” a few days ago…
Said it before, will day it again. ‘One lie is significant , a million lies is a statistic.’ – Joseph Trump.
Treasonous Trump and Moscow Mitch for PRISON!
Lock them up!
Lock them up!
Lock them up!
lock them up !
Firing squad would be cheaper and more humane, these animals are sick and need to be put down.
Lead by example you first.
Biden is literally Corrupt.
Actually the punishment for treason is death, period!!
The WH is probably now scrambling to alter the transcripts and tapes. They need a bit more stalling time.
The Nazi collaborator Barr is blacking the transcripts out with Trump’s sharpie.
