  1. Omg I love this so much!!! Whenever i’m having a hard day (of which there have be many especially of late) this is one of my go to comfort movies!❤️❤️❤️

  2. 100% agree. My grandson is 11 and even with very limited exposure to DT45, he can see he is a bad man. He is 11 and autistic, and he can tell…

    1. @Lionel Di Martino 200000 deaths, from what? Covid? Thank your democrat masters. Remember how they were screaming xenophobia when trump wanted to suspend travel to affected countries? How about when pelosi downplayed it in the beginning saying it would be like the flu, and urging people to get out? How about Cuomo sending covid patients to retirement homes, and selling off government bought ventilators? Orwhen feinstein and her friends started selling off stock like crazy as soon as they got word of the situation, instead of informing the public, because they knew the economy was gonna take a dump. These same democrats are locking their cities down, yet they still go go to salons and dine inside restaurants not abiding by the same rules they enact for their peasants. They obviously don’t care about the citizens because they encouraged the spread of covid for their own political gain, blaming trump for problems they have generated, while telling ignorant masses that if they vote blue it will all stop. You all have Stockholm syndrome.

    1. @Felix Ndayis de Bologne republicans freed the slaves… democrats fought to keep them enslaved. All that really needs to be said. Btw idk how you expect that link to help you if i don’t have access to see the information in it.

    2. You will not energize our base when you disenfranchise Progressives just like when Clinton bought the party in 2016. Bloomberg bought Biden and put lobbyists in the DNC, so this is 2016 all over again with Progressives staying home. You could have called this during the Convention last year. Nothing has changed. This civil war talk is crap. The Middle class just wants to go back to work. Where was the rule of law and Constitution with that Clinton Putin dossier and Vindman nonsense?

    1. well..the ones pitting us all against each other are your ppl the dem’s…and
      cmon u know it…we only asked you to try…the rodents left just over
      3 yrs ago after digging holes in the white house and congress for 8yrs.
      and not long back further with [rapist] clinton? u call that happy times…
      fun is for politics….dirty should not be…easy to see by killer rioters
      who is hateful… really try think…stick with mr trump to help fix…or swamp
      and …this many like comments…no way…again dirty at work

    2. How did Corrupt Con artist Cruz the Canadian born get to be an American Politician . Oh! Corrupt Racist Cowardly America

    3. @Rickey Francisco Im racist against Canadians just because of Ted Cruz. He makes me want to build a wall in the north to keep out those damn maple drinking snow backs✊😑

    4. @gary c The dems arent my people, im a libertarian. Trump is a draft dodging traitor that has seriously weakened relations with our allies we have had since WWII while sucking up to Dictators. It is obvious to anyone with half a brain that he doesnt care about American lives, the constitution or anything besides him self and maybe a few members of his family.

  3. We now know for a fact that Trump knew that Covid “spread through the air.” His words to Bob Woodward in a phone-taped conversation. He knew. Genocide.

    1. @Dominus Vobiscum
      Oh shoot man that one was wrong , I was thinking we we are in 1960.
      Sorry , I still got covid-19 in my brains. 🤯

    2. @William Shatner William shatner is a great man. You sir, or ma’am.. or whatever the f*** you identify as.. are a complete loser 💩bag..
      That is All!

  4. Rob Reiner is a genius and every word he says here is spot on. Yes, we need to remain furious over this criminal mishandling of our lives! Thanks to the whole cast, rock on and let’s get this thing done already, history will be smiling on us ! It’s no coincidence that “Hamilton” premiered this year. The founding fathers are looking on us and cheering us on !

    1. @Sean Hovan clueless is as clueless does. The only party continuously reminding its citizens of the founding fathers and what beliefs this country was founded on is the democratic party shawn. The truth will come out once we flush the turd on Nov 3rd and the investigations begin – with witnesses either testifying or put in jail. Enjoy your last couple months with hate in the White House.

    2. @Bill Clark oh the same party that doesn’t believe in the freedom of speech and the freedom to peacefully assemble?

      The same party that hates capitalism and the 2nd amendment?i

    3. @Sean Hovan So you think confederate traitors, were the fouding fathers. When You’re old enough to start school, ask to be taught history.

    4. @Sean Hovan Yes Republicans are against freedom of speech and peaceful assembly. Trump has passed more 2nd amendment restrictions than any president. The last person to attack 2nd amendment rights was Republican Ronald Reagan. But its hilarious how you agree so much with Democrats, you have to fabricate things to oppose.

    1. So ,….Hiding Biden is going to visit Jacob Blake’s (Nation Of Islam-Pink Toe Jews) Racist Family. WHY isn’t he going to visit the poor girl Jacob Blake penetrated- RAPED..???

    1. @Luc Bac Or, he like many of us, didn’t watch the movie, apparently the least funniest, least successful of Brooks’ comedies. Ever think about that, brain trust?

    2. @tinwoods
      A troll is a troll, and a toll is a toll.
      An if I don’t pay his toll then he gets no rolls.
      So I refuse to pay a troll toll!.

    1. Why on earth would we ever vote Blue? So the dems can encourage more riots? So they can encourage more films like Cuties? No thanks.

    1. David Poynter – because of the extraordinary cheating that will happen… it was so clear during George W Bush that they cheated in key districts (with voting machines) and went on to call Florida and Ohio, when they were very much in play.

    2. Trump is a Traitor. The GOP Senate Intelligence report called a Trump and his Administration the greatest National Security threat in America’s history. Please read it. This isn’t opinion and feeling facts. Grow up.

    1. BigBadJerry Rogers That’s your opinion. What exactly are you referring to as far socially progressive anyway?

    2. testticklehead Just because the popular vote went to Hillary in 2016 means nothing. Not every eligible voter voted. Besides, I wasn’t referring to conservative as politically conservative necessarily.

    3. @Dominus Vobiscum Democrats still have not been prosecuted for election fraud for 2016 Clinton Putin dossier. CNN still has not apologized. Clinton has not apologized for buying the DNC, filling it with lobbyists and disenfranchising Progressive voters. Biden/Harris punch down on the little guy.

  5. Ted Cruz? Isn’t that the guy who’s dad helped assassinate JFK? I think I heard that, but can’t remember where from. Hmmm….

  6. I’m scared people don’t understand how bad the situation is. Sometimes I just wanna turn it all off til November the 4th
