    1. @David Hansen how am I back paddling I didn’t say you were wrong about Democrats I simply pointed out that republicans do the same thing as democrats which you said as well and your the one assuming I support these parties I could support the reform party and to support them I most be an American which your also assuming I could live in Germany or Any country for that matter the possibilities are endless so like I said keep up the good hate my friend

    2. @R Patrick Holguin this your country was NEVER NEVER united in the first place. Divided states of America where there is no justice for the black and latinos.AMERICA WILL FALL BABYLON WILL FALL

    1. @Jerrodmod even you know that’s a lie. But ..way to prove you are a brainwashed indoctrinated sheep parroting propaganda from your echo chamber. See…I used all of your trigger words but the only ones that are those things are you people in lockstep with the GOP

  1. Hope that Rep. Meijer keeps save and also his family. But from the Netherlands to see the US in fall is heartbreaking

    1. It was already in fall before Trump was elected … that was the reason he became elected ….
      I do not like Trump, but Pelosi tried 25th amendment, is not possible. She is just a creep like Trump … but you love her of course …

    2. @Laika24102007 “You love her of course”

      Leave the hyperbole to the Republicans, please. It’s enough right now to acknowledge Trump needs to go; don’t need to take shots at Christie when we’re on the same side here. Chill

    3. We will be fine here in the ol USA don’t worry. If we end up with a hitler you can come over an liberate us sheep. We just elected a new president. The media makes coin off of fear, so don’t worry over there.
      our democracy isn’t no more in decline than your fear.

    1. @Mike Hall well it is the Republicans promoting violence and telling you that it’s the others. Just because you have been brainwashed to believe an easily proven lie doesn’t mean the rest of us are as gullible as you. Thank God we are not. We see you for the divisive indoctrinated sheep that you are

  2. His constituents must have called and texted him to vote yes. That’s the only and only reason. If they had said otherwise, he wouldn’t have voted yes!

    1. It’s a hard decision because he knows this will affect his re-election. Integrity is doing the right thing even when you know it will hurt you. It’s what a true Christian does.

    2. That’s a pretty blind and baseless assumption of a person, we don’t know his life this a 3:56 min interview and anyone’s can say something they did was the “hardest decision to make” regarding the situation they are dealing with at the moment, this week my hardest decision was to throw away old food or try to see if I could still eat it, but 2 year ago it was if I could risk my life with a pregnancy or terminate it and try again later, you never know, let’s be kind, lets leave better comments, this is getting worst and worst so when someone does the right thing its good let’s hope for more good.

    3. Very unfair if you to say. This gentleman did something to take a stand….You or anyone else do not have the right to judge his life. I say, Well done Sir🙏

  3. President Trumps 3 second cameo in “Home Alone 2” will be deleted. Just when I thought things couldn’t get any worse!

  4. “It is important to expect nothing, to take every experience, including the negative ones, as merely steps on the path, and to proceed.”-Ram Dass

  5. “For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.” Matthew 23:12. I think it applies here.

  6. The majority of the Republican wants to talk about unity and moving on,but there is no moving on as long as they deny reality.

    1. They haven’t asked for unity for four years, now suddenly they want it.

      Nah, no thanks. A wound that isn’t clean doesn’t heal… it just becomes infected.

    1. BLM/ANTIFA. Is the example of cowering to the mob all summer long across this great nation. You are a blind coward devoid of situational awareness. The leftist socialist started the violence. I was at a grocery store when BLM/ANTIFA set fire to it under the guise of a peaceful demonstration. Wake sir you’re being played. That was the reference to being blind. Being a coward is in reference to seeing that our two party system requires conversation and compromise. Discussion from both sides without violence. You failed as a representative and as a man to not acknowledge the rabid violence of the leftist BLM/ANTIFA burning and looting. You have no credibility as a representative of the people. You won’t be getting my vote that’s for sure. It might only be one vote my friend but they add up in an honest system.
