  1. The yes men are concerned about yes men coming into the administration? I can only imagine the level of his desperation.

    1. He wants a defense secretary,, that will back his use of military against u.s. citizens. A coup if you will. Say goodbye to democracy, thank a republican.

    2. @the truth He wants a defense secretary that will do whatever he says without question and take the blame for any legal issues that arise from his action or inaction. He wants a yes man that is also willing to be a fall guy.

    1. @Raging Monk – I’m neither a Republican nor a Democrat. There are literally pictures of Murphy with McCain and Oleh Tyahnybok…who is a far right ultra nationalist in Ukraine. I didn’t lie. Don’t you want to make your party better instead of allowing your leaders to do things in other nations that they condemn here?

    2. @rtorres81rc There are pictures of Don Rumsfeld with Saddam Hussein but if it is not viewed in prospective and context you can draw any hair brain conclusion you want.

    3. @Raging Monk – Donald Rumsfeld before or after the US helped Saddam use chemical weapons against Iran? I mean “the enemy of my enemy is my friend”…see?

    1. @Kimberly Galanti – I cant see how Chris, who used far right ultra nationalist for a coup in Ukraine, can be the one to help stop a coup here. Can you explain? Thank you

  2. Take him out of the White House now. They are acting as dictatorship and needs to removed of all jurisdictions and powers that be.
    The stupidity continues with his delusional insanity that dwells in his demented pea sized grey matter.
    Lunancy in charge.

    1. ⬆️ is this guy for real???? If so, we are in some serious trouble. Half the country is completely delusional.

      Seriously???? Evil blind peoples plot???? No effing way can you be serious. Do they even listen to their own lunacy?

      Ok, evil-bind, that doesn’t even make sense!!! You may as well have said “evil blind” lolololol!

    2. Trump, Barr etc should be arrested for this. Its equivalent to a cop wrongly accusing someone and then planting material to make their story work

    3. @DaughterZion Ros……. get a life . A life based in reality….hiding behind evangelical b.s. is a form of mental illness

    1. Trump will be in prison soon. Trust me. The government will not allow a security risk as unhinged as Trump to walk free. The only question is what charges will keep him locked up the longest. There are plenty to choose from. I say let New York have him. He can’t get pardoned from those charges, and Rikers Island is nice this time of year.

    2. All on Truth’s side know that Pres Trump won; ……..Mail-IN BALLOTS were evil-bind ppl’s plot to cheat on votes & to destroy Truth; …..COVID was an invisible evil territory fight/hoax to Fail heaven’s plan, just for Mail In Voters Fraud (Rev 12v12; 9v20; )……Heaven’s wrath Sword is Coming soon to Cut off all Lie speaking Tongues; (Proverbs 10v31;Isaih 34v5)🙏…..Modern Evil Haman’s plot will be destroyed by heaven ( Esther 7v6)…No evil-bind Goliath or Saul can destroy Heaven’s anointed David/heaven’s plan to bring Heavenly kingdom/Christ’s kingdom to earth ( Psalms 105v15)…Heavenly anointed ones are Heaven’s milestones, until Truth & justice/Heaven’s plan established on earth; Until Eden restored on earth ( Rev 21; )

    3. @DaughterZion Ros If Trump is the messiah, was Jesus orange? White nationalist populists believe he was white, science tells us he was black, but what if indeed he was orange?

  3. PLEASE MAKE SURE IF YOU LIVE IN GEORGIA PLEASE VOTE FOR THE SENATE RUNOFF IN JANUARY!!!!!!!!!💙💙 WE NEED TO WIN THE SENATE!!

    1. And if you don’t live in Georgia, you can donate to help Georgians,
      I did it today! Maryland Here💙😷😎

    2. All on Truth’s side know that Pres Trump won; ……..Mail-IN BALLOTS were evil-bind ppl’s plot to cheat on votes & to destroy Truth; …..COVID was an invisible evil territory fight/hoax to Fail heaven’s plan, just for Mail In Voters Fraud (Rev 12v12; 9v20; )……Heaven’s wrath Sword is Coming soon to Cut off all Lie speaking Tongues; (Proverbs 10v31;Isaih 34v5)🙏…..Modern Evil Haman’s plot will be destroyed by heaven ( Esther 7v6)…No evil-bind Goliath or Saul can destroy Heaven’s anointed David/heaven’s plan to bring Heavenly kingdom/Christ’s kingdom to earth ( Psalms 105v15)…Heavenly anointed ones are Heaven’s milestones, until Truth & justice/Heaven’s plan established on earth; Until Eden restored on earth ( Rev 21; )

    1. Stop responding to the bots/trolls. They see every response they get as a success or even get paid on this basis. Just ignore them.

    2. Romans tried to balance that power with a triumvirat, a head of state three people (until Caesar kinda… “convinced” them permanently to abandon that notion
      And to every victorious leader who held a triumphant evet there was this one man whispering over his shoulder: “memento mori”, “remember that you are mortal” (=implicit ‘and no god’)

      I could well picture that… 🤔

    3. @Andi_S so true. I simply report them as spam and move on. If more ppl reported these bots instead of answering them, we could have real conversations here instead of blatant insults

    1. When things were at their very worst:
      2 Suns, Cross in the sky, 2 comets will collide = don`t be afraid – repent, accept Lord`s Hand of Mercy.
      The first sign – the Earth will spin faster.
      The second sign concerns the sun, which will loom larger, brighter and begin to spin.
      Scientists will say it was a global illusion.
      Beaware – Jesus will never walk in flesh again.
      After WW3 – rise of the “ man of peace“ from the East = Antichrist – the most powerful, popular, charismatic and influential leader of all time. Many miracles will be attributed to him. He will imitate Jesus in every conceivable way.
      Don`t trust „pope“ Francis = the False Prophet
      – will seem to rise from the dead
      – will unite all Christian Churches and all Religions as one.
      One World Religion = the seat of the Antichrist.
      Benedict XVI is the last true pope – will be accused of a crime of which he is totally innocent.

      – banking collapse was deliberately masterminded by the Antichrist

      – Antichrist will step in and create a false peace in the state of Israel by joining them with palestine in an unlikely alliance.

      – „He will recite extracts from My Teachings, which he will passionately proclaim from every secular stage in the world, until people sit up and take notice of him.“

      https://mdmlastprophet.com/they-will-say-that-he-was-guilty-of-a-crime-of-which-he-is-totally-innocent/

    1. You think? Trump clearly has no loyalty, so pathetic. Forget being childlike, this is a man who his still trying to prove is worth to himself…where are OUR leaders. BTW, where’s his wife, daughter and SIL..they said, I’m outta here…

    1. @Lynn Rolaf Oops, my poor choice of words confused you. McConnell and Graham will block any attempt to pass legislation to rein in a lawless president like agent orange.

    2. @jim doe she is not a vp … YET!
      Using ‘she’ is rude .. The lady has a name and it is Vice President Elect Kamala Harris !🙌🙌🙌

    3. @alrighty ru its a Big delayed yet. The potus has the power now to cancel the election to bypass the fraudulent election by the courts he will have all the illegal ballots thrown out and remain president.
      Cry cry cry haaa

  4. This has gone beyond shameful and a grown man throwing a tantrum…..
    He’s destroying the fabric of our nation(democracy)….

    1. @jim doe so I’m giving him the benefit of the doubt and watched it. His analyses is either willfully or negligently inaccurate. People are flipping out on you tube with these pseudo science guys and their little screen charts that could be the recipe for mom’s apple pie. By his conclusions trumps votes are fraudulent too…so it’s back to the basement for this accountant and his little theories and graphs, and back to more pseudo science channels for you to get your daily dose of high blood pressure.

    2. @Anthony Goedhartapples n oranges last election no mail in vote crap and the laws were changed recently to benefit the dems mail vote nonsense..no verification needed for mail in voting. Anyone knows mail in voting is prone to major frauds

      call him up and instruct him to show him hows it done

    3. @DaughterZion Ros sure and he never lied nor violated or rights as americans and the children lost from their parents. God Will take up this battle and those who don’t believe will fear his wrath. Amen.

  5. Trump does not bother about National Security , he is concerned about himself only , a spoilt overgrown child

    1. @Cheryl Pounds Nope! They sending in their money to help pay his debts. These same people are going to the food banks, whining about stimulus checks (socialist program), and going to charities to pay their electric bill.

    2. All on Truth’s side know that Pres Trump won; ……..Mail-IN BALLOTS were evil-bind ppl’s plot to cheat on votes & to destroy Truth; …..COVID was an invisible evil territory fight/hoax to Fail heaven’s plan, just for Mail In Voters Fraud (Rev 12v12; 9v20; )……Heaven’s wrath Sword is Coming soon to Cut off all Lie speaking Tongues; (Proverbs 10v31;Isaih 34v5)🙏…..Modern Evil Haman’s plot will be destroyed by heaven ( Esther 7v6)…No evil-bind Goliath or Saul can destroy Heaven’s anointed David/heaven’s plan to bring Heavenly kingdom/Christ’s kingdom to earth ( Psalms 105v15)…Heavenly anointed ones are Heaven’s milestones, until Truth & justice/Heaven’s plan established on earth; Until Eden restored on earth ( Rev 21; )

  6. You realize that the orange criminal will do ANYTHING and EVERYTHING to try to avoid the PRISON sentence he knows is coming

  7. Never in my 64 years, have I worried about our country’s safety more than now. Vietnam war, 911, Trump and the GOP ARE threats to our national security. Especially when so many GOP were tied into Russian influences and contacts.

    1. Same here….and I served in uniform for 20 years at the top level of intelligence. This is really and truly horrific stuff.

    2. @M P My dad and his 3 brothers fought in the Korean War, my dad calls Trump an AHole ever since he called our servicemen losers and suckers! Thank you for your service to our country.

    1. @Tlay Tlay exported? They’ll have to get them out with a forklift. He’ll be wearing some vile nasty old bathrobe, 10 weeks beard growth and oh yeah~ he’ll need changing

    2. The President Won Alaska And N.C. P.A. Is Also Going To Flip Over To Trump…Georgia And Arizona Are Now GRAY And Trump Has A Good Chance Of Taking Them Back Because Of Voter Fraud…You Are The One That Is Delusional.

    3. @Tlay Tlay Now that he has replaced military leaders with his flunkies, a military coup may just be on the horizon. I wonder how FOX will spin justification for it?

    4. @DaughterZion Ros Try Proverbs 6: 12-19. It describes Trump to a T.
      The Wicked Man
      12 A worthless person, a wicked man,
      Walks with a perverse mouth;
      13 He winks with his eyes,
      He shuffles his feet,
      He points with his fingers;
      14 Perversity is in his heart,
      He devises evil continually,
      He sows discord.
      15 Therefore his calamity shall come suddenly;
      Suddenly he shall be broken without remedy.
      16 These six things the Lord hates,
      Yet, seven are an abomination to Him:
      17 A proud look,
      A lying tongue,
      Hands that shed innocent blood,
      18 A heart that devises wicked plans,
      Feet that are swift in running to evil,
      19 A false witness who speaks lies,
      And one who sows discord among brethren.
      Trump can now brag that he is even mentioned in the Bible

    1. @Instant atoms Not for long if Trump has his way. Word is he’s filling the Pentagon with loyalists, preparing a coup d’etat to remain in power.

  8. Pompeo: “We fight for all elections around the world to be legitimate and democratic.”
    America: “Including here?”
    Pompeo: “If it fits republicans needs, then sure.”
    America: 🤷🤦

  9. They’re up to something, it feels like a coup. Look at Mike Pompeo’s response about a “smooth transition to power for a second Trump term” there’s a criminal scheme being hatched.

    1. All of these things the GOP is saying are sooooo dangerous! People need to wake up! The Sec of State is literally saying He’s behind Trump all the way…so wrong! He needs to be Behind the American people!
