94 comments

  1. The GOP has become the anti-worker party, anti-science party, anti-public health party, anti-democracy party, anti-patriotism party, anti-accountability party, anti-senior party… the list goes on and on.

    1. @Carol blue states are doing ok, no thanks to trump, the red states are on fire , gonna be a heck of a winter

    2. @Brian Goble I LIVE IN A SWING STATE AND WE’RE ON FIRE, 3RD HIGHEST COVID RATE IN THE US
      REPUBLICANS ARE GOING TO COURT TO STOP A MASK MANDATE OCT 5TH, GOVERNOR EXTENDED

      WE HAVE SEATBELT LAWS TO SAVE LIVES

      WE HAVE HELMET LAWS TO SAVE LIVES
      DOCTOR’S JOKE, THOSE THAT RIDE WITHOUT ARE ORGAN DONORS

    3. @Melissa Sullivan Longer than that, it started under Reagan when he blew up the middle class with “trickle down economics”, and shut down mental health facilities. And the Evangelical Dominionists got their foot hold in government under him.

    4. HAHAHAHA.. what did you do just copy down something from one of President Trump’s speeches when he was talking about the Democrats, and then turned it around. Goodness your little sneaky

    1. Everyone over sixty is in greater danger because of Trump. Not just because of CoVid-19, but also the GOP will slash Medicare and Medicaid. So, (although I don’t think that’s your motivation) your choice is also prudent from a selfish point of view.

    2. You are in good company. Florida’s elder population, [65 & up], for the first time, in so many decades, is opposing the Republican candidate for president, by a large margin. GOP’s attack on their Social Security & Health has hit a strong negative response to the GOP’s supporters of such a party. Especially the president…

    3. @Bernard Forand Yeah, how kind of them to finally show some concern. Shame they didn’t seem to notice them screwing the country till it affected them.

  2. Pence has it, he does not want to acknowledge he has it because then the third in control would be Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats, would be in control of the government because the Republican idiots all caught life-threatening virus and are not able to run the country anymore Republicans are the party of COVID-19 they want everyone to catch it they want everyone to not wear a mask and they want all the states to open up scientists come out and say here’s how you stop the virus :mask social distancing: Republicans come out from the White House and say “don’t wear a mask and open up” Republicans are
    Money over lives , Democrats are lives over money !!!

    1. And tax dollars are paying for the best in everything. His heart condition isn’t being considered a preexisting condition. Remember, when this is over, be it real or show, he is actively pushing the Supreme Court to take away our protections and healthcare. Sad!

    2. Bill , maybe we could “mail in” all the infected GOP to Epstein’s old island, he’s not using it😳. Then, they can develop their own herd…mentality. 😂😂😂🤕🤒😷😜

  3. Trump : Nobody has Corona better than me. My only positive pool is the Covid-19. That’s Trumpandemic 😂Hydroxychloroquine didn’t work. Vaccine is not yet 🤔 i will try to inject the Clorox inside me.😂

  4. If his base wasn’t so racist, they could live in a country with worker protections and a safety net. Their hate for their black and hispanic neighbors is stronger than their own desire for a decent livelihood, a livable planet, or a future for their kids. Their hate drags the whole country down.

    1. @K20z3 Keith i have no context for that statement, joe aint perfect. but hes better than a science denying , superspreading imbecile of hate and idiocy that is trump. what does a russian hacker make these days, a couple of potatoes and a shot of vodka?

    2. So well said, Amber. i always think the difference between us and righties is that we actually believe that the natural progression of our culture would be to TRY TO GROW THE F UP, where the right believes in nothing but ‘the survival of the fittest’, which seems to be an ironically non-Christian world view.

    1. the most vocal anti union , union members are the ones that hide their misbehavior behind union protections.

    2. Cutting their own throats !!
      Remember when UNIONS were the high standard of corruption ?
      Now it’s the GOP !! And they added TREASON to the list !!

    3. Correct, that Republican vote is a vote against your own best interests. Republicans HATE unions, they want you to work for minimum wage, wake up and smell the coffee. Have some self respect, in order to provide a better life for your family by working union. FOOLS.

    1. The real Republican Party used to be the Party of the “People”. They fought against the Confederates of the South and gave their lives to conserve the unity of the 13 States of America. It was a party that protect the rights of the common people, the unity of the States the freedoms and rights of Americans, not anymore, the New Republican Party is the Party of the wealthy and rich, they don’t care anymore about Democracy nor the unity of America. Trump has divided us in tribes, race against race spreading hatred and superiority. Trump is their new leader and they all do what he commands.

    2. Teddy Roosevelt was a *Progressive* Republican, who busted banks and had monopolies shaking in fear, as he enacted many worker rights. Eisenhower was a *Progressive* Republican, who expanded Social Security and had the single largest social work project in the Interstate construction. Nixon was a Republican who enacted the EPA and even supported a UBI when first taking office.

      It was the GOP Party of Reagan, whom abandoned the worker and spread the fallacy of “trickle down” economics, which has seen wage disparity and the decline of the middle class. In the last 40 years, wages for the majority have not kept up with inflation, but the top 10% earn so much more that it skews the charts to make it look like the opposite is happening. We are seeing indentured servitude into underpaid jobs to pay off rising property, healthcare, and school costs. They trick their supporters with race baiting, false religion identification, misleading cherry picked statistics, and tax cuts that “promise” a slice for everyone who “works for it”. They divide us into thinking like ignorant, selfish sociopaths, who shouldn’t concern themselves over anyone else’s wellbeing. The current Republican party (and Corporate Democrats), is the Oligarch’s party. They don’t care about anyone who won’t make them personally rich…

  5. “The President, a billionaire by his boasts, gets free government tax paid healthcare, best healthcare can buy – by tax payers. Trump’s goal is to takeaway less fortunate, without replacement, for 20 million Americans, even as the pandemic rages. There are still 10 million workers that lost their job and healthcare 6 months ago. Must be nice to be part of the privileged.

    1. @truthseeker about our food truthseeker is showing the world the type of ignorance lack of sophistication and stupidity that define the people that support the democrat party, amazing so many can be so ignorant

    2. @Tim Neal you think intelligence is backing the trump/bannon republican wall scam? you like thieves and slumlords like the trump family? because if you vote trump you’re voting in trump’s family and in-laws! just like a dictator to have his family working in america’s whitehouse.

    3. @B Bodziak Wow ! That is disgusting! Thankfully in our country we would not have any cost.All our non employed have free healthcare.And you are supposed to be the richest country.That sucks!

  6. He’s a trump, he was always meant to fail. It was just a matter of, would he take us with him, or not!

    1. He will take us with him! Because in HIS MIND, he can never fail, so we will all have to be punished and blamed for HIS failure….

  7. A mask, face shield, and a chair is all that is needed to VOTE IN PERSON! LET’S DO IT!!! 🦋🇺🇸

    1. TRUMP IS A MASS MURDERER

      TRUMP SAYS BLUE STATES HAVE THE BIGGER COVID 19 DEATH RATES
      TODATE. RED STATES NOW HAVE 47% OF THE COVID DEATHS
      RED STATES, have  70% OF DEATHS SINCE JULY

      The scariest thing is yet to come…

      200,000 AMERICAN DEATHS FROM COVID 19

      EXPERTS PREDICT 410,000 DEAD AMERICANS FROM COVID 19 BY JANUARY 1, 2021

      DOUBLING IN 4 MONTHS

      Yet trump doesnt have a plan for covid 19

  8. WE GOT TO VOTE TRUMP OUT IN A LANDSLIDE…..SO HE CAN’T TRY TO STEAL THE ELECTION THRU THE COURT’S

    1. @Western V Yeah… god forbid we help the general public with the tax money they’re paying. Let’s keep giving it to the CEOs of all these companies that aren’t paying taxes. Isn’t that how capitalism works? You don’t pay your share, you run your business into the ground with your greed, then you make everyone else pay for your failures.

    2. @Western V Being so knowledgeable on socialism you’ll have read the Communist Manifesto? And know which countries have had democratic socialist governments in the west? You won’t be attacking socialist ideas because someone told you they are evil? Will you?

    3. Kingmobmor i love capitalism because you can work really and become rich socialism you work really hard so you can live poor doesn’t sound fun I probably would just become a non worker. And the funny thing is you say democratic socialism like it’s a thing lmao

  9. The GOP doesn’t want to give the covid-19 stimulus. They want to abolish Roe v Wade, Pre-existing conditions and Voting Rights.

    1. In the 21st century, the two Republican presidents were ‘ elected’ despite loosing the popular vote. Of course they want to keep the status quo, the EC and all the gerrymandering that’s going on in the Red states…. They’ll fight as if their life depends on it , because it does.

    1. @Liverpool 11 nah lad, the dust remains. South side here: tocky and spoke, via garston. Guess your a blue nose, good start to the season. At least you’ll not be fighting relegation for a change. What US city you based?

    2. @Liverpool 11 don’t answer my enquiry which US city you are based. Remaining incognito probably for the best. Left the UK 78? Escaping Thatcher to run into Trump? It’s true what they say about scousres: trouble just seems to follow them around.

    3. Anthony Halliday Hi Anthony! Another scouser here! but still living in the U.K. my sisters live in the USA, one in Michigan another in Ohio, with family in California and Texas. All Liverpool FC supporters. They all hate trump and his crooked administration. All hoping that Biden wins of course, trump has really damaged the reputation of the USA. I’m so hoping there won’t be any trouble with trump’s far right supporters. I would really love to see an inquiry into how trump has handled the virus. It’s more than sheer incompetence, it’s criminal. To think he was trying to suppress information on the virus coming out and keep people in the dark, all because he didn’t want to panic the country, we all know that is a blatant lie, it was to not panic the stock market. To think that lives have been lost because of his callousness and indifference, it’s just shocking. What are we to believe now? Does he have the virus or not? Transparency is not in the trump lexicon, you can’t even trust the doctors now. He is up to something that is for sure, what exactly we just don’t know.

    2. Jeffrey Dahmer It’s funny somehow. Someone mentions that Democrats show RESPEKT and pray for Trump and you get butt hurt. Even if it looks like a fake move to you this is how leaders supposed to behave and I’ve never heard about a Liberal, Conservative, Right Winger, Fascist, Communist etc who disrespected his country’s fallen soldiers yet. Which part p.ssed you off? The lies? Of course! Trump is a pathological liar, anyone knows that. The news here in Europe are packed with his bs. Lies lies lies 24/7 🍊💩

    1. And people don’t understand it because they’re too busy being angry at immigrants, minorities, lgbtq, women, and the tax collector!
