  1. Yeah held accountable. If they can’t do the job step down or be fired. can’t wait to see trumps face when the voters say your fired trump in November

    1. Can’t wait to see yours when the silent majority spanks you again. You guys just burned down your own cities while killing cops and shooting kids. No thanks! I invested in Kleenex and crayons and will sell them to you in November.

    2. @Trump’s trumPET McEnany He is a fake presidunce and you need to lick his boots on the inside you skank.

    3. @Matt Thompson
      If repulikans were real patriots, the country could RID itself of TRAITOR tRump and his sidekick Pence before the end of next week
      Impeachment and removal should take less that 2 days the evidence is already there!
      But that will never happen will it?
      Because the Republicans would need to get President Putin permission FIRST!

      Why do repugnant Politicians go to Russia regularly?
      To pick up there monthly Pay Checks?

  2. We have the worst president in history! I can’t believe dump i mean trump lead us down this pandemic!

    1. really? the news of all his misdeeds made public well before the election werent good enough clues? the news of his bankruptcies wasnt an indicator of how well he manages a company? the latter was a good indicator cause if you cant manage your own company and cant handle your own money and file repeated bankruptcies you cant handle the same of a nation of peoples either.

    2. @Trump’s trumPET McEnany How can you be so ignorant to facts? And the kind of language you are using tells everbody exactly where you come from!

    3. Democrat governors and mayors allowed mass protests to be held with thousands of people close together – yet told families they could not have funerals for their lioved ones!!!!!!!

  3. OMG America, your death number are moving too fast ? Please put on the mask and do all the routine. Listen to the scientist, so many countries did the same as advise by their scientist, they won the covid19 war. Protect one another.

    1. You didn’t have people on the side of the virus. We are going to reach a point where killing the virus involves killing the people that want it to spread.

    2. We are not only facing a reckoning on race relations, we are also facing a reckoning on disregarding the messengers of facts (elites) since we’ve been told we can for the last 50 years if we don’t like them.

  4. Donald Trump is the greatest ally of the coronavirus.
    This November, let’s vote for a president who is NOT pro-Covid!

    1. As my old friend Egg Shen once said: All movement in the universe is based on tension between Positive and Negative furies. When those furies are out of balance, as they are in Donald Trump, then the people turn into Demon and live for MAGA
      If everyone were united, we wouldn’t need a democracy to decide on the best way to do things. But that’s how we’re supposed to get things done with what we got.

    2. @Beautiful Woman It’s sayings like yours that are increasing the ranks of the real racists in America.

  5. Thanks Republicans for turning the United States into the Confederate States. The people will not forget or forgive you in November.

    1. @Trump’s trumPET McEnany you are just an old bag,you need a tRUMP rally,and be sure to leave your mask in the out house,skank.

    2. @ihave35cents Are you a troll or delusional? This is laughable! He came down the elevator: ‘Mexicans are rapists etc’! GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT!

    1. Democrat governors and mayors allowed mass protests to be held with thousands of people close together – yet told families they could not have funerals for their lioved ones!!!!!!!

    2. I don’t care if any elected official cares about my life, we don’t elect them to care about our lives, though many of us seem to think we do and should. Their job isn’t to care about our lives, it’s to provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare and secure the blessings of liberty. If they do that, and only that, then we have the power to take care of our own lives. Anything less is dereliction of duty, any thing more is tyrannical.

    1. @Kewpie Doll Your opinion is worthless. Cite some facts. What was the border policy of the Republican states?

    2. @i minabrons The congressional records stand as all the facts I need to make the statements I have made. Rather than ask me what the border policy of the republican party is, why don’t you point to it if you think it proves your point, which seem to suggest its the republicans immigration policy that is at fault. Good luck with that one. P.S. Don’t forget to mention to all the people who have contracted the virus how cruel the republicans are for their southern border policy.

    3. Democrat governors and mayors allowed mass protests to be held with thousands of people close together – yet told families they could not have funerals for their lioved ones!!!!!!!

    4. @Kewpie Doll DELUSIONAL! The democrats NEVER promoted open borders and certainly, not no testing! In contrast, Obama left a manual and a team in place that trump dismantled! GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT!

    5. @Vera von Weltin Bawahahahahah!….

      “Undocumented immigration is an opportunity. It’s an opportunity to rewrite our laws that are in accord with our values.” – Beto O’ Rorke

      “It’s not as much of a problem in a country right now where we have 3.8 percent unemployment.” -John hickenlooper.

      “Illegal immigration is an issue and Democrats have to admit that it is something that we have to confront.” – Seth Moulton.

  6. TRUMP AND PENCE DOESN’T CARE ABOUT OUR KIDS THEY JUST WANT TO SPREAD THE VIRUS THEY WANT TO DISRUPT ARE ELECTIONS . WAKE UP AMERICA

    1. Yep.
      Voter fraud is VERY hard to pull off but voter Suppression is quite easy.
      Just look at how the reTHUGlican party does it.

    2. @Matt Thompson Or both. But the point is still valid. Donald Trump wants to rebuild America’s economy on the bodies of our dead children! (There. I hope my grammar and punctuation are satisfactory.)

  7. The Trump Administration ,
    leading from behind ,
    not willing to take responsibility
    or blame but very quick to give themselves a pat on the back for the ‘job’ they are doing !!

    1. Democrat governors and mayors allowed mass protests to be held with thousands of people close together – yet told families they could not have funerals for their lioved ones!!!!!!!

    2. @i minabrons You can’t argue the facts or truths , so you come on and act the clown like Trump .

    3. @J. Lo Medical professionals are on record that the protesters did not contribute the present outbreak but that the stupid decisions to open up early were the culprits ,but you and yours know that ,you just like to act the victims .

  8. We used to have presidents. They had their own agenda, sure. None killed 55,000 people in one month. None declared absolute authority. Not one was a vile psychopath. Covid chose the right home.
    Leaders that don’t care how it thrives.

    1. I’m sure andrew jackson was a psychopath, I’m sure nixon was a sociopath and I’m positive regan was too. Otherwise they were paultry puppets, who sold their country and their souls to third party oligarchs.

    2. Democrat governors and mayors allowed mass protests to be held with thousands of people close together – yet told families they could not have funerals for their lioved ones!!!!!!!

    3. @J. Lo
      tRumps Handling of the economy, is assuring that only the “National Debt” and the “tRump Family Bank Balances” are the only things growing faster than Covid 19 cases in the US!

  9. In the mind of the Dictator Trump there is a movie. He imagines his Trumpanzis maga cult are the heroes fighting off the hoards of protesters and un-American traitors. He’s totally crazy. Tired of living follow Trump.

  10. CDC should be held responsible for out of control VIRUS- Especially if they bending to the president. FACTS TRULY IS ALL WE NEED. Not the crap we are being fed.

    1. It is so disappointing to see our highly respected CDC co-opted by the Trump Administration. It was sad to hear that the guidelines, scientific guidelines, for reopening the schools are being re-written to reflect how the president “feels” instead of what science requires.

  11. Even if Putin doesn’t win re-election, we won’t have new leadership until January 2021
    Let that sink in…

    1. @MrSpiritchild maybe go to fox news and read the nasty comments there, trump supporters views on anyone in the democratic party is “stupid” basically comments by trump supporters equal trump’s 4th grade inults on anyone who disagrees with him.

    2. @anne-marie Andrews I seem to remember almost 4 years ago, people saying Trump would never be elected. It’s not over until the fat lady sings…

    3. @anne-marie Andrews It’s no fun hanging out at fox news, almost everyone thinks like me, how boooorrrriiiinnnnggggg. On a side note, I see what you are saying, some of our less intelligent and immature deplorables can be a tiny bit… rambunctious. But if you are going to sit there and suggest that the left wing anti Trumpers don’t give as good as they get, you are looking through a one way mirror. We are at war missy, and the simple fact is, there are shots fired from both sides in every war, and to sit there and suggest that your side is filled with a bunch of innocent victims is unbelievably disingenuous.

    4. @Richard Batchelder Every state closing late and opening early are exploding with Coronavirus and Trump’s losing support in record numbers. Give up Vlad, the GOP is toast.

    1. @Tom McDermott – and the fire department would put it out or attempt to. Dodo isn’t even trying the smallest thing, wearing a mask and recommending others do too and that’s the problem.

    2. @margery morris – the issue isn’t how we got it, it’s why the guy in charge isn’t doing anything to save his citizens now that we have it. See the difference?

  12. It’s the greatest failure in leadership in American history. But that’s what you get when you elect an incompetent fraud. History will not be kind to Trump nor his Republican enablers 😖

  13. Trump must not be JUST FIRED….. He and the rest of them MUST BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE. HE WILL HAVE TO PAY.
