    1. Dan Dan with commies like you only you would say that .Binden and you are kiling our country which is not yours and not his move to china.

    2. @vote red Trump 2020 <-------If that's true then why has Trump refused to sign the Hyde Amendment..yes refused...while Biden has signed it 50 times?? We all know Trump has paid for MANY abortions in his life and hiding from it.

    3. @vote red Trump 2020 ok sure he did as soon as biden asked trump to denounce white supremacists and he wouldn’t do it he lost the debate .

  1. 200.000 Americans died. ‘’It is what it is’’

    That’s Trump’s way of showing ‘’empathy’’. 🙄

    1. *Obamacare Will Increase Health Spending By $7,450 For A Typical Family of Four*
      Sept 2013

      *It was one of candidate Obama’s most vivid and concrete campaign promises. Forget about high minded (some might say high sounding) but gauzy promises of hope and change. This candidate solemnly pledged on June 5, 2008: “In an Obama administration, we’ll lower premiums by up to $2,500 for a typical family per year….. We’ll do it by the end of my first term as President of the United States.” Unfortunately, the experts working for Medicare’s actuary have (yet again) reported that in its first 10 years, Obamacare will boost health spending by “roughly $621 billion” above the amounts Americans would have spent without this misguided law.*

    2. 200.000 Americans died. ‘’It is what it is’’

      That’s Trump’s way of showing ‘’empathy’’. 🙄

    3. @Jeffrey Dahmer trumps dementia— trump doesn’t remember cohen, proud boys, igor, manafort, etc etc — when asked about them Trump says ” I hardly know him”– and he says biden has dementia.

    4. 200.000 Americans died. ‘’It is what it is’’

      That’s Trump’s way of showing ‘’empathy’’. 🙄

    1. Most democrat voters were born out of wedlock and didn’t have their father around that’s why they can relate to Barry(no dad)Obama and Colin(no dad)kappernik!

    2. i think mamma binden forget to tell joe sniffing huffing puffing and sticking your fingers you know where is a no no and communism is very very bad .

    1. @Yo-yos Tenbuckslol… Come on now he said that the military was ready to make it fast and Swift also door to door..

    1. We need to vote to make sure the commie in the basement doesnt stink of the white house and turn it into joes commie house of sniffing

  2. Pompeos denial to visit the pope should tell all Catholics just were they should be standing in this election. Time to vote out the ungodly trump.

    1. Planned parenthood aborted 80 thousand black babies in NYC in one year! Now that’s crime fighting! Defund police and allocate the funds to planned parenthood!

    2. @Jeffrey Dahmer When abortion is again relegated to the backroom and the coat hanger, we’ll be sure to bring all of the babies resulting form forced conception to you. I’m sure that with a chosen handle of JEFFREY DAHMER you would give them excellent care through adulthood.

    1. Sleepy Joe Biden was finger blasting Tara Reid back when Bill Clinton was ravaging the Whitehouse interns!

  3. At the debate, trump looked and acted like Chris Farley’s character who lived in a van down by the river

    1. @Jeffrey Dahmer You are an unhinged freak. Your mob boss president and his syndicate were telling us for months now that Biden is in a coma, but his performance proved beyond any doubt that the cognitive dysfunction that your Neo-Nazi president and his thugs were attributing to him were just more of their wormy fabrications.

    2. I’m telling you God is ready to come back to take his children are you ready . You whent to Catholic school you grow Catholic where you going ……..n. ……l

  4. Catholics in the USA should listen to their highest priest and accept that Climate Change is real and should be addressed quickly. Trump is doing everything to allow his fossil fuel donors to keep destroying the planet for profits. And that’s on top of all his lying, corruption, and fornicating. No true Christian should support trump.

  5. Trump is unfit to be the President of the United States!
    Vote for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.
    Give all the powers to the Democrats, the Republicans are not trustworthy!

    1. Trump is unfit to be the President of the United States!

      Vote for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.

      Give all the powers to the Democrats, the Republicans are not trustworthy!

    2. Trump is unfit to be the President of the United States!

      Vote for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.

      Give all the powers to the Democrats, the Republicans are not trustworthy!

  6. The Vatican denied Pompeo an audience with the Pope. Imagine, trying to get a photo-op with the Pope to get the catholic Vote, Completely unscrupulous.

    1. Uncovering Hypocrisy . Trump sold his soul to the devil and his cronies including his sons and daughter, happy that the Pope didn’t go along their game

    2. The Vatican denied Pompeo an audience with the Pope. Imagine, trying to get a photo-op with the Pope to get the catholic Vote, Completely unscrupulous.

  7. Notice how Trump never attends church on Sundays. President Obama would often attend church with his wife and kids.

    1. @Equality ForAll
      “types like a 5 year old”
      You got that right………………. “Jesus weepted”[SIC]

    2. @vote red Trump 2020 — What’s a “christain” that you keep mentioning? You sound like a Russian asset/bot spreading lies about Obama. Whatever or whoever you are, know that Obama read/studied/meditated on Bible scriptures daily.

  8. Trump won’t condemn them because they are his base. He openly is supported by racists and he embraces them

  9. I have no idea why trump is even in this race, when you compare him to this good man we have in Joe Biden?

    1. I thin you must think and not abreact. The incumbent is in the race because unlike Calvin Coolidge, he does not choose not to run. The smart money says he’s too terrified to leave the White House until her can figure out a way to get out of the country. Imagine the spectacle of Air Force One landing in Moscow, and his running unto custody seeking asylum. Other perhaps smarter money says he might be very close indeed to fallen down in either a fatal or an incapacitating stroke, in which case, should they decided to keep him propped us, in the Woodrow Wilson manner, Melania would obviously not be either willing or able to pull off an Edith Wilson (or a Nancy Reagan in Ronnie’s 2nd term). Whatever else about her, I do believe she has a sort of lupine mother instinct that must impel her to get her autistic son out of danger.

  10. Me: Catholic raised. Catholic High School. Catholic College. And, any “Catholic” that votes for Trump is Satan’s spawn.

    1. You are not Catholic. Please read the Bible. Or you don’t have. Bible read the 10 commentment?. And after tell sambari what they most to do?
