    1. @George MacMovies they can’t find anything…if the media could you can believe they would,but they give 😪 joe a pass.

    2. @George MacMovies 😪 joe set hunter up for enriching himself from china,ukraine and the mayor of moscow russia…look it ☝ you won’t find it from cnn or msnbc.

    3. @james fiero Now do Eric Trump donald trump jr and Ivanka trump hahahahahahahhahhhaahhahahahahahahahhahahahHAHSHHSAHAHHHAHAHAHA SMH

  1. Five books every US citizen should read:
    – ‘The Dictator’s Handbook’
    By: Bruce Bueno de Mesquita and Alastair Smith

    – ‘On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century’
    By: Timothy D. Snyder

    – ‘Surviving Autocracy’
    By: Masha Gessen

    – ‘Black Earth: The Holocaust as History and Warning’
    By: Timothy D. Snyder

    – ‘Dark Money: The Hidden History of the Billionaires Behind the Rise of the Radical Right’
    By: Jane Mayer

    1. Thank you. I would add to the list three more books by Malcolm Nance:
      – ‘The Plot to Hack America’
      – ‘The Plot to Destroy Democracy’
      – ‘The Plot to Betray America’

    1. He doesn’t read PDFs and cannot catch the context of the briefings but if his name is mentioned in it he will listen.

  2. If the US President doesn’t know who They Proud Boys” are then he is clearly out of touch and shouldn’t be in the job.

    1. @Papillon Lover Ya know, you are right. At some point, Hitler’s acquaintances all laughed him off as an anti-social, disgruntled loser incel too.

    2. @Papillon Lover Celibacy is in one group’s code. Heaven’s Gate were becoming eunuchs, like the current GOP. Maybe it’s really a plot by women, and Ivanka is behind it!

    3. The Socialist Democrat BLM Party offers you more riots…violence, and less police protection.. Niceeee, HUH..??

    1. What part of “SURE, I WANT PEACE ” didn’t you understand? Do you always need to be talked to like a kindergartener????

    2. @D ZajaWhat type of “Peace” and by what means? Peace for him is just peace of mind,no criticism and praise 24/7. That’s the problem, you massive freak.

  3. I don’t hate Trump just because everyone else does. I actually think he’s a dangerous person to America.

    1. @Don Carson ok and that means nada. I can pull up several times Trump has denounced racism and hate groups of all kinds.
      Can you find me one Democrat denouncing BLM or ANTIFA that is directly responsible for riots, looting, 40 murders, and 5 billion in property damage??

    2. @Mark bodman Puh Lease Mark, just give it up. BLACK LIVES DO MATTER. Stop trying to worm out of that Fact just because it makes you feel less quilty for being a racist yourself.

    1. Well, I’m sure he thinks HIS life matters…. and Ivanka’s. He said she’s hot and he wants to date her.

  4. Trump will not condemn QAnon or white supremacist groups because they are his biggest supporters. It’s all about the votes, who cares about the safety of the country!!
    BIDEN HARRIS 2020

  5. He can’t and won’t ever condem himself, it’s the oldest act of beating around the bush, trying to play both sides of the fence,, all the while not realizing how stupid immature he comes across, Trump is so used to dealing with such naive individuals that he thinks he can tell anything to anyone and they will believe him, well surprise surprise, we still have proud and smart Americans that are listening (unfortunately), to all his ridiculous racist talking points.

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

    1. CrazyLegsMcGee —- Sorry dead legs. This tax thing is way Above your brain capacity, Even if I explained it ALL to you. I can’t UNDERSTAND it for you! Adios. Trump 2020

    2. @Just the truth That kind of thought process is why people laugh at you. Being President doesn’t mean you are smart, dummy! lol. I guess you’re too stupid to understand because you’re not president :(.

    3. The Socialist Democrat BLM Party offers you more riots…violence, and less police protection.. Niceeee, HUH..??

    4. Who can be gotten to make him denounce these far right racist groups by name, just like Tim Russert and Hillary Clinton bullied Barack Obama into denouncing his then Pastor Jeremiah Wright in 2008? Forget about having Chris Wallace do it. He can’t even regulate a non contact “2 Man” debate…

    1. USA is 45th on the Press Freedom Index and ratings are all that matter, not news. 3% of the population and 20% of covid deaths because people are misinformed and news is for sale under the entertainment heading. Violence is entertaining, too. Morticians Lives Matter and funerals fund the pro-life churches. 80% of covid deaths are over 65 aka on FICA and a cost to the 1% who hate entitlements. 84% of media is in 5 corporate hands and 1 was selling a hoax meme while sterilizing their own studios. 410,000 dead by 010101. 328,000 retirees no longer collecting FICA.

    1. Exactly. Like him saying kkk and white supremacists groups are domestic terrorists and should be prosecuted.

    1. Not true @Mama Noodle…Trump said he didn’t know Stormy Daniels. But he paid her $130k anyway.
      He makes my skin crawl.

  7. Dear Trump trolls: FYI, Antifa are not liberals. They are not Dems. As soon as they came to the surface they were denounced by Pelosi. So stop the lies.

    1. Like @5:20 in this video where they clearly call Proud Boys a “white supremacist” group? A group that lists “anti-racism” as a core tenet, has a non-white leader and has never done a single thing to make a rational person think they are white supremacists?

      The left MSM make Fox News look like real journalism.
