    1. M Doc wtf r u talking about?
      He’s not smart enough to Bait anyone… he’s just coming up with lies on the fly.. plain n simple.. one of the dumbest most corrupt ppl I’ve ever seen.

    2. @J. E. Lewis, II Democrats picked trump to win the presidential primary election to To better their chance of winning the general election the plan backfired when Trump won

    1. @Gunsandrosalina Padtwo I have seen Dave Schultz in these threads too! A lot! He’s clearly a troll with nothing of value to add.

    1. @desglacons Your god is lie lady. Let me ask you this? did god make a mistake giving man.free will.

      Answer that and you will find god.

      Got nothing to do with numbers it’s all about looking in a mirror.

    2. @Dave Schultz 😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄Yes where? In your dreams as usual.

    3. @Dave Schultz You say that, but in the last, say 50 years, it seems to be Republican administrations committing the US to war, not Democrats. Sooooo, why don’t you just shut up already!

  1. If the story keeps changing it’s a lie. He’s evolving the story as it goes to see what sticks. But he’s done that too often and we’re not buying any of it.

    There will be an investigation, guarantee.

    1. He thinks all his audience is a 5 – 10 years old… thats why its very difficult for most of us to understand his actions. For God sake he is the president of the USA.

  2. There’s only one response to Trump’s saying, “I believe it would have been four embassies . . .”

    Here it is: “Mr. President, you believe a lot of things that aren’t true. You believe Ukraine meddled in the 2016 election on behalf of Hillary Clinton. You believe that 5 million people voted illegally in 2016. You believe you had the biggest crowd of any inauguration. You believe you have the ‘most transparent’ administration ever. For years, you believed that President Obama was not born in the United States. What you ‘believe’ is irrelevant. If you want Americans to believe you now, show us the evidence behind your assertions.”

    1. Great comment, he can’t be honest about anything & now he’s looking to silence Bolton who he knows under oath he will tell the truth something Trump wouldn’t be able to do for sure #IMPOTUS

    2. @Arden McConnell And Putin is furious right now. Soleimani was a very important contact and ally of Putin.

    3. @One World 😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😁👌👌👌

  3. trump agreeing with reality then immediately starting the never ending contradictions does not make that massive amount of dishonesty ok

  4. Ugh 🙄 can he just go away? Far, far, far, far, faaaar, FAAAAARRRR away!?!? Dammit. Trump SUCKS 🖕🏻

    1. The best location, there’s no better one , the best destination, for Trump. Iran.. He will be more than welkom, and he will be rightfully on his place.

  5. “Of that you can be sure” and ” a lot of peeple(sic) are saying.” 45 tells.
    If you are set on telling the truth, it tests your memory; if you are lying it will test your imagination.

    1. I dont think we will ever be able to fix the mess Republicans made this time. Democrats always have to clean it up. This time the damage has been done ALL OVER THE WORLD

    2. @Exquisite Eva Grywalsky oh , that horrible mess of lowest unemployment in 60 years
      gdp %4 , wall st record profits
      isis destroyed
      north korea backed off
      iran now cowering with the reality we can destroy them 50 times over
      WHAT MESS

    3. @vince kelly My “Baseless” comment was actually a response to your comment that all the Democratic candidates were either corrupt or incompetent.

  6. It eats him up that he can’t just be left alone to do as he pleases. His admiration for dictators says so much.

    1. You know, you hit an interesting point. Trump is like that grammar school kid who thinks the president is like God, can do anything and should never be questioned. Trump’s aptitude and understanding of our democracy [with it’s checks and balances] is frighteningly deficient, but more than that, Trump wants to act like that grammar school kids concept of what the president is like.

    2. @jp – you may not realise that you hit the nail on the head here by likening Trump’s thinking to that of a school kid. The behaviours/thought processes of a school kid that you describe, are the behaviours/thought processes of ‘adult’
      Narcissists (persons with Narcissistic Personality Disorder aka ‘NPD’)…. because Narcissists are in effect children in adult bodies.

      1) @ 5:04 of the link above, Sam Vaknin (leading world expert on Narcissistic Personality Disorder) says:

      “…. Narcissists lack the basic equipment of being human/needed for being human”

      2) @ @ – 
      Sam Vaknin says THERAPISTS NEED TO USE *CHILD PSYCHOLOGY* , not ADULT PSYCHOLOGY, for treating Narcissists:

      “The reason all the existing therapies FAIL with Narcissists is because they try to treat the Narcissist as an ADULT. But [a Narcissist] is NOT an adult, it’s a CHILD! They need to use CHILD psychology.”

    3. Beautiful Dayzee Thanks for that excellent post and the time to post that insightful reply. I an 65 years old and I have been around the block. I am happy to see that my observations of Trump actually matches what mental professionals have to say on this matter.

    1. @John Welch You’re an imbecile… there is No river in Egypt called ‘denial’… it is called the Nile River… and it flows ahead of and beyond Egypt, you Drumpfuck.

    2. @John Welch Matter of FACT, I bet – without looking it up on Google – you don’t even know which way it flows! Yep, I thought so… you are on Google now. Learn anything new, you Drumpfuck?

    3. @eltorocal you’re not even intelligent enough to figure out I am not a trump supporter, I know you are a democrat because your first instinct is to insult people and shut down the conversation before I expose just how deeply ignorant you actually are

    1. Matt Dowling So far….Goodness me, are you serious, he was just pulled back in the nick of time from starting a dangerous war to take the heat off his impeachment. They have just passed a law that will try to reign him in with regard to his ability to declare war. You are living in la la land with that kind of thinking and belief. Trump is a very dangerous man because he is an impetuous, narcissistic, ignorant man with not an ounce of empathy for his fellow man. You are entitled to your own ideas, as am I, but please, please form them based on fact, not tribal politics and a refusal to acknowledge these facts.

    2. No different than any other lefty or pretend righty POTUS clown these days. They’re all into destroying people’s rights, wars and coups.
