Ftis that

oh good
Excuse me! The banana republics are quite insulted by that. They don’t want them either.
Always was
@Jennica O’Connor MOST of the Republicans are a JOKE. They’re corrupt and support a traitor, insurrectionists, and conspiracy theorists! TREASONOUS GOP
I find it funny that all these ball ticklers think they are the special ones to Trump that he wouldn’t hang them out to dry at the drop of a hat…
@Anthony Galler ….. it’s NOT ‘ looser ‘ !!!
ffs !!! ok ???
👍✊
@Terri Tarantulas Grrrrreat! We’re getting everything we want from Joe.
And the side show is fabulous! This second impeachment is ever so much more fun than the civil war you magagatts threatened US with.
It’s called ego.
@christina alfonse what? Was that English? I have no idea what you said.
COVID is CCP’s BioWeapon, search risk-life-flee-china virologist Dr. limeng yan’s report, get a Gene guy you trust(not the famous ones on TV) to verify her reports, she has waken the right(she had to talk with the right 1st since the right was in power), help her waken the left!!
PS. why CCP didn’t allow wuhan people go beijing, but allowed them to go overseas?
The insurrection was Trump’s revenge against democracy and our Constitution.
It was his way of getting back at everyone who refused to violate our Constitution on his behalf. And he reveled in it.
@omi god 👍 agreed.

@cham fefe <-- Falun Gong troll. Ignore.
@omi god CCP WUMAO, F**K YOU
@cham fefe Only Chinese nationals refer to the Chinese government as “CCP”. No one else does this.
Trump is actually very angry and disappointed with the Capitol Building rioters.
Only because they failed to put the kibosh on Pence and Nancy.
@Bay 17 So are all prisoners. All prisoners are prisoners of war. That includes Julian Assange and Edward Snowden (Snowden has every legal right to return to the USA a free man).
He also disliked them because he thought they looked too “low class”. A bunch of Jerry Springer Show rejects.
@Aminatu Warrior Spirit Those words only confirm his “daddy issues”.
@Diane Hooper you believe everything the news tells you? I’m currious?

*_Courage is getting out of the boat, when the guy in front of you is just shot. Look at these spineless Senators who can not even vote for America, let alone get out of the boat._*
@smart knucklehead Are you for real??
So true. To serve your country is an honor. to die for your country is a sacrifice of honor. My great uncle did he is still entombed on the Arizona in Pearl Harbor.
@kara sprouse Ironically it was 🌟Arizona that Trump and Ted Cruz conspired against like the voters voices there did not matter.Arizona matters.Your uncle’s sacrifice and loss matters🌟💙🌟
@Bon Goaie get a real job you spamming loser

Has Trump got dirt on Pence? He basically put a hit out on the Veep and Pence still says nothing?
I think it is likely that Trumop, along with Russia, have compromised the bunch.
Not even close. Nice try.
@Richard T Well if they ALL stood up for what’s right, that base would have no choice but to follow suit of vote Independent or Democrat….🤷🏽♀️ Ijs
Pence is just a spineless bigot. Good riddance to that entire disaster of an administration
@Milton Bradley You missed ‘c**k holsters’. Lincoln, Eisenhower, Reagan, Bush x2, McCain. Politics aside, these were leaders, men of honor. Frankly, Abe Lincoln would love the chance to ‘wrassle’ Donald. There wasn’t much for rules of ‘wrasslin’ back then. Eye gougin’,ear rippin’, @$$ kickin’. The Darnold would happily take part. After all, he is almost a champion boxer (“That’s what I hear people say, all the time!”)…probably. If only he didn’t suffer constantly from ‘Bone Spurs’! BTW – I really like your board games!
Pence was loyal to Trump, and look what happened, it’s sickening to think about what could have happened.
Trump is god for a lot of people.
Everyone who supports Trump is thrown under the bus at some point. It is impossible to always salve an insatiable Ego the size of Trump’s. Anyone who throws in with Trump is naive to think for a second that they won’t go down too.
@Peetje Purple – at least 450,000 would disagree, as well as their families and the business people who lost their incomes, the families that had to educate their children at home, 650 small children who were separated from their families with no plan to reunite them, the overall economy and employment situation. WHO DID WELL? Stock market investors (iow, the rich). Who else?
@William Springer it’s not Pence job to be loyal to Trump but loyal to the country.
Pence knew better, he knew what would happen!! If he reads his bible, as any Christian should, he knew liars were thieves and murderers it was when would it happen not if it would happen.
Proverbs 6:16 -19, KJV
16 These six things doth the Lord hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him:
17 A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,
18 An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief,
19 A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.
Pence and all the other so-called, evangelicals knew who they were dealing with or they should have known. Calm yourself and watch this workout, continue in prayer, and do not be afraid, fearful, or worry!!
Trump told an old proverb on one of his earlier platforms which let everyone know he was the snake and he would not hesitate to bite you and destroy whoever tried to stop him. We all knew!
The sad thing is, Pence really seemed to be in awe of Trump, and Trump was trying to use Pence as the scapegoat. Just another disgusting aspect to throw onto Trumps heap.
just another eunoch doing wat eunochs do best..lick the hand that abuses them..sad how they are all terrified of a guy who dodged the draft…wtf
@villa clarise it’s so easy to sit back on a personal device and judge others. Don’t ya just love it…?
TRUMP BULLIED PENCE ON WORLD TV WHAT MORE PROOF DO THEY NEED ,USA BECOMING SICKER AND SICKER
Neither one of them has any idea what “truth speaks beyond doubt”. means! But get this folks….they do not care! Sure, Pence ended up Being trump’s patsy…but is he paying any price for his part in backing him up for his protection of trump’s games? No! This so-called Christian, Man Of God, aided and abetted trump in every way possible until his “honoring” of his his very last participation of his trump-buddy until the very end and death of his duty to speak for all the people! Why are we surprised…who knows? I would not be surprised if the last details of his culpability were wrapped up weeks before! It’s. Sad day for HONOR! How do we know who is trustworthy to our standards of Democracy? We truly do not until they prove their hearts are connected to their actions and words!

Trump is the most manipulative person imaginable. You can’t believe one word he says.
@keir farnum Oh…not kidding about my ancestors. Want a history lesson?
Democrats are all possessed by Satan.
Pelosi is even worse
@Scott Morey Not hardly. She’s just someone trumpers love to hate.

Does he not realize that his opinion is detrimental to our DEMOCRACY?
He is just like Trump.,.he doesn’t care.
this just shows once again that the republicans do not are about the truth or the law
How can the lawless, republicans, speak about law and order

Or decency and humanity. Their party’s VP was a target for the mob at the behest of the outgoing turd, and they’re still lining up beside the gold plated toilet to salute him as he circles the bowl.
They aren’t afraid of their voter base, they’re just self serving narcissists themselves. They are totally deluded into thinking that they are the ones lined up as the firing squad, not the ones about to be shot at.
Pence owes it to the American people to speak NOW about what he knows, not in a few months. Subpoena the whole administration. Get on with it.
@just me crying? Your boy Trump hasn’t stopped crying yet that he lost… Trump is the biggest snowflake out there and you know it… he’s a man child
Book coming soon
Pence needs to go hide in a hole and never seek public office seeing as he is a religotard evangelist.
@Spring Sunshine ABSOLUTELY!!

Trump doesn’t have a concerning bone in his body, unless that concern involves himself. Wish more Republican Senators had a backbone to standup and do what’s right..
I think the “loyalty” to him in these people is a political investment. We keep hearing that Trump’s “base” is HALF the country. I don’t believe they are half of us but if you believe they are, Republican politicians don’t want to estrange them.
@Catherine Caroline Forbes I agree it’s not half. They just get all the attention. 74 million like his vitriol, violent or not, but 81 million don’t.
@first last What other jobs could they do? If they didn’t use the trumpists to get voted in again who would employ them? They are lost souls who don’t know how to do a day’s work. What have they done for their communities? It’s all the same me, me, me as Trump which is why they go so well together.
@Margaret Nicol political consultant, media analyst. Most are lawyers, go back into private practice. Yes they’d have to work, but they have plenty of options.
Maybe if the Democratic Senators did the right thing they could say something but they are just as crooked
Pence “trying not to speak publicly” is what he’s been doing the last 4 years.If Mikey wants to grow up to be President. His leadership style of disappearing whenever there’s a crisis is a liability.
They should stand up to trump long ago why u all let him get away with so much lies. U all to be blamed

Pence is not lily white. He been a part of the WH for years. So don’t point fingers!
@J Andrews No J, Pence is not innocent at all. If man judges and convicts you, then you have the possibility of someday being released from judgment. If the conviction and judgment are metered by heavenly standards then there is never release from judgment; throughout all lifetimes of existence, on every level of existence, throughout all generations, and on every world. Wherever the existence of the DNA of trump incarnates his judgment has no limit and his co-conspirators are included. Until all is paid in full!!
@J AndrewsI didn’t say that. It was obviously sarcastic and patronizing advice. I said his penchant for inaction and silence during a crisis while VP is not necessarily a leadership quality anyone wants.
Pence is no different than Trump, Democrats and liberals need to stop praising Republicans over the smallest things, they never change — check history!
@Marceline A. IF he had any self-respect, he would have said NO when Trump asked him to run as VP
You are absolutely right
1929 ! 2oo8 ! 2020 ! CONNECT THE GOP DOTS
@Els S BINGO! All Trump wants is to keep his supply coming in whatever form that takes. It’s a sickness.

Are you WOKE YET
That Trump put Pence’s family in danger should transcend politics for Pence himself. Would be shocked if he ever talked to Trump again.
Pence is despicable. He’s probably still torn between his own family and Trump.
He already has.

oh yes
Mike Pence seem to have daddy issues or something. He should stand up to Trump.
I can only imagine the shock pence feels that his hero wanted him allegedly dead. But you get in bed with devil and these are the results of it.
He is probably still not safe! He alone allowed himself to be in this situation–the consequences of living in an alternate universe of LIARS!…..he is just as guilty as trump and the republicans!
