    1. @michael boultinghouse 👈neonazi, the kind of people trump likes. This one tho have no balls so he’s just a keyboard warrior. Lives in his mamas basement and plays all day on his computer.

    2. Coward-in-chief hiding in florida while his ‘sucker and loser’ followers fight in DC- shows us what this DICKtator wannabe thinks of his low IQ sycophants -LOL

    3. Traitor-in-chief is calling his sycophant supporters to fight in DC, as a pathetic excuse to call for martial law- AMERICA don’t fall for this clownish coup attempt!

    4. @sokol Unfortunately, the Dumbest kids usually ARE the COOL ONES, in Grade school. It’s usually goes down to Half by College and Society in general.
      Humans ARE the Dumbest species on the Planet, that’s why I’m not sold on Atheism or Evolution. We are too self destructive to Validate claims of human ingenuity and the ability to learn from their mistakes to make a better WORLD for the sustained existence of MAN in the next 10yrs, let alone the Next 💯!!!

  1. four years ago, people were labelled as alarmist when they warned of trump’s authoritarian character.
    how ’bout now?

    1. @Mike Pelligrino Traitor-in-chief is calling his sycophant supporters to fight in DC, as a pathetic excuse to call for martial law- AMERICA don’t fall for this clownish coup attempt!

    2. Traitor-in-chief is calling his sycophant supporters to fight in DC, as a pathetic excuse to call for martial law- AMERICA don’t fall for this clownish coup attempt!

    1. @David Adams the military said they won’t commit could for Trump and that they don’t have the authority to overturn election results

    2. @ChaoticKreg Last time I checked – rigging an election was illegal. Only the FEMA camps have room for so many criminals. Glad they are complete with guillotines, thanks to HRC.

    3. I urge everyone here. Left or right. To go to trumps YouTube account and watch the ” the plot to steal america” video. Do not listen to the mainstream media it doesn’t matter if your left or right. Its the people vs the ultra rich and communists. Dont believe me just take 15 minutes and watch. All mainstream media is controlled by corporations getting funds from China.

  2. This is the country that sends envoys around the world to show them how democracy should be run. What a joke the U.S has become.

    1. @Daniel P Wrong fool … they’re fleeing to a place you’re not dropping bombs … or dictators … or causing mayhem. Now you’ve got Russians using your own tactics on you! They’ve even installed their man in the White House! Karma.

    1. @John Halas
      “World order is coming. You have now zero freedom because you’re reporting to my master in China.” – Biden

    2. @Fidel Ca can’t deal with the reality that Trump lost and his clown team of so-called lawyers were allowed free reign to investigate and could find nothing so they just made us sh*t.

    1. @José de Jesus oh what branch are you in? From what I see that’s not true. The corrupt non fighting higher ranks might because they’re corrupt and the non fighting Democrats that were given undeserved officer jobs as an initiative to “balance out the military politically” (like they’re trying to do now in law enforcement) I’m sure do too but the real soldiers that do the fighting, love him

    2. Because a big gov loving pro china biden who is planning on doing things that require you to be disarmed, yeah much better lol

    3. @José de Jesus well I tried to respond to you about how there no evidence of that and was just made up by the liberal media but YouTube is censoring me now. Tyrants hate free speech

  3. Is anyone even surprised about this anymore? The signs were there that he would act this way but not much was done.

    1. Yes from people like this soap opera conspiracy theorist lady OMG I had to check out what they call mainstream its crazy!! No wonder people out in stores are nuts this lady is dangerous

    2. The worst is Covid-45. Once infected your brain loses its ability to process information logically. You become delusional and your face turns orange. There is no cure.

  4. Remember when if the president wore a tan suit “he’s gone too far this time”? Now calling on people to riot is just Wednesday!

  5. I called this months ago. I said… IF he lost he was going to make the whole country pay the price because that’s what soar losers and babies do.

    1. @duke harden And now we can see what is meant, by the essential need for “emotional intelligence.” Bill Maher referred to the lack of it, among many, as an affliction of “stupid smart people.”
      It used to be called a lack of wisdom.

  6. This sociopath belongs in jail, why no one has stopped him is beyond comprehension! Can’t wait for this nightmare to be over!

  7. The man has committed treasonous acts and now must be tried for his sedition. Enough of this want to be dictator

    1. @Repeal 230 the vaccine would have been developed no matter who was in the Oval Office. You’d think he was one of the scientists who created it. He has no medical credentials except to recommend Lysol and bleach. He’s scared and needy to be credited with it. Such an attention seeker and he’s wearing everyone out with his huge ego.

    2. @WHU FC … and where are those evasive tax returns? Trump is corrupt. That’s why there are so many civil and federal lawsuits filed against him.

    3. @D O His minions believe his BS that his administration and no other you have developed it. Really? Remember when he instructed that the virus was nothing big, now the orange blob breaks his huge butt getting the vaccine out. Contradicting himself, again.

    4. @J9 Keystone ha Ha, yup. We would have won WWII no matter who was in office. FDR had nothing to do with it. We would have got bin Laden no matter who was office. Obama had nothing to do with it.

      And, those four decades where Joe Biden was a US Senator and VP, all that stuff that he did… like putting black people in prison and.. urrhhh.. well that’s all he did, but putting black people in prison.. it could have been anybody.

    5. @Tony Dambrauskas considering the FACT that initial predictions were MILLIONS of deaths Trump should be given credit for SAVING millions of lives. After all it’s not his fault incompetent Democrat governors like Cuomo FORCED nursing homes to take ACTIVE patients.

    1. It is a joke.
      In other democracies elections are handled by a neutral independent body and politicians play no part in it. America’s antiquated system is fragile and ill conceived. Just the fact that a candidate can get less citizen votes but still win is ridiculous.

  8. The president is insighting violence, insurrection and calling for treasonous attacks on the United States of America Lock them up

  9. He is going down and he is taking America with him. The guy is pure poison. I’m astounded that some think this behavior is normal, and should stay in for 4 more years.

  10. Can he not be prosecuted for inciting violence? Wtf America, for the “greatest country” you certainly have very little power and very few rules.

    1. I thought America was a strong no nonsense country but now i found out that America is the weakest country..these people let Trump take over the whole country. I never seen this in my life, they just left Trump to do as he places, what a joke

  11. This has flavours of ERDOGAN, who turned TURKEY from a genuine democracy into an authoritarian country.
