    1. @Four Flat Tires Rolling Uphill are you keeping a tally? You know how insane you sound saying that right? Can you say schizophrenic ?

    2. @Four Flat Tires Rolling Uphill exactly. Facts. Those are all I speak. Follow your own advice. I’m sorry I hurt feelings with facts.

    1. Let’s not forget Moscow Mitch and how he voted down sanctions against putin right before one of Putin’s oligarchs put 400 million into an aluminum business in KY. The Russians will own 40% of it in KY.

    1. @Death to communism ! If you’ve bothered to read any of my other comments in this thread, then you would know that I’m neither a Democrat of a Republican. So, you might want to take your own advice.

    2. @MEXICAN INVASION why did Chinese nationals donate hundreds of thousands of dollars to Trump’s reelection campaign on behalf of the Chinese govt.??

    3. Funny, those who really have the courage to make a change to this country and NOT being a puppet often have to take a hard stand, that means controversy and public ridicule, especially in current world political climate. Trump is doing this, and those pretenders are not going to stop him!
      The left wing politicians tend to incite the public based on naive sense of morality to ask the right wing groups questions that are not “yes” and “no” questions, when the right wing groups tried to calm them down with logic and common sense the left wing will start lashing out through their medias. They entirely lack honor and respect for this country’s integrity.
      Loads of Congressmen and Senators bend to the left wing maniac mobs, yet the ones who really hold the truth are being called “UnAmerican” and “unconstitutional”. This is an armageddon that will decide the future of this great nation, united as one!
      They took Trump’s words out of the context and laugh at him. Not surprising, typical tactic used by the left — “If you cannot win an argument, make everything he says laughable.” This IS an armageddon that will decide the future of this great nation, united as one!

    4. *Putin and Trump are seated in a restaurant. A waitress approaches their table and looks towards Putin.*
      *Waitress (to Putin):* “What would you like to have?”
      *Putin:* “I’ll have the chicken”
      *Waitress:* “And for your vegetable?”
      *Putin:* “He’ll have the chicken too.” 😂

    1. @Linda L your idol baracks net worth multiplied by 30. Kinda fishy but its up to you to be a hypocrite 🐸 ☕️

    2. @7 Tweakers and a Nun as opposed to believing every single thing he says. Like he is your God, or your lover. You loooovvve him.

    3. @William Kahley notice how Republicans blame Trump for Nothing. He even said it with his infamous Times Square comment. And he was right. You will defend him if he shot someone, because that is what cults do.

    4. @SomeGuy OnAPhone lol.. And you need to stop watching all that Fox News. All you have is Fox, and a few lessor outlets. We have ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, MSNBC, PBS as far as large media sources. . Plus the smaller outlets like you have, and most of the large papers, and magazines. So who gets their news from the narrow source? Then there is the fact that Democrats are more educated. Who are Trump supporters? Mostly non-college educated whites. Not all but mostly. So your remark about us not thinking for ourselves is just nonsense.

    1. @Death to communism ! with a ‘handle’ like that how can you possibly defend Trump’s non-response to Russia’s cyber attack on the U.S. it’ s nothing less than treason.

    2. That’s why snake has two Tongues he will tell you what you want to hear But deceive you with other not only donie but your spiritual father has been lying from the beginning of time

  1. Duh Duh Duh … of course he would tag this too as “proof” he “won”
    Looked up narcissistic injury/rage on Wikipedia: (here is the gist)
    The model underlying the construct suggests that narcissistic injury occurs when a narcissist feels that their hidden, “true self” has been revealed. This may be the case when the narcissist experiences a “fall from grace”, such as when their hidden behaviors or motivations are revealed, or when their importance is brought into question. Narcissistic injury is a cause of distress and can lead to dysregulation of behaviors as in narcissistic rage.
    Narcissistic rage occurs on a continuum, which may range from instances of aloofness and expressions of mild irritation or annoyance to serious outbursts, including violent attacks and murder.[2] Narcissistic rage reactions are not limited to personality disorders and may be also seen in catatonic, paranoid delusion and depressive episodes.[2] It has also been suggested that narcissists have two layers of rage. The first layer of rage can be thought of as a constant anger (towards someone else), with the second layer being a self-aimed wrath.

    1. “..including violent attacks and murder” OH you mean like rioting, looting, destroying and burning down for months on end over nothing? Like that?

    2. @Mark Hays No, I think they may mean like stabbing and shooting people. Perhaps like someone too young to own a rifle crossing state lines to shoot two people. Or bringing weapons to government buildings. Or stabbing people at rallies. In other words actual VIOLENCE and MURDER against human beings, not stuff. I think that may be closer to what is meant by “…. including violent attacks and murder.” It’s kinda hard to think they meant something else, actually.

    3. @Ian
      Yeah like plots to kidnap governor’s and death threat’s to anyone they disagree with. Like official elector’s and other Republican
      (and of course, Dem.)
      Official’s. And attacks on Black churches.
      4 in one night.

    1. Treason indeed.Willful maliciousness, ignorance, deception, weak and incompetent describes the first and only term of Trump’s presidency. Simple.

    1. Yep left his care-free life to put himself under constant harassment and stress for the retirement years of his life. Wake-up sheep 🐑.

    2. The media the media the media doesn’t have to tell me anything.
      I see all I need to see to conclude for myself that our “president” doesn’t have the best interests of the country in mind.

  2. when he says it’s under control…. he means it isn’t under control and he won’t do anything about it

    1. @Steve the Blood Raven Trump is a narcissist and anyone who knows narcissism can recognize it. it literally baffles me how anyone can support him. like how can his idiocy be missed and explained away lol

    2. I feel you being deceptive or your a absolutely terrible “Truther” journalist. The problem is and always has been CCP (Huawei) VS real deal Swedish Nazi’s Ericsson satellites.-(Ericsson) theSwedish are not Russian.
      Both are bad both need to be wrangled not addressing such important topics is disinformation at this point in time.

    4. @Kevin Duggan – Which conspiracy site did you get that from? I take it you work for the FBI/pentagon/government cyber security team? Talk about misinformation. Why would anyone believe you?

    1. Covering for the Russians? Were you in the room when Trump received the intelligence brief? You are speculating and echoing the media
