    1. America you elected this b******** (Trump) now suffer. Trump has made a mess of of country. Is this mess really a surprise? Trump has F@@@** up everything he touched. Voters, Trump won because you didn’t vote in 2016 and James Comey couldn’t keep his mouth shut. Comey help elect Trump

      I pray to god when McConnell goes to bed tonight he has no pulse in the morning. You idiots

    2. @ragtime forever thinking for yourself is better than letting others think for you……SOME of Americans has let trump dictate their future…..to live or die for his cause…..and people don’t understand ONCE YOU HAVE OR HAD COVID19……THE ISSUES ARE NOT OVER….the organs are now damaged……..and even with this shot that is coming IT IS TO PREVENT not to cure the damage that has already OCCURRED!……so why should NONBELIEVERS WEAR A MASK…..JUST let them ask trump ,trumps dead brother or even YOUR NEIGHBOR……but even with that they still WON’T BELIEVE THAT COVID19 IS REAL…..mask up it saves lives

    1. @Titanium Is Real Seriously? Unemployment was 3.5% in 2019 – Dropping it nearly 1.2% in 3 years – the fastest decline in years.

    2. @LD Belanger You are wrong about that. Trump WAS impeached, but not removed from office. He was impeached on two counts of obstruction of justice, but only one Republican Senator, Mitt Romney, along with the 47 Democratic minority voted him out of office. It takes a 2/3 Senate majority vote to have a President removed from office. Those are the facts. You’re welcome.

    3. @LD Belanger I can’t find your post that I commented on, so I’ll just say I’m sorry for any miscommunication. I thought I was agreeing with you because you do have a good sense of the legal matters at hand.

  1. As P.T. Barnum said, “there’s a sucker born every minute.” Trump has located all of them. An incredible outreach program.

    1. @Benjamin Romberg — I think you’ll find Rick is being extremely sarcastic , he’s definitely not a Trump supporter .
      He’s actually encouraging the halfwits to weigh in with their cash ; not a bad thing , these nutters need to learn the hard way.

    2. @Dudley Burleson google how much trump has put the us in debt and that 50 million u were mention that’s clearly fake, all of a sudden becomes a very very very small number compared to trillions. White boy

    1. I also agree. Time to pull the plug on this scam. The RICO Act is one of many federal statutes that comes to mind. #FDT #LockHimUp

  2. After Flynn comments promoting sedition, you deduce that it was true he really did betray America by breaking byte Logan Act.

    1. It’s like trump never really was a president, he’s just a mob boss. All these people getting threats for standing against him, these are the people who have American values.

    2. According to six scholars of constitutional law and presidential power, a 2018 executive order gives the president the ability to impose economic sanctions on foreign entities who interfere in a U.S. election. It does not give the president the ability to impose martial law. Under the Constitution, the president can’t unilaterally impose martial law. ​

      Meaning – Trump and his Supporters can’t ask for martial law to overturn the election it’s unconstitutional SORRRRY TRUMP BAAAABBBBBY 🤪🥴😘 😘😘😘🤪🤪🤪🤪🥴🥴🥴

    3. @Strawberries Nd Crème only half true but you tried here’s your participation trophy now go get in your safe space cuz this might hurt your weak fragile little mind. He does have the power to enact marshall law not to overturn anything but to gather the evidence that is being held back from his team. He should have declared it weeks ago and he wouldn’t be in the time crunch he’s in. But we need to see how deep this corruption runs and boy oh boy it certainly does run deep. Supreme court justices? Yep
      Members of our higher parts of government? Oh absolutely they’re in on it. Anyone can see what they are doing. If there’s nothing to hide let the examinations take place let the signature verification happen. But no we’re just supposed to sit back and shut up because they said this was the safest election ever? Hardly the case. Why are the ones claiming this on record only 4 short years ago claiming the systems are bad and can be fraudulent and easily hacked

  3. Taking a page from his hero: “You can fool some of the people some of the time, you can fool some of the people all of the time….”
    .
    .
    What? there’s more?!?

    1. He was probably the worst of all of them, each one of which deserves to be in Prison more than 90%+ of the people who are in there.

  4. Why is any of this a surprise, of course he’s been ripping the country off..it’s what he does, what he has always done.. he deserves nothing more than a place in GITMO along with is whole family and enablers..
