  1. We’re getting distracted fam. I’m getting worried he’ll be re-elected. We should have ads saying he’s going to stop social security and/or he’s given up on fighting the pandemic. He’s using fear and the polls shows it’s working…

    1. a. barker, I voted for Obama because I thought he would change the way Blacks were treated. The opposite actually happened when Obama and Biden created laws that filled our American prisons with Blacks. It’s true, look up Biden’s crime bill for example. The Democratic Party doesn’t even exist if it were not for Blacks and the Democratic Party is directly responsible for their current situation. Think about this.

      Democrats deliberately keep Blacks poor and needy of programs that keeps them poor and needy. I’m done with the Democratic Party and you should be too. America has become a welfare state and those democrat policies keep people poor, it’s true. A hand out instead of a hand up and many end up dead or in prison. The numbers don’t lie

    2. @Richard Cranium and Republicans don’t? Is that the narrative your going after?
      You know the prison reform bill has been sitting on Mitch McConnell desk for 5 years with bi-partisn support, He only signed it now because it made Trump and Republicans look like they care!

    3. a. barker, you’re the troll, you’re the non American from a distant land trying to persuade Americans. What you said is absolutely not true. It was Trump who by executive order nullified Biden’s crime bill because democrats wouldn’t help starting with Pelosi and Schumer. By the way, you’re original post is misleading as well. Trump has promised for years to fix social security and if re elected he will. Democrats, the exact opposite. Obama, 2 terms and nothing

    1. @Peter thanks…was just sayin’…most BOOMERS that I have talked too, agree that Trump is a huge POS. And fyi… J is just a troll that I have snarled at myself….probably some little pimple-face punk living in it’s parents basement, try to not let the trolls annoy you, not worth it. Vote, and stay safe 😁😎😁

  2. Number of people killed during protests this year: 30
    Number of people killed from t’rump giving up on the corona: 181,000
    ⚰️⚰️⚰️⚰️🏌️‍♂️⛳⚰️⚰️⚰️⚰️

    1. @Kevin Lee one more GOP expert wow you can’t fix stupid, this is why condoms, birth control,yes even abortions are importent

    2. Ro G
      The CDC admitted on 6% of those deaths are from covid alone.
      All the other 94% had other deadly health issues .

    1. After Trump’s *nazi supremacy regime* is defeated there should be a Presidential Corruption Commission, (with Indep. Prosecutors) to investigate BARR, Trump & GOP swamp crimes!

    1. Too bad for the Left, Kyle engaged in self defense, as all 3 men were the attackers/aggressors towards him…Leftism is a special kind of stupid

    2. @Bucky Pinata
      He might be able to claim that with the 2 who were trying to disarm him but not the first guy he took out with a head shot. Doesn’t matter though, Trump will pardon him like he did that Navy Seal who went rogue. The other seals didn’t even want to be on the same team with him, just the caliber for Trump.

    3. @Helen Patterson First guy chased him down, attacked hi with a weapon and tried then to take his gun…legally, a good shoot. Darwin won that night, 3-zero

    1. And In that City ? He had the AUDACITY to show not one bit of sympathy or remorse ,no EMPATHY what so ever ?? What a piece of garbage….May GOD FORGIVE HIM…

    1. Bucky Pinata
      Hmmm defending a racist 17 year old punk… his parents should be indicted too for parental negligence and manslaughter.
      A Drumpf University scholar you must be.
      Bless yer heart. Abortion is legal and constitutional… USE IT!

    2. What did the president do to incite violence? This is a false equivalence. You saw the news reel. He went there to support law enforcement and small business owners. That is true healing. Jacob was a criminal with outstanding warrants. Why should the president visit him?

  3. Most corrupt president in US history. Protests are under his watch. He is stoking the flames to try to get re-elected.
    If you think Trump supporters are sitting idly by, you are kidding yourselves. Dems and whoever else against trump’s corruption (from COVID to extortion to the fake economy to favoring Russia over Americans to making a profit from his office…) had better unify under one banner as of yesterday and get out the VOTE.a

    1. @shkspr78 s I’ll take that over Fascism 😂😂😂😂😂go Biden!!!now that the swamp’sdrained,let’s get THE REAL DISASE OUT OF THE white House!!!Biden2020!!!

    1. Bucky Pinata Troll. Fact Check is obviously ignored. If you want to judge rightly, all witnesses and videos must be investigated. Ignoring witnesses and films for the whole incident must be weighed by an unbiased judge and jurists.

  4. This isn’t hard
    He was illegally brandishing his gun
    Just by the fact that he was 17
    If someone illegally brandishes a gun on you…you have the right to self defence
    As the instigator, the person illegally brandishing cannot claim self defence. Even if he feared for his life. He is the instigator of a deadly threat and so deadly force can be used as self defence against him
    An armed robber cannot claim self defence in shooting a clerk who draws a gun on them even though he feared for his life

  5. How in the world does Spanky tRump get to talk smack about protesters, with him being the most lawless member of government?

  6. *I AM A PSYCHOLOGIST* that woman if correct – Trump is ADDICTED to violence…

    It will not end if he is reelected – it will get worse.

    1. @Bucky Pinata – Nothing to do with my post – but nice try to coopt the thread to your agenda. Btw. AS a psychologist, your ecuse making indicates a delusional attachement to Trump.

    2. @Francois Charbonneau – 2024 elections will be a sham that even Putin would not stoop to. Trump will in with a margin of 120% of the electorate.
      And these idiots on the right think that it will be a “Trump Dynasty” HAHAHAHAHA – NO – It will be a dictatorship. Trump will die, there will be a power vacuum and a general will win the power struggle – you think Don Jnr is going to outsmart a US General LOL
      So theyb are voting for a military dictatorship.

    1. The Realm
      Hi Ho, Hi Ho, no Peaceable Kingdom here.
      So, it’s off to wander in the Desert we go.
      There’s a battle for heaven going on.
      There are many FAL$E “profit$”
      There’s a glut of OIL sitting in tanker$
      In our harbors and oceans.
      It is not the preamble or constitution that they follow.
      Rather,
      It is the rule of Greed of Avarice, not the rule of Law
      Their motto.
      “We must prop-up the petrodollar$,To rule the world!”
      Our consequence?
      We, should remain alert to The false profits of greed!
      Who will plunder this World, Open it up, Like one big egg.
      Please, Stay safe.
