  1. this guy is just a flip flopping snake. He wants to be whatever team is winning in whatever way is possible. Trump definitely should be held accountable to the very end.

    1. Buster Smith
      Trump went on a death-row killing spree. I’m sure he didn’t have any problem making sure that there was accountability for those crimes.
      He believes that everyone should be held accountable except him and his family.

      The first reason given not to impeach Trump was that he would wear impeachment as a badge of honor. That was a lie and a bit of reverse psychology.

      Then there was the not so veiled threat that if impeachment proceeded, there would be violence from his supporters to those who voted for it. That didn’t prevent the impeachment in the House.

      The next claim was that impeachment would cause division and prevent the country from healing, as if that mattered to them before. Mitt Romney said it best when he said the best way to begin to unite and to heal the country is to tell Trump supporters the truth: Trump lost the election and Biden won fair and square. They, of course, don’t want to do that, even though it’s lies that have divided the country.

      Lindsay Graham is now saying flat out to scrap any impeachment trial in the Senate, since Trump will no longer be in office.

    2. @Tom brown For WHAT??????Name ONE Actual crime committed by them.If you had six years to waste,you could spend every second listing just SOME of Trump’s evil acts.

    3. @AT 1984 It does not work for everyone, but I have several friends that were finally able to get healthcare insurance, and are very glad of it. The individual mandate is what helps to pay for it…all insurance is a pyramid scheme/risk pool. The more people don’t pay in when they are young and healthy, the more expensive it’s going to be. So by removing that, all tRump did was ensure it would be more expensive. The insurance companies are for-profit, and no one is going to legislate their profits. Until that happens, it’s going to be more expensive than anyone wants. But, with Obamacare, its going to be possible…something that has not been done before. My insurance is over $9000 a year, by the way, and it is not through Obamacare. It’s ludicrous.

      As far as not being accepted? That was something they couldn’t get into the law, but hopefully will in the next couple of years. Just wait and see how many republicans come out against that as “socialism,” “lack of choice,” or some other such nonsense, as they see their precious profits being threatened. My mom had Medicare, and a supplement she paid for. Without it, she could not have paid for a fraction of what hospitalization cost over the years. What they charge is unconscionable. The system is broken all around.

      But the point was not whether you personally liked Obamacare, it was rather that Biden helped to get it passed, illustrating my point that he had done something to enrich Americans’ lives. I think making it possible for people to get insurance when they previously could not qualifies.

    4. @Don Eachus If Obamacare is so great, why didn’t the politicians get it themselves including Obama & Biden? All of the politicians have a so called Cadillac plan but force a bad plan on the rest of us. Who are they to tell me what to buy? This is the USA. Let the people choose whether to get it or not, why force it on me? Where is my freedom to say No? The insurance companies are also in bed with the Democrats, not just the GOP. They’re also donors to the Democrat party. Look at the Pfizer vaccine rollout. Pfizer waited until after the election to roll out the vaccine. I’d like a straight answer from a politician rather than being lied to about how the ”ACA” is great when the opposite is true. Please stop defending the indefensible.

    5. @AT 1984 I never said that Obamacare was perfect, or that it didn’t need further refining, expanding, and acceptance, did I? Read more carefully, I guess. I made my point. Your comments are completely off-topic for the conversation at hand. Be well.

  2. It’s all about puttin them needles into them arms n everythin when you have that kind of pandurmic going on and everything… (Idiocracy Governor)

    1. Ha ha. You nail the man, Lon! By all that’s holy, phui he stinks (almost on a par with Trump) 🐽👀

  3. “well what we did was took Trump up on his bribe and paid them the money to get the vaccines sent to our state first and everything…”

    This guy is trash. Switching parties when it benefits you in the moment and not because of having any principles you believe in is cowardly. Also people who speak and end every sentence with “and everything” or “and stuff” are typically not very intelligent. Truth is this guy just had the cash and old family money to run and be elected for office.

  4. Justice isn’t for justice after all. Something.tells me if someone attempted to steal his hotel, he wouldn’t just say “Let bygones be bygones.”

    1. @Upper 90 You only think you have more facts. President Biden has put out a mask mandate which trump should have done from the time he knew how bad covid was. I’d say that is starting from scratch. You certainly have proven you’re a troll.

    2. @Billkwando you ever here of the double douse people are supposed to take, everyone is going to have to take 2 two doses. I mean the lack of intellect you have is truly 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

    3. @Diane Hooper congratulations he’s making people wear masks when they’re already wearing masks 👍 I mean do you people even think before you speak.

    1. @Tom brown Ah, but they didn’t incite the insurrection on the Capitol building. It was your guys and the Proud Boys. Don’t even bring up the BLM or anti fascist people being there as they were not.

    2. @Diane Hooper nope i don’t excuse what they did at the capital even if there were Antifa people mixed in. the true insurrection started under Obama and his corruption of the entire government. 4yrs of lying fraudulent investigation based on nothing with nothing proven and a waste of millions of taxpayer dollars, they should all be in prison. insurrection LOL

    3. @Tom brown – you have verified proof that ANTIFA was involved in the insurrection with that rabid mob who attacked the seat of Democracy in our country?! If you do please presented it so we can all see it!

    4. @THE ANGRY QUAD Ya cause all the lunatic left and their 90 percent left wing media along with censorship tech did was use them like throw away trash for an election. The swamp has been refilled .

    1. @Huib Rijntjes Brainless Trump used twitter to get you morons to break the law, and some of you are going to pay the price. Meanwhile, he gets away with murder. He did say he could shoot someone and get away with it. Well, well see.

  5. Imagine if this wasn’t a professional politician, but a professional physician.
    “I see you have skin, eyes, hair and everything.”

    1. @Tom brown OK go on then how many, with links and facts that would stand up in court, or is it just more BS, let me guess you got this from Fox. Your ‘lunatic left’ will probably save you life and your economy and your probably on the affordable care act health provision. Go on lie, make up your conspiracy, huh what? WHO’S THE SNOWFLAKE NOW 🙂

  6. So this guy will change his colors to stay in power. He should switch the the Chameleon Party then he won’t have to switch party’s so often.

  7. He need to be held accountable for all his deeds. He is not a child he knew what he was doing so governor don’t give us that crap!

    1. Joe hairy legs tries to brainwash the People with sweet lies, the fake media used and using as a weapon. Won’t work.

    1. You know if it was the left doing it it would be called mostly peaceful protesting. I can see the headlines now freedom fighters redecorate DC with molotovs

    2. @Larry J Notice how none of the rioters during the George Floyd protests tried to overthrow the government? Some business were trashed and a lot of Nikes were stolen, but thats about the extent of it

    3. @Tom brown did you not see those thousands rushing the Capitol, that’s an insurrection. Thats the attempt to stop the count of the electoral votes. They were shouting death threats “Pence, were coming for you!” if not an insurrection, what was it? A bunch of good people just wanting their voices heard?

    4. @Larry J what world do you live on where what happened on Jan 6th was not an insurrection. If the Left did this, they would have been shot dead.

    1. @adat smith – as well as little marco rubio, slimy ted cruz, pathetic lindsey graham, rabid josh holley, et al!

  8. So according to that Governor, after egregious crimes are committed, we should all just move on, forgive and forget. NO, in order to move on, those whom committed those crimes must be held accountable or the crimes will be repeated by them or others like them.
