I’d like to thank the democrat party for getting Trump re elected. THANK YOU.
McCloskey _01 we got proof everything is getting declassified
Alex C like what exactly? Please tell me!
McCloskey _01 Them trying to cover up political information into a clasified server is the Watergate cover up literally all over again….
Why do you say in late september like it was along time ago? It was like 3 days man…chill out!
this video was probably recorded weeks ago lol
Its still late September
CNN desperate
They have Trump dementia – they still think its 2016
I think it’s because people might watch this later. Weeks, months, etc. so he was just recapping the time frame for future viewers
Chris Cilizza IS Hunter Biden
The whole thing is likely only to work to destroy Joe Biden and the Democrats.
Doubt it.
Biden won’t be charged, but yeah, this may cost them votes.
Evan West I bet you doubted the results of the last election as well… right up until election time… lol
Ahh, Chris’s voice went high again. Guess he put something back on the shelf.
Yeah, his balls.
@michaelthemovieman I urge all liberals to put a garbage bag over your head and tie it tight you will find what you are looking for
Now the burden of proof falls on Pelosi and the accusers.
@Owlman 52 hit the nail on the head
Lane Kelly don’t jinx it
Proof? Who needs proof?
Yeah, that’d be a heavy load to lift IF Trump hadn’t already provided a blatantly self-incriminating transcript for them to use as Exhibit A.
This will not pass the Senate and is doomed to failure because of that.
@Real Christian. Do you FEEL that GOD will let UNREPENTANT GAYS into HEAVEN … is there a special BUTTHOLER Section reserved for the HOMOSEXUAL ?
President of the Virgin Islands hahahhhhahha hahahhahahahhahahahhahahahhahahahhahahhahahhahahahahahhahahahahahhahahahha
Real Christian. Real Christian ayy? Talking about pedophiles but turns back to the ones in our own church.
the Democrats think impeachment is some kind of schnapps
Lol I got 5 buckaroos that nothing happens to this guy plus how long does this take impeach
It will tale forever because our POTUS is clean as a whistle. Do you think we didnt vet jim all the way from infancy. We knew the dirty dems would do this. Our potus is Mr.Clean
Your a dumbass if you believe Trump is getting locked up..
@iSweatGlitter lmaooo you are so confused with life general. I hope you can get it together by 2020, dont want you raging out.
Impeachment is not here ! Never went to floor for vote this is how stupid these people are they cannot proceed on Nancys stupid statement it’s all null and void
@SuicidePar Such a big bwave Ex-marine! Sounds like ya spent too much time around this guy…when he was on active duty – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vLqHv0xgOlc
@Jinjyo ni Shoubu first of all, the guy who I was responding to WAS. Trump supporter
@Tyler Kochman Then I apologize to you, that is my bad.
So Pelosi is gonna get her 6 “Mean Girls” to try and bully the House into an impeachment vote while the rest of us watch. lol
@Eric Wood you haven’t been civil in your comments. Ooops.
@Eric Wood dude, do you even realize what you’re saying? Do you not think the left fits into the same category.
@Eric Wood We did read the Mueller report. It said Trump and Campaign never knowingly cooperated with the Russians. That’s why fake news CNN completely forgot it was ever published.
@Eric Wood Yeah… you know… I kinda did… you know… not the whole thing… because that’s 400ish pages… but I read good sections of it… I downloaded the PDF and looked at it…
Know what I found… A conflicted person… He say’s Trump isn’t guilty… but also “not PROVEN innocent”.
You don’t need to prove innocence… You are innocent until proven guilty.
He tries to set up a case for Obstruction of justice. Why? He can’t nab him as guilty. He also is unwilling to make the call that HE IS obstructing justice… The House was unwilling to try him for it…
That should tell you… there is something going on here… it’s called opinion and no evidence.
Show me something in there that proves he’s guilty of something impeachable.
Have you read any of it? or just watched CNN and what they say?
Do nothing burgers taste that good…..you seem to like making them.
with a side of soy
au bone broth
Another fake news witch hunt. Another waste of time and money.
@Xavier Elizondo Screenshot Sent to the FBI.org
Violated the constitution this dumbfuck said
@Xavier Elizondo I have 3 siblings currently working for the FBI. Prove me wrong
I believe this as much as I believe beto is coming for my AR-15. Lol
@Frank Heuvelman I ain’t got no family lol but if looks like you need to check in to a mental hospital lol they can take my 300 black out from my cold dead hands after I put up as much of a fight as I can! I promise you that!
Any of the people belive anything cnn says?
Cadre Deux ehhhh I don’t even trust that
Only watch cnn for comic relief
@Cadre Deux I wouldn’t bet on it
Sure i use what’s called common sense that you MAGA supporters seem to be lacking, the clocks ticking on poor little Donnie.
@Brent Fox yeah…clock on reelection… liberal losers will be crying again come November… wait and see
Watched Adam Stiff today – another embarrassment for the left.
From the standpoint of water.
His face is like old pudding
Impeachment has been happening for the past 3 years…lol
He should just quit on his own. The white_house is a joke.
@Barbara Henderson why he’s an innocent man..
He has done more for the black community than Barack Obama..!!
@latinlingo 25 You know trump did absolutely nothing about the white supremacists? Go on troll get we don’t won’t your kind round here!
Brent Fox Lmao you’re so dumb
If even 1 day! Too long! Thanks for wasting more of my money on another nothing burger! I feel sorry for those who believe this “So Called”, news Network.
U r stupid.
@Syphon Gamer you are stupid for believing the lies from Democrats and CNN. Adam Schiff was on C-Span reading a fake transcript trying to pass it off as the real thing. when will you wake up and smell the coffee?!?! the so-called whistle-blower… never had first hand knowledge of Trump’s conversation. as it turns out, they were CIA planted in the White House to spy on a sitting President. has Liberals gone crazy or are they going along with the lies because they dont like Trump?
#FakeOutrage
And then Trump releases the transcripts and the whistleblower complaint, and the Democrat’s look like idiots…
@Rodney Boehner except it made it clear he put them under pressure and didn’t at all exonerate him at all? Are you a dumbass? I think you’re a dumbass
You quiero mi “nada burger” con queso, por favor!!
