Samantha Power On President Donald Trump, Russia, And Bill Taylor | The Last Word | MSNBC
Bone spurs wants someone else to fight, abandons America’s allies to be murdered, blackmails another president and thinks he’s won! 🤢🤢🤢😡😡😡
He made sure to start a war, before he left, though. We’re becoming a Pariah State, who cannot be trusted, economically, politically, OR Militarily. From the Iran deal, to the Paris Accord; from NAFTA to the Kurds. We just break our word, and leave DEATH in our wake
President BONE SPURS believes that he is a stable genius with unmatched wisdom. Yes,those are his words. Only people with severe narcissistic personality disorders or other mental conditions would say such a thing.

Hello.
D. Drumpf im told thought this all was a great idea because he loves salad. And prefers russian dressing. Also hes bug on thanksgiving. Which is also good with dressing (stove top). He thought about kurds Nd decided cheese gives him gas, he hats bret farve and doesent want to drive to wisconsin to get them. NO BRAINER.
And “wha la”. Hes been told congradulations good job success and by alot of people. Alot of people he hears. Alotnof people are saying.
Good luck.
What a contrast between the people Obama chose to serve with, and people the donald chose to serve him. On one side, poised, serene, brainy and utterly competent professionals serving their country with integrity. At the side of donald, each and everyone he hires is a thug and all that implies…
Just look at mnuchin, a wall street thug who profited from the 2008 crisis. Flynn, who is a traitor working for foreign governments, Cohen, who is now serving jail time for crimes he committed at the behest of Trump…the list GOES ON and ON!!
Add Pompeo, whose political career was funded from Day 1 by the Kochs. Toadie from the start.
dirac bracket birds of a feather flock together . Honest decent people would never mesh together with crooks & criminal . Would never stay together in the same room let alone working for them . With that being said its only another garbage & con artist that works for dotard .
Barr, who covered up Iran-Contra. Manafort, who worked with pro-Putin Ukraine Kremlin oligarchs. On and on and on. Like a who’s who of thugs that haven’t been arrested yet.
He lied all over the place in that speech about Syria.
Kremlin troll….
@Shadow Mist Calm yourself, Russian. No one, not even you, can reasonably believe your bs propaganda.

it’s better to point out when he tells the truth, which is very rare. constant lying is normal for the orange thing.
Appreciate your work but I think it might be helpful anyway to point out that in this upcoming election we all have to vote is the most important right we have As Americans and this is the most dire time during my lifetime course I guess I was a two-year-old when Cuban Missile Crisis was going on but this is pretty serious so I might mention to vote
Eric B
👏👏👏👏👍👍
She wants to armed “the moderate “again ?!!!!
Oh yeah Trumps got one of his tacky hotels in Turkey
Bed bug hotels!
It’s the first thing I thought about when he pulled that rug out from under the Kurds. I wish that were being investigated immediately as a prime factor in his decision making (it always seems to be, doesn’t it? “How does this affect me and only me?”)!!
bed bugs there too? gross
Free the Trump bedbugs!
President BONE SPURS with UNMATCHED WISDOM believes he is a STABLE GENIUS. What a JOKE president.
@Jim666 Can’t vote for Trump and follow Jesus. Hence, conservative Christian is an oxymoron.
@Merrilou Neigenfind Very well said sister
@Merrilou Neigenfind Well there are a lot of people pretending to be Christian the VP for example.

Samantha Power has a very strong and positive long view. It is heartening.
Really? How about spying on American Citizens? You’re OK with that?

She knew we would abandon the Kurds. We were just using them as a proxy force. To be forgotten about soon as they were no longer useful.
Trump is a convenient clown to blame everything on.
@william willie Abandoned the Kurds? Didn’t Fake News tell you? Seems the Kurds are pretty happy with Trump.

@Saltponds239 OMG YOU ARE STUPID! UN- FUC^$%ng REAL how dumb you are!!!!!!!! General Mazloum only (not the Kurds) are thanking him for time to escape a crisis HE (TRUMP) created!!!!!! O M G you are a very very very very STUPID human. Do you sometimes forget to breathe?
Trumpturd and the GOP(utin) have blood on their hands
So I guess you are OK with Samantha unmasking American citizens?
https://www.redstate.com/elizabeth-vaughn/2019/05/25/samantha-powers-unmasked-260-americans-2016-soon-well-learn/
@Saltponds239 lmao
@Thomas V.I just wonder why a Ambassador to the UN had to unmask over 200 people for the Intelligence community? Looks like Clapper and Brennan will be seeing Mr. Durham shortly. They were told yo bring their attorney’s.
What an amazing lady…, we all… all of us nations are greatly the better for her work and service to the US and the planets free peoples…🤔🙏🌹
Never thought we would have to take down the republican party, to grapple with a would be Tyrant!!!!
Don’t forget he has also threatened civil war. The darkness could get a whole lot darker
If Obama did something like this the Republicans would have had him ousted in less than a year.
Richard Johnsen
Please… Don’t hurt the Senate Majority Leader’s feelings.
It appears that the President of the United States of America is a Russian asset. Just look at everything he does.
@Jane Bthey obviously just jerk each other off… What a herd of mindless morons…
@Never Again Ya think? So why have 3 impeachment votes already failed in the House? If it is so obvious, why are the Dems leaving a Russian asset in the White House for so long?

I suppose a legal scholar could one day save enough for the down payment. A book deal for a former president would help, too.
@Saltponds239 Don’t worry about it. You run along to the voting booth. We will catch you there in 2020. Just a couple things with the constitution we need to look after. Promise we will catch up.
Measured, intelligent, level headed. Run for the presidency!
This 3 years DEBACLE prooves that : the elected are totally disconnect from the american people. BERNIE SANDERS 2020!!!
a lot of sand, he’s claiming victory again over a crisis he started. This needs to end and now. get him out of there.
Trump started? Talk about head in the sand. We were supposed to be there for 30 days and it turned into 5 years.
@Saltponds239 there was no conflict before the removal of the US troops.
The presence of US troops would turn any invasion in an act of war against the US, once they were removed the killing started in less than 24h
@Rafiki There’s no conflict now you dope. Didn’t Fake News tell you? The Kurds are happy with Trump’s help
https://www.newsweek.com/kurds-thank-trump-someone-else-syria-1467302
Trump’s victory was indeed a victory.. for Russia. As a Russian asset, he is doing a great job for Russia. He is destroying America one decision at a time while doing everything he can as president to Make Russia Great Again.
Yes, another Trump victory. We are winning “so bigly” aren’t we? Once again, Trump’s master, Vlad Putin gets his way!
The comedy club is getting full with all these clowns.
2:12 “at least for now’…
