    1. Julius D. Fcknutz III that’s right keep lying! It’s gotten you this far with the hoax impeachment maybe if you lie enough about Trump you can actually impeach him

    2. ​@Xander Frandsen Oh no, you might be right! Quick, explain which part of it is actually based on false accusations!
      Here, lemme get the transcript, released by trump himself!
      https://www.npr.org/2019/09/25/764052120/read-transcript-of-president-trumps-call-with-ukraine-s-leader
      “The President: I would like you to do us a favor though because our country has been through a lot and Ukraine knows a lot about it. I would like you to find out what happened with this whole situation with Ukraine, they say Crowdstrike… I guess you have one of your wealthy people… The server, they say Ukraine has it. ”

      “…The other thing, there’s a lot of talk about Biden’s son, that Biden stopped the prosecution and a lot of people want to find out about that so whatever you can do with the Attorney General would be great. Biden went around bragging that he stopped the prosecution so if you can look into it… It sounds horrible to me.”

      Now please kindly explain how this isn’t extorting Ukraine for his own benefit, since he wouldn’t release the missiles or money until Biden was reported to be under investigation.
      Here, have Trump’s own ambassador explaining how it was, in fact, a quid pro quo:

      Make sure to use it to explain how there wasn’t a quid pro quo!

      Glad to be of help, buddy<3

    1. Trump is right, you know it – I know it, most everybody else knows it, the Senate knows it, and that just leaves Democrats who play a dirty game.

    2. @brian gardner what you talking about Vladimir?

    1. President of the Virgin Islands I bet 6 years ago you’d probably love the guy. Just the media likes to spit on there opponents like they used to do to blacks

    2. @CJ Max I have never loved Trump I’m old enough to remember the Central Park 5 and him trying to evict an old lady so he could tear down her house and build a parking lot for his limousines. He is a criminal and human scum.

    1. Yet still he won’t be removed and your perfect impeachment won’t have your perfect ending and he will win reelection in 2020!

    2. @Jam Who so why are Republicans complaining about “process” when McConnell is coordinating with the White House council about the impeachment?

    1. Клюев Сергей I propose a 1 for 1 swap, dems for immigrants since immigrants love the USA more. After all, immigrants chose the USA… did they not?

    2. @Maha Tiki Cat
      How do immigrants love America more if America was created from immigrants ??

      We are all immigrants you dope.

  1. The only one trivializing impeachment is the person who acts like a buffoon and has called it a “witch hunt” over 300 times.

    1. Walt Schmidt is that low iq Wally. You take a few days off. We really do miss your brand of stupid. I enjoy trying to decipher your incoherent ramblings. Laughable little Wally

    1. @Alessia C***** …I am a Trump Supporter. WHY? Because he gets things DONE. He moved the US Embassy to Jerusalem. In 1993 Californians started building the Southern Border WALL. Many Presidents have tried to complete this project including Obama. President Trump is a pragmatist and will get it DONE. He has just allocated $8 Billion to Black and Hispanics for Housing and Education. Made all schools free to these groups. Gave a second chance to prisoners. Confronted the debt ridden US Economy and continues to make Deals which favor the US and its People. If you beleive in the US People then this is your President.

    2. Disgusted with constant one sided attacks with zero bi-partisan support. THAT, my dear friend is the WORST thing possible.

  2. “It was a perfect phone call”… “He didn’t even know what we were talking about”… not so perfect then was it?

    1. I was thinking exactly that. If the call was perfect, why was pres. Z. not aware what you all were talking about?

    1. @omi god He has gained millions since his inauguration. And the population of one city doesn’t mean squat. America is a Republic, not a mob rule democracy.

    2. @Walt Schmidt Nonsense. Trump’s poll numbers have never rising to even 50%.
      Regardless of your opinion regarding 3 million voters, Trump cannot claim a mandate.

    3. @omi god Are those the same polls that said Hillary was going to win in a landslide? Polls are deliberately manipulated in order to manipulate public opinion. People will vote for Trump because their bank accounts tell them to. The democrats have no viable candidate and an incumbent President almost NEVER LOSES when the economy is doing good. Our economy isn’t good, our economy is GREAT…

    4. @Walt Schmidt In the days right before the election, the polls showed the Presidential contest as being too close to call. Both candidates were within the margin of error, and NO ONE was calling it a “landslide for Hillary”. You’re inventing a history that did not happen. Nor are the polls referred to by the legitimate media contrived to manipulate public opinion. You are either uninformed or you are simply lying.

    1. Maha Tiki Cat

      I didn’t say you weren’t born here. I said this country was populated and build up by people who came from overseas. People don’t grow on trees in this country. Historically and physically every family in the US has roots overseas, even native Americans. We are all immigrants. All of us.

    2. Biggus, I see you still haven’t learned anything yet. Keep watching, lol. There wouldn’t be any Dems left to run in 2020. Indictments should occupy most of their time between now and then. This continues to be fun to see.

  3. This president is actively destroying our country shame on u Mr president! You are suppose to unite us not divide us! Worst president ever!!!!

    1. @Palaven BoJo is clearly well educated and intelligent (despite the buffoon act), but gauging from past prevarication, I don’t think he is a particularly moral person.

    2. @digital1 ministry9 Not all his supporters are klansmen. Some are having their interests met. And other are just highly gullible.

    3. @Xander Frandsen You can repeat the “no Facts’ and “hearsay” talking points all you like but it will never make it true. Your questions have been answered repeatedly yet you clearly refuse to accept them. Now that the facts have presented themselves the whistleblower is no longer needed, again thanx to dump and his followers the whistleblower needs to be protected fearing for his/her life, that’s dump lawlessness for you. All you’ve done is provide evidence of why we don’t want to have anything to do with people who behave in the dump manner.

    1. @Maha Tiki Cat That’s a lie… 45 Obama / 42 Trump. And sweety don’t forget.. your Orange leader has never ever been above 50

    2. Stupidity of mindless zombies being misled by House Dems who make up versions in alternate realities is NOT a good thing. Wake up.

    3. @Idylchatter Thank you and so true. trump and the GOP need to pack and go live in Russia and they would love it there..”basically authoritarian rule” under Putin! If trump and the GOP demand and want that then move out of the U.S…not going to get your “dictator demands” here!

    4. @R. McBride Only about 38% of the entire country are now Republicans…and that support trump. So even if 90% of Republicans still support trump they are still only 38% of the population in the U.S.

    5. @olobar5 No that would be the GOP at these hearings that “make up versions in alternate realities fake news, fake facts, conspiracy theories and hateful “lying accusations” about others yet claim trump pure and perfect? You are being like trump and the GOP, you are “projecting”. What planet are you on? The Democrats spent plenty of time showing “factual evidence and proof” if you can’t handle the truth, evidence and facts that is your issue..the GOP spent “plenty of time” last night with delaying and trying to change amendments and having lashing out ‘fest” and had planned on doing it through the whole night. Nadler and the rest of the Democrat judiciary caught on to that and so ended it until this morning. The GOP only whined and complained about that because Nadler caught on to their “game plan”..

  4. I’m sorry, you don’t get to tell everyone NOT to testify and you won’t testify to the AMERICAN people. You won’t dare go in front of Congress and spout the same lies because that would be another article of impeachment.

    1. Trump does not dare, on hysterical advice of his attorneys and staff, show up any where to testify under oath. He is so pathological he can’t help himself. He lies just for the sake of lying. He would be convicted instantly.

    2. @Maha Tiki Cat If we want the law to be applied we have to trade for it? I’d say that constituted a bribe as well.

    1. @Kip McEwen
      Boris Johnson won an election because the majority of the British people voted for him.
      The person with the most votes wins. That’s democracy. The US should maybe try it.

  5. Is anybody else tired of having to lower their mind to a third-grader’s just try to make any sense out of this liar’s babbling?

    1. 🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️ (me raising my hand)

    2. Trump speeches and rants pretty much consists of the same words and even same sentences. Now and then he uses a ‘difficult’ word or a new word. But with his also limited ability for reasoning and use of drugs he often makes no sense.
