    1. @chonota01 Trump has already cheated and criminally tried to rig the election but despite that, he WILL NOT WIN. Biden/Harris 2020!

    3. Trump will have Barr arrest Biden and Harris on TRUMPED up charges….like all the dictators do…..you wanna bet he’ll do it???

  1. Michael Cohen looks like a new person having come clean. I don’t root for the guy, but I believe him, and he looks like a demon left him.

    1. @David Hale lol who cares it was a freaking hair cut, you idiots wont even wear masks or do social distancing, so stupid lol, I could careless if shes lying, Trump lies every time he opens his mouth.

    2. Out of all of the formal Trump employees that have written tell all books, Michael Cohen is the only one that I strongly believe for some strange reason.

  2. Imagine the day when the news isn’t about trump and we can all sleep because we feel safe… Vote the orange horror out! 🌊🌊🌊

    1. @Donee Stoner Yes. Look what the media have done to you. And after the election nothing will change no matter who is elected because the media will find someone else to blame for all the Democrat failures😭😭😭😭.

    2. Gordon Dwyer it’s so sad that you can see and hear how horrible trump is and still blame the media. You need deprogrammed.

    3. @Biden For President Deprogramming 😳. Fancy word used by the KGB in the old Soviet Union in the 1960s and 1970s for the brain washing used against people who disagreed with them. Not surprised a Democrat would support such a policy against people they don’t like.

    1. @Mark Workman anything will be better then the last 4 years of lies, deaths, lining his own pockets and hates anyone and everyone .. he wants to be king

    2. @Whicker Boy “what question?”

      The question that I asked you.

      See the comment that you just replied to, where I typed ‘answer the question’ ?
      It’s that one.
      The question in that comment.
      That you just replied to.

  3. So everybody is lying about Trump huh? All the books that have been written about him are basically the same theme. He’s an racist, has the attention span of a toddler, doesn’t care about anything, etc. Good Lord how many books have come out about this man in his first term as President? Every President has books written about them usually after their term is up, but Trump is a special case because he is so corrupt & amoral.

    1. +7271103165 uh huh. And? So the orange cloud hovering over the horizon has to go. The mist will disappear among the masses so that we can come together, combat the enemy( the virus),release the seeds of hate and then rebuild together as 1 nation, under God with liberty and justice for …….. WHO?…..
      All people, All
      VOTE
      BLUE.

  4. His Father taught him no boundaries, just instilled in him do what you have to, to win no matter who you have to tread on,

    1. While I agree, Nixon committed a huge crime literally a few days or so before being elected. Not much different of a crime than Trump committed thinking about it.

  5. *It takes a brave man to admit his wrong doings while a weak man hides his.*

    *👉 **#TYCohen** for your honesty now 👍*

    1. @pearl louise
      The topic is about Cohen going to prison instead of trump.
      trump sets people up to take the fall for him.
      Cohen’s honesty, as you say, consists of telling the truth about trump.
      Quite a few folks have been indicted covering for trump. Is that news for you?

    2. To error is human…….to not correct it, is just bad craftsmanship. One of the few people in this train wreck, to stand up, tell the truth, and take the hit. I applaud Michael, he has more guts than most. Michael is one of the few winners in this fiasco.

  6. “Mr. President, do you know what Putin thinks of you?”
    “No, what?”
    “He thinks you’re a sucker.”
    “NOOOOOO!”

    1. @H.S. Levine hey dude I’ll get right on that I’ll try and recreate what it looks like in Portland right now I mean there’s gas flying around everywhere. Maybe you have a better effect on the right side that it does on the left. What do you think what’s your educated answer to that? Can you please enlighten us with all of your wisdom since we can tell that you’re probably very successful in life and you also sound very very intelligent, an IQ similar to Einstein or Joe Biden cuz he seemed super intelligent. Please enlighten us oh wise one

    2. RTussenIO And you actually had a conversation with Putin or spied on him to gather that childish , immature information ??? So sad how America has become so ignorant

  7. *I don’t think Cohen is lying. What he says correlates with everything Trump’s relatives, employees, ghost writers, WH staff and contractors all said.*

    1. @Cat VanSancina oh really? And why do the “others’ say what they are saying? It is all a big conspiracy against trump right?

    1. @angelaggie dom They are religious people whom are following the lead of their ministers and Churches to run our government. They are brainwashed 😱😱

    2. Many of the supporters are decent and intelligent people, many are my friends. Cohen is right, it’s more like a cult. While we don’t understand, we have to be real about what it is and react accordingly. VOTE…and contribute $$ if you can to causes that restore respect to our house and country.

  8. I like how the White house points out he’s a convicted felon but doesn’t mention he committed those felonies for the President

    1. @joyce roberts And he was senselessly attacked and ostracized for it, the GOP is not the party of values, it is the party of a cult.

    2. @Gordon Dwyer You can’t separate Cohen’s crimes from Trump who ordered them. That is a ridiculous argument, even if you do read poetry! You can’t disregard all the stories of many who worked closely with Trump, he is a cheater and a liar, unworthy of the office he somehow holds.

    1. Steve Hebert so you’re be one those trump supporters who pledge allegiance to a fat orange Hitler wannabe instead of to the USA.

    2. Ray Mccomas no trump hater is misguided, it’s the trump cult that is misguided. Those of us who believe our own ears and eyes , instead of what trump tells us we should believe despite the proof that he’s a traitor , are true patriots .

  9. A Message to the Cadet Bonespur’s supporters:
    “It is easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled” — Mark Twain

    1. #45✳ *repeatedly* denigrated ‘illegal’ immigrants at his FL rally last year, esj…then *LAUGHED* at his followers cries of “Shoot them!”
      The *worst* part of it…?
      Looking past #45✳’s right shoulder during that *DISGUSTING* display…at *the two small children* hearing those words as they’re spoken, and how *visibly confused (and frightened) they become* as the crowd jeers along.
      Like the little blonde girl at his ill-willed 2019 rally in NC, looking bewilderedly at the ‘adults’ surrounding her, as they *SHOUT “Send her back!”, over and over.*
      *THAT* is #45✳’s *LURID* ‘legacy’, *preserved FOREVER* on video, for historians to document with sorrow and dismay.
      #45✳ – *SO* embarrassing for America… 😒

    2. @jason cole If the greatest generation were replaced with the crowd watching MSNBC, Germany would have won the war period.

  10. I’m a non American.
    It was apparent to me, from the onset, Trump would be an incompetent president.
    His primary aim was simply to get into the White House to satiate his huge ego and to prove to everyone that he could “buy” his position as America’s leader.

    His devious, Machiavellian character has been established since the 80s but his current actions are showing all the signs of a psychopath!

    He doesn’t follow any political party.
    His political agenda is power and self preservation.

    He is a very dangerous man, causing extreme damage to the unity of the United States whilst also undermining America’s position with its long-standing allies.

    1. @balmain2002 if I say anything to a dog or cat, I don’t expect an intelligent response. For the same reason, I’ll refrain from any more dialogue with you beyond this message.

    2. I remember that WhitE House correspondents dinner which is supposed to be a fun, light hearted event. Trump was in the crowd, and Obama mocked him and his reality TV show. Understandable as Trump was always undermining him with the birth certificate thing.
      The crowd loved it. But you could see Trump at his table, seething, with a slight smirk. No doubt thinking how he would avenge this night of humiliation at the hands of a black President.
      Sad.

    3. @falconeaterf15 oh yeah, Trump was plotting his revenge on a boring, non – comedic know – nothing flea like Obama….

    1. Well of course you wouldn’t because …. uh .. mmm….errr ….. aaaahhhh….. uuunmmm… well he’s actually a really nice guy🤣

    1. Trump is so bad my parents compare me to Trump when I’m the farthest thing from Trump. I hate what Trump has done to America and that was long before he ran for president. Getting on the birther train and his disgusting behavior with his children. Trump should make most Americans ashamed for being American.

    2. Split is probably putting it mildly! I imagine many divorces, which can be very harmful, and I would not be surprised to hear of assaults and even murders!

    3. That is sad indeed, but Trump will care not a whit about that. Just as he puts the USA behind his own selfish gains. He is the worst of all modern day national ‘leaders’. I would put him ahead of even Mugabe!
      A vile pustulating example of the very worst of our species.

    4. Same here.. It is really disgusting what he has done to this country.. He is using the old mantra of ‘divide and conquer’.. Unfortunately he has divided us.. But I think he is finding the ‘conquer’ part to be more of a challenge than he is capable of.. heh heh heh
