    1. @Zachary Fluke how does a tan suit qualify as racism? You all wouldn’t know racism it it even existed. UNESCO 1950’s, there aren’t any races, therefore… Nobody can b called a racist. TRUMP 2020. But Hillary still hates blacks.

    2. @Nancy Rocks what’s a goose step..?? How does one believe a goose step..?? What do you and a goose have to do a president that cannot spell anyway..??

  1. The real excitement is yet to come!

    “I am not part of whatever drug deal Sondland and Mulvaney are cooking up.”

    Bolton’s not going to prison for the orange clown.

    1. @Nancy Rocks respectfully dissagree. why are so many high level people that worked for trump going to prison. trump is a mob boss and his captains are getting locked up. once trump is out of office he will be facing a lot of charges. be well.

    2. Yes the excitement is on the way my friend, the IG report, followed by the Barr Durham investigations! Can’t wait! Not going to be good for the blue clowns!

    3. @Nancy Rocks Nancy Rocks for Brains, can you please tell me how many trump associates have been found guilty of crimes during all of this?

      Are you dumb enough to suggest that trump is such a stand up guy that just happens to surround himself with lying cheaters who keep going to prison?

      Jesus women, get educated or something. You’re an embarrassment to the female species.

  2. *Abuse of Power: using the office of the presidency to gain advantage over a political rival for your own personal political gain*

    1. @Mike Keene keep ignoring the evidence until we hang you all for Treason… You can laugh all the way to the gallows about how dumb we are

    1. @James Carter lolwut?
      Police abuse and killings?
      ” a SONG WHOSE LYRICS ORIGINATED IN RACISM that this country calls it’s national anthem.”

      Stop hitting the pipe. You don’t have the brain cells to spare.

    1. @Adam Crawford He was questioned by the commission he created to review. Maybe if her were deposed his memory would’ve been better? Funny thing is, he later admitted to knowing the answers to the questions he could “not recall”.

    2. @Luis Alberto Rodriguez Goff I dress myself, unlike you. I’m supervise myself, again, unlike you. Don’t worry about me. Worry about your sanity, now, and after Nov. 2020, when Trump is re-elected.

  3. “I don’t really know the president, I met him once, we had the most beautiful chocolate cake ever, but I didn’t talk to him, I saw him on TV once. No collusion.”

    1. I find this man Barr to be disgusting, and not ever deserving praise in any way from real..American Patriots.

    2. That’s usually how these denials go and they get away with it. White privilege is a double edged sword though. Erodes trustworthiness that you were incompetent enough to use it.

  4. Amnesia always comes in handy when they feel nervous about answering a question that requires the truth.

    1. @quest 77051 The person was talking about amnesia and Comey had a bad case of it when he testified. You seriously don’t think he is under investigation? He sure is only with a real criminal investigation. I know they refuse to talk about it on CNN but he is in Durham’s cross-hairs as we speak. He signed 3 of the FISA requests and Horowitz has already recommended charges against him from his first 83 page report which Barr has not acted on yet. Comey is going to go down hard the arrogant traitor.

    2. @Gregg i’ve checked hard core right wing news like fox and they are not talking about comey being under investigation either. be well.

    1. @Vic Padilla yes I know that you also understand that is why there is so much hate against him as well because Hillary would have helped to push the NWO onto us even more than obama was.

    1. @Make it simple Don’t you see the irony here ? You go by the name – Make it simple – while wondering at what temperature pop corn pops – I mean who cares – just eat the pop corn – sit back enjoy the movie —–> jobs ! highest numbers – Wall Street highest numbers – lower taxes . . .

      That’s the big picture here – don’t you think this whole impeachment drama is disingenuous considering many Congress people like Al Green, Maxine Waters . . . Have been talking impeachment for the last 3 years . . .

      Now about what when & how
      Bottom line – according to the Constitution – is there a serious crime ? All this was hearsay from day one – the liberal agenda is to get women voters on this – let’s forget jobs . . . And let’s focus on Trump hates women, Trump hates this & that.

      This really has been a 3 year long attack, and if Trump does win in 2020 – just imagine 4 more years of this same attack – endless accusations – while the country waits for Congress to actually do something positive towards make America great !

      Yeah I said it ! A foreigner from Portugal

      🖐🇵🇹 TRUMP 2024 . . .

    2. @Jay Lopes I guess your feelings were involved in this. That wasn’t something I was expecting, but it did happen. You let your fragile feelings dictate how you view and must view the world around you. There weren’t any objectivity behind your responses and couldn’t answer (tough I guess) questions because “hey, popcorn, let’s enjoy the show” which is not a direct response anyway. Questions that would hurt the dear leader were avoided. As I stated in the beginning, I wasn’t expecting much but ended up getting quite a lot in terms of interesting responses in the end. Have fun enjoying the show I guess.

    3. @Make it simple When Clinton was President the economy was doing good – Wall Street was actually doing great – so what if he got some action in the oral office – No one cared ! All this high school fighting is a complete waste of time.

      This is why people hate government and why Trump got elected in the first place, to attack this man for 3 years is proof of just how dysfunctional government is . . .

      This thing about feelings – when JFK had that (first ever) TV debate with Nixon – many historians have agreed Nixon on radio won the debate on facts – JFK won on TV with looks – great hair – looking younger – even looked like he had a tan . . .

      At the time women even admitted JFK “looked so handsome” – that’s women voters – they vote with emotion without thinking of the consequences – like LBJ with food stamps & free housing – great hustle – “we’ll get the N vote for 200 years”

      It worked – free stuff !
      A socialist/communist hustle – each time people fall for it, especially women . . .

      Obama played the socialist card with “free healthcare” – women loved it ! Who will pay for it – our grandchildren – no worries

      Why don’t I fall for it ? Back in the 1960’s I was in Brasil, it was dictatorship – back then I saw the hustle first hand . . .

      This has been a 3 year long coup – breaking down the little details is falling into the game of this hustle –

      Is/was there a crime – yes or no ?
      Move on . . . Now run the government . . .

  5. Billy “Buttson” Barr doing his “I’m looking for my balls, I know they were around here someplace” routine is kinda hilarious.

  6. “I can’t remember…” is another way of saying that “…yes he did, but I won’t give him away…and I also have to protect my conscience by not lying that he didn’t”.

    1. Not protecting his conscience!
      He’s a smart man, he’s just keeping his distance behind trump, while trump decides to run on thin ice!

  7. If there was ever a “shifty” person in this administration, it’s Barr. His head is stopping lower and lower… I wonder why?
