Allegheny County Executive: Everything Is On Camera | Morning Joe | MSNBC
πEvery county matters, every single vote matters π
I DO read more than I listen to “what they tell me”, EXCEPT when I watch trump at various appearances, he’s the source of my opinion about him. I don’t own a TV, I don’t LIKE TV, I occasionally watch him on my friend’s TV next door. I’ve been aware of and watching him since the 1980’s, even back then I already though, “what a piece of crud”, a symbol of the worst in America, VILE, GREEDY, SUPERFICIAL and BOORISH.
I am gross and perverted
I’m obsessed ‘n deranged
I have existed for years
But very little has changed
I’m the tool of the Government
And industry too
For I am destined to rule
And regulate you
I may be vile and pernicious
But you can’t look away
I make you think I’m delicious
With the stuff that I say
I’m the best you can get
Have you guessed me yet?
I’m the slime oozin’ out
From your TV set
You will obey me while I lead you
And eat the garbage that I feed you
Until the day that we don’t need you
Don’t go for help . . . no one will heed you
Your mind is totally controlled
It has been stuffed into my mold
And you will do as you are told
Until the rights to you are sold
That’s right, folks
Don’t touch that dial
Well, I am the slime from your video
Oozin’ along on your livin’ room floor
I am the slime from your video
Can’t stop the slime, people, lookit me go
I am the slime from your video
Oozin’ along on your livin’ room floor
I am the slime from your video
Can’t stop the slime, people, lookit me go
Frank Zappa
With this voting system, every vote won’t matter and all the votes don’t have the same weight.
@woowooNeedsFaith WHO cares?
@Charles Roberts so what your saying is that it’s ok for them to influence the Integrity of the elections of the United States of America by persuading people into choosing the candidate that they want you to choose because it’s for the better of their interests instead of the people of this country..?π€π
@Mark G No, YOU’RE saying that. Also, you appear to not be very well educated, your writing is convoluted and you have poor sentence structure skills. You don’t use PUNCTUATION and have run-on sentences. One can derive multiple meanings from your post, please re-write it in order to elucidate your meaning. This emoji π€ does not reflect what you are like, you don’t THINK things through. Your thinking is more like this–>π
Presidential campaigns live by the electoral college and they die by the electoral college.
@Taylor King Helpful hint: lay off the Clorox.
@Taylor King The time for personal and political bantering is over my friend. The votes are in and only need to be confirmed by count. Wait…I am still awaiting the mysterious laptop. I hope that was not one of your ‘examples of corruption’. Get over it my friend. Perhaps in 2024 when the Republican party reconstitutes itself from being political sycophants to real representatives of the people will they have another chance.
@Taylor King nah, but MSNBC, NBC, ABC, CNN, CBS news, YT, they’re much better sources than your FOX News. There are so many facts and evidences that proves you how corrupt and racist your Donnie is. His tax returns, he doesn’t pay taxes (it’s a federal offence) he paid only $750 in 2016 and 2017 (most Americans pay more tax than that), he scammed the IRS in millions of dollars, he used his private properties to make money off other countries like Turkey during his presidency (felony), he’s blocking his full tax return to be shown to cover up his corruption. He scammed students with the fake Trump university ππ, his children scammed other people with a fake charity organisation, he paid his lover Ivanka over $700k under the table pretending he was paying for a company for service but instead the money went straight to Ivanka’s p#ssy. He tried to blackmail Ukraine’s government for dirt on Joe Biden. The list of corruption practised by this orange buffoon is so lonnnnnnnnng that I don’t have more time to explain you the facts and evidences of a racist corrupt president that you deny to accept, because you wanna live in a fantasy world run by a white suprem#cist fan π€¦ββοΈπ€·ββοΈ
Biden has the most popular votes in the history of our country
WE the people need to get rid of the electoral college system.
Joe Biden Is going to win. Give up, Donald Trump.
@Lolington YT Shut up fool,its over,now get back in your box clown,hahahaha.
@Colin Maharaj I wish !
@Lolington YT people usually donβt survive a single brain aneurysm so having a history of such must make him immortal
@Mark G …π€£π€£π€£…CONVICTED FELONS are forever barred from running for President. And that INCLUDES Trumpβs π€‘ children, thatβll likely be criminally indicted in his N.Y. State Tax and Bank Fraud cases. But please – cry some more, MAGA moron…weβll frolic in your salty tears…π€£π€£π€£π€£
@Pineapple C Talking to Liberals is a waste of time. The President has better things to do.
Individual 1 needs an orange suit…
right now
More like a straight jacket
Thanks bro …. I’d completely forgotten about “individual one”…. trump’s been so scandalous, it’s hard to keep up!
immunity is over …to don the con , the con is over ….SDNY is coming for you …and they never loose in court….NEVER
And so does General Post Master DeJoy, for dismantling the Post Office machines. Screwing up timely delivery of mails.
Trump slogan quickly changed from “MAGA” to “Stop the count”.
@Token White Man when u hijack the post office this happens. Unfortunately it just prolonged his defeat! Lol
@D I have never hijacked a post office, Liberal lunaticɹ۬
@Token White Man reading comprehension isnt your strong suit….
@D “when u hijack the post office…” Apparently writing isn’t yours……ππΊπΈ
@Token White Man sure, apparently I cannot spell a 3 letter word… gotcha..your pos cult leader lost…….move on…
ANNOUNCE BIDEN PRESIDENT ALREADY! Let Donnie have his Total Meltdown!
They did.
@dmilo27 Thank You
@dmilo27 Karma? Or Kharma Honey? And thank you!
@Jackie O I have been so happy and hopeful all day ! Thank You π
@Lorna Sawyer ππ
Dictators don’t leave office peacefully but they are Ejected out forcefully.
@WinstonS84 THIS FROM A PARTY AND MEDIA PUSHING RUSSIA GATE, SPY GATE, UKRAINE AND NUMEROUS WHISTLEBLOWERS…..ππ€£πππ
We seen what happened to dictators and it don’t look good lol…
@Ghgjcij Fdvyhuy You and the media can project all you want….you can’t win with fraud
@Adorable Deplorable Probably best if you stay in your bunker for the next 8 years.
@Ghgjcij Fdvyhuy we don’t want a dictator! Bye bye rude trump
Every vote should be checked and counted just as they are doing. I’m fine if Trump wants things checked but the GOP needs to stop him from just throwing out accusations and frivolous lawsuits unless or until he has proof. Put up or shut up. He’s just hurting the country with that crap. I know in business he always churned out crazy lawsuits to eventually break someone so he wouldn’t have to pay them and stuff… but the USA is NOT Trump Enterprises nor some contractor he wants to screw out of their rightful payment.
@Nalda Donowa Some yes… but I think that is a very shortsighted and short term strategy. With Trump out of power I think many things will come to light that he was able to suppress while in power. It will take down many of them that knew what was going on.
He has zero proof yet he has in his last days created more hatred distrust and separation
@Draggy654 True
@Draggy654 zero proof? When there is videos of the observers with a court order to let them in and the deny them?…. thats breaking a law plain and simple…. the NY postal worker that got pulled over with over 800 ballots in his person car ?
Video of ballot counters destroying ballots.. what blind media are you watching…
Well said.
Itβs official, the rush Christmas toy for 2020 is the Crying Donny doll. Itβs basically a Chuckie doll but it blames everyone else in the toy box for everything.

@Heather Gaal I would have preferred to have been there when Lorraine Newman was πππ. She was my boyhood crush πππ
Even Murdoch telling Trump to give it up lol
@N. deG As long as you don’t send him back here to Australia, I’m fine with that. We have enough trouble with his news conglomerate over here as it is – even after we’d happily bade him farewell. There’s a petition that’s being tabled in parliament here soon regarding news monopolies and it’s basically all about the Murdoch empire (of evil).
@kez kezooie I hear you, ‘n good luck with that petition.We’re turning the page now, as Trump’s out. It’s time we start debunking this populism brought on, and perpetuated by that type of news outlets.
N. deG ……..NO, NO, NO…..we donβt want him back, you accepted him in fair and square ! πππ
@N. deG Australia doesn’t want Murdoch back, you may keep him or do with him as you please.
@Helene Flamand Murdoch tried to get one in UK and other countries of Europe and then was forced to sell his sky news to another company π
Georgia, this is your moment to shine upon America. Don’t let Moscow MITCH and his senate Republicans screw this nation anymore. There are couple of runoff election in January and only you, Georgians, can deny mitch more tyranny. May the force be with you.
Amen to that. Two more dems need to be elected to the Senate
@Wiserine Mindenis Get out with the QAnon BS. The Hammer thing again, really? It was banned by FB as nonsense months ago, and here you are with it again. We know The Hammer is a right wing publisher, we ignore and go about our lives in reality, not fantasyland. Just a guess here, but I’m betting you throw your money away to the Circle of Trust.
@Glena Garrett, wth is a Qanon?
@Glena Garrett,
Β additionally, who owns fakebook? Who are their fact checkers? It appears you are not versed, in any manner, in Constitutional law.
@Wiserine Mindenis How interesting. Your original comment and the two videos you linked (which I actually looked at and then checked online for other references to same) are all now in the ether. So I cannot really go back to them to address what constitutional issue you’re referencing. I’m guessing that means they’re still considered bogus by rational thinkers.
It is what it is. Get over it. — Trump and his administration
@Javy C
I refuse to count that high.
@Van peter Yes. And WAY MORE than incompetent widdle donnie Tinyhands McBonespurs bunker boy who has done so many things that Make America GROSS Again that Biden wi have to repair.
He had the brains to choose HARRIS for his VP. He’s going to do just fine.
I foresee extensive legal problems in Trump’s future.
@plum Bob
He’ll screw it up and blame Obama for the mess.
@Javy C He needs his pacifier and his diaper to be change
It’s a shame that they used an octanangerian.
Folks, goes to show there is a higher power than Trump. His sycophants needs to realize this.
@MF Hopkins lots of laughs why are you trying to crack me I was only mentioning a allegations
Now go find something productive do
@Michael Keller You are the one who asked me a dumb-assed question.
Now… go commiserate with cheap beer and your right-winged buddies.
@kimmer824 the whole world is glad he lost what is that saying
@kimberly taylor who?. No one is glad he lost because he didn’t! clearly you only watch fake news propagandaπππ
@kimmer824 funny you’re right I do watch Fox News from time to time but seriously I only want a president that I can believe I live in North Carolina weather Trump is heavily supported I watch people not wearing masks and then I go to work and watch people die from Covid everybody votes what is best for their family and for me it is not Trump
the only fraud is coming from trump and his family
@kimmer824 Cry Troll.Passes you a Hankie,and bow before your new prez Biden:)
@Tf2knight yes, u mistake everything as russian, we know, we knowπππ΄π΄π΄
@Beatrice Asarte so is that what fake news told u to say???π€£ππ€£π΄π΄π΄
@Tf2knight typical spin that’s makes ZERO senseπππ΄π΄π΄
@kimmer824 Hands the poor Troll a Hankie to wipe away his Tears.Laughs and Smiles.No more Trump.No more Trump,No more Trump.YAY:)
To the poll workers, thank you for showing what democracy is all about.
@kegsofvomitspit You betcha,,, smells like trump logic all over. Only fraud so far was attempted in Philly and would have been to support trump (I have no doubt Philly officials would have caught it had it gone further),,,, they cheat, then accuse their opponent of cheating….. Have a good one!!!
@kegsofvomitspit that’s the RepugnanCon and Drumpf mentality… more of a ‘tactic’… and it works. They have So Severely underfunded the Department of Education throughout America, that… well… you see…?
@Michael Reed You are definitely NOT in short supply of said “laughs”.
Thanks for the laughs… now go congratulate a REAL President, not your “acting” president.
@eltorocal Agreed!!! Take care,,,
@eltorocal Indeed…
Democracy is 1 person 1 vote, that’s democracy not this electoral fraud that only helps to give chances to corrupt candidates like Donnie to get elected like it happened in 2016 π€·ββοΈ
I watched President Biden speech last night . It was so refreshing to hear a President that cares . I am so sick of the daily chaos and dumpster fires and LIES that tRump has had day after day for over 4 years .. bye bye IMPEACHED tRump a one term President .
That’s the unpleasant feeling we have from this impeached president. Everyday Drama and tantrums, we deserve a better President that represents our dignity and needs.
@Soraya V It’ll be such a wonderful and welcome change from the daily tantrums and whining. No more seeing that bloated orange freakish thing everyday.
He doesn’t care… never has you’re completely blind to believe a politician…. on any side.
It must begin dawning on Trumpβs supporters that he is simply a sore loser,
who doesnβt have the strength to take defeat with dignity,
but keeps trying β as sore losers do – to explain his real failures by imaginary failures of others.
@eltorocal Class is what you are devoid of. Let’s go with the dictionary on this one.
@Geddo Oh… you can read? Well, then there are obviously deeper issues and reasons why you’re such an imbecile.
Ilia Smirnoff
Precisely.
@eltorocal The real conservatives really need to purge out the alt-right idiocy that has infested the Republicans. Ronald Reagan wouldn’t stand for this.
@Geddo Old WHITE men… and Old WHITE women need to go… set term limits and do away with Corporate donors. The seats are filled by the voting public… The Tax Payer. Corporations can vote, religious groups can vote… 1 Vote per “person”… no more MONEY to sway decisions… before the primaries, before accepting a seat after winning an election, all, and I mean ALL of Congress must show tax returns during their campaigns, and for every year of their “limited” term.
We, The People need Progress… Progressive now have a ‘slightly better’ chance with Biden/Harris… but Joe is just another Old WHITE man, and Harris is a conflicted prosecutor.
Sadly this information will fall on deaf ears. When trump loses, his Trump zombie army will still say there was fraud involved. Sore losers!
βItβs Terrific! No one has ever seen anything like this! The Numbers are Phenomenal βοΈYes Donald, Yes they are βοΈπΊπΈ
COFVEVE!!
@Chris Vandusen that was one of those thousands of times he mispronounced a word. He planned on saying “we are going to be whining so bigly.” And that is exactly what he has done for the last 4 years…
@Claudette J π€£π€£π€£π€£π Sounds about right! Congratulations everyone, from Canada. We’ve missed you guys. Neighbors were passing by, ALL SMILES too. “Trump has been DEFEATED” one woman was saying. Where upon I gave a huge “WOOHOO” looks like the only orange on Trump, is gonna be his PRISON uniform. π€
Flashback to dinner scene, When Harry Met Sally.
@Claudette J niceπ
