  1. The only time Trump practices social distancing is when it involves one of his people going to prison.

    1. Two days ago , my neighbor raised two flags at his ranch gate .
      A American flag and a trump flag . The wind has been about 5 mph out of the south .Gusting to 7-10 mph. Today the AMERICAN flag was looking good , but the trump flag was just a mess , torn and tattered and hanging on by a thread , I guess it was of poor quality and cheaply made , ready to be thrown into the trash .
      I could not help but notice the irony. Lol.

    2. Melania makes him practice it in bed too. Even Viagra won’t work after Putin is done with Donnie. The Russian Probe is tRumps pet name for Putin.

    3. Of course, Eponymous. 🙄
      *That’s* why #45✳’s *’accrued’ FOUR disbarred lawyers (and counting), SEVEN former employees who are INDICTED felons (SIX already CONVICTED), DOZENS of…’unplanned resignations’ AND, at last count, FIVE administration members with “Contempt Citations” NOW ON their resumes (Barr’s been cited TWICE 🤨).*
      And we won’t *EVEN mention* #45✳’s *numerous* ‘financial fiascos’… 💸
      But *we will* remind *everyone of THIS fact:*

    1. Please, for the sake of America, it will be our modern day ‘ Fort McKinley’ – winner over this barbaric tyrant.

  2. This is NOT shocking.

    What IS shocking is that 40% of Americans still support this nasty, corrupt clown.

    1. I’ve said it once; and I’ll say it again: I still find it very suspicious in regards to those “numbers.”

    2. @Jeanne 54 thanks. Very late and tired so only half read but will return. So tragically true of this awful man

    3. @Kevin Green it’s s sad state of affairs when we speak round corners to check the coast is clear of ……
      ..I’m stuck for words

  3. Trump ….pulling out the I don’t know who that person is ..card again…and I quote from the great Twitler ” it is what it is ” TRUMP FOR PRISON 2021…..REPUBLICANS for BIDEN an HARRIS 2020 !

    1. ‘Nah’, Yankees…it’s *these traitors.* ⬇️🤨⬇️

      Note *THAT* date, pal…and *WHAT* GOTPers *did last year.* 💰

      Which gave ‘Moscow Mitch’… *THIS* in return. 💱
      https://time.com/5651345/rusal-investment-braidy-kentucky/
      Beyond shameful, *UTTERLY* corrupted…and *pretty d*mn ‘unpatriotic’,* really. 🤔

    2. @CynAnne1 wow, great trustworthy sources !!!! I don’t think so. I would not trust either one. Anyway, The republicans have my vote over anything the radical democrats have to offer. Have a great day.

  4. “I haven’t dealt with him for YEARS now!” I don’t know what to even say anymore about Trump’s absurdity and LIES!!!

  5. First “in a while” then “in a few months” then ” in a few years” He doesn’t care if he lies and he knows he’s lying! He is SO disgusting.

  6. I don’t think there has been any U.S. President who have so many of his “friend’s” and “associates” either under investigation, arrested or convicted. Goes to show how corrupt Trump is!

    1. Incredible how so many Americans don’t see it. I guess that’s testimony to how much inbreeding goes on in the US, particularly in the Southern States.

    1. Unfit , funny. Look at Joe, he can’t even complete a sentence most of the the time . He is a puppet for the radicals who control him already. If you want socialism , higher taxes and a stock market crash the likes you have never seen vote for Joe and the radicals. If you think things are bad now , they will get much worse if the radicals get in.

    2. ​@Gary Yankees I am sorry to say that everything you say is demonstrably false.
      Joe Biden is neither demented nor a radical.
      It is hard for me to understand how people can become so deceived as you are.

    1. @Charless; Don’t tell him it was a test of cognizance, he thought it was an intelligent test!!!! AND THERE ARE PEOPLE OUT THERE THAT WILL VOTE FOR HIM AGAIN!!!?????

    2. @Guy North anything for that long, hard, , impractical, expensive and incomplete wall built on eroding soil I guess

  7. Trump’s inner circle is a coven of criminality: and we haven’t even seen Trumps taxes yet. Lock them up!

    1. @Last Of The Mohicans
      Oh please! Can the FBI retrieve data? Of course..found Nothing.
      Is Trump still using his personal phone? Yes.
      In the first Oval Office Meeting after the Inauguration, Who was there? All Russians, No AMERICAN’S, No Interpreter, No Notes. In Helsinki ..Trump said that he Believes Putin!….Can you DEBUNK that? No you cant. REPUBLICAN SENATE INTEL investigation said Russia helped Trump, and he invited it. Manafort worked for the GRU, And gave campaign polling data to Russia. Read the report, then comment. The rest is Trump Noise..propaganda, Conspiracy theories.
      Trump speaks, he’s made up over 20,000 lies, and you believe him. The guy’s a TRAITOR, Putin put him into Office to Destroy our Democracy. ARE YOU WILLING TO HELP THEM??

    2. Suuuure, Mohicans… 🙄
      *Meanwhile* (and allowing for ‘as-of-yet-announced indictments’)…
      #45✳’s *’accrued’ FOUR disbarred lawyers (and counting), SEVEN former employees who are INDICTED felons (SIX already CONVICTED), DOZENS of…’unplanned resignations’ AND, at last count, FIVE administration members with “Contempt Citations” NOW ON their resumes (Barr’s been cited TWICE 🤨).*
      And we won’t *EVEN mention* #45✳’s *numerous* ‘financial fiascos’… 💸
      But *we will* remind *everyone of THIS fact:*

  8. “When this President goes overseas, it isn’t a good-will mission, it’s a blooper reel.” – former Secretary of State John Kerry

    1. Christ…Remember when he walked in front of & blocked the Queen!!😂😂😂…the embarrassment!😣

    2. Shoving his way among leaders because Donald Duck really believes he is the best King in the history of the world. Lol

  9. If his kid is ever arrested
    “Don’t know the man, as you know he has only been alive for a short time, don’t know him well. “

  10. When Trump gets arrested:
    I have a personality disorder. I don’t know that Trump. Never heard of him never spoke to him.

    1. Arrested for what ? stop watching cnn and msnbc please. Lies and more lies. You will not like it if the radicals get in.

    1. “I barely know me since November, this is not the same Trump you guys votted for in 2016” hahahahahahahaha
