Boston Globe Editorial Board: Trump 'Has Blood On His Hands' | The Last Word | MSNBC
The *ENTIRE REPUBLICAN PARTY* has blood on their hands.
@builder bestbarn why bring politics into that? Our people are dying regardless of party
They don’t care
@The Morose Pittbull NY state passed bill making it legal for abortion up until the time of birth” ONLY WHEN THE FETUS IS UNVIABLE or the mother’s life is endangered!” Do you know what “unviable” even means? You people have twisted this around so badly! You are sick! God! I feel for any mother who was obviously wanting a baby (or they wouldnt have carried to the the last trimester) and then find out there’s something badly wrong and the baby isn’t going to make it. It would be heartbreaking! These are NOT morhers who just casually changed their mind about having a child!
I totally agree with you on this… i made a music video call ‘Putins Toy’… i think you would appreciate. Its on my channel
. It’s a satirical anti Trump punk song, featuring some of Winnipeg’s top musicians and female vocalists. I wrote the lyrics and do the lead vocals. My son spent 12 hours Putin it together. I hope you enjoy it RampagePhoenix. Feel free to leave a comment. I value your opinion. Hopefully it’s a humorous to diversion to help break up your day.
The agri business imprisons, tortures and slaughters billions of sentient mammals every year. They feel far more pain than a fetus.
Fox News also has blood on its hands and no amount of hand washing will get out those damned spots.
Tarzan Le I’d like to sue the government in The Supreme Court for a refund of all the taxes I’ve paid in my lifetime. Our independence started from *No Taxation Without Representation,* and my taxes have not been used toward my interests and causes, *as was promised on national television,* but for subsidizing billionaires. Since my taxes are not paying for medical supplies at the hospitals my parents are working in, I consider this a breach of trust, dereliction of duty, and gross mismanagement of finances. Basically, theft, corruption, and misappropriation or funds. As a 27 year old, I have now lived through *TWO FINANCIAL CRASHES.* Whoever is supporting this type of screwed up economy must be fired and brought to justice. We millenials never had a chance – we were born into huge national debt, failing Medicare, the defunding of public services, a screwed up climate, and are supposed to forge our careers and future during two recessions. If I can manage my money and stay debt free, why can’t the government manage my tax money and stay debt free on my behalf? Fire them all, drain the swamp. The Millenials demand a Clean slate, because the previous generations and screwed things up for us and set up incompetent governments and ruined our futures.
Jon Thomas
Yeah, NOW we need to put differences aside.
I get it and I do in general, but the clowns are still praising the moron and refuse to change the attitude that got us in this mess with a complete moron con man.
Tired of the cult Bs.
They need to deal with the denial and rejection of anything not agreeing with their absurd conspiracies.
No news but those that tell them how to think.
Good luck.
I have no faith in my fellow countrymen anymore.
Jon Thomas
I don’t trust or respect anyone who can still support and back this clown.
Now that your effected? Good luck.
Put our differences aside? *We will not negotiate with domestic terrorism. American blood is raining on their heads, it’s drenching all their MAGA hats, running down their shirts in rivers and pooling on the piles of dollars they sold their souls for.* They sacrificed their fellow Americans at the altar of their almighty god, The Holy Economy. The true God is watching, He sees all they have done, and whom they’ve sold their souls to. He is just, and He will reward them fairly with everything they truly deserve. Their false god, and their Beloved Economy is toppling as punishment from God, and we are collateral damage of His rage.
Eventually, they’ll choke on the blood of their innocent fellow Americans. They will find it hard to breathe, and their souls will be drenched in it. God help them then, because the almighty dollar will not save them, and they won’t be able to bring their money with them into the morgue, and into the grave. Their coffins will be the same size as everyone’s – of Trump’s, and of the poor American unfortunates. No bigger and no smaller.
@Elena B. Yes, they fired one of the mouth pieces, thinking that was going to save them but the trash she was let go over, is the same rhetoric, misinformation and bald faced lies, several of their opinion giving potato heads have been saying. I’m sure drumpf can find a spot for her in the WH, he has dozens of fox propaganda ex employees working there.
fox propaganda are also guilty of covering up the same scandals that Michael Cohen is in jail for and the National Enquirer is under investigation for, the hush money to whores from the RNC. I can just imagine what dirt the Russians have on the filthy rethuglikkkans as well, because they didn’t just hack the DNC.
He is a traitor to this country
Republicans since Hoover have taken our country to the brink of destruction,then Democrats restored sanity.Trickle down does not work.
Your right ,… So how do we convince the MORON MILLIONS that STILL love him like a god.
bigeze50 we don’t just concentrate on bigger numbers…electorate well I know a couple of wise guys 🙂
Trump is the worst president ever. He is a disaster to all Americans ☝️
He is indeed #1 in that !!
Well, you reap what you sow guys
he’s a disaster to the world
She speaks nothing but truths, and because of his lack of empathy and his negligence, he’s not even taking care of all our frontline warriors😷making sure they stay healthy & safe….
The news tonight reporting that #45’s calling those asking for PPE and ventilators for hospitals, “complainers”. He calls them “complainers”. He won’t get their vote. I hope they stay alive to cast their vote.
Did you see Trump seem insult PPE stealing mask? Dang this president dump way far beyond imagination.
WHAT DIS SHE WAS FACTUALLY TRUE?? ITS AN OPINION AND SHES A LYING DOG. CHINA ALLOWED 6 MILLION PEOPLE TO LEAVE CHINA AND THEY SPREAD THE DISEASE THAT THE CDC FAILED TO REPORT.. THE CDS FCKED THIS UP AND COVERED FOR CHINA.. THIS IS NOT A TRUMP PROBLEM. CHINA WILL PAY
My wife has tested positive for covid. It pains me beyond words to see her like this. The Federal government response has been nothing short of despicable
I’m sorry about your wife. Many are surviving, even the Prime Minister of England after a brief ICU stay. Take care of yourself.
@Xx-Gunslinger-xX YES, trump has much to do with his wife. He has, at every turn, made it harder for people to avoid getting the virus, made it harder for hospitals to get supplies, made it so fewer people were working on a test and vaccine, lied to the public, as per usual, to make himself look better.
@Xx-Gunslinger-xX Now they say it came from a lab in Wuhan. The office Obama set up was there to look out for this kind of disease so we know asap what may be come. If trump had an adult instead of adversarial relationship with China the results could be much better.
@Andy Harrington I’m so grateful for you and your wife. Tell her to take it easy, a little more each day. Happy to hear this…bless you both.
@millieo she’s much better thank you but still has a persistent dry cough that hopefully goes away soon
I can see a class action law suit against Fox News in the future….
@Jazz Haze ya think?
Bioniq Bob 👀
Michael Lamp there should be. People shouldn’t g easy on them for ruining their lives and loosing their loved ones
MANU ALEX absolutely.
@Xx-Gunslinger-xX Trump, “this is their new hoax, we have it totally under control, one person from china, one day like a miracle it will disappear, no i don’t take responsibility at all”.
I’m a home care nurse in SE Massachusetts. There hasn’t been a hint of PPE or masks yet for us. Our families have been sewing masks for us. This admin.’s ineptitude is fully on display. What a shame so many of us have to die because of this evil administration’s incompetence.
These lies need to be called as such. Not “misstatements”, but lies. Trump was informed 12-22-19 of a coming pandemic. As usual, he thought he knew better. He’s never been held accountable.
CHINA let 6 million people leave Wuhan and failed to tell anyone about the seriousness of the illness. THE CDC and CHINA are to blame.. WAKU UP!! WAKE UP!! This is a BS story from BS media outlet and they know. Don’t blame AMERICA!!
Real Deal No one is blaming America the problem lies with your president. He knew what was going on n what was about to happen but he was more concerned about himself. He is supposed to be the president for every single one of us not just his base that believe lie that comes out of his mouth… people lie video can be made to lie but the numbers don’t he said that this would magically disappear I wish he would magically disappear
@Omotola Okeke Such ignorance. Trump banned travel from China. That alone saved hundreds of thousands of people.. The entire globe is infected. No one is immune. STOP making this I HATE TRUMP issue and grow up. You sound STUPID!
Canvas for an Wnonv
@Real Deal I don’t blame th CDC too much. China wouldn’t let them get involved.
“Everything Trump Touches Dies”

@Emily excellent comment.
Well then he needs to start touching liberals
Die or put in prison.
Gary Lund
That’s the mother’s choice. Not yours. As a conservative I thought you would grant individual liberty to the person.
History will prove that Trump killed thousands as did FOX News.
ABSOLUTELY,… DAM RIGHT !!
I totally agree with you on this… i made a music video call ‘Putins Toy’… i think you would appreciate. Its on my channel
. It’s a satirical punk anti Trump song, featuring some of Winnipeg’s top musician’s and female vocalists. I wrote the lyrics and do the lead vocals. My son worked 12 hours Putin the video together. I hope you enjoy the video Susan, and that it provides you a humorous diversion in these uncertain times.
Mitch McConnell and the republican controlled senate by leaving him in office have blood on their hands as well.
@Ms. Keysha Wineglass …What go’s around, comes around,!
Some how some way; fate will intervene .
Many of these great hypocrites, will get their just rewards.
Lying and cheating, is always temporary.
He knows more than anyone yet he makes the same decisions a 2 year old would make. We know he is a failure!
@Uffi Sachs God chose him. He will win in 2020 also.
@Gary Lund There is nothing misterious about the fact that the US has the most infections and the highest mortality worldwide. It has nothing to do with Jerusalem and everything to do with an incompetent leadership. Donald Trump had wasted crucial time to respond to the outbreak. As late as February 27. he called the seriousness of the outbreak “a hoax by the Democrats.”
@Uffi Sachs He will be re-elected in 2020.
@Gary Lund I will never understand why some people seem to get a buzz out of doomsday predictions.
don’t insult 2 year olds
I feel like I’m living in a Kurt Vonnegut story. Someone please memorialize this whole presidency in a “fake” novel entitled “Slaughterhouse Forty-Five”.
You are NOT living in a Kurt Vonnegut story. You are living in a Stephen King book: “The Stand”, we have not told you up till now. Happy reading!
The historians are going to have a field day cataloging all of Rump’s failures and scandals and of all the crooks he has brought into his administration. So let’s get the vote by mail into action so there is no excuse for not having the election we need to get rid of the cancer in the WH nothing should deter us from having our election and ensure the integrity of the election.
@Ernest B Yeah!
DID YOU FORGET HE SPENT 2 WEEKS BLAMING THE DEMS FOR THIS “HOAX” ?
Nobody “forgot.”
@John Gray Very good song!
@Bronte Thanks Bronte my son spent 12 hours Putin it together. The video is getting traction . I’m getting unsolicited hate comments from MAGA pro Trump groups. Feel free to share the video on your FB timeline. I think I’m getting close to an angry tweet from Mr. Thin Skin lol.
@jpcyphers …”A Men”
That is possibly the most idiotic thing he has said. The Democrats started a pandemic! to make trump lose the election. A global pandemic to pick on one man. I cannot fathom such a thing.
This woman is a treasure. Thank you for having the courage to speak up 🌺
It s her right and no one can take that away
It s her right and no one can take that away
@Phil MacGregor all media outlets should continue to write about this administration’s massive failures. If i lost a loved one I would squarely put the blame on trump
Family members of the dead need to sue FOX NEWS, HANNITY, TRUMP for the lies that killed their family members
@Tom Hodgson Does this mean you are a trump worshiper?
@Ian Trimbath They can pursue it through world choices. It has nothing to do with us. He is supposed to protect us, an impossible task to do perfectly, but he is willfully uninformed, refuses to follow expert advice and turns it into a political power play, and as unbelievable as it is, tells the governors the needed materials are up to them, then when they work together or place orders for necessary materials he interferes. I could go on and talk about Jared’s illogical comments and more but I will throw up and I don’t want the trouble.
@Ian Trimbath If trump could get away with it like Putin he would.
@Ian Trimbath We are too busy trying not to get Covid 19 and to get intelligent people into the White House.
Exactly 💯 per
With thanks to the Globe for printing the truth.
Let me remind you that Trump boasted during his campaign in 2016 that” he could shoot someone on fifth avenue and would’nt lose voters, he scaled that up to thousands of Americans
That’s an insult to the intelligence of his base..and yet it wasn’t
His approval rating has actually gone up during coronavirus.
I totally agree with you on this… i made a music video call ‘Putins Toy’… i think you would appreciate. Its on my channel

Pieke Van der wal I hope you enjoy it , and find it a humorous diversion in these uncertain times. Feel free to leave a comment, I value your opinion.
Remember, he’s an actor, from the hit T.V. show, now he should be, what, fired…..
My cousin lives in LA and sent me pictures of all the piles of dogshit on his Star on the walk of fame. I doubt they think much of his acting.

Every time Trumph accuses…it means hes doing it
“I heard there is hoarding ventilators”
Means he is
So true!
