    1. 10,000 of you for 1 Charlie Whiskey No worries. Every patriot knows we cannot have presidents illegally asking foreign governments to announce investigations into their political opponents to help them win an election.

  1. Every patriot knows we cannot have presidents illegally asking foreign governments to announce investigations into their political opponents to help them win an election.

    1. Russel Bamberry Rump won the electoral college by 78,000 votes and lost the popular vote by 3 million. In a good economy given to him by Obama he gave away trillions in a 14% tax cut to very profitable multinational corporations to pump the markets reward the ultra rich. Now we are in a manufacturing recession and the federal deficit is skyrocketing to over 1.1 trillion this year. How quickly republicans forget the Bush economy crash. You fall for it every time.

    2. William Buick I don’t believe Trump has lied every day, I KNOW HE HAS LIED EVERY DAY. Trying to blame the media or anyone else for Trump’s corruption or pretending its not happening, that takes a special kind of stupid. But its not stupidity is it? Its anti Americans happily wanting a dictator, just as its a racist one.

    3. i’m sorry, but it might be only foreigners that will tell the truth about criminal activities of americans. the fbi has been the plaything of its director in the past, he is supremely well placed to get a handle on politicians. as long as they perform, he is silent. and now we see biden junior in an office well paid for no visible talent or labor. this should disqualify biden senior from office at least, but you didn’t learn it from the fbi.

  2. You guys in the USA have a huge problem and it is not trump it’s all the Republicans who stand by watch and collude with him.

    1. The electoral college, has keep Republicans in control for centuries, rigged elections have always been a part of thier American way, they are not ready to let the election go the way it did with Obama, surprisingly the votes were overwhelming. In this election they will prefer Biden over Bernie because Bernie will bring changes never attempted ever in office where Biden is vested in fossil fuels and allows them to keep the goals they have keeled for many years like oil, gas and pharmaceutical industries under thier control. 911 was thier biggest step, trump and Guiliani were supposed to be thier big players them it just got postponed and here we are!!!!

    2. @Amy S I agree, but will go a step further by saying that their “backbone” and “values” dissipated decades ago.
      The Republican Party has never been coy about their proto-fascist intentions. From the secret (not so secret anymore) meeting on the very night of Obama’s inauguration, where the Republican leadership, rank-and-file, and some hangers-on, made an agreement to block and deny any of the President-elect’s policies or proposals – to the 2012 GOP debate where the rabid Republican base literally cheered for the deaths of the uninsured – to the twisting of law and logic to literally steal a SCOTUS seat…

      Fascist, Totalitarian, Authoritarian. It all applies.
      It must become common knowledge to NEVER reward a Republican with a vote.

    3. Andreas Venizelou You are right. Plus they should all be issued one of Melaniia’s jackets stating….”I don’t care”. It might make the voters a little more aware of their plans for the Constitution.

    4. @Arjan Stam Sorry, I was giving the GOP more credit than they deserve. They already are the brown shirts. People in suits are the worse criminals as their crimes are usually on a larger scale.

      The Dems need to stop being nice with the GOP as they get spat on at every chance the GOP gets.

    5. @J Bell Well, Nazi’s are fascists, and fascism is a right-wing ideology. And Republicans generally rely on voter suppression.

  3. From what I can see this is all about sound bites. All the right wing media needs is a load of BS being spouted to show to the masses. They conveniently leave out the bit where it is refuted.

    1. You are right, Ukraine is innocent. So why did the Obama state dept and CIA give support to a coup to overthrow the democratically elected President of Ukraine? Then when Russia moved into Crimea sat back and did nothing. They didn’t allow U.S arms to be given to the Ukrainian military to resist. I am amazed that ppl here moan about Russian interference but say nothing about U.S interference in Ukraine.

  4. “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it.” — Joseph Goebbels

    The GOP keep up the same lie hoping people will start to believe

  5. Personal responsibility, respect for law enforcement and institutions and national security were all things the Republican party at least pretended to champion. Under Trump they have abandoned the above, so much so that they now stand for the polar opposite & only believe in maintaining power at ANY cost.

    1. The key word is “pretended.” The only thing Republicans ever cared about was/is making the rich richer. All roads lead back to that.

  6. ” The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that “my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.””

    Kind of describes Republicans

    1. So you feel that unless a citizen is an intellectual they should just sit there and except the will of the overly educated? Will you start calling these ppl surfs at some stage?

    2. @Russel Bamberry “So you feel that unless a citizen is an intellectual they should just sit there and except the will of *the overly educated?* ”


      Wow, talk about making one’s point…
      _“ _*_There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been._*_ The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political_
      _and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that _*_’my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge._*_ “_

      ― *Issac Asimov*

    3. @O. B. Ppl vote for whomever they feel will give them the best outcome. Ppl with less education have a right to vote for that person whether or not the educated agree with their decision or not. What do you suggest, an educated persons vote has a higher value? Your priorities may not be theirs.Bring back the aristocracy and the rest just do as they are told.

    1. Correct. Because of Trump’s delay, there wasn’t time to pass all the money through to Ukraine, before the apportionment expired.

  7. Why can’t the US pass a law that imprisons any member of the House, especially the White House, that blatantly lies?

  8. Its hard to believe that everyone is ignoring the daily breaking of the emoluments clause by Trump…..why is that ?

  9. What’s a shame is how he can get GROWN MEN TO SIT THERE AND DISTORT THE TRUTH OR JUST FLAT OUT LIE FOR HIM!! BOY THE MIND CONTROL IS REAL FOR THESE PEOPLE!!
