  1. What!! Trump violate the law? Must be fake news and unfortunately 25% + of Americans won’t even know about this nor care…sad

    1. @AllTalk NoAction according to tour news Fox, 58% of Americans approve of investigation into.his corruption

    2. Number 47 – wow your so smart, not! The day of reckoning is coming and trump will fall. It’s not left nor right it everybody who now know he is a moron and will go down. Go back to your chick Fil a job cause your gonna need money to save up. This what happens when you quick collage due to cost and get brainwashed with right paranoid propaganda and can’t think for your self but believe in what any right will say. Stupid

  2. Trump thinks he’s King George III. He may be as crazy a George III but be doesn’t (yet) have the purse strings to do what he pleases with our money.

    1. Soon he will be roaming the halls of the White house searching for his lost colonies and talking to portrets of himself

    2. I mean, the President has power to tax payer’s money in some situations. Also, King George wasn’t crazy, there is no historical evidence that his behavior was erratic and helped cause his downfall. Compared to Hitler to where his erraticism was to blame for many bad military decisions during WW2.

      There is plenty of people through out history who you can compare Trump to, King George III is not one of them.

  3. Too bad you can’t build the wall out of corruption and lies.
    It would have been the biggest, bestest wall ever!

    1. @Mark Shumate All Trumpy has done is replace existing wall or put up temporary “barriers.” A barrier correct me if I’m wrong is not a wall. Again he has put up ZERO brand new WALL.

    2. @Mark Shumate Forget the cable news. According to actual public records, Trump has done NOTHING. All that he’s done has been to renovate existing -walls- fences, mostly built during the Obama administration, that were in need of repair. That’s it. You’ve been lied to by Trump.

  4. Donald Trump has never cared what the law says – so, why would anyone be surprised when he regularly breaks it?

    1. Great argument. I suppose you know this by your exstensive research on our President. I wish you would put up some of the evidence of your discovery of his life long criminality. I am in no way saying that the President is, or has been perfect. Then again who is.

    2. If you have any actual evidence of non-imaginary crimes, you should tell the Democrats. They’ve been looking for something … anything … for three years now.

  5. What does congress have to do with getting money for the wall when Mexico is paying for it?- Signed a confused, dimwitted ReTrumplitard.

    1. @Stephen Werner Thanks, although it is a little harsher than I like. I am just getting really impatient with his willfully ignorant enablers.

    1. It means all those contracts to build the wall are illegal. Lots of people inside the federal government, and all those contractors, are now in big legal trouble for it.

    2. You can’t indict a sitting president. Any president could strangle a baby on live TV and he wouldn’t be arrested as long as he holds the office. Once Trump isn’t president anymore, he will get charged with the crimes he committed as long as the statute of limitations hasn’t run out.

      Also, illegal doesn’t always mean crime. It could refer to checks and balances. Just like Trumps Muslim ban, the ban was illegal but he didn’t break any laws putting into place. Or like when they were trying to decide if Obamacare was legal, it the supreme court found parts of it was illegal, Obama wouldn’t of been arrested, the law just wouldn’t of stood.

  6. Bill Barr met with Rupert Murdoch today in NYC. Shep Smith just resigned. Coincidence? So many coincidences. Trump is a synonym for corruption. Faux is an antonym for Truth.

    1. Shep Smith was the last news person on Fox. Not a good sign.
      Maybe he’ll upgrade to a real news organization.

  7. Wasn’t this the wall the Mexican should pay for…this wall also shut down government for over a month .right!!
