Hey, Chris here — who do you think is going to win the 2020 election, and why?
reverant tangent 👌💪
ROLL WITH IT right, because Donald’s friends are not in jail. Sucker!
Democrats will win the presidency, as well as the majorities in the Senate and the House.
Please get rid of the antidemocratic/confederate electoral college.
@Kris Woods Younger generations are turned off to liberal beliefs. They are going to come out large for Trump, blacks will come out with around 30% for Trump, Latinos will come out with around 30% for Trump. The Democrats will lose because of the bogus impeachment hearings, independents are sending a loud and clear message that they are against the sham the democrats are doing.
@Gdurant They don’t have brain damage, they are Anti-American Airheads and they have the right to be Airheads or get a brain and learn how to use it. However they have the right to continue to be Airheads.
Cmon. McConnell’s not in play?!?!
“could” but not “likely”
Nemo Krada almost as likely as chris saleazebagg growing hair to replace his hair piece
How the hell do you lock yourself out of your phone?
That’s why Trump said Republicans are stupid so vote Republican, get branded
Teresa Young, Zombie Whisperer TRUMP LOCKED BOLTONS TWITTER ACCOUNT … COURTS GOT IT BACK TO HIM … STAY TUNED
In a related story, Democrats could take Mars in 2023.
@ruletheworld 01 are you speaking ebonics?
Alfredo Xu ..and Donald Trump could never become President!
it’s been gerrymandered to favour socialists
I already sold all my crater front properties on Alpha Centauri to Democrats.
Yeah and Epstein
committed suicide 😜👈
Randy, Putin controls Trump. Millions of snowflakes cannot be wrong.
@William Royerisn’t it amazing, that lib turds have so many “little known facts ” coming out of their asses , makes me wonder, if swallwell , wasn’t the only one farting . No doubt , the prove of that is with shifty Schiff , together with his Russia collusion proof , right ?
@Madisyn Drake Well listen, in case you missed it, the whole country watched Mueller testify before Congress, we heard the words out of his own mouth, no collusion, no Conspiracy, no Obstruction, period. So stop with this “I read all 400 pages”. We don’t need your fucking subjective summary, we all heard what Mr Mueller said, now get lost
katwil89 wow you just prove that democrats have no brains and just follow the crowd… if cnn says the sky is pink you’ll believe it
Liberals logic: “trump was seen partying with Epstein, he’s was a rapist.”
With that logic, then Epstein mother, father, neighbors, waitress or anything who was seen with Epstein is a rapist…. but Clinton flight records have him there 26 times and they still defend Clinton’s hahah fucking morons
What do wallboard, Christmas lights, and Epstein have in common?
They don’t hang themselves.
@Randy Smith according to who? Trump?
@Alexander Cartier according to me, I’m calling you out as a liar.

Or funnier yet, trump will be cleared in all of his investigations?!
Epstein COULD have killed himself, but he didn’t!
@I’m Aimée Miami I heard Trump invented cancer after he killed off all the unicorn babies.
@Nemo Krada Yeah. That’s common knowledge. It’s on page 164 of “The art of the Deal”.
Give the feds a chance to correlate evidence the truth will come out it’s hard to believe with a high profile case that they couldn’t have people watching Epstein 24/7.
LOL, yes madam president the dems could take the senate in 2020.
If my grandmother had wheels,,,,,,,she’d be a car too
