    1. @ihave35cents hey punk. In 2015-16 The GOP was hijacked by far right hatred and conspiracy theories. Plus the electoral college failed.

  1. Trump is running America just like one of his own businesses, most of which failed despite burning through truckloads of other people’s money. Historically, he squirrels away some of that OPM for himself, then bails just before things crash & burn. All of this was well-known about him years before he became a candidate.

    1. hi hope u r well…..i do not know how old you are, &n you may think i am a nut job, so:
      , after the KGB coup against Pres.Gorbachev, i can still recall Boris Yeltsin standing on a tank, surrounded in flowers, asking the young soldiers, to get out of their tanks .thankfully SYJMF, they did..

      trump has HIS own KGB / GESTAPO so i genuinely fear when Trump loses in November,there could be similar scenes n the streets of the USA.

      ..i cannot vote, in the USA, but if there was as important an election in Scotland, i would, even although i am in the highest at risk group, from covid, would vote in person, whatever the consequences for my health…stay very safe & my friend & please vote in person, as the PLANET needs Joe Biden to win this..ZEIG PAIL

    2. @Nota Bene you’re forgetting that Trump’s grandfather ran from New York toto Germany where he hid out for 7 years till he could come back to the United States he made his money from prostitution in the Yukon during the gold Rush days he tried it in Seattle Washington but he wasn’t accepted so he went to the Yukon and that’s where he made all his money the apple don’t fall far from the tree in the trumps have been corrupt since way back in the early sixties so yeah it’s we need to get Trump out of office there’s no doubt about that

  2. Of course she’s going to be labeled as a disgruntled employee.. She’s stating truths! Speaking out for her country a lil late but still it matters!!!

    1. Did she mention any facts? Only what someone else told her. We should have done like Sweden and ignored the Covid and had people live and the economy in great shape.

    2. I’m glad the swamp is being drained of her type that never have solutions and only want a problem to continue.

    3. @CaliforniaCheez we could have responded like Japan too and been better off, but Sweden didn’t ignore Covid they responded and somethings they got wrong too. Trump’s big problem with a month of inaction and also he sabotaged any good he did do by pandering to his unscientific and fearful base.

    4. @CaliforniaCheez that is the problem with Republicans, they cry about the problem and the solution and then any solution that gets implemented is hobbled to not work well and then they cry about that. Trump isn’t draining any swamp, he is adding to it, installing lobbyists to run agencies and firing career professionals.

    1. DID YOU KNOW THAT 40% OF ALL CHINA LAAAAAB VIRUS DEATHS IN AMERICA STEM FROM JUST FIVE DEMOCRAT GOVERNORS AND THAT WHILE TRUMP WAS STOPPING TRAVEL FROM CHINA Biden was calling him a xenophobe and pooplosi was going to china town to promote china and combat ‘racism’

    2. @AMERICAN BRAIN TRUST o ok just forget about the COMMANDER in chief of LIES in past 8 months,dont reflect the TRUTH like trump

    3. @AMERICAN BRAIN TRUST why do America Republicans go on about China, The whole world new the virus came from China FACT CHECK,the whole world responded to the virus with lockdown for 3 months FACT CHECK trump said between FEBUARY an March about virus its deadly,its like the flu,its airborne,dont were mask,it is what it is November landslide defeat for trump

      Complements of the true Americans

    4. @carl cullen LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLhttps://www.newsweek.com/hillary-clinton-track-electoral-college-landslide-510362

    1. K.L. Hoell – Everything Is All On Tape. He Lied, People Died. & Projections are 415,000 dead from Covid by January.

    2. It tears me apart even to have to think about this possibility. Even as a possibility, even with fewer numbers, how can voters let this continue?

    3. @Gary Marino I called Obama my president and he was a wuss. The comment a****** Trump made was he was trying not to cause Panic. Don’t you understand that that does not mean everybody in the world contracted coronavirus because of one comment one a****** man-made

    1. Cowardice and weakness define Republican Senators, Representatives, and Administration employees who keep enabling Trump

    2. His enablers: Those incapable people who got their dream job + corrupt business and political allies who pocketed nation’s money. Period.
      PLEASE READ my latest report on how Trump rebuilt his BUSINESS EMPIRE by illegally misusing presidential powers!

    1. @Jay its sad how a person can be so devoted to a morally bankrupt, corrupt, pathological liar, and want him to remain as president of a once decent country, even though he is responsible for 200,000 American deaths. Like I said, you’re fully indoctrinated into the cult.

  3. I think if i had worked for trump and his thugs and they called me a disgruntled employee i would wear it like a badge of honor.

    1. They should form a party. I think they would get great support from the millions of Americans who are disgruntled with Trump.

  4. Pence owned himself by saying “this reads as yet another disgruntled employee who left the White House” dude, then why are there SO MANY disgruntled ex-employees? Well-run organizations don’t have dozens of disgruntled and/or imprisoned ex-employees.

    1. You are so right! Pence and Trump are too STUPID to realise!
      ALSO: Why is an ex employee’s opinions and facts any less relevent???
      Answer: They aren’t!!

    2. Natster Jam No, they’re not too stupid to realize it….well, maybe Dump is; he’s pretty stupid. But they are BOTH liars and gaslighters. Their minions, the people who swallow their swill, are who are stupid.

    1. Rodney Williams
      weird how 95% of employees of ANY job who are fired are disgruntled LOL 5% are just happy not to work there anymore.

    2. Trump thrives in the swamp. The problem is that someone told him that the swamp is full of Dark money. Donald Intrest was grabbed.

    1. THOMAS SCAR stupid fool are you on drugs you have nothing else to do with your life you sent that to me three times nonsense I see why you are a trump supporter ignorant and dumb like your leader if you don’t have nothing intelligent to say don’t say nothing at all

    2. Fake Roman Catholic. Of course, many so called “Christians” believe Roman Catholicism is generally fraudulent, especially in recent years, but they neglect the social work.aspect and particularly now with the food kitchens working in tandem with every other decent church and secular outfit.

    3. @Lynn Lamont The Pope? Well if you study history ,yes. But Church of England was only formed so Henry V111 could get a divorce – Judaism,Muslim, Catholic,Coptic Christian are the oldest.Evangelicals are upstarts making a lot of money off their parishioners.Trump is a fake Christian by association.I mean,who holds a Bible upside down?

    1. Though, I’m not American and not living in your country, I really fell your pains. God will help people like you, and liberates those genuine Americans from his grip and his miserable supporters. But, on serious note, no one will henceforth take any Americans serious in any international circles should that rabid heartless liar and shameless president Trump is reelected come November 3rd.

    2. Alex Hamilton to leave because you are afraid is not a choice. To work for the election and voting for those you work for is a solution.

  5. When the current Trump administration has dozens of DISGRUNTLED EMPLOYEES who left or resigned and are now supporting the other party, HOUSTON, WE HAVE A BIG PROBLEM.

    1. If you work for Trumpty Dumpty’s MisAdministration and you speak out you’re a LEAKER!
      If you leave DONNY DEATH’S Cult you’re DISGRUNTLED!

    1. @douglas ohari 🤣 Fact check this – the dimwit Communists control the media😃 Shut down the country and sustain the livelihood of the people of Chinatown 🤣 You people are killing me 🤣👌

  6. MAGMA supporters are still saying how great a job he has done. They live in an alternate reality because of a reality TV star, ironic.

    1. Trump doesn’t have to shake hands with those disgusting people. Plus he doesn’t want wounded veterans in parades because, “people dont want to see that”.
