I HACKED YOUTUBE_.
Wow that’s some solid political insight there buddy “ Democrats the complete opposite” Wow, just wow
*👉Not voting still benefits Trump, so Man-Up folks and don’t waste yours!👈*
*#FarmersAgainstTrump** 🇺🇸 PROUD to be voting Blue/Progressive for House, Senate & State!*
@Jew Dy Joe Biden said in an interview if you don’t vote for me you’re not black
Marc Dambra I was aware of that gaff before you commented about it the first time. Again, he admitted he was wrong and apologized. When was the last time Turnip admitted he was wrong, apologized, or took responsibility for anything?
The Axios interview was hilarious, but Turnip being interviewed by Charlamagne would probably be the funniest show ever produced.
@Rickorzen what r u talking about,? No sequitur again. Person, woman, man, camera, TV. That’s about all you can handle.
@Jew Dy Trump’s idiocy was at the fore. Breathtaking how dumb this man is.
@Jew Dy “The Latino community is more diverse unlike the Black community”
-Joe Biden
this is a grain of sand on Trump’s beach but would be a huge deal for a normal president. they should pursue all avenues to make Trump accountable. more importantly, we need to vote Trump out of office so he can be charged, along with his conspirators! we must prove to the world and ourselves that democracy still matters, which requires a strong rule of law to survive. otherwise, we become a dictatorship where there is no actual law, just what a strong man says it is. in such an instance, every person in the country would be vulnerable to the whims of the dictator, whether through a puppet as happens with Putin or more directly.
If you plan on voting absentee, get that absentee ballot BEFORE the deluge and ASAP. Sign the form and review it carefully NOW: https://www.vote.org/ OR show up in person and heck wear 3 layers of masks, because “GOP, you can’t stop us. Either way, we are VOTING!”
Trent S Non American here ,we know we can see from the other side of the Atlantik Ocean whats going on in America
@Ian Muir :
thank you and sorry.
Who will do it? the corrupt judiciary? There are still bigger crimes to be investigated!
My investigation report on how Trump spent $3 TRILLION ($3,000,000,000,000) stimulus funds that his administration received to combat coronavirus (including $100s of billions for testing, masks and other PPE). Yet 163K deaths, 5M infected and 50M jobless!
Please read to see who got the most of $3 Trillion and for what.

@Bo Lang Please, and it does pain me to ask you this, stop encouraging people to vote by mail, because Trump and his stooge at the Post Office will have the mail irreparably backlogged before the election, and I don’t think that there is anything we can do about it in time.
But please continue to encourage people to vote, but unfortunately I think it’s time to steer people towards voting in person, even with the health risks – Trump just fired 23 senior executives at the Post Office in preparation for an all-out assault on mail delivery
Without his enablers Trump would have been removed from office years ago.
Vote a straight Blue ticket, that is the only way the cancer of Trumpism will be completely removed.
@Jim Battersbee Please explain Jim.
How did 8years of Democratic rule give us Trump?
What was so bad?
Or could it be that typically that as the US is a 2 party state that it typically swings to the other party after 8years?
@Kris B
“It is people from communities of color, immigrants, the poor and the marginalized – the very people who have been largely discounted in the nation’s history – that now constitute the majority of the nation’s critical workers. It is they, during this pandemic, who keep the country running and provide the essential services you all rely on”.
The Democrats never looked after those people during the 8 years they had the chance. Along with the GOP they are two sides of the same coin. If the US continues to collapse under the weight of its own greed and hypocrisy, there will be another revolution. You can bet on it.
@Jim Battersbee Hi Jim,
Thank you for your concise answer. And thank you again for keeping things civil.
I truly hope that America does not have another civil war.
I truly hope that America will overcome the pandemic. The poor and marginalized of all colours, races, and religions have always been the 1st to die from in any disaster – man made or natural.
@Kris B
Good luck.
@Jim Battersbee You too Jim
Is there a crime 45, didn’t commit, dang what a crook.
He’s never stolen bread to feed his starving family.
Trump and his crime family check all of the boxes when it comes to violating the RICO Act.
The Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organization Act (RICO) was passed by Congress with the declared purpose of seeking to eradicate organized crime in the United States.
A violation of Section 1962(c), requires (1) conduct (2) of an enterprise (3) through a pattern (4) of racketeering activity.
An “enterprise” is defined as including any individual, partnership, corporation, association, or other legal entity, and any union or group of individuals associated in fact although not a legal entity.
A PATTERN of racketeering activity requires at least two acts of racketeering activity committed within ten years of each other.
The government must show that the racketeering predicates are related, and that they amount to or pose a threat of continued criminal activity. Racketeering predicates are related if they have the same or similar purposes, results, participants, victims, or methods of commission, or otherwise are interrelated by distinguishing characteristics and are not isolated events.
For the the continuity requirement, the government may show that the racketeering acts found to have been committed pose a threat of continued racketeering activity by proving: (1) that the acts are part of a long-term association that exists for criminal purposes, or (2) that they are a regular way of conducting the defendant’s ongoing legitimate business, or (3) that they are a regular way of conducting or participating in an ongoing and legitimate enterprise.
Under the the RICO statute, the government need not prove that the defendant agreed with every other conspirator, knew all of the other conspirators, or had full knowledge of all the details of the conspiracy. All that must be shown is: (1) that the defendant agreed to commit the substantive racketeering offense through agreeing to participate in two racketeering acts; (2) that he knew the general status of the conspiracy; and (3) that he knew the conspiracy extended beyond his individual role.
The repeated diversion of the military 200 miles out of the way to be forced to pay to stay at his golf course in Scotland is also a RICO crime!

Already been impeached, and he just won’t quit. Put him in jail when he loses Nov. 3rd.
@Tony Nogueira Oh! do you mean that I have peen paying taxes since 1970 for nothing? I have paid taxes every year. Not so DJ! the only idiots I see are the ones taking the HYDROXYCHLOROQUINE and drinking Disinfectant. You are just like all the other 38% of the country who follow the mad scientist wannabe. You throw out those FAUX NUZ talking points (communist and socialist) like you really know what F you are talking about. How do you feel about fascism?
like your comment
He deserves to go to jail tenfold. 😓 that would be sad but necessary. Nixon’s actions look quaint in comparison.
@wolf spirit the white supremacist gangs would protect him.
@T W not even a challenge
Trump spreading his criminality to other countries in the world – even to some allies and friends of America. Not the best way to keep friends – or allies.
America does not have any friends..
He won’t get far in UK,he’s well erm..hated over here..there’s no way he would get the prestigious uk golf tournament moved to his course in Scotland 😅
David Clayton Not so Trump doesn’t have any friends,once he’s gone political channels and relationships can be rebuilt. We love America Trump not so much.
Trump’s typical tactic: do “me” a favor, I will give you what you want.
Trump: use money to get what “I” want.
Obama: use brain, discuss, and use human heart to benefit American people.
Classified to the Trump administration means contains evidence of criminal activity.
Mike Galbraith……..you got that right, he loves to spew classified info to the russkies.
Add one more at the top of his crime list:

Payoffs to The Bully puppets
There is no one dumber than a man who’d vote for a sociopath/psychopath TWICE!
Unfortunately, there are PLENTY of them.
Trump is So corrupt that’s Nixon will be like damnit I’m a good boy after all .
One Nixon did nothing wrong. He was by far one of the most intelligent presidents we ever had. Total introvert and genius actually. His foreign policy is actually required study at oxford and kings college in the UK.
Trump loves and cares for your family. America love all it’s non anchor baby population like no other country. FACT!
I like this man Rep. Lieu, speaks common sense and intelligently.
How is this man still our president?
Number one: it’s August, number two; look at the comment above this one and see the reply below it, here, I’ll just say it, he needed to remove from office but his enablers let him stay in power
Sure the F.B.I. may investigate. But nothing will ever be done about it.
If you’re naive enough to believe that Trump isn’t a habitual liar, – you also think the earth is flat and pigs can fly!
On Air Force One?
