  1. Anyone that calls for violence from a governmental position against the United States needs to be treated accordingly by law enforcement.

    1. @TRUMP IS NR1 dominion was rigged how do you know what others know or don’t know? So what is really going, little one?

    2. @chilldude2007 He won’t last a minute anywhere. They’re not the only ones with guns but I guess they will running after a few of them feels a bullet.

    3. @Rejean Comeau 77 no sir. It is only one side who call for violence. Only one side who wants to overthrow democracy on this land, only one side calling for fraud but cannot do it in courts (no your Honnor, we are not claiming fraud), remember that? Only one side that refuses to obey to the Constitution of the united States. Only your side is threatening Republican Officials who did their job honestly, who respected the Law, who refused to bow down for one man. They bow down only to one thing they sworn on, the CONSTITTION. Only your side who threatened College Electors. That side is yours, liar. You tried all the tricks imaginable to steel the elections, but the Law won, the Democracy won, Biden & Harris WON! Crie baby crie 😭😭😭😭😭😭😅. Biden will be President on 01/20/2020. What can you do about it, again, ZERO. Both sides!!!!, You make me laugh. Bye bye!!!

    1. abolish the democratic party you are not tough girl. You may fantasize about what you think the left but in actuality you have no idea.

    2. @Harold Moore LOL, you sure sound like a real leader. Let’s break this down, shall we? Generic account name, joined YouTube one week ago, comments consisting of irrationally volatile statements comprised of bad grammar and spot-on current American English anachronisms.
      You’re probably either either a bot, ESL troll, a moron or some amalgam of the three.
      Regardless, your comments are perceived for what they really are, worthless drivel devoid of rational thought.

    1. actually, inciting violence is a criminal offense. for everyone BUT TRUMP and his cult for some reason.
      Whoever said crime doesn’t pay has never been TRUMP! trump’s been on a 40 year crime spree. litigating, threatening or buying his way out of trouble EVERY TIME! trump has bilked millions from the american people while pretending to be “president.” and its NOT STOPPING! people are still stupid enough TO HAND HIM their hard earned money.
      these last 5 years have been needlessly depressing and insane. culminating in 2020 – the year of HELL! MISERY! and DEATH! the GOP had MANY chances to protect our country from trump’s incompetence, corruption and maleficence. but chose to continue to subject us to his criminality and un-americanism.
      the treason being committed by trump and his cult CANNOT be overlooked and discarded. the dems MUST act and enforce the law once biden takes office. in fact, pelosi can act before that by refusing to seat ALL the GOP traitors who supported trump’s call for sedition!

  2. They’re trying to divide the nation, incite violence, even government figures are making it easier for foreign government’s to hack databases.

    1. @Robert Buxton nope they have a valid reason they’re sick of being shot by police that’s a legit reason, you clowns don’t have a legit reason Trump lost the election period nothing is going to change that

    2. @gabby Lane but but but muh dictator! How can he remain in power if the meaney dems won’t let him steal the election?

  3. Apparently, many members of the GOP never got the memo on their party’s campaign pledge to be the party of “law and order”.

    1. It’s funny to me too when I hear them speaking about how the left or Democrats are so violent when they’re the ones who have all these different groups who walk around with guns trying to initiate innovation and also try to plot to kidnap a governor and lets not forget all those bomb threats all those Democrats got the year before

    1. @Sultan Mahmood How did the democrats corrupt the state and national, election officials? How did the 59 judges throw out the cases ? I read some of the judges findings. There were some irregularities. Due to the sheer volume of people who voted in person , by mail and absentee ballots. None of the irregularities reported would have altered the election. Republicans were doing their usual attempts to suppress the vote even before early voting started. They were several court decisions , stopping the republicans for making it difficult to vote. When blacks are motivated to vote like in 2008, 2012, 2018 bad in 2020. It heavily leans blue. This isn’t new. In 2016 only 58% of Americans voted . I walked in and out to vote in 2016. No lines like in 2008, 2012 and the longest in 2020.

    1. LoL… Fox and Republicans will all be working on Trump TV with 50million subcsribers – Trump will be Mega Rich.

    2. Way more. In 1995, the White supremacist Timothy MacVeigh bombed the Oklahoma Memorial Building, killing hundreds that day. Over 100 babies and children in the daycare.

    3. @c. j. macq I hear the weather is great at Guantánamo Bay this time of year. Room for All the Trumpys, Kushners,126 House members, 18 attorneys general, several Senators and most of the cabinet. We could build Trumpy a golf course and he could play golf with all his little friends by day and Authoritarians R us at night! 😉😂🤣

    4. He has been publicly humiliated. And yes “…………sedition (is) illegal. He should be charged for inciting terrorism, violence, sedition and treason. He should “Be tried for treason”. For crimes that have been defined.

    1. @Alchemystical Adventures I’m sorry, Buddy. But your Orange Feurer is done-for. The electors (whom he ALSO tried to manipulate) have spoken. Bye-Don. & Buh-bye, trolls 😁

    2. @loudaddy2001 You’re right. It’s done . What Pence will do is a mere formality. He can opt out and in his place is the head of the house Chuck Shumer.

    3. @Gods Vibes Trump will be in prison (or dead). Personally I’d rather see him rot in jail, but I don’t think he’ll accept that 😈

    4. @liberty Ann except it was a democrat who actually conducted a mass shooting (mass assassination attempt) at a GOP softball game and all of the left was muted or actually applauded it…so stuff your altered reality

    5. how about a President that excites violence…?… never before America… and NEVER again elect anything close to a MONSTER such as he!

  4. Remember 4 years ago when Republicans called us cry babies cos Clinton waited until the next morning before conceding defeat!!

    1. @Kevin Hanson Well you can join Trump in Prison where he’ll spend his days and years…from all of the lawsuits bought him!

    2. Right?? And Clinton actually won the popular vote by millions! The Republicans stole the election from Al Gore in 2000 with Governor Jeb Bush’s help…Republicans are so used to cheating and getting away with it they’re aghast they’re not able to do it again. The electoral college needs to go!! Majority should rule! If a candidate wins the most votes that should be the end of it,plain and simple.

  5. He should be stripped, and charged with sedition along with everyone else who signed the Texas lawsuit b.s.

    1. @Lisa Zabriskie there will be a huge arrest of democrats..is that ok with you? Maybe even yourself…is that ok?

    2. @TRUMP IS NR1 dominion was rigged No denying that. I didn’t plant it. I never watered it. The neighbors did. Now it’s 6 feet tall and blossoming. If you get a chance, watch a film called “The Wave”. Yes, it’s a foreign film. It shows how easy it is to make stuff like this happen. I’ve told my friends on both sides of this, that I’ll pick up the pieces without them. And I mean WITHOUT THEM. WE can stop this, by talking to one another, and listening, and compromising. If you’ve given up on that NR1, than it is truly lost. ? Balls in your court.

    3. @SkyGemini Owww….stupid…. My goodness. Generally I find it quite common for those with nothing to say, of any importance, turn to name calling. 🧡 I’m actually curious if you read what I posted. ? I don’t believe I have infringed on anyone. The law says it quite clearly, as to what is allowed, and what is not allowed. The Supreme Court ruled perfectly well, considering what was sent to them. Now, we need the DoJ, and I hear W. Barr is leaving, under pressure, which doesn’t surprise me when it comes to an Autocrat, supported by minions of a fascist faction. We need the DoJ to do their job and charge those guilty of sedition. And I think we have a list., and it starts with the POTUS.

  6. I remember a radio show that said “do something crazy to win” and someone broke into a church and had sex, and the radio station found itself liable. When does liability start?

    1. @foed spaghetti It was Opie and Anthony in 2002, the only “prize” I’ve read of so far are charges of “acting in concert” and losing their radio show. I think the contest was just bragging rights. I’m not finding the final result yet…

  7. It’s voter intimidation and insurrection. Guy should be arrested and charged, and removed from office altogether.

  8. The orange guy started laying all this out months ago. And these lemmings are going to follow him right off the cliff. 😐

    1. @digitalbookworm5678…The mental picture of 70 million lemmings going over a cliff following their pouting, whining leader is just mind boggling. 😉

    1. @John Doe lol you again yelling ANTIFA. Do u even know what ANTIFA stands for..? I doubt it. Learn another TRIGGER word would you.. Please. 🙄🤭
      Quick question though, are you a fascist? You must be and sorry but thats nothing to be proud of mate.. crawl back under you rock.
      Bye bye. 👋 😊 👋

    2. @Sean Loon Anti-Fascists fought world war 2 to eliminate that cancer in the world. Moral of the story; Don’t be a Fascist.
