    1. loll.. imagine kamala and biden dealing with china, north korea , russia ….dude prepare to move to canada

  1. End Tyranny November 3.
    VOTE early if you can. Request absentee ballots if you can. Show up early if you can.
    Do whatever it takes to keep our Constitutional Republic. God bless and stay safe

    1. Well this is not tyranny, I was recently thinking I have done way better with Trump as president than any other even Obama and I loved Obama! I’m leaning away from the left for the first time in my adult life. Y’all have gone too far with y’all BS!

    2. @Gnome Socks Bloodline is pretty bright. Where is the proof that Trump is a drug addict. May want to look into Biden taking drugs in order to speak full and clear sentences. He definitely is not all there.

    1. @Ken Bugbee Of course you did, random person on the internet.

      Thanks for showing me you can’t back up Trump’s none existent plan to replace Obamacare. Which we are still under.

    2. @Drake Fire
      Forcing citizens to pay extortion money to greedy insurance companies is not Health care.
      Limiting people’s choices on doctors , plans, premiums and treatments is not freedoms the government should take away either.

    3. @Ken Bugbee Which is what Republicans want to dive more into. Democrats, on the other hand, want to rein in these companies so their abuse of their costumers actually stops. Saving lives shouldn’t be a business.

      But don’t mind the fact that Republicans have no actual replacement plan. Just leaving people out to die.

    4. @Logan McLean Here is the complete timeline of Trump’s attempt at healthcare.

      “In 2016 he said he would repeal and replace Obamacare in his first 100 days.
      In July 2017 the Senate failed to pass “skinny repeal”; no replacement was voted on.
      In October 2017 he allowed health care plans that don’t meet Obamacare standards.
      In April 2019 he said he “was never planning on a vote prior to the 2020 Election”
      In June 2019 he said he would be announcing a plan within two months.
      In July 2020 he said he would be signing a plan within two weeks. (13 months later, not 1 month)
      In August he said he would be introducing it “hopefully, prior to the end of the month”.
      In September he signed an executive order to protect the preexisting conditions already protected by Obamacare. Regarding the replacement for Obamacare, he said “I have it all ready”.

      Trump has been saying it’s just a minute away since the start. He has failed to deliver. Just like everything else.

  2. THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH SENATOR HARRIS….YOU WILL MAKE A GREAT VP….BIDEN-HARRIS….INTELLIGENT, FAIR, SMART…AND I AM CONFIDENT YOU AND BIDEN WILL SURROUND YOURSELF WITH THE BEST PEOPLE….NOT THE STUPID CRIMINALS OF THE drumpt administration…………..

  3. Don’t think for a minute that republicans in Congress and their agents on the Federal bench care one iota about the average American.

    1. @Z06 Guy
      Yeah cause he’s a smart business man
      du m my…if u owned a business u would know how that works…but ur a barista at a coffee shop…sooo keep spitting that liberal news rhetoric hahahaha

    2. @Illmatic 1 You got that the wrong way round. The Dems introduced ACA and the GOP have fought to strike it down for years. John McCain saw the value of it, or spat in Trump’s eye rather than give him a victory. Where is Trump’s better version of ACA?

    3. @Jim McLoughlin
      Y’all need to start actually READING instead of listening to cnn and fox news then going out and having diarrhea at the mouth..it’s quite cringey and lazy..thats what’s wrong with people now…now politely get of
      u tube and try again 😉

    1. @clarkb91All those goodies are socialism, paid by taxes. You take the goodies, don’t want to pay the taxes. Ok, you just proved you are a troll, g’bye.

    2. @SoCal Surfer16 I thought trump was going to repeal and replace Obamacare, what happened? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 what’s trumps policies if he wins the election? 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸TUCK FRUMP🇺🇸🇺🇸 btw I’m a lifelong republican country before party

    1. @Lou Montana ACA for sure because it’s a disaster to begin with, and so far Trump has been in office 3 years already and no ethnicity has been “cleansed” as you suggest. Try again

    2. @Lou Montana do you even know how many black unarmed people died at the hands of police last year (or this year) in compared to white people? I’d suggest you make sure you know the numbers before making claims because this conversation isn’t going well for you…

    1. @Maria Cox Considering that I got my permanent resident card under this Trump administration, I’d say I have more proof than you of Trump not being a racist than your hollow claim that he is LOL

    2. @Pedro Munoz None of those issues you mentioned indicate that they don’t care whether you or I die of Covid, so that’s a non answer, indicating thereby that your initial premise was faulty – to put it kindly. Dare I say LOL?

      But you feel that Trump is the paragon of honesty and virtue?

  4. This woman is dangerously unAmerican/anit-democracy (and pro-theocracy), and just plain nuts (glassy-eyed cultist in the People of Praise).

    1. After we take back the White House, Senate and keep the House. We’re coming after you evangelicals, we’re going to tax your churches out of existence. After that, we’re going to look into your tax records and other records to uncover decades of fraud.

    2. @Cynthia Copland : Oh, so you can’t attacked her on her character, so you’ve reverted to calling her names ? I spent 40yrs with people just like you. Only they were 6th graders (12yr olds).

  5. How, for example, can one reconcile the presidency of George Washington, the boy who never told a lie with that of Donald Trump who can only tell lies?

  6. Which American soldier would risk sharing a trench with Trump, a man who abandons his allies for personal political gain?

    1. Had Trump went to Vietnam as a 2lt, he would have quickly been fragged out in the jungle. Problem solved a half century ago.

    2. @Jeff Webb

      Such a shame that guy was born. It wouldn’t have stopped islam/zion for doing what they just did. Specifically zion.

      Right now putin is doing “peace” talks with the Authoritarian leader of isreal. Then he is on to islam.

      The rise of dictators.

      We will all be forced under zion.

  7. He’s trying to take as many people down with him as he can, with the coronavirus. striking down healthcare giving rallies with no mask he’s just backwards..

    1. @A ShoNuff Some of it was actually correct. The focus on lockdowns led me to think this was a new dump strategy to re-open the economy.

    1. @Lou Montana

      He is using propaganda and trying to make others think they are crazy. When he is the nut job. The alt right will start doing that soon. Like on myspace.

      Anyhow, putin is doing “peace” talks with the Authoritarian leader of isreal and islams.

      This is the rise of Authoritarians.

    1. Or a Stepford Wife. I thought that these evangelical wives should be at home, in the kitchen, barefoot, pregnant, “Dugger style”, uneducated, and making dinner and then for desert, going at it missionary style for her husband.

  8. Over 9 million people have already voted. Instead of confirming a SCOTUS, Senate and House should be working on economic relief and pandemic solution.

    1. Conservatism/islam/zion use a virus for benefit.

      Right now putin is doingv”peace” talks with 2 other Authoritarian right wing leaders. Islam and zion leaders. He is talking with isreals Authoritarian leader.

      Authoritarian globalism. Everyone will be forced into these made up religions now.

    2. thanks to Nancy retired her pelosi this bill has not been done. her hatred for the president is bigger than helping the american people.. its all about winning the elections and not give trump a win

  9. I don’t care how impressive is the stepford wife with her no notes. These mofos are fully set on breaking up the union. It’s out there.

  10. The only issue with the ACA is that it was brought by Obama. Trvmps deep hatred for Obama is such that he would have the ACA repealled to spite obama and his legacy while not lossing a night of sleep by also affecting millions of lives in the process

    1. Ehh I don’t wanna call her ‘little girl’. But I believe she’s small minded about health care and reproductive rights for sure. Can’t believe she’s being rushed through like this 🙄 We gotta do better next election.

    2. understand that the only weapon use agaisnt trump is that he is races etc.. but in actuality this president done more than every other president to help. Many blacks and latinos are voting for trump so that makes us all white supremasist…

    1. She is a zionist shill.

      I never listened when ppl said that.
      But, the isreali Authoritarian leader and putin are doing “peace” talks right now. Then on to islams leader.

      Usa has Conservatism due to zion.

      So the planet will be under Authoritarians and zion will be forced on everyone.

      The rise of Authoritarians. Who are why blacks, gays,jews, muslims were slaughtered. They recruited europe under zion. As islam recruits blacks. Islam/zion loves a martyr. They use “us vs them” games and propaganda.

      Also, A virus is a benefit.

      Ask yourself. Trump is pandering to who and why. What Authoritarians benefited from trump and why.
