'He Got Caught And Then He Wrote That Note' | Morning Joe | MSNBC
I love watching the orangutan squirm in it’s cheap Chinese suit.
@Box Jabber
Yep. Bribery 101. That’s what Bernie is fighting against.
LOLOLOLOL!!!!!!😂😂😂
MAGA MY Azz Getting Arrested
Please do not use ‘orangutan’ to describe Trump. They are noble, sentient inhabitants of the planet and have nothing in common with him, except colour.
He has Alzheimer’s.
They’re not doing this for thinking people, they’re doing it for talking points for his minions.
@Black Feelreputable enough, they would love to have the scoop on any REAL info that PROVED the Bidens did something illegal.There are plenty of right wing news outlets in this country. You havent been able to put together yet,that NO incriminating evidence has been found by anyone? And you call people sheep that watch CNN? lol.Youre the real sheep man.What you “fake news ” people fail to understand is that MONEY is their god,meaning the news org,not any democratic or republican agenda,and if they had anything it would be out there.

@Black Feel
No – it wasn’t debunked – I just happen to know enough to know that this is SOP. The information was not destroyed, personal devices that held it were wiped and physically destroyed when they got new devices. That is because software like bleachbit can leave traces behind, so the devices have to be physically destroyed to be sure that no one gets their hands on these discarded devices and possibly reconstructs some of the information on them. My brother was an Army intelligence officer who did two tours at the pentagon. In his offices, they had something like an industrial strength shredder, that would literally eat a blackberry or smart phone, and spit it our in bits. Three of his phones went through that machine – but no information was ever destroyed.
It’s a security measure, you dimwit! And different departments have different ways of destroying the phones. So what you are trying to make a crime, is State following proper security procedures to protect classified information.
@Black Feel
Yes – reasonably so, but there is no need to rely on them. We have Trump’s own releases and statements, deposition transcripts, the Mueller report, Don Jr’s emails, Manafort’s emails, the Stormy Daniels indictment naming Trump as a co-conspirator in a felony, witness testimony carried live on almost every network. We have PRIMARY sources for enough crimes and bad behavior to dump this guy 50 times over – we don’t NEED news networks for that!
@Black Feel your English needs work comrade
And to pack the courts with staunch conservatives for life.
Someone wrote the note for him, because when he goes out there without one during this trial he commits another felony. He probably was also told by a real lawyer who is probably now spending the day in the Whitehouse because the way he is going they will have over 100 counts at his trial. The idea he will run out the clock by winning is ridiculous, I am sure he will commit more felonies as they go through his taxes and who knows what else. The 5 year statute of limitations if he runs out the clock by winning starts next February.
The note was definitely written by Trump. He’s the only one in the government who writes with a Sharpie.
Have been keeping an eye on that statute of limitations for a while now…certainly ties into all the possible motives for his scrambling around to ‘arrange’ re-election, doesn’t it?
no dumbassed donny wrote it, its all caps but the letter i has a dot on top, thats what mentally unstable people do
The GOP has no clue how much hatred the country has for its unconvincing lies and arrogance towards the law and the public. Many public servants in history were executed for a lot less. Their constituency will hold them accountable. Trump is a career-ender, and if they think he will put them first they are sorely mistaken. Before the end Trump will throw them all under the bus.
Final Press USA blame Fox News. It is all Fox News.
@Fali Disu I don’t have to attack Fox News. They wrote their own death sentence when they became the only news network on the entire planet reporting the opposite of what everyone observes. Nobody believes all news networks are “fake” apart from Fox. The president can say it over and over and over but it will never be true because people know better.
@Final Press USA “Their constituency will hold them accountable.” Will it, though?
@Opus Metalli Yes they will, because most of them are intelligent members of society that the GOP had under estimated, grossly undermined, and whose patriotism has been betrayed by the very people they mistakenly voted into power. Just like trump.
Zelensky is spelled wrong on his hand written note. Did he write that or his pit bull communications director Grisham?
He’s a dotard, what did you expect.
SKP215 he can’t even spell his own name! what you expect?
Why you gotta drag respectable, loyal dogs like pitt bulls into this mess? what did they ever do to you? lol.
@proud2bpagan Pitbulls HAVE been known to drag small children around in their own yard, causing damage and trauma, sometimes even killing their owner bringing them food, LOL
I guess it’s like….being the most corrupt president in US history. Saying he’s against corruption….🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Trump believes that if he writes something with his black sharpie, it makes it true.
@David Lafleche 😂😂😂 are you writing denials in sharpie too?
Russia if you are listening
@Dolores Reynolds 😂😂😂 right?
@Alice T you must have 👄👅 it to know?
@Annie You can’t accuse Trump of a crime committed by Biden.
It’s like a car thief looking straight at the dash cam and realizing he’s in a bait car suddenly blurting out, “Silly me! This is not my car!” After he had already smashed the window, jumped in and begun hotwiring it.
“Hey, I didn’t steal it. I only attempted to steal it. See, big difference. No crime then.”
EXCELLENT example. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Trump writes and speaks at a 3rd grade level.
deathsyth8888 most definitely
SO YOU CAN UNDERSTAND HIM, BOT.
When “your rich and famous they let you do anything”..including teachers lying for you and giving you good grades, with trump’s daddy paying them off. I doubt if trump’s intelligence level is more than the 6th level. Which is why he has to lie all the time to make himself feel all big and powerful, smart, clever and “knows more than anyone ever in history of when the world was first created”!
amazing how white privilege works. If trump was a Black man who writes like a 3rd grader, engaged in rampant criminality, bragging about it on tv and calling the FBI “dumb” & “human scum” , used the position with his family as his personal cash register..no question that not only would he be sitting in a prison cell faster than you can say “wtf”… he would likely have been killed by day 3 of his presidency
Trump saying, “I want nothing, I want no quid pro quo” after he knows he’s caught is like if you’re taking a a diamond bracelet from the store and suddenly notice there’s a surveillance camera, so you look into the camera and say, “I’m not shoplifting, I’m not shoplifting, I’m not shoplifting!”
Exactly!
The really damning thing is that the term _quid pro quo_ was never mentioned until the whistle blower came forward and the media started using the term. In the normal course of events, Dumbo would never have used a legal term like that. You could hang him on the strength of that alone.
@Frank Winkhorst – You’re absolutely right. When the term was first uttered, trump even had difficulty knowing how to express it correctly. You may recall him saying “NO pro quo!” It’s like HE BELIEVES if he says something often enough, _he literally creates his alternate FAKE world._ We saw that with the Mueller Investigation; “No collusion!” trump is guilty of loads of crimes, we’ve ONLY JUST BEGUN to see them exposed
Exactly
😂😂😂
Look at his handwriting style….looks like a kindergartener with crayons..lol
He was trying to write but his little hands and little brain don’t coordinate very well.
His signature looks like a failed lie detector read out. Funny that?
Who cares about his handwriting
With that writing I suspect Alzheimer’s.
Chambers Ratcliff …you don’t tell me what I can comment about….if you don’t like my comment ….go do your usual….& go play with your brother’s genitals….you miserable witch…
He’s so childish! He’s a danger to the world in that position.
Barry Sutton
Stop whining. Kremlin Don has been running an international crime syndicate from the White House at Putin’s direction. You have to be a special kind of stupid or a troll scum traitor to our country if you believe that’s acceptable.
The truth is out. Stop kidding yourself. This is neither liberal nor conservative. It’s blatantly treason. Duh
You’re a danger to yourself.you’re not utilizing the critical thinking skills not questioning this propaganda
@Barry Sutton AND YOU SERIOUSLY BELIEVE IN THIS JOKE OF A MAN HE SOUNDED LIKE A KID ( NO.QUID PRO QUE I DONT WANT NOTHING NO QUID PRO QUE !!!!!! REALLY WHO SAYS ANYTHING CLOSE TO THAT ?????? YOU SIR SUPPORT A STUPID MORON THAT IS ON A 4TH GRADE LEVEL JUST LISTEN TO TRUMP TALK
AND NO THE WHOLE WORLD ISNT LYING ON TRUMP OK FACE IT TRUMP IS SINGLE HANDEDLY DESTROYING THE REPUBLICAN PARTY WATCH ELECTION TIME WATCH LOL SILLY GULLIBLE MISINFORMED TRUMP. GROUPIE (.LIKE AMERICA IS GONNA BELIEVE THIS KNOWN LIAR OVER HIS APPOINTED STAFF THAT TESTIFIED AGAINST TRUMP ‘ THEY HAD ABSOLUTELY NO REASON WHATSOEVER TO LIE ON TRUMP YOU DUMB TRUMP GROUPIE
SORRY, NOY SCARED , BOT.
SNL is going to be hilarious this weekend.
@Robin Lillian Thank you Robin! Solid response to a bott.
@Robin Lillian I have a great sense of humour that is how I know SNL is crap and always has been. Now I have enjoyed comedians who have come out of there Eddy Murphy (Golden Child is a great movie and says way more than people know) enjoy Bill Murray The Man Who Knew to Little is hilarious and Ground Hog Day is also a movie that says more than it let’s on, and of course one of my favorite Christmas movies National Lampoon Holiday Vacation with Chevy Chase. And when it comes to sitcoms I love the Simpsons, Home Improvement, Seinfeld, Mash, Mary Tyler Moore, and the greatest acting ever to be in a TV show All in the Family. I prefer SCTV over SNL. Will Farrell, Jimmy Fallon (I think he was on SNL) are total creeps can’t stand even looking at them. My gut tells me Will Farrel is a monster and a kiddie diddler and so I won’t watch anything with that creep in it.
I have always thought SNL was way over rated, badly acted, and to full of themselves to even be remotely funny though it has had its moments. Lastly there is nothing funny about what is going on. The destruction of America is at hand because the functional psychopaths who run this world selected the incompetent Donald Trump for a reason. Millions of people are homeless, China is the new Nazi Germany and are slowly gobbling up the world; soon drones will fill the skys. And so I am not interested in a show that has outlived it’s lifespan and should have been turfed long time ago. It’s not that I am an extremist it is just that my sense of humour has sophisticated taste.
@curtusdanton61 How do you know I am a bot just because I made a simple little comment about a crap show? I did not watch this show since 1977 because I do not think it is funny badly acted badly written and full of it self.
You are as funny as the show NOT I bet you think I am a fan of Trump. Your as simple minded as he is if that is the case and since you jump to ridiculous conclusions you would be easy to manipulate. There is nothing funny about what is going on and if you think that you can surmise who I am from that little comment the world is over your head.
@Elijah James you’re a Dump supporter. Couldn’t be more obvious
The behavior of a child that got caught doing something wrong.
Well he’s a manchild
@Jose Castorena …. Agreed… He most likely has never made or bought his own food. He has never done his own cleaning or laundry. Everything he says and does, no matter how obviously wrong, he insists is right and will never own up to and just say he made a mistake. No control over his words and actions. This could have easily been the description of an elementary school age child, but unfortunately I have just described the president.
excatly
@Frank Winkhorst very poetic n well put….bravo !
Bobby Bobby
The behavior of a conman scrabbling to save his con.
“That note, must be found and framed for future generations to understand the level of intelligence (or lack of it), of trump! 😂
He probably wadded it up and threw it on the floor of the limo after the photo op….’well, that’s settled…don’t need this anymore…’
Totally agree with you! This is shocking!
Put it on T-Shirts someone, pleeze…
@Jack Boot Brilliant idea!!!
the only reason republicans exist is ignorance. america doesn’t need a minimum voting age, it needs a minimum IQ requirement to vote.
Trump has to remind himself in big bold black marker print to tell the people he’s not guilty
Time to create Trump fonts based on that note.
@Final Press USA You’d need to create a font that deliberately misspells words.
@U.S.S. Scambalam
This is how many years Donald Orange Trump deserves in prison:
👇🏾
@Nonya Bidness Don’t care, it’s true. Keep ticking people.
@Celyphillyswag Quintana
🤔🤔🤔🤔
That is how many years Dishonest Don Trump deserves in prison.
Times ten 😀
Nonya Bidness
👇🏽
♾
And the six times bankrupted fraudster, gutless draft dodger, felonious tax evader, compulsive liar, creepy pervert, radical white nationalist and treasonous Russian abomination Donald John Trump will go to prison in the near future.
Unless a blood clot takes care of the gluttonous lardarse first of course.
Not all heroes wear capes.
its in ALL CAPS BUT HE PUTS A DOT ON ALL THE LETTER “i” like all the stable geniuses do…..
hahahahahahahahahahaha
It’s a bit like a child writing his own sick note for school.
@Rodney Boehner So the orders from today’s GOP missive is parrot “fake whistle-blower complaint, fake whistle-blower complaint”? They keep it simple for you bots, don’t they? They keep it simple for you bots, don’t they?
@Better English It’s more like he went to McDonald’s and never bothered showing up to rob the bank.
@Dee Pattison If he said “I want no quid pro quo” before Sept 9 as FactCheck asserts, then he is innocent because no one except the IG knew about the complaint before that time.
Rodney Boehner, nice try but we all know Trump probably never even knew the MEANING of the word before accusations began flying. Even so, by Trump’s own acting out of this conversation, while waving his sad dementia notes in front of newscameras, Sondland, a friend of 10 years, who of course he NOW hardly knows, was admittedly literally yelling at him about this, demanding to know what exactly were his intentions with these actions cuz he was getting flak! How do you know HE didn’t bring up the word himself? Once accused, compulsive liars and psychos always deny deny deny, even to those closest to them! You are grasping at straws saying this angry conversation proves anything!
@Karen Kirwan Well that’s not true either. All the Dems were falsely accusing him of quid pro quo during Russiagate, so he’d be very aware of the term. It’s like if he said, “I want no collusion,” as well. You can’t say he never knew the meaning of that because all the Dems did before was accuse him of quid pro quo, obstruction and collusion during the Mueller probe. Therefore, there is nothing odd in him saying that.
