Inside Accounts To Ukraine From President Donald Trump Allies | Deadline | MSNBC

    1. It’s easier for the MAGAs to cuddle up in their fantasy world than they have to face the hard reality and admit to themselves that they were conned in the most simple way possible. Self-deception’s cozy.

    2. @IbrahimConlonArchitect Biden is not the front runner anymore and Sanders is sick. Warren and Yang are the new top tiers. Trump risked everything to shoot at the wrong one. He’s just too stupid.

    3. @Dusty Rains Because he actually talked about trade. Because he sees china for the threat it is. Because he promised lower taxes and jobs. Because cultural Marxism makes me sick. Because he took no special interest money. Because he was the first person to really make immigration a topic. Because he promised no new wars. Because he wasn’t a politician. I can go on and on.

    1. It speeds things up, but the speed limit keeps increasing. Trump keeps adding on illegal stuff and it feels like investigators are being left behind with all of the illegal crap.

    1. @Dusty Rains Then impeach him. Actually do me a solid and bring up the crimes. Except obstruction in the Mueller bs. Tired of arguing about that.

    2. @Jock Young He is also the leader of the executive branch and can order investigations into corruption. Send it to the courts and let them decide.

  1. If the GOP had moved right from the get go, this would not have happened. They failed, they placed party over country back then and they still doing it today. The people will remove these criminals, one by one slowly but surely.

    1. Sounds fascist. If you failed they would remove democrats. Trumps obviously pushed democrats off the proverbial cliff with this kind of talk.

    2. exactly! if he has been held accountable when he went out of bounds, he wouldn’t have kept thinking he could get away with it. the republican senate have failed in their oath to uphold the constitution.

      they should have said no when he alleviate sanctions on russia. they should have said no when he caused the shutdown. they should have said no when he was caught lying about trump tower moscow. they should have said no when he took money from military projects to pay for the wall. no one should have allowed him to say “shoot the migrants”

    3. Tes Tos. Sadly is not their party over country, it is self interest over country. They would throw anyone under the bus if it guaranteed they would keep their power jobs; or in near future keep them out of jail. Listen to ex GOP guys or those resigning before 2020; and more will resign before then….including Moscow Mitch.

  2. The real horror of all of this is not Trump’s obvious treason, but that so many Republicans who know better are willing to sell their souls to back him.

    1. Babes, the Webernets worships me. If you can’t pick up on the words….So does Trump. Peace.

    2. I’m sure many republicans don’t actually support him they just have no political future unless they support him because of the monstrously ignoranct base they helped create

    1. Paddy McGrath Except it sounds now like they are going to go along with Trumputin and try to make nice/ hand over their territory to Russia. We really stabbed a nearly defenseless country in the back, and told it to go to the other hand holding.a knife for a bandaid. Putin is laughing himself sick…

  3. I was disapointed Hilary Clinton didn’t come after Trump for his slander. That’s a crime in itself he’s doing to Biden too.

  4. The silly old fool. He picked the wrong country. He won’t get a moment’s peace trying to be Putin in America.

    1. Chuck Martin : First, I am NOT paid by anyone. That is ridiculous. Is Trump perfect ? absolutely not, but that’s not the issue for an awful lot of people . Dems better deal with all the people who do NOT want the democrat / liberal agenda they are looking at right now. If they don’t ? It will be 2016 all over again.

    2. Gary Campbell You are just too stupid to read. Court docs, public records, Congressional records. It is all in there. Documentation of trips to Soviet blocs starting 1984, free trip to Moscow, lovely lodgings in the hotel connected to the Kremlin, all mod cons, fully wired for sound, more trips trying to get business going, sent kids with Felix Sater (Michael Cohen’s Russian friend and Trump adviser) who took Ivanka—with Putin’s permission, he was off on a trip—up to Putin’s office and let her sit in his chair; Trump took his voyeur’s delight “beauty pageants” to Moscow, had another in PR where he let Putin’s girlfriend win, had one in LV, expected Putin to show but he didn’t. He cheated Jeffy Epstein out of a property in FL, demolished the mansion on it, and—in middle of housing downturn—sold it for twice again what he paid to RU oligarch Rybolovlev.
      It’s obvious his supporters refuse to see the truth when it is proven— your delusion is stronger than your love of country, of honesty. Stick your head back in the sand, take a deep breath, don’t think—oh, wait, you already don’t.

    3. CFR Andre : This is the amazing rhetoric people around here tuned out long ago. What has happened, or didn’t happen, BEFORE he was President is not relevant. Bottom line. We do NOT want the democrat / liberal agenda we are watching every day. Now, the people in the middle size towns, small towns, and rural areas WILL get him a 2nd term. Dems have already found out, you can’t win with just the coasts and a handful of states in between.

    1. The Democratic Party chose to lose to trump by rigging the 2016 Primary in Killary Clinton’s favor over Bernie, a man that would actually represented most Americans! Our horrible MSM was complicit in the rigging. Most democrats are republican lite. Wake up!

  5. He secretly invites other countries to get involved in our democracy, gets caught, becomes unhinged and then blames another party. GENIUS!!! Mister Collusion Delusion impeached himself. Bravo to you sir! 👏👏👏

  6. The Gop are protecting trump over This country and American citizen , why i am not surprise!
    They are hiding something….

    1. Its an ego thing. His supporters don’t want to be wrong. They’re racist and don’t understand politics. That’s what it is.

    2. It’s the SADDEST thing. Trump’s openly a RACIST, a THIEF and a TRAITOR yet, the # GOP continues to support & enable the CON MAN, as they, Choose party over country. I PRAY AMERICA doesn’t FORGET that when they VOTE !

  7. Seems like republicans care more about a failed man over your country. You seriously gonna keep that gasbag in office.

    1. @FBI duty Every Trump supporter has a Right to announce their utter stupidity by making such statements on the internet.

  8. The Donald has been a criminal for most of his life.. that’s all he knows.. he is now CRIMINALLY INSANE !!!

    1. The rats are all nervously plotting the locations and proximity of their comrades to busy bus routes as we speak.
      I’m picking they will be hurling each other into the nearest dedicated bus lane in the coming weeks.

  9. With Watergate, we had to wait YEARS to learn the whole story. However, times are a’changin’ with our current technology.

    1. tRump going to prison is a nice idea, but it’s doubtful he will over this. He will likely resign though, and after that he might get in trouble for his tax evasion and likely money laundering…Deutsche banks dealings with tRump are still being investigated and will hopefully be released soon.
      Nobody deserves prison more than tRump and his cronies/accomplices.
