  1. GOP is now a criminal organization on trial in America who has created a monster! Trump! He now believes he can break all the laws of the Constitution.

    1. @Alfred Basurto AOC said the end 3 years ago bot so that moron said 12 a good number for her as she so stupid playing checkers with the Senate when that moron was checkmated 3 years ago

    2. @Bernadette Oliver Trump needs to clean up Catholic Nancy Pelosi democratic sanctuary district as she dont know how as she is so confused that she lessened to the marxist dictator moron AOC partisan for the demise of the marxist dictators on the left at least to 2024

    3. @Kathy Holland wow are you that stupid she brags she is Catholic as destroying a race as born she also preaches immorality constitution and democracy as she smears it with diarrhea out of her democratic sanctuary district off the streets…bot your not to much on facts are you than wonder why Trump will be acquitted and reelected

    1. Doug Rollings Trump defenders have no facts on their side so, just as Trump pushed the Bidens out to deflect from his actions, poor old KZ tries pushing out AOC, another completely irrelevant person to the impeachment and now trial of 45 — SAD! as his beloved president likes to say

    2. @Kathy Holland Hitler he tried to destroy a race like Catholic Nancy Pelosi destroying a race as born Hitler promised his poeple government will take care of you like the marxist dictator moron AOC Hitler overthrew the government with the help of the Gestapo SS like Comey to the DNC and Adam Schiff Catholic Nancy Pelosi and the rest of the Gestapo SS with there tactics Hitler preached propaganda for his agenda to make slaves to government control like AOC and the Gestapo SS tactics propergada news and exactly what the radical marxist dictators on the left are doing now

    1. Liar Scarborough ”fact checks” LOL you people are the dumbest in America.
      Even Fox gets 800,000 views while msnbc gets 100,000 – because the American people are seeing past your pathetic propaganda LOL

    2. Human 101 That just shows how many *stupid people* there are in the country that watch FauxNooz!
      That’s no different than saying how many followers you have on social media. It’s meaningless!

  2. It would be more interesting to see if you could find a time when traitor boy didn’t lie about something at this point…

    1. He didn’t lie about all the Fast Food he eats, all the Diet Coke he drinks, all the chocolate cake and ice-cream he eats(  Doctors are hiding the fact that trump’s brain has turned to mush and also hiding his drug use !)

    2. Republicans are the Dumbest Voters of America. You can tell them anything and they’ll believe it. I bet if I ran for Office my numbers would be tremendous. * Trump *

  3. Why even bother fact checking. I just assume that whatever he says is a complete & total lie. Anybody with 16,000 officially documented lies just within 3 yrs should never be believed in the 1st place.

    1. ROTFLMAO Trump, he arrives as a god-like figure at Davos his economy makes theirs look like a carnival freak show….World leaders see the Impeachment for what it is a political-fiasco-farce, China proved that by acknowledging that his re-election is assured and signed the trade deal. President Trump has shown the world what cowards were Obama-Clinton-Democrats, we finally have a president with cojones….he is a man above the poltroon pusillanimous….Trump’s ‘America First’ triumphs in Davos with a new message of economic success President Donald Trump found success at Davos through spreading his message that “the world is witnessing the resurgence of a strong and prosperous America.”Trump’s America First plan has helped support economic growth that is good for business. https://www.cnbc.com/2018/01/27/trump-triumphs-in-davos-with-a-new-message-of-economic-success.html
      Ugandan president praises Trump for his frankness: ‘Africans need to solve their problems’

    2. @Kathleen Mitchell I didn’t realize you watched President Trump over in Israel, zionist students are usually very busy

    1. It’s more than that — it’s a psychosis. Trump lies even when he doesn’t need to lie. He lies about silly, petty things as much as he lies about big things. Pathological.

    1. Mark G. People who have differing opinions from you are not soulless. It’s more soulless to imply that they are than that they aren’t.

    2. I can assure you that a good number of American citizens, especially trump’s cultists, in spite of their so called christianity, do NOT know what soul searching is!

    3. The next Election is SIMPLE it is the Future Elections and the People in those Elections where the country needs to do the Soul Searching. that need the Soul Searching.
      The next one should be just Vote these Evil pigs out of Office, no if no buts just get rid of as many as possible.
      What worries me ??? Is that watching this very closely (and all the Previous Elections to Bush Sr.) I have very little faith in the American Public to do anything … The people have a lot of power but are too scared or Brainwashed to use it. I Saw time and time again (even now) where all the people are staying at home doing nothing. I hate to say it but do not be surprised if trump gets back in due to that Apathy of the American People.
      THAT is what concerns me the most out of all this.

    4. @Aliens
      Poor primitive creature….. It appears that devoted trumpites are desperately running out of valid arguments……. Frankly, the abortion argument is pretty worn out by now, and it was always lame in the first place……… Try something more novel and original!!!

    1. @Mike Laing hahaha. And I suppose you think that right-leaning governments and leaders provide their electorates with more financial probity? When in fact all of the data shows that not to be the case. Look at how high the deficit is being taken by your financially inept president when he promised to bring it down. Your financial education must have come from the back of a box of cereal.

    2. Ian.. I just posted probably 2 dozen examples of elected GOVERNMENT LAW MAKERS with not only only both hands in PRIVATE investment markets, but the very markets that crashed the US economy, sending shrapnel into global markets. And that’s your counter! Comparing global market destruction to running a budget deficit? ( especially on a budget Trump state’s he’ll sign with all the left wing social spending,to avoid a government shutdown?)
      Lmao!!!!!!!!!!!!!’!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    3. @Mike Laing Look, we both know the house was controlled for 40 years prior to Newt Gingrich, and the contract with America. So we know the genesis of gov’t overspending, and the deficits that have mushroomed since, lie there…

      But Reagan was also a prime mover of deficits (for different reasons), and had a hand in the changing of the tax codes, and the “reclassifying” (for lack of a better word) of debt, so that it was treated as an “asset” (which it is truly not, and will never be)….

      That changed the game for running corporations forever…

      And when Greenspan began dropping rates in the mid 80″s after the recession, and all through the next 15 years, the “cost” of debt, coupled with the new tax treatment of debt, led to all sorts of reasons take advantage of that new “asset”, and made for the “perfect storm” of the problem we face today…..

      There appears to be no way, to “normalize” (vs historically) interest rates going forward…

      This WILL blow up again, and eventually it WILL crash…

      And both sides have vested interests in keeping it going for as long as possible…

      Just hope I’m gone by the time it happens…..

  4. TRUMP IS A LYING S.O.B. BUT EVERYONE IN THE WORLD KNOWS THAT. THIS WILL ALWAYS BE THE LOWEST POINT IN THIS COUNTRY’S HISTORY (AT LEAST TO 2/1/20).

    1. YUP YUP & THEN WE’LL SEE WHAT THE PATRIOTIC & THE POORLY EDUCATED DEPLORABLES DO!!🇺🇸💯💪✌😂😂😂

  5. In 2007, Trump sued reporter, Tim O’Brien and Warner Books for 5 billion dollars. In 2009, a judge dismissed Trump’s case against O’Brien. Trump appealed, but in 2011 that was denied, too. Trump accused O’Brien of being reckless and dishonest in a book that raised questions about Trump’s net worth. The reporter’s attorneys turned the tables on Trump, and brought Trump in for a deposition. During the deposition on Dec.19 and 20, 2007, Trump was caught lying at least 30 times.

    Trump had to acknowledge 30 times during that deposition that he had lied over the years about a wide range of issues: his ownership stake in a large Manhattan real estate development, the cost of a membership to one of his golf clubs, the size of the Trump Organization, his wealth, the rate for his speaking appearances, how many condos he had sold, the debt he owed, and whether he borrowed money from his family to stave off personal bankruptcy.”

    The lies Trump told were unstrategic, needless, highly specific, and easy to disprove. When he was caught lying, Trump sometimes blamed others for the error or explained that the untrue thing really was true,  at least in his mind. Trump’s lying deposition is now a part of the public record.

    This is a perfect example of why Trump’s lawyers never permitted Trump to be interviewed by Mueller. They know that Trump is morally and pathologically incapable of telling the truth, about anything..

    Trump has now told more than 16k lies since taking office. And the volume of lies that continues to flow from his mouth like a busted fire hydrant have only increased with time.  Fun fact: The first lie Trump told to the American people, the lie that would be the foundation of every other lie he would tell as president, was the lie he told when he raised his right hand, and took his oath of office.

    1. Fantastic comment!! Real Americans with morals and intelligence know better than believe trump and his cult. Can’t even debate one of his sociopathic supporters. They just call everything fake news and parrot the president. They follow the man’s words as if they are gospel. They have elected themselves a supreme leader and communist messiah. They are ok with becoming subjugated. They want a ruler to praise and worship. These people never question their God king trump. It is sad that they can’t be trusted. I will not work next to one of his cult members. They will lie, cheat and steal. Trumpist will destroy your career to further theirs. So be careful letting these people know where you stand. It’s time we take our country back from the nazi party of Trumpism. #nov3rdbyeturd

    2. +David J “…and the volume of lies that continues to flow from his mouth like a busted fire hydrant….” Brilliant. Please accept my compliments on your powers of self-expression.

  6. His lies are exhausting, same crap with 45 everyday. Hes an despicable disgusting disgraceful evil man.

    1. Magdalis Almodovar
      Yeah…….Absolutely exhausted and disgusted ARE the decent and honest citizens of this country!!

    2. @Barry Sutton you might have to take a seat, because you will get tired of waiting for that to happen trumpeter.

  7. When all of the information came out the president blocked the subpoenas at every turn now you got his republican senators keep saying why the house of representatives didn’t get subpoenas at the start how can you get information when you have some one playing cat and mouse with you.and the information that is given the important information is blotted out.so what is being covered up.

    1. Seriously?? WHY do you think it is being covered up??? ….Don’t ask the question when you know the answer … and in this case the answer is obvious.

    1. whatever happened to overwhelming evidence? it is flatulence in the atmosphere only Greta can see. the Democrats are trying to turn this into a Pro-Democrat circus….Rush Limbaugh on Nov.11th announced Lev Parnas was being groomed by the Democrats, they could have subpoenaed him, he is not protected by executive privilege….which should tell you it is all a sham. Executive privilege is the Constitution…..the Democrats are trying to convict via ESP…. what they believe President Trump was thinking face the facts, the White House provided Mueller more than 20,000 pages of materials, and the campaign has provided more than 1.4 million pages. It says more than 20 White House personnel have given interviews, including eight from the White House counsel’s office. Seventeen campaign employees “plus 11 additional individuals” have given interviews, Trump’s attorneys say. “The cooperation and transparency are unprecedented,

  8. It takes as long to “Fact Check” [review all the inaccuracies] in a Trump speech as it takes Trump to make the speech.
    Maybe cause it’s always all lies?
    Just sayin’…

  9. I love the fact that he wants to sit in the front row of the trial and let his ppl testifyWHAT IS STOPPING YOU
