  1. You know that every country is going to view this as an open invitation. Candidates will seek out the countries with the most against their political opponents.

    1. You talk like it’s something new lol democrats point out a boogyman and you guys blindly dive in head first

    1. @D Elder….the president is gonna be fully acquitted by Wednesday afternoon 🇺🇸
      He will be the first president to be impeached and have next to it” not guilty” and still get re-elected.
      Single handedly he demolished the Democrats into a million useless pieces

    2. I just said that as well. Nothing has changed in my 68 years. And I include the world in saying that. I recommend reading Nancy Isenberg’s “White Trash: The 400 Year Untold Story of Class in America”. I finally got a clue reading this history and it changed my perspective. We are not the one Nation the Founders meant for this land to be. We became the world. That wasn’t supposed to happen and it looks like the Southern Aristocracy is still seeking retribution for it. I don’t expect change as long as I have left on this Earth. It’s up to the young people now. But I caution, for every earnest young person seeking equality….there’s an opposition raised on Capitalism and greed. So far greed is winning.

  2. Jason’s right. Bolton’s already put party before country by refusing to testify in the house, and now he’s putting profit before country. And everything before the truth

    1. I’m a retired Soldier. i learned long ago that if someone is not reliable when things are normal they are absolutely not going to be reliable when things get tough.
      If we are relying on Bolton to help us save the Republic we are going to be grossly disappointed.

  3. And they say Ukraine is Corrupt . We became the most corrupt country in the world. At least Putin does his things in the dark but this took the cake –

    1. @Angela Siegfried Yep… obviously there is:

      Joseph Kasten

      MatterIsNotSolid

      Mike Smith
      …and the saddest Drumpfuck of all… Montauk Long Island

    1. @the blue penguin LOL The disappointment about how great things are going for this country now compared to the past eight years is by far a proof of the untreatable mental illness that is now infesting on your side! You lose the ability to recognize fiction from reality! (I understand Naddler is the blue penguin!)

    2. Misbah Al-Zayt the next president Bernie Sanders will have that effect. You’ve made it easier for him by giving presidents king powers.

    3. @Misbah Al-Zayt “untreatable mental illness which is now infesting on your side”. bahaha You trumpies are hysterical. And if you think this farcical “trial” is the end of trumps problems you’re incorrect. Oh, take a second and call Trump Charities. Wait, it’s closed. For fraud. He paid 2 million dollars in fines. Guilty of robbing a charity. Facts.

  4. is it time now! 🤷‍♀️ to get off the sofa yet?

    we have to keep asking.. friends do that
    🙋‍♀️🇳🇿🌏

    1. Jim Battersbee
      indeed we do 🙋‍♀️🇳🇿 we UNITE to protect our peace loving Nation!

      corruption & greed are everywhere and theyll take everything if you let them.. just in our Country.. 👊😁👍 we don’t let them!

    1. @UnderBridge Rock The usual reaction of the right to the problems they cause, blame the left, even though the left has little power to do anything.

    1. He is up for reelection this year. If the Senate is going to pass the buck to the people, then we need to take that up and decide on *all* guilty parties here.

    2. They have a nice racket going on though don’t they? all protecting each other. I’m stumped to identify a Republican of any stature ( or with little stature for that matter) who is willing to fight corruption or stand up and be honest- they are either too interested in feathering their own nests and/or too cowardly to stand up for the truth. This is beyond shameful. 1/2 years ago Republican voters were emailing myself and other’s that we were talking rubbish comparing Trump to a Dictator/ comparing the similarities with for example the Hitler’s use of legal “moves” to dissolve Democracy in Germany-sadly I am pretty sure they still don’t see what is in front of their eyes. Mitch, Trump, Trumps Party and his Legal representatives have neutered, ( or taken over) 2 parts of the 3 so called co-equal branches of congress. In answer to the historical question often raised – you no longer have a Republic…well done Putin and these crooked gutless wonders.

    3. @Ruth Smith they see. They know exactly who and what they are and what they are about. They just don’t want other people to really see. Too bad, you’ve been peeped so now it’s too late.

  5. I tend to agree. It’s like waiting for Saruman to decide whether to testify against Sauron, or make us all wait till his book comes out.

    1. Great idea. I was thinking more along the lines of Harry Potter but Lord of the Rings is perfect. Those Republicans especially, the Senators, have become ring wraiths.

  6. Mitch McConnell has three days to save his own worthless hide and the rest of the filth dirty remnants of the Republican Party.

    1. These rejects think the gop vote ends this. I guess they don’t realize things are gonna continue to leak as America decides what to do in November.

    1. @Jim Battersbee Schiffty Impeachment Co. made absolute fools out of themselves that Republicans can use in campaign ads.
      Face it, this is a WORSE loss than the election 2016. At least back then the Dems had a future to prove they represented the Constitution, Justice, and the American People. That’s ALL GONE NOW. They SHOT THEIR WAD.

    2. @TheBase1aransas wrong I think this woke up the sleeping giant that America is something will be done and the American people will come out to vote the blue wave that people are talking about will turn into Blue justice mark my words. the GOP had the chance to show face and at least call some witness and they choose not to now the American people know the truth on how on day 1 they weren’t going to do nothing about Trump. well guess what Trump did not elect you we the people did. yes trump has a big base but so do we.

  7. I agree Jason, they’re all playing a big f*cking game with We the People’s lives. So tired of these spawns. 😈

    1. @Harris Robot with IQ of 132. Whatever happened to the guy that took the fall for Trump’s pregnancy ending in abortion? Investigate. illuminate. Eliminate this monster.

    2. @Leslie Killam  Ohh yeah talk about the clinton foundation… WHERE THE MONEY….

      AND ALL THE THING TRUMP DID OBAMA DID IT TOO… 🤨

      WHAT ABOUT BIDEN IN UKRAINE, CHINA, IRAQ, INDIA…

      FUNNY THING IS YOU PEOPLE GOT NO PROOF…. WE HAVE ALL THE VIDEO ON INTERNET ABOUT THE DEMS…

      BUT NOOO IMPEACH TRUMP FOR BLA BLA BLA…

      Do your research… Dems are the puppet..
      Trump was unexpected… The people voted and they lost the power….

      And guess what the bildenberg group… That i am sure you don’t know has ties with clinton bush obama….

      Not trump…

      HE BROKE THEIR SHINANIGAN

      And now they are after him, slander him… Simple as that…

      Hes a billionaire and could enjoy is day on the beach… But no you people are so dumb that he need to get up there take the blows to wake you up….

      And by the way… Im not from usa 😑
      SOMETIME RESEARCH WHAT YOU THINK YOU KNOW….
      YOU WILL REALISE THATS WHAT THEY WANT YOU TO KNOW

      132 IQ 😂

  8. I’m going to start reading Bolton’s book the day it comes out. But I’m going to torrent it and he won’t get a dime of my money.

    1. @Some 1 Do you really need for me to explain to you why we have The Electoral College ? Are you that brain dead ?

    2. @Michael G still can’t stand yourself huh go get out mama’s basement and learn about how the world really works.

    1. We must thank Russia,China,and Ukraine for all their help.Trump is soaring. Thus election is just too easy running against a lifelong Soviet Socialist Communist with cardio vascular issues. TWELVE more years!
