    1. So you are for suppression of free speech like the rest of the Fascist Democratic party fraud syndicate?

    2. The radical Marxists Nazi’s on the left with there Gestapo ss tactics are doing that for four years and go lock yourself up bot and don’t forget to wear your mask and the democratic elites have some more Communist unconstitutional laws and rules for you

    3. Are you kidding? He’s their bread and butter. You think senile joe is going to attract viewers? Besides China is the enemy , not Trump, Biden, or even Russia. Dude they purposely released COVID and it crippled our economy. We are barking up the wrong tree.

  1. Trump is an agitator you can’t yell fire in a crowded theater. that’s what Trump is doing by instigating peotests.

    1. @UNITED NO MORE Nothing but evidence, as Trump committed treason on National TV, in asking a foreign government to attack in the USA on National TV, and they did. He then sent his people to get the information he requested.

  2. These Republicans who are contesting the vote are simply playing Trump’s base. They know that Biden is going to be taking over the presidency on January 20. History will either look at these maneuvers as treasonous or as a pathetically transparent political ploy, or perhaps both.

    1. It is treason and they deserve to be charged and also there positions in office to be suspended until court cases are over and any that don’t get to face the courts should lose there jobs , let’s face it what have they been doing for the people in the past 4 years nothing at all , it’s been a money raising scheme for the wealthiest people in the country .

    2. @Christopher Roberts you wouldn’t get the truth spirit of. The U.S. constitution if they repeatedly printed it on your bathroom TOILET ROLL or printed it on your mirror. THE LAST THING A TRUMP REPUBLICAN SHOULD WANT TO TALK ABOUT IS RELIGION AND THE US CONSTITUTION. EVERY BODIES GOT YOUR NUMBER ( MONEY AND GREED).

    1. @Mark You might want to check out the Senate intel committee report that clearly states that both he and manafort lied to Congress AND colluded with the Russians 😉 That was a GOP led committee bud LOLOLOL So sorry your wrong and at the hands of your own party.

    2. @Mark He also admitted to it and has since tried to correct it and give up evidence to prove he is telling the truth now and on who
      But hey, whataboutism, you guys are good at it, and yet you NEVER answer the questions, just deflect and think that two wrongs make a right. SO if Cohen (then a trump cultist) Lied to congress was it ok? Since he did does that make Manafort and Stone good to go for doing the same thing? Or ALL OFF OF THEM CRIMINALS FOR LYING UNDER OATH??? I choose the third one there. Funny your boy trump does not, he does not support law and order, he supports personal loyalty over the country. That is treason and sedition.

  3. why do the republicans all act like tv evangelists because they are after your money, thats the only politics they know.

    1. You pay 2x the price for gas, milk, groceries, and mortgage. You donate the remainder of your check to “liberal taxes” instead of your SAVINGS ACCOUNT. That’s a big “IF” you haven’t already fled to a republican state like all (4) of my neighbors on all (4) sides.

      You can’t help but laugh at the guy who gives away 75% of his income to mortgage and government taxes. We don’t need a wall around America, we need a wall around Texas to keep the idiots from fleeing the trash tent camp cities they created.

    2. And Democrats don’t want your money? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

    1. His daily outbursts and constant absurd and ridiculous tweets are mind numbing and exhausting…… maybe he and his entire grifting family can move to Schitts Creek and put up a big Trump sign on that run-down Motel LOL

    2. No! Don’t let Trump run away to Schitt’s Creek! The motel they used to shoot the series in in Canada, on a stretch of highway in the middle of nowhere northwest of Toronto, Ontario (search Google Maps).

      No, don’t let Trump get away. Don’t let him escape the United States. Don’t let him run away to a country without an extradition treaty with the USA. Take away his passport. Do anything it takes — he’s an extreme flight risk!

      Don’t let him escape justice. Send him up the river to jail, not a motel in Schitt’s Creek!

    3. @C.Profits You have no idea where I get my news from, or how I do my research. What indeed you are projecting, is what you narrow minded sheep do.
      I have seen comments literally echoing word for word what Trump fed them. I suspect that you do as well.
      All indications show that on the 20th Biden is going to be rightfully sworn in as the 46th president of the US.
      Anything you do is sedition, and should be dealt with.

    4. @Walter Lichtenberg Wally, SEDITION is what the Democrats have been spewing for the last 4 years.
      As it looks you have been a part of that ? Am I right Wally?

    5. @Walter Lichtenberg By the way Wally I have never advocated for violence.
      Sedition is a strong accusation

    1. @Mark …”the Confederate generals were great Americans and deserve our respect” – donald trump on why he vetoed the Defense Funding bill…

  4. Let’s quit calling it, “spreading misinformation”, and call it what it really is. LIES, LIES and LIES!

    1. @Generalissimo Donald Trump Yet no proof or evidence has been presented in any kind of court where it would have legal standing. You and your fearless leader Trump are acting like spoiled kids that are not getting your way, with the whole “Burn it down, and let God sort it out” You are willing to destroy America and all people that think differently than you.

    1. I see the Trump-humping cultist trolls are still active as ever. What a pathetic group of delusional degenerates. First, Biden is “sleepy and senile” and now he’s apparently “head of an organized crime syndicate”. Do you trolls never tire of showing the world just how despicable and incompetent you truly are?

    1. @Lupe Valdez Biden aided China with trade. Oil & influence in the infiltration and loss of jobs for the American people. How are the Democratic Governor’s & Mayors treating their small businesses now?
      They are bankrupting them???
      Don’t you see that?

    2. 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
      CAN WAIT FOR THESE DEMOCRATS TO GET THE HANGMAN’S ROPE!!!

    3. @quantumleaper
      Yes! He does!I mean nobody’s been put to death in this country during this period for 100 years! I think we could find a good date for him.

    4. In Germany they got a chance to vote for Hitler, or Hitler, or Hitler… In the United States the deplorable proud boys want to give us a choice too!
      We Can vote for
      1. The Impeached Motherfuquer
      2. Our Lord Littlehands
      3. Spankysky

      See? We’re just as good as the Nazis now if the deplorable pride cult has their way 🙂

  5. Lincoln must be spinning in his grave. His party, the party that held the country together ultimately became the party that destroyed it.

    1. Lincoln would be shocked at how the Democrats just moved their Plantations to the cities after the civil war and used their Slaves for votes instead of cotton…

    2. @UNITED NO MORE do more research. The Democrats and Republicans of today are not the same parties they were back in those days.

    3. I don’t disagree with you at all. FWIW, Lincoln called the Cabinet the Republican Party foisted off on him the “Cabinet of Rivals” due to the constant infighting and back biting.

  6. It’s just been a depressing 4 years and I’m not even including the pandemic. It’s a serious issue when you have a person in his position urging chaos and evil intentions. I just never ever thought I would hear the things I’ve heard from a president and the GOP when it comes to American democracy but then again none of us should be surprised when some of his first words BEFORE getting his position was grabbing women by their lower area. That was enough for me to think what kind of country do we live in when a person going for such a high position talks like that and to top it off he has a cult following who voted for that type of trash.

    1. @Mark You dip-sh*t Republicans have been in control for 4 years! Funny, how it’s all Republicans that have been indicted, arrested, serving time! Republicans have had 4 years to investigate …. and you’ve done nothing!

  7. The final throes of a demagogue are never pretty. Perhaps no one ever explained to him that it never ends well. He should have read the story of Huey P Long.

  8. This guy already becoming even dangerous to himself. He isn’t going to relax until Supreme Court steps in and he is facing real jail time.
    Lets see what happens on the 6th in DC. Will his personal army show up, and if yes how they gonna act there..

    1. this is so crazy, why has no one told him the stakes? what is right is right, smarten him up fast! Mike Pence shame on U !

  9. The GOP is a cult. They exist to remain in power in order to feed upon the people of this country.
    They are a cult. They cannot be reasoned with. They are hopeless. Beyond hope. This will not be “fixed”.

    1. For years, Republicans have been crying that the game is stacked against them (i.e., the “liberal media”). That alone should have raised suspicions. Even with the right-wing noise machine blaring virtually 24/7, they still cry “liberal media!” (upgraded to “fake news!”). Even with Fox News getting higher ratings than the “Fake News”, they still cry “fake news!”

      People need to see empty rhetoric and fear-mongering for what they are.

    2. THE Coup started when Trump was elected in 2016 & occurred for 4 years after with collusion & Quid Pro Quo allegations that turned out to be about Biden. Then continued into an impeachment scam that failed into a fake pandemic to pull off election fraud on a massive scale which included the horrendous mail-in voter scam. Now when EVIDENCE is being brought to light the courts refuse to hear it, so it cannot be tried & the MEDIA avoids recognizing it and reports it as FALSE to the public. ALL the while acting shocked and in disbelief that the very idea is nonsense to provide the few out in the public that are gullible or who really do not care about honesty if they can get Trump out of the White House.
      WOW!
      This is the state we are in, and you are suggesting exile of the only person brave enough to stand up to the OBVIOUS Color Revolution that is taking place? You are either a shill from another country posting to continue the crime being committed on the American people, or you are completely blind and ignorant and choose to stay that way by means of apathy. Do yourself a favor and do your own research because those who were once trusted with providing honest reporting with integrity have all been purchased by the CCP & are now acting as an armed propaganda machine in this silent war over the LAST FREE PLACE ON EARTH. APATHY & TOLERANCE are the last sounds of democracy! Don’t be part of the reason future generation of humans from across the planet have nowhere to escape to from the brutal treatment of socialism, communism and dictators that have chased generations here to the land that has provided freedom and a way to a better life to FOLLOW THE AMERICAN DREAM!

    3. @Rich Kilchrist Another long-winded, patriotic, “love of country” speech. They all sound the same, like Sean Scammity.

  10. You will see they will eat each other once they are served Subpoena and knowing there is no one to PARDON CRIMINALS. Every one will try go HIDING.

  11. All these Tumpers cry “look at the evidence!” But I remember back during the impeachment they were presented with MOUNTIANS of actual evidence and they chose to out their heads in the sand

    1. @Mark wow, just wow, even after 5 years of your cults ramblings I still get dumbfounded when I encounter it. You are a prime example of why it wouldn’t be a bad idea for National Healthcare, because it is obvious that you are not receiving the proper mental health treatment you so need. Hopefully your niece or nephew will keep tabs on ya and see that you don’t hurt yourself or others. Don’t worry bud we’ll get the help you need, hang in there brother component people are on the way

  12. SHOW THEM WHO HOLDS THE REAL POWER! THE VOTER. THEY WORK FOR US. WE NEED TERM LIMITS! STOP GIVING THEM CAREERS TO GET RICH & POWERFUL.

    1. Exactly! TRUMP WON! Biden Cheated and got caught. This will get straightened out and Trump will remain president don’t worry.

    2. Dominion and counting illegal votes at 4 in the morning when no Republican ballot watchers were around gave Dementia Joe more votes.

    3. And let me clairfly what I was agreeing to trump and his senate has done nothing for the people of the United States of America for the last four years oh and by the way BIDEN WON the election and it was fair cause we the ones who wanted change voted him out of office he can go play all day now without any hassle of working for the people of this country and there was no fraud at all on us voters except what Trump wanted he was the fraud asking Georgia to at least find him so more votes bribery is what it’s called and trump is not above the law he is the same as us so I suspose you better set up a go fund page for trump and his kids
