    1. Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large numbers…
      We might need to mandate critical thinking courses in k-12 curriculum…

    2. @that wasn’t.chicken Minority rules*
      That’s how the Senate and Electoral College is gamed. The Senate “majority” represent 15 million fewer people than the Senate “minority”. And the impeached president got 3 million fewer votes, but won skewed electorates.

  1. “Fake news….”, Trump may have been facing bankruptcy before he was elected and spent the last four years embezzling as much as he could from the office.

    1. @Ginger Nightmare Habitual lying. Violations of the Emoluments Clauses of the Constitution. Tax avoidance. Tax cheating. Tax evasion. $6.9M of taxpayers and donors money went to Trump Org and he paid only $750 in taxes, claiming he continues to lose masses amounts of investment cash. Paid Ms. Ivanka, his daughter, $747,622 for consulting fees even though she is already in the family business and deducted it as a business expense.

    2. He has procured large loans over the past 20 years, yet he has been running at a loss. The likely way he got the loans would have involved misrepresenting his fiscal position to the lenders.
      These returns will be a road map to fraud and bank fraud charges. It’s either that or tax evasion, one or other or both.

    1. @Robert Buchwald The proof is right there to hear with your own ears. Try opening your mind and check it out, it’s easy enough to do because there’s a whole reality that would boggle your mind.

  2. Stop giving him respect by calling him Mr trump, he doesn’t give the Americans respect. Call him what he is animal

    1. @Brett S. huh he was a public servant for decades. If he paid millions in taxes in 2017 how did he make 10s of millions ? Obama’s net worth went up 30 times while he was pres. Trump’s was cut in half . Wow and who is the criminal and crook ?

    2. @P Pumpkin oh, GFYOURSELF. Trump deflates his properties to take a loss and not pay taxes. Then inflates his properties worth to get bank loans. They go up and down millions of dollars every year. That’s fraud.

  3. Cohen has been sounding this alarm for some time now. Not only is Prump not wealthy, but he is deeply in debt. Not a surprise for anyone with a functioning brain.

  4. For the more reason why he wants to stay in office is that we ,the taxpayers, can pay his debts….I’m so sick of him

    1. Also his loans are coming due. Don’t you think that being president gives him the opportunity to make these banks an offer they can’t refuse.

    2. @Michael Reid Joe Biden has gotten a government check for the last 47 years. Although the other day he said he was in the Senate 180 years ago? Government money outside of the kickbacks from China Russia in the Ukraine which made him and his son Hunter multi-millionaires

    1. Agree.. That is why I called him a true traitor. He cannot be in the oval office for another 4 years. He will continue to belittle our US Intelligence for any suggesting that Russia is attacking our troops and country in any way. Trumpid is forever in debt to Putin and his oligarchs. Stupid no brain “disgusting” Trump supporters, none of them are true patriots as them claimed themselves to be, wearing American flags and hats.

    1. Lynn Potter I actually am starting to feel sorry for you poor misinformed cultists. It is going to be so hard for you when you can no longer deny reality. Good luck I truly hope you recover.

    2. I don’t like people that spy and enrich their family through foreign relations , and that brag about using the leverage of their office to hold aid , or that don’t know where they are half the time, or that smell little kids ,not that got hairy legs , or that call God the thing . Wow I could go for days . Joke Hiden for nursing home 2020

    1. And remember, there are people who will be waiting for their money, clean or not 😬 I strongly believe he’s been doing business with crooked people and these revelations put a target on his back. Trump’s current and gloomy options are: go to prison, be murdered (he owes ‘dirty’ money), escape the country to avoid serving time (which makes him a flight risk), or commit suicide.

  5. LOL remember when Trump said “I’m Very Rich” and he was going to self-fund his campaign? Trump is a joke. Vote! Vote! Vote!

    1. Razz Matazz do you want proof when it happens it’s all around you. We are a free country they can’t shut business down and enforce bs masks that don’t work. If it worked wouldn’t you wear one in the flu season?the proof is right in front of you.

    2. Razz Matazz they are the same and they don’t want you to know that. You will give up your rights for safety. You are being lied to. Look into you tube X22Report it can help explain. New stuff every day.

    3. @Jesse Beebe You’re the one casually throwing terms (i.e. socialism and communism) around, not me.

      Mask wearing is to try to limit the spread of the coronavirus, when people must come together face-to-face, not an attempt to do any more or any less. Businesses were closed – some have now reopened – to try to limit the spread of the virus. Flus aren’t near as deadly as this virus. I’ve had the flu before and recovered. I don’t want to take the same chance with this virus.

  6. Biden paid over 3 million in taxes while this president paid under 800 dollars in taxes. Who cares about their country? whose the patriot?

    1. Joe Biden has gotten a government check for 47 ears. Although he had a brain fart on live television and said that he was in the Senate 180 years ago.. government money and then of course the big kick bags came from China Ukraine and Russia which made Joe and his son Hunter multi-millionaires
