    1. @Callie Smith would you put a loaded gun in the hands of an angry spoiled teenager that didn’t get what he wanted? No! Give trump the insurrection act and he’ll overthrow the government tomorrow and become the dictator in chief Forever!! You need to stop getting your information from his tweets and start listening to what everybody is saying including most Republicans that started speaking out.

    2. @sandra casso He’s had four years to overthrow the government. And get back to focusing on how both the Democrats and the Republicans are screwing over the common US citizen. We need to get rid of the corrupt legislators as soon as possible. They waited this long for such a pathetic bill. In case you haven’t figured out yet, Trump is nowhere near as much of a threat to this country as the Democratic and Republican Uniparty are. For decades, they’ve been screwing people over and for some stupid reason, we let them do it because ‘not my party’. This COVID bill is a perfect example of the evils of the Uniparty and you want to focus on Trump instead of the bill written in Congress? At this point, whatever you say about Trump is utterly meaningless because it’s just a diversion away from the true problem at hand.

    3. @sandra casso oh you so cute you obviously believe the lies the left are saying it’s okay I use to be dumb like you about trump and the democratic agenda but I really listened to what he does and says we all know somebody who says the wrong thing but we know where his heart is he loves this country and he really wants to make America great again 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👍👍👍👍💪💪💪💪💪Trump Pence 2024

    1. @Mondfischli keep laughing because thousands of illegals are heading this way. They heard that Biden got elected and there’s going to be free education, health care, and jobs for all. That means less for you.

    2. Shut up about Trump! Congress is the real enemy at this point. They’re giving us jack while pointlessly spending money on foreign aid while people here are dying. No wonder he’s hesitant to sign it. Congress is holding the country hostage.

  1. remember when Trump said back in 2015 that if he was elected President he wouldn’t play golf because he would be too busy working LOL

    1. @Gary G Don’t have to look it up. I know that is a fact. Orange clown inherited Obama’s great economy and ruined it by down playing the virus.

    2. @Tru G please tell me what the vice president can do. You obviously have no idea how government works. The VP has no power except to head committees and break ties. The worst thing Biden has ever done was to certify the results of Trumps win in 2016.

    3. @Tru G the economy was NOT the best under Trump. Trump has repeatedly said this same thing. The problem is that the stock market which is doing very well, is not the economy or an accurate indicator of the economy doing well. By all other economic indicators Trump is far down on the list of presidents that we’re good for the economy.

    1. @Tyler Durdin Any receipts for all that TDS snowflakery? One single legit fact to back any of that up? I’ll wait

  2. Seems Covid-19 hasn’t killed enough Americans, now Trump is willing to starve a million to death before he leaves office.

    1. Or they can just go get jobs instead of living off government checks. Amazon, McDonalds, Home Depot, Uber are all hiring. You are not above this kind of work. Soon you will have no choice! Get back to work!

    2. @dragonfly6908 The countries of the EU show a very diverse picture, their mortality rates ranging from 7.2 … 156.7 deaths per 100,000 inhabitants. The UK for example has the fourth highest mortality rate. The US mortality rate is currently 100.9 deaths per 100,000 slightly higher than the UK (96.3).

    3. @Ver Coda Too bad Fox and NewsMax won’t show him play golf but “hard” at work videos. Just nothing can help poorly educated people. smh!

  3. In the meantime wifey wearing 8000 designer shoes! And GOP having a wonderful Christmas while people go hungry and no jobs

    1. LMFAO! you do realise trump’s already got 7 contestable states, right dummy, lol. and guess who gets the SOLE deciding factor of whether those states get a vote in congress in january, LMFAO! i’ll help you out here, lol….. it’s Pence ya nazi-crat traitor, LMFAO! and Pence’s decision is a lock. no other branch, including the scotus, can change it, lol… as of right this minute, what does your feebly educated little mind think Pence is gonna do when the official votes goes down in january? if he sinks just 3 states, bidens 270 is GONE. and if he sinks just one more, trump’s victory is locked in, LMFAO! now run along my little nazi-crat and get your google going hard and long, lol… maybe you’ll actually learn something, lol….

    2. @Vaughn Besley You’re so right, unfortunately. What I wonder is where do these people get these stupid ideas that Pence has the power to change the will of the American people? But to actually go on a public forum write about it, like they actually believe it? Mind boggling.

    1. Look at what Trump is doing , not what he is saying RM 🏌️‍♂️🏌️‍♂️🏌️‍♂️🏌️‍♂️🏌️‍♂️🏌️‍♂️🏌️‍♂️🏌️‍♂️🏌️‍♂️🏌️‍♂️ , $0 for military $0 for Americans $0 for ppp and stimulus for Americans unemployment $0 what’s the President of the United States doing ? trump is out golfing in a diaper🏌️‍♂️

  4. That’s how much he loves America even his voters people are starving and he’s playing a game he’s terrible at

    1. @jim mayors JUST LIKE THE GERMAN PEOPLE WERE SPOKEN OF AFTER WW2 .PEOPLE WILL TALK ABOUT YOU TRUMP SUPPORTERS.LIKE ” WTF WERE THESE IDIOTS THINKING? ” YOU IDIOTS WERENT THINKING IS THE CORRECT ANSWER. MORON.YOUR STUPIDITY WILL NOT BE FORGOTTEN.

    2. @Mr Mann you just confirming even more what everyone knows. Trump supporters are ignorant idiots that have absolutely no clue about anything.

    3. @Illuminated Mind How old are you? Who taught you that baloney? YouR tax money is going to other countries, more than what you are getting as a token stimulus check. You are saying American families are “sufferings”, but most of your money is being given away to FORIEGN governments. They take $5,000 and give you back $600 to make you feel good about being ROBBED

  5. How many of you all enjoyed a holiday?
    OR instead have been more stressed out then you could have ever imagined…

  6. He’s spending millions a day on golf trips. WHAT A MEAN PERSON. I worried about the children without a Christmas.
    THIS MAN IS A DEMON MONSTER

    1. He owns the golf course. He has always played golf and made business decisions while playing. Take a moment to think before you pass judgement, at this point in time , the President has few places to speak without cameras in his face and media twisting his words. The stress he is under ,I doubt you have experienced. What he’s trying to do may be for you and America. Are you aware of the new agenda Biden is supporting for a world reset and what that entails? Trump is America first, he’s a nationalist not a globalist, that why he is hated and he is all that is stopping this agenda so far. Do you realise the times we are in?

    2. @Good Shepherd The American taxpayers pay for the accommodations of secret service personnel and your hero Trump is charging them top dollar despite the fact that he owns the course. Do you really not see the grift?

  7. Max projected in his book : “anyone and anything Trump touches will be destroyed or damaged.”
    This year proved it is true.

    1. @Linda Observes Linda, you may not understand this yet, but many people with God firmly in their lives do not believe in these false prophets that have helped build Mr Trump into a cult-hero, and are now trying to help him hold on to power, despite his defeat in the recent election.

      Sadly, many of those preaching what they believe to be “God’s word” on the subject appear to be overly influenced by the promptings of their own personal desires, political partisanship, worldly ambition, man-made religious beliefs, selective Biblical readings and interpretation, and cultural preferences.

      All this forms a tough overlay or filter that makes it impossible for anyone to hear that genuine ‘still, small voice’ within, and interpret it correctly. It arises from the natural human tendency to egocentricity, a limited view of reality that I’ve come to believe is the equivalent of and likely simply another name for that force that was known as Satan or the Devil in days gone by.

      I’m afraid those American Christian Churches that have been led astray by powerful temptations to worldly dominion (clearly anti-Christian, as shown by Jesus’s flat-out rejection of Satan’s temptations with which he tried to lure him off his correct, spiritual path and mission, in the desert) have a time of great cleansing and reassessment coming, which may be a painful and confusing time for many but will be beneficial in the long run. God bless you, and the USA.

    2. @Linda Observes Which “God” is it you’re referring to?? Is it one of the many Norse gods or one of the many Pagan one’s? Or is it, perhaps, one of the numerous Greek, Roman or Egyptian gods? Or maybe even one of the great many Gods of the Native Americans or other Indian cultures? Or is it merely just the current singular God of today’s Christians?

      I mean, if you want to talk about an ignorant, un-Godly, Godless mess than lets talk about that YUGE orange turd you oh-so-obviously idolize.

    3. @Linda Observes TRUMP IS A CROOK WHO HAD TO SETTLE OUT OF COURT FOR 25 MILLION FOR HIS FAKE TRUMP UNIVERSITY SO HE WONT GO TO JAIL

  8. He’s letting the govt. spin out of control. Isn’t this what a narcissist does when you leave? Rage and destroy stuff?
