Nicolle Wallace: Trump Seeking To Erase Disgrace Of Mueller Prosecutions | Rachel Maddow | MSNBC
You can’t un-write history.
The left is sure trying to rewrite it tho.
Jefyt 67 – With all Trumps vindictive, petty, childish rigging of the judicial branch the last couple days. The LEAD HEADLINE at FOX NEWS is: “Donald Trump wins New Hampshire Republican Primary” State Run Network indeed. The combo of TRUMP/GOP/FOX NEWS is the cancer rotting the U.S. from within.
1776: The USA was founded on gaining independence from a corrupt monarchy.
2020: The USA has to ONCE AGAIN gain independence from a corrupt monarchy due to GOP senators.
When can we start investigating Gym Jordan for his behavior at Ohio State? Ivanka Trump’s trademarks with China, and how about Nunes’ phone calls with Lev and all of his cover ups?
Jordan occupies our district house only by crass hooliganism and gerrymandering. There is a big push in our district to recall him. His OSU involvement is 100-fold more involved than anyone at Penn State.
laura mcdougal I’m sorry about that for your community. I want him punished and gone because I am a dem but mostly because he help harm children. It doesn’t matter what party you are from people that hurt or people that help hurt kids have no place in our communities or our government
I totally agree they all should be investigated but that doesn’t mean that Jordan gets a pass because of these other traitors don’t. Just think of your child be molested . That’s how I see it anyway . I’m not disagreeing with you
Napolitano predicted on Fox that Trump would survive this one but be impeached a second time, probably for defying the Supreme court, and lose that one. There are court cases coming up, including his taxes. Get ready Trump will face the ultimate disgrace for being impeached TWICE
@christopher weise A lot of good it did. They hear truths but brush them away like gnats swarming their faces. I will never understand the literal blindness to the evils and blatant corruption of this mob boss in the oval. I remember thinking the Access Hollywood tape was enough to stop him. But obviously, there is a mindset in those who support him that is as evil as his own. God help us.
Pamela Cable – Indeed. November 3, 2020 is a literal fork in the road moment for the U.S. The country can NOT stand another 4 minutes, much less 4 more years of Trump. Hang in there.
@christopher weise I will. And you, as well.
Stalin thought he could erase history too. This is why local and State elections are just as important as Presidential elections. Vote these Republikkkan traitors out of office and then lock them up.
Bernie is Stalin’s love child.
@brian gardner And, tRump is Hitler’s.
@brian gardner no, but YOU may be the love child of close relatives who didn’t breed for intelligence.
So for all they have found about Trump is the whole American Government been knee capped by this President and they are going to sit back and let him destroy the nation
Dave Seddon Really? Just Google “Iraq War death toll” Thousands of Americans soldiers died there, and those who did not die have MASSIVE deadly medical conditions (as will their children & their children’s children) from radiation exposure (radiation from the weapons/bombs )…not to mention the INSANELY high level of Iraq War Vet Suicide. Then there is, of course, the million dead civilian Iraqis (many women & children) that MSM never mentions.
@M A
You don’t know much history do you?
Dave Seddon I see your local is lsr@eI. Makes sense that you are pro-American death & slaughter of innocent Muslims for your own agenda kind of thing
Bush is responsible for so many deaths re Iraq..but had no idea whT he was doing.
The Trumpster on the other hand knows exactly what he is doing. An unjailed criminal who should be impeached again. The Roger Stone -gate is sooo criminal it almost defies belief. Teump is sooo stupid and ego ridden…so self centred. His world is Donald Trump.
I say it again .. he is a disgrace to the Great Office and a disgrace to himself.
He has drained the swamp alright and replaced it with a far darker swamp …himself.
.
Only someone not very bright and guilty would act this way.
And only in a country as desperate and corrupt as the USA would they get away with it.
It seems so easy, yet your elected democratic dream team loses every battle.
totally!!! but it doesnt matter when you are king. why isnt schiff doing anything about it???!! hahaha
Just imagine if a career criminal and con-man became president, and he systematically dismantled the DoJ, and then turned it into his personal tool to use as a get out of jail free card for himself and his criminal cohorts. It’s the kind of thing we thought only happened in 3rd world banana republics, controlled by despots Trump is the heartbeat of the swamp. He has become the gold standard for corruption.
John Dean served as White House counsel to Nixon from 1970 to 73, he was a key figure in the Watergate saga—participating in, and then helping to expose, the most iconic political scandal in modern U.S. history at the time. Back in 2016, Dean said that Trump could easily be the most corrupt presidents ever—and possibly get away with it.
“The American presidency has never been at the whims of an authoritarian personality like Donald Trump,” Dean stated. “He is going to test our democracy as it has never been tested.”
Dean stated that he is not only convinced that Trump will be worse than Nixon in virtually every way—he thinks he could possibly get away with it.
“I used to have one-on-one conversations with Nixon, where I’d see him checking his more authoritarian tendencies,” Dean recalled. “He’d say, ‘This is something I can’t say out loud…’ or, ‘That is something the president can’t do.’” To Dean, these moments suggested a functioning sense of shame in Nixon, something he was forced to wrestle with in his quest for power. Trump, by contrast, appears to Dean, to be unmolested by any such struggle.” Dean went even further in his assessment, stating: “I don’t think Richard Nixon even comes close to the level of corruption we already know about Trump.”
Totally correct imo. Trump is a corrupt, abusive sociopath from way back. He takes no responsibility for himself everyone else takes the fall. He lies like every good criminal lies
I would love to see him in jail, or lifetime community service raking the forest lol. He once suggested raking the forest to prevent fires.
David, he’s already said that he would Acquit himself and that the 2nd Amendment gave him the right to do anything he wants. I say, we might as well throw the Constitution and Democracy out the window. We have one shot…Extreme voter turn out in the General election, vote Blue and vote to get these corrupt GOP Senators out.
For a minute I thought you were talking about Pete the Cheat.
Right …… Clinton and Obama almost got away with it .
How come so many people around trump get convicted, but not him, even though he’s the author of their crimes?? That is not fair to the American people.
@Eastern Woods Flawed!? I think it was done with all malintetion. Not the Mueller report but the DOJ-Barr interpretation.
@Tony Smith yep! Every time.
@NBK Krypto I think the GOP has done that all on their own. The “do nothing party” for the last 10+ years. And people keep voting them in every four years without fail.
For the number of crimes committed by this administration, the next administration will be pretty busy if they go on to investigate and prosecute this administration.
Trump and Barr duo have made a mockery of American justice system and Moscow Mitch McConnell have given them a blank check.
Online It is an effective propaganda attack ad, RUSSIAN cyber warfare against anyone that stands up for America against IMPEACHED imbecilic paedophile trump aka individual 1, RUSSIA knows trump is the only way into America and RUSSIA will defend and protect their PATSY at all cost, IMPEACHED imbecilic paedophile trump aka individual 1 is an empty vessel in which RUSSIA aim to take over the running and control of America.
History wouldn’t have to repeat itself if only people remembered the lessons of the past.

In1933, Adolf H. became the Chancellor of Germany. Afterwards, he and his Nazi party immediately assumed dictatorial powers over the German people. That very same year, the Nazis opened their first concentration camp. In a time span of less than five years, Germany went from a democracy, to a dictatorship. That’s how fast it can happen. And if anyone thinks that it can’t happen here, then you are sadly mistaken.
“If you can get people to believe in absurdities, then you can get them to commit atrocities.”
— Voltaire
History: “Don’t make me have to repeat myself!!!!” 😠
Germany had Hitler and Russia had Stalin. Both elected to office, becoming dictators, and destroyed their country causing the deaths of milions. In both situation you had good men who could have stopped them, refused to step up out of personal fear, or loss of position. Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutly.
AND THE JEWS FLED AND SET UP SHOP HERE,…ADOLPH IS COMING AFTER JEW PUPPET TRUMP LEAVES
@George Thompson 😂😂😂
This is not a Presidential Administration. It’s a criminal organisation with a mob boss acting as criminal-in-chief.
Keep taking Maddow seriously. Please.
@Kevin NYC Maddow is a serious journalist and academic, unlike those hacks at Fox Noise.
@Michael Humphrey oh i know she is! like i said please keep watching.
@Michael Humphrey Fox Noise just reported the DOJ made this decision a week ago. Trump had nothing to do with it. Apparently it only took a phone call to get to the bottom on. You can get back to your serious journalism now.
Sure@Kevin NYC. Whatever dude, if you like listening to college dropouts delivering your news.
No need to erase it from the history books.
t’rump supporters don’t need facts to believe what they believe.
Plus they’ll never open a book, let alone read it. 😆🤣
Ro G 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yall wouldnt know. Youre in your safe spaces dying your hair blue and high from the fumes!
Ro G …you are so right! But, we must make sure future generations read about Trumpadick Arnold!
Vivian Perino Trumpadick Arnold tho lmao😂😂😂
Keep poking the bear…
Trump seeking to Erase his disgrace. So he’s switching from Sharpies to pencils?
@Joseph Inman you guys are really STUPID people!
The less you understand reality the stronger we become TRUMP2020
David V enting his liberal TDS on YouTube again.
Let it out Dave, it’s ok.
Rewriting History. I guess it’s *1984* thirty-six years later.
Impeach Barr! And, Impeach the Gaping Orange Pucker, again!!!
@Jefryt 67 They already did it once. I know it’s hard to get actual news, since you’re watching Fux, when your head’s not up Drumpf’s orange @**, next to Putin’s arm.
@Sun Wukung oh yea I forgot. He is impeached foreverrrrrrrrrr. TRUMP 2020
@Jefryt 67 They are intelligent they proved their case. The Republicans or should I say the spineless crawlers refused to find him guilty so they could hold on to their jobs
@SandyD no even close. They sloppily hurried to a vote and then expected the Senate to clean up their disaster. They also falled miserably with the Mueller report. They are completely inept but eloquent liars.
Donald Trump didn’t come to Washington D.C. to drain the swamp he is the SWAMP. #Change2020
@Anne Marie well little girl. U obviously DIDN’T GET TROPHIES EVERY TIME U PARTICIPATED. BOO HOO. LOLOLOLOLOL
@Anne Marie
The point is, you have no defense, I’m right and you know it. The best you can do is make some childish crack about not being a “therapist” and accusing me of “hate”.
Pretty funny coming from an American, the home of Trump, the greatest hate monger on the planet.
Bye.
More people voted for Trump in NH than did for Obama and Bush combined. #fact
@Anne Marie
Hahahahahaha:)
End impeached trump lawless autocracy!! 😡😡😡😡😡
Jail Barr and other accomplices ⚖️⚖️⚖️⚖️⚖️🇺🇸
Barr took care of Epstein for traitor Trump and covered it all up.
And what about the lawyer trump used at impeachment hearing he was also a part of Epsein’s pedophiles, and Barr’s father hired Epstein to work at that school years ago.
So are you saying our own DOJ ordered his murder? Well. No surprise there.
MSNBC is really top journalism with the most informed viewership. I dont know where we would be with out them.
Somebody did. Hopefully we’ll find out someday soon.
Find a way to rid the justice department of this appalling stain. Get this man out of one of the most powerful positions in Washington DC..
