  1. Governor Desantis is not doing anything. He is failing in Florida and wont mandate masks and forcing kids back in class with the virus raging.

    1. You’re governor is an ediot get rid of him in election time 😃😃😃😃😃😃😃

    2. DeSantis really Blew it…..He Bragged, bragged, bragged & look at Florida. As usually instead of taking credit they have done two typical things. Blame, blame, blame They said Young people are the problem & number 2 people from the North coming to Florida for vacation. At a time when very few people were traveling. Unless all those people who Fled New York (the wealthy) brought it down with them. lmao

    2. @Mainely They don’t hate America. They hate an America where they have to compete on an equal playing field. They know they can’t.

  2. Without a doubt the worst President in history who continues to live in an alternate reality where he is the number one person who knows how to fix things. Obviously his mind has checked out from the job. Vote in November and get rid of this clown.

    1. @David Wild The fake news people want you to live in a fantasy universe. Conspiracy fact – Obamagate — Obama, HRC, deep state characters conspired to derail the Trump candidacy, then the Trump Presidency. They tried to frame the President for conspiring with Russians, enlisting the powerful resources of our own government agencies! The entire Mueller fiasco was mounted to achieve those ends. But they failed. Undaunted, they came up with another scam — Trump-Ukraine. Failed again.
      CCP hates Trump..wants him gone. What better weapon? — a pandemic, plausible deniability. Top Dems are in league with the scheme. (The enemy of my enemy is my friend.)

    2. Conservatives Up to 16% less intelligent due to low cognitive ability. Liberals as a group tend to be better educated than Republican Party voters and sympathisers in the US.

  3. Its the RepubliKKKans fault for not holding the president accountable. The Senate has blood on their hands for acquitting him. They need to be voted out!

    1. @Florida Wildlife
      YOUR IQ
      Conservatives Up to 16% less intelligent due to low cognitive ability. Liberals tend to be better educated than Republican Party voters . Conservative Syndrome explains the link between religiosity and lower intelligence.
      Social conservatives, not just religious people, score lower on measures of intelligence.”
      social conservatives, including very religious people, tend to be more restricted in their views of the world,”“Because of their lower IQ they are more close-minded and afraid of change. They also tend to be more nasty towards those who do not belong to their own group.

    2. NO!, NO!, NO! If you say the senate has blood on their hands? You do NOT just vote them out for blood on their hands! This is TREASONOUS and MURDEROUS acts of crime against the American people! After they are voted out of office, they must be completely destroyed economically and put in prison for life! We can and must stand up and fight against this malignant cancer in the white house! This does include the whole evil family!

    1. Corporate mindset: There no money to be made in outright curing a disease. Continuous treatment is where the money’s at, and so the coronavirus must run rampant regardless of how many Americans suffer and die in the end.

    2. Trump’s a simpleton, a textbook narcissist, and a typical abuser, he’s pacifying the data in the same way a violent patriarch intimates and tries to prevent their victims from speaking out and getting help.

    3. @Chad Clanton
      tRump may not have a plan!
      But that little invisible man sitting on his shoulder sure has!

    4. Yeah exactly it’s like Jesse Ventura always said to stern “just follow the money Howard…just follow the money”!!! Well just look at the HHS secretary Alex Azar go look up his past quick then you wonder why things are happening the way they are!!

  4. By November the red states will look like slaughterhouses. If Trump can’t see that, then good riddance. He doesn’t care about the lives of his own voters.

    1. Jason Boyce yeah because the President literally says that mask don’t help, he keeps saying it’s proven that masks don’t help. Sometimes people need a little guidance. “Monkey see, Monkey do”

    2. Politicians never do care about their constituency they only care about votesand it’s playing out in real time we can see it everyday on the television with what they’re doing in the news cycle

    1. Do you mean the tapes of Trump’s “puffery” which, according to him later on, no serious investor would rely on? Sounds like everything he says in politics!

    2. Look at the risk Trump and his Republicans are taking with their own families lives, do you really think they care about your lives??

  5. GOP senators had a chance to fix this back in February. All they had to do was DO THEIR JOB, uphold their oaths, and remove the SOB from office. Now they’re reaping the whirlwind. I hope they all go down in flames…

    1. @Robert Andrews I’m afraid I can’t take credit for it. It’s something I heard in the movie “Truman,” where one of Harry’s old school buddies is commenting on using the atom bomb. And I’m thinking he was probably quoting someone else. In any case, I’ve always liked the phrase.

    2. I really believe they were promised that if they voted against calling witnesses and subsequently acquitted Trump, he would be sufficiently humbled and would settle down. Now, even Mitch is supporting masks

    1. Just moscow mitch an republican senators . Stupid is as stupid does all so watch out for that fat (barr. )

    2. I want to correct your statement,
      We have been failed by the GOP members of our Government who have aided and abetted a deadly
      Dictator that is actively working to
      destroy our Democracy…it is the
      people in Government that have failed us. Our Constitutional system
      Is great… But it depends on honorable people that live up to their
      Oath of office.

    2. Maryland’s governor, and to a lesser extent Mitt Romney are the only two Republicans who have shown any level of sanity.

    3. All parties have something worth saying in America! The republican party has truly disappeared however, as even Reagan would be ASHAMED of his party! This rotten display of trump ignoring rule of law in Portland? He sends in his SS TROOPS to stop what is a constitutional law and right given to the American people to protest if they choose to do so! There is NO ANARCHY! Even trump is too stupid to look the word up! LOL! Sending troops into any state for this reason is ILLEGAL! It’s time to use force against trump, when reasoning and talk do not work anymore. The governor of Oregon has an obligation to protect it’s citizens and bring in the national guard, in volume and numbers to stop by force this corrupt act of dictatorship. Realize this and DO SOMETHING about it!

  6. Trump and his cultists’ mentality: We want the economy to open and life back to normal….just slow down and defund testing, don’t wear masks and don’t worry about social distancing. Unbelievable idiocy.

    1. They are just following their leader. When the orange blob monster keels over and dies, the cultists will take their cyanide tablets !

    2. Trump lives in a constant state of delusion. And his followers willingly join him in his delusions.

  7. Poor management of the covid crisis will be the downfall of of this arrogant clown along with the republican party

    1. Skynet I can’t believe it has taken a pandemic to show blind Americans what a dummy you have as your leader.

  8. Isn’t it enough that the conduct of the President of the United States signals the need for a dementia examination?

  9. .. giving up on him coz he’s been giving up on the country – if he ever cared in the first place, that is..

    1. This man child has broken many toys. He’s the only child who has killed over 137,000 + people. That’s more lives than Vietnam and World War 2.
