    1. @Liberalovsky Fredo Moscowitch a super majority of the conservatives are draft dodgers!
      Being loyal to the constitution is not something they’re proud of, and not required by their masters!
      Speaking about the turd, please tell us more about what he’s been loyal to, all his life?

    2. @Liberalovsky Fredo Moscowitch I’d like to know where you got your numbers from. I got mine from the Military Times in 2018 prior to the mid-terms. Of those surveyed combined male and female results show Republican support of 45.8% and 27.7% which is hardly a supermajority. These numbers, btw are just NCO ranks, not officers. Of course, as I said if you have more recent number or a different source then I’d be glad to take a look.

  1. The disgrace to the presidency protecting and defending war criminal and bad mouthing true American hero’s.
    These war criminals are only props to “small hands square pants” reelection and nothing more.
    His spanky-aid swilling dotard base will cheer him for protecting war criminals.

    1. I’ve never served but respect the women and men that do and from the military people I’ve met you can’t have cowards who by political reasons get to be commander then try and overturn experienced military judges and leaders decisions. Trump is trying to divide the military and he will force put the honourable military men and women and replace them with his lackies and thugs so he can use them to protect him if he’s removed legally from power! The DoD are under attack by these right-wing fascist who would have a military the same as Russia. They don’t have honour! They have fealty to Putin. The American military are better than that and trump would have people like Gallagher in charge!

    2. Ez-8 the word disgrace is really not sufficient for the incestuous lunatic,but there is actually no word that does.

    3. The Toasted Hippies he is totally evil,but that still doesn’t really describe him,but I think that is impossible.

  2. Impeachment update- Howling Trump-et’s claims“of absolute immunity.” In blocking witnesses “giving evidence,” has ‘no legal’ basis. George Orwell’s book, “Animal farm” a “fairy tale.” It documents the rise of Soviet Russia to the zenith of statehood after the overthrow of Tsarists Russians. The final scene opens around the farmhouse occupied by the pigs (stereotypes are implied), while other Animals of the farm, staring in, they see transformations of pigs to humans. This is one of the greatest moments in literature. It disturbs, it frightens and its true… But was it about Russia? Oh dear, nervous yet, The transformations are exposed.

  3. Another quid pro qou in the near future.. ” I need a favor though ”

    Sharp shooter.. “just tell me who “..

    1. I met a traveller from an antique land
      Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
      Stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand,
      Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
      And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
      Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
      Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
      The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed:
      And on the pedestal these words appear:
      ‘My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
      Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!’
      Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
      Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
      The lone and level sands stretch far away.[4] Ozymandias by Shelley

      this is the future of Donald Trump

  4. “Above all, we should bear in mind that our liberty is not an end in itself; it is a means to win respect for human dignity for all classes of our society.”
    Admiral H.G. Rickover, Father of the US Nuclear Navy
    “Thoughts on Man’s Purpose in Life”. Second Annual Morgenthau Memorial Lecture, Carnegie Council for Ethics in International Affairs, 1982.

  5. Posing with a dead Teen enemy is a complete lack of empathy. Shoot or be shot i get, but respect the fact that you took a young childs life.. it’s not a trophy

    1. @Robert Allen What an atrocious indictment. For his fellow Seals to do such a thing means he was effectively a serial killer with our flag on his sleeve. Sickening

    2. These three acts . . . his seperating immigrant children from their parents and locking them in cages . . . his abandonment of our Kurdish allies fighting ISIS in Syria and . . . his interference in the administration of military justice to Gallagher . . . has shown the vast majority of Americans serving the nation Donald Trump’s true colors . . . a dishonorable shade of yellow.

      He has forever alienated the millions of men & women that voluntarily and selflessly serve the national intetests of the United States of America . . . be they diplomatic, military, or federal agents of any types (FBI, Border Control, US Marshalls, Secret Service, etc.).

      They are not with him . . . and will only tolerate him during their 8-hour shifts . . . up until 12 noon on January 20, 2021.

    3. @Hadzra Hatta At Sand Creek massacre…the US cavalry shot Indian children in the back with machine guns. One of the commanders of the massacre became a ‘hero’ and was granted the position of Governor of Colorado. He was known to bring the severed ear of a Indian child out of his pocket and show it to anyone curious….he was proud. he was and is the GOP.

    1. This is correct! There’s a whole Russian operation happening right now to destabilize western democrazies and instituations. Trump is part of that operation.

    1. I agree. While it’s acceptable to be a draft dodger or service avoider and then become POTUS, normally those persons didn’t meddle at this level.
      Don’t get me started on his betrayal of our ally the Kurds.
