  1. America is

    23 in education.
    25 in democracy index.
    34 in raising family index.
    37 in healthcare.
    No high-speed train.
    Highest number of homeless people.
    Highest number of incarcerated people.
    78% of people live paycheck to paycheck.

    Stock market is not economy of Americans! Where 90% of money belongs to top 10% of the population, it’s wallet for the rich.

    Let’s talk like adults, instead of name calling.

    I have left the proof on my playlist, if you would like to check!

    Let’s make our country better together. . . ….

    1. Agreed! Insurrection, Violence and Rioting must be handled EQUALLY
      Comments made by Kamala Harris, Nancy Pilosi, Maxine Waters and AOC *actually* incited violence! Hold them accountable as well.
      As Democratic “leaders” like Governor Gavin Newsom (D-CA), Governor Andrew Cuomo (D-NY), Mayor Bill de Blasio (D-NY), Mayor Jacob Frey (D-MN), Mayor Muriel Bowser (D-D.C), Governor Tom Wolf (D-PA) and others refuse to use their authority to squash the violent protests, and the liberal media have somehow managed to shift the blame while American cities burned down. There *must* be accountability for these actions.
      NO DOUBLE STANDARDS!!! They ALL must RESIGN IMMEDIATELY

    2. Agreed. All those who incited, funded & promoted those “peaceful” protests should be removed & tried to the fullest extent of the law.

  2. Dec 7th, 1941 Japan attacks Pearl Harbor. Imagine if Japan then made overtures to the USA to work together in peace and unity! Nah? Didn’t think so. you Americans are a strange bunch…

    1. As a Native American, I can say these Americans are your descendants. Lol

      We would’ve burned their villages to the ground and fought to the last man. 🤷🏻‍♂️

    2. I wonder if you’re capable of spotting the myriad basic logical fallacies you committed here in your objectively stupid comment.

    1. That’s weird, when I go to sleep at night, in the morning I wake up free. Maybe cuz I live in America.✌❤

  3. You’ve got 12.6 million people unemployed, and here you are trying to get a person that will be out in a few days impeached. I can’t even comprehend the stupidity we have in our government. It’s mind bending

    1. If you don’t take action now it sets a precedent and then the next wannabe dictator that comes through will know exactly how to succeed in destroying America.

    2. Bruh its because trump has no mind he might do something more dangerous it’s not stupid you just have no brain

    3. @Skankhunt36 You didn’t even come up with this “thought” on your own, you had that told to you, too.

      BTW, stupid; Doctators don’t cut taxes and regulations and don’t decentralize government.

      For a second, I couldn’t believe I had to tell you that. But if I didn’t, then who was gonna come along and tell you how to think?

      Try, just try, to have ONE original thought in your life, ok, stupid?

  4. Himes, along with the other conspirators, should be arrested for participating in acts of treason against the United States. Do they think 75 million people are going to remain silent. Extremely foolish to think that.

  5. THE DEEP STATE ARE PLANNING ANOTHER FALSE FLAG TO BLAME ON PATRIOTS. THATS WHY THE CENSORSHIP & NEWSSPIN — DON’T BELIEVE IT!!!

  6. His speech did not incite violence. Global elite/ dems must get rid of him before he exposes their organized crime and crimes against humanity. They continue to try and divide the country to keep their own crimes covered up.

  7. “The prerogative of a pardon in these cases was too big a trust. The president himself may be guilty. The traitors may be his own instruments.” James Madison on pardoning acts of treason.

  8. And here we see some more liers .all these clowns .need to find a new toy box to play in cuz your all done .
