Rep. McCarthy Appears To Walk Back Trump Criticism | Morning Joe | MSNBC

    1. Democrats heads would roll if the policy was really about Honesty

      They DONT want transparency.. they DONT want a free and fair election

      And you BETTER NOT question why

    1. So much mental illness trying to win a senseless argument mom loved you best get over it Cisco poncho got the horse oh Cisco oh poncho

    2. @Patrick Lefave your mom call you son because your bright or are you illuminating at night? You make a good case for legalized abortion. And the reason instructions are printed on shampoo. You set low expectations and fail to meet them. Instead of being an abstract of personal opinion, just live like the lie that personal needs are the indoctrination of truth. when Truth is inconvenient, and inclusive values based on personal prejudices unite your feelings, falsehoods are accepted when they give personal beliefs relevance, a majority is group ignorance

    3. @Patrick Lefave if winning an argument is your goal, than any views you agree with as objective reality only have to justify personal beliefs supported by mob rule. Sorry bro, I don’t do might makes right, or creating self fulfilling prophecies to give preconceived thoughts objective legitimacy supported by mass indoctrination created through ancient tribalism of fear, and not empathy for another person based on pre existing personal prejudices of convenience

    4. Basically I care as much about inwardness as it’s inclusive in truth. that isn’t an insult to intelligence wherever it exists and not where it is projected to appear and somehow disqualify opposing rational thoughts and empirical evidence

    1. @Deborah Thunder Hawk if trump invited Capitol Hill.. ALL DEMOCRATS who accepted BLM donations should be held accountable for FIXING CITIES AND THE BLOODSHED they brought

    2. You must hold trump responsible for the riots he started it then add mitch and his spineless boys to it and put them in jail if you dont they will do worst.

    3. @xDarkxArenx trUMP spoke for 70 minutes prior to the riot – inciting his followers to fight for him to remain president. Go to youtube and hear his complete speech. Don’t forget “stand up and stand by”. So are you saying that what tRUMP did does not matter to you. So are you saying that It is ok for trumpsters to attack the Capitol- forcing their way through doors and windows, try to overturn an election, threatened the Vice President, Congressman and Senators of the United States, assault the Capitol Police with American flags? Yes or No. Imagine if the White House was your personal residence. It would be ok for your enemy to tell people/neighbors to show up at your house to harass you, break your windows and doors, walk through your house without invitation, go through your desk, steal your laptop, climb on your roof. Better cities face up to their police inequities than 400, 000 Americans dead. If Osama bin Laden did what tRUMP – THE President would have called for a military strike – but we know trump will not call a strike on himself……. tRUMP is aTraitor.

    4. No the Landlord will not let anyone get. Away with destroying there Property and. The Landlord will sue u and have u arrested and. U will b punished to the fullest extent of the law and. May face addition pain and suffering.

    1. If trashing the Capitol and beating and killing cops means one is a “Patriot”, call old fashion but I’m happy being a plain old American.

    2. All republican gop traitors to America should get life in prison or lethal injection for killing the capital police and looting the capital on Jan 6

    3. @Bidenforthenext8years Pleasewearamask Bingo!!! The next Republican president will do everything that Trump did and more if this is not punished harshly. And the punishment should be meted out to the GOP senators and congressmen/women who signed onto the lawsuits to overturn free and fair elections. All 156 of them have to be investigated, charged and tried in a court of law for the crime of sedition and it’s resulting violence. And then sentenced to a long prison term in a Federal facility. No easy time for them. The evidence of their crimes is too great for me to consider even for 1 second that they might be innocent. Those men and women convicted themselves out of their own mouths and with their own signatures.

    1. Its not the dems it was was trumpee who did all this with his lies about the election and the riot at the capital hes a spineless coward who got his trolla to do his dirty work shameful

    2. @Gary Kubodera It was a couple of them and I praise those men that wouldn’t buy into Trumps lies and they obey the constitution

    3. If there had been one, I would recognize it. Outside yourselves, where millions live and breathe, you are perceived as rebellious for all this inane hyperbole, and it implies violent intent on your part, over a riot. There were lots of those over the summer, and I doubt you cared; u have found it all sickening, and I find your expression herein disgusting and pointlessly inflammatory; try looking up insurrection in a printed dictionary or history book, and cut the crap, as you may be saving lives in doing so

    1. @Trap Daddy let me guess. Its some video from some looney ben with a bunch of “illuminati” and “freemason” videos. 🙄

    2. @Trap Daddy Why the f**k didn’t the maga racists vote for him then, perhaps he never said it that’s why, link?

    1. @CouldBeYou Please refrain from insinuating that the “left” (whatever that may mean”, considering that the Democratic party has been essentially centrist or center-left leaning) is “making concessions”. Since the Dems want the impeachment process to reach its conclusion, you cannot accuse them of leniency. HOwever, there is due process to be considered. And I hope you would not want the Dems to resort to the same vile tactics, including murder, that too many Reps suported and incited. Like Mr. BIden said: democracry is fragile and depends on the citizen’s sense of responsibility. So please refrain from resorting to the same kind of inflammatory and destructive BS that the trumpists indulge in, with disastrous consequences. Thank you..

    2. @Lesley Edgley Yep! I forgot about that one! Same thing with that election! Graham switched from bawling his eyes out pleading for help for several days because he was being killed financially and then all of a sudden, he acts far too confident as if he was assured a win. Very similar to Porter/McConnell election. Both McConnell and Graham campaigned so lousy yet won by very slim margins.

    1. @Union Solidarity That’s ashame that the Republican Party chooses Party over the Country and. That is very dangerous for the Country and. We must stick together so that. We can continue to b a strong so Country. Other wise we r going to b just like the third World Countries.

    2. @Daft Sutra Design I believe XPOTUS will still be held accountable for stealing the election in 2016…lost the popular vote, and only got elected because of those “faithless electors”…the ones who voted against the will of their constituents.

    1. @Christi Hiatt really… Are you like 13 or what. I haven’t heard anyone say something so immature since middle school. Lmao!

    2. @Christi Hiatt Yes I suppose we could lose the right to free speech if they suddenly throw out the Bill of Rights!

    3. @lizzydolphin33 it won’t be sudden, but that’s ongoing, thanks for mentioning it. Per aps you should scrutinize the situation and save the flippant comments for someone who’s not an academic historian

    4. @lizzydolphin33 Laugh it up, but I haven’t heard anything like what you wrote since I last spike with idiots who thought they know everything, and then went out and tore down the property of others expecting I would find them enlightened in doing so; mockery and prevarication is all you know now, though perhaps this will change

  1. The GOP needs to cut bait. Stop trying to salvage a failed political ideology and defending our Nation by diving us and burning it down.

    1. I resisted Trump after hearing his words during the inauguration and before. I resisted his hatred and his lack of humanity. Lets discuss context and the differences.

  2. America has to make sure that Trump can never bring his cult back into politics for the sake of America

    1. Women stick together
      If we do not stand for the truth for our Children and their children .,who will.When the GOP.Stood behind these men and would tRump destroy America.

    2. U r right we have to work together to. Make sure this Tragedy does not happen again. It was a Insurrection was a assault on our Democracy and. People who assault our Democracy do not care. About America and Donald Trump will never respect Democracy. The American people have to make America a Better and Safer place to live and. We have to stand up to wannabe Dictator’s.

    3. @Connie sue adams Adams U r right and so far. More women than men has have stood. Up and told the bully Donald Trump to b quite and sit down.

    4. @Vanessa Flynn You should have lol earned better in school about what an insurrection, then you wouldn’t sound like such an id and ego driven dullard

    1. @Secret Oktober78 not true. If the elected Representatives of the people change the laws what is the problem? That is what happened. All these lies of fraud where not told in court because big perjury risk but told in the court of public opinion. Why? Do you not remember pence in 2016 to much fanfare heading a commission on voter fraud? The results? Reality is there is no truth you will agree too. Volunteer next election to work at a poll place or counting ballots. Your reality will change.

    2. @Secret Oktober78 Hollywood, News media and Democrats spent over 4 years doing absolutely nothing but brainwashing their followers with lies. Hard for Trump to get the courts to be fair when Hollywood TV producer Dan Abram’s Jewish father is a lawyer that advises the Supreme Court.

    1. @evil khor I m sorry you are brainwashed for some reason. I’m fine seeing through it all from both sides and taking away what is reasonable. Thanks.

    2. Ahhhh like the FBI lied 3 years 24 X 7 RussiaGate …even FBI admits Steele Dossier was designed to manipulate media ( that means Kool-Aid Crowd)

    3. @Jack Marsh I know …isn’t that great …I love watching bugs with their eyes closed hit a wind shield …Then they whine ….no body told me

    1. How many? You guys and your damnable hyperbole, hard to know what you mean, so most won’t care; at best you’re a windchime

    1. Trump WAS impeached, America wants him convicted. But a Senate trial can’t put him in jail or give him a fine or do anything meaningful. The real judges of the trial will be each of us, and we must render our judgment at the ballot box. Meanwhile actual legal complaints about Trump’s alleged crimes are being investigated and going through the courts, that’s where real penalties will be played out.

    2. @xDarkxArenx no evidence or witnesses were allowed by the Republicans. Look again, red. He was guilty. He is guilty. Sad.
