  1. Trump’s like that tenant that trashes their apartment before they are evicted. Sadly, he’ll make sure we all lose.

    1. Trump used to bang on about how Obama had the whole place bugged. When someone like him makes bizarre accusations, I recommend watching his intentions imstead of wasting time and energy trying to show Obama did no such thing.

    2. You know that letter outgoing presidents leave for their successors? Trump will just crap in an envelope and leave it on the Oval Office desk.

    3. Kenny Thomas – It will take a lot of Lysol and soap to get rid of all if the COVID and orange makeup stains on the furniture.

    1. @Vihari —SURELY you jest. the dems justify the election fraud, because hilllllary ( THE SORRIEST CANDIDATE) to date, got sent home. @ Jack clark– talk to Nancy, and hillllary about alcohol, @Robert—ask Joe about Robert Byrd and the 3k’s “everything a LIBERAL is accusing anyone of , is the definition of that liberal”

    1. @K. McKee No matter who he replaces atop the DoD, the guys with the actual guns will not obey an “unlawful order.” And his “Proud Boys” don’t have nearly as good the hardware as our troops have. Once Biden is sworn in, Trump’s no longer “Commander-in-Chief;” he’s a squatter and trespasser of the White House. He will be removed; one way or another.

    1. It’s on hold for Rudy’s investigation in to Hunter’s (suddenly missing from ALL narratives) laptop…LOLOL!! MAGA Tears taste SO GOOD!

      Poor Morons.

      Can you imagine losing your Pap-Pap and Maw-Maw to COVID because Donald “The Grifter” Trump told you to? Then watching him lose the election and fail you!?!?… *WOW* !

      If these people ever realize how hard they’ve been _Conned by The Don_ they are going to spontaneously combust..LOL!

  2. Like rats on a sinking ship will do anything to stay afloat and out of jail .

    “The only thing necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing.” – Edmund Burke

    1. From the UK 🇬🇧

      Am sorry mate but you are doing a disservice to rats.
      Rats will jump ship when it is sinking but they don’t do anything to actually sink it!!! 😜😁
      Stay safe 🙏🙏

  3. The Trump cult is pretty much the only portion of humanity upset by his defeat. The planet as a whole is rejoicing.

    1. @M G Interesting how unconcerned djtRUMP’s worshipers are about fascism — but they’re soooooo terribly afraid of “socialism” they think the “dems” are about!

  4. PETULANT?????? CALL 911 AMBULANCE AND BRING HIM TO A PADDED CELL!!!!
    Barr must be DISBARRED…..he’s supposed to REPRESENT THE PEOPLE NOT TRUMP!!!

    1. WAKE UP ugh! Trump is putting his unqualified sychophants, like Nunes who will do anything he wants, into high pentagon positions ffs! That is EXACTLY how you prepare a coup ugh 🙄
      GOP can stop this but only if america stops acting like apathetic boiling frogs & pressures relentlessly like never before!
      DO NOT WAIT UNTIL IT’S TOO LATE UGH

    2. @Anne Mahoney yes so there has to be a way to let Trump know he will he letting go…silence is like complacency…

    3. But then Trump would be like, “No you can’t quit” so the person says “I fire myself then” to which he shout, “No firing yourself! I quit you!” because he is a toddler like that.

    4. Barr has almost, not quite, but almost as much to lose when Trump is ousted. He, at the very least, most likely won’t be getting any more prominent positions. All those lawyers that quit and wrote letters against him will help see to that. With that said, his interference and going outside of his duties could possibly have him under review to lose his license and/or have legal proceedings that might have him jailed 😎

    1. No, he is a career military and civil servant… We would rather suffer, be broke, go to jail before we allow our integrity to be put into question…

    2. @PawetFashions Barr let his integrity be questioned when he helped cover up Iran Contra. He is Trump’s Roy Cohn.

    1. trump WANTS people to be scared….don’t go along with his attention-seeking bottomless pit of narcissism routine. Step away and realize we are the adults….find a way to excuse Barr as head of DOJ, and recall McConnel

    2. TIME TO BE TERRIFIED IS HERE! Trump is putting his unqualified sychophants, like Nunes who will do anything he wants, into high pentagon positions ffs! That is EXACTLY how you prepare a coup ugh 🙄
      GOP can stop this but only if america stops acting like apathetic boiling frogs & pressures relentlessly like never before!
      DO NOT WAIT UNTIL IT’S TOO LATE UGH

    3. @MaryLou Sherman

  5. I like the way he says “with a a normal President” multiple times in the context of what he is speaking on.

    1. @jeb1273
      All it takes is getting blue states run by red people to call mail in votes fraudulent
      He’d then be “legitimate” POTUS on January 21st, and yes, he’d be commander in chief for a 2nd term

    2. And remember, don’t be scared- even though 70M voted for Trump, I doubt half of them would answer some call to arms.
      However we have 75M+ (and counting) voters who will answer a call for peaceful demonstration, shutdown of civil life, if a coup is attempted.
      This could be a direct attack on our democratic process.

    3. @jeb1273 that’s why Trump is firing people at the Pentagon, so he could put one of his minions in charge of the military!

    1. @David Drake Barr has used the supposedly independent justice Dept as Trumps personal business. It’s illegal. Supposed to be independent. He has committed felony and will be charged. Wait and see. He’s worse than trump. An enabler. No mercy

  6. These people are making fools of themselves and doing nothing but ruining their future careers by standing behind Trump during all of this.

    1. Sara Turner and with each passing day trump is guaranteeing to completely tarnish his legacy in history. He’ll be studied in the future as “the American Hitler” who tried to destroy democracy

  7. When McCain lost to Obama did he act like Trump? When Hilary lost to Trump did she act like Trump? Trump is a virus to our democracy!! No election is perfect.

    1. It’s not completely the same but there is a good YT video showing how gracious President-elect Joe Biden and his wife Jill were to the then Vice President-elect Mike Pence and his wife. They had hosted the Pences to see the house that the Penses would occupy for the coming four years. Have you heard anything about Mike Pence and his wife doing the same for Vice President-elect Kamala Harris and her husband? No, because as always, Pence is cowing down to the Orange Buffoon. Horrible, horrible role model for our young people.

  8. Trump looks like he’s attempting a coup as republicans look on and encourage it with all their cowardly enabling!
