    1. @brady chick God forbid you get what you want. That constitution you want to replace is the only reason you can say the brainless crap you do without getting tossed into a cell.

    2. @brady chick Hahahahaha, hashtags as a response instead of sentences. Nutcase confirmed. I hope you get the help and spiritual healing that you desperately need.

    3. @Agent Jack Stone I am not going waste a prayer on you Moron or lying Moron 45.See you at the ballot box in November.✌

    4. @brady chick I didn’t ask for your prayers, hahahaha. And you talking about voting cracks me up since it’s another right afforded to you by the constitution you so desperately want to replace. 🤣 Hysterical

  1. Why then trump is so scared of Bolton book 🤔 dumb trump don’t worry your fallowed believe whatever irrational lies you say .

    1. I think its more like the democrates, most of the news and the globalist that are scared… Since they all Lies about trump….. And don’t worry, nobody believe John Bolton anyways. He is psychopath war lover… He should be in jail.

    2. Because a book can be fact or fiction if Bolton has proof of wrong doing by the POTUS then let’s put him under oath and get the truth not a book that he can use to affect the election the swamp has drummed up nothing burgers since before Trump was elected Russia Ukraine now China it’s actually getting sad the depths the left will sink to

    3. Bolton just confirmed what we already know 45 is a liar and he has no shame in asking a Foreign Government for help.#KickUnfitTrump Out2020 🌊🌊🌊

  2. He ask China to investigate the Bidens at the press briefing, now denies. How much more lies you American gonna swallow.

    1. We’re kicking#UnfitTrump Out2020.We didn’t see Putin hiding in the bushes and Wikileaks chimed in too.🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊

  3. Who is the liar? On one hand, we have John Bolton who is generally known a straight shooter and on the other, we have #BunkerBoy who has lied about 18,000 times since coming to office. #DotardTrump lies.

    1. @Patriot Spring A patriot wouldn’t support an army that tried to topple the US government and put its losing soldiers on pedestals. You are no patriot.

    2. @Robert Evans I don’t support them. Those soldiers on pedestals aren’t mean to honor them, but to remember history and what our nation endured during those times.

    3. @Patriot Spring Did the US of A endure WWII? Should there be statues of Hitler? I know that many Trump voters are Nazis so . . .

    4. @Robert Evans Hitler committed genocide and wasn’t an American citizen. Southern generals were American citizens, regardless of whether they were on the wrong side of history. Why is it impossible for you to disagree without the ridiculously puerile insults? Your hate and disdain for your fellow American citizens is not going to persuade anyone to see your side.

      I had a very polite and substantive debate with a BLM member today. We each learned something from each other without resorting to insults…that’s how two sides can come together. Your way will do nothing but result in civil war.

  4. Everybody lies but trump. It’s an amazing coincidence that everyone that trump aligns himself with turn out to be liars. Every single one of them. He has such bad luck that way. What are the chances. Sad

  5. So we now know from Bolton’s book that Trump actually thought that Finland was part of Russia.😂  I guess that explains his betrayal of America in Helsinki Finland. He actually thought he was safe on Russian soil.

    I can only imagine how hard it must be for Trump sycophants still trying to defend Trump. It must be like trying to swallow a pinecone, or like trying to eat a live wolverine.😂

    It sounds ruff, and highly problematic.😆

    1. Marchant2 when I was young I used to judge the merit of a person on what he said now I judge a man on what he does tariffs on the CCP lowest Unemployment in history actually helping intercity youth trying to stop the flood of illegal immigrants from over running our boarders I will be voting for Trump in November not because of what he has said but for what he has done!

    2. @Kurtis Johnson illegal immigration was much lower under Obama and went up under trump. The worst unemployment since the 1940’s under trump followed by a decline in unemployment that started under Obama, who actually created more jobs than trump and saw much bigger declines in unemployment. Tarriffs did more for China than us, and it bankrupted many farmers who had owned farms for generations. But, okay, you vote for trump because we know you would choose any devil over a Democrat anyways.

    3. Marchant2 your facts are flawed on everything other than the farmers they have been hurt but it wasn’t the tariffs big agricultural has been beating up the farmers for years and as far as the unemployment are you serious record lows for blacks Hispanics Asians money flowing into infrastructure Bush destroyed the economy Obama leveled it from a free fall but Trump put hundreds of thousands back to work

    4. @Kurtis Johnson No, yours are. Trump is a POS. It’s unfortunate for you that that is unclear because to the rest of the planet, its clearer than the sun.

  6. The one person to call someone a liar, should never the one with over 18.000 proven lies.

  7. Trump: “I do solemnly swear, that I will faithfully desecrate the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, pervert, negate, and offend the Constitution of the United States. So help me Putin…or Jyna….if you’re listening.”

    1. His escape clause was “to the best of my ability”. He’s an amoral liar, so oaths are meaningless. Just ask his wives (aka the gold digging bimbo du jour aka the woman that he’ll be cheating on next).

  8. The only liar is Trump, apparently its one thing he doesn’t screw up at is being a liar.

  9. Classified information cannot be lies. Lies cannot be classified. Trump can’t claim the book is classified and then say Bolton is lying.

    1. @dozzer009 No, not an excellent point. Nobody said ALL the information in the book is classified. Bolton is clearly lying.

    2. @Thomas Koiro But it’s not…you’re assuming every word in the book is classified. I bet the vast majority of the book is not classified information.

    3. @Patriot Spring Then let’s read the vast majority part out loud so the Chinese and the Russians and the Saudis and the Turks can all hear it. They are in the book you know.

  10. DT: ‘John is a liar’. . The over 16,000 lies I’ve told since President, is also a lie, believe me.

  11. Just when you thought Trump couldn’t be any more crooked or dumb you learn he’s 10 times worse.

    1. Hard to make case that Boltons book is full of classified info , if Donny the Bunker baby same time claim its all lies … lies cant be classified .

    2. @Pete Lind
      True. The best thing Trump could claim is defamation of character. He never denies what he is accused of though.
