Schumer Open To Criminal Charges For Trump, Acolytes In Capitol Riot | Rachel Maddow | MSNBC
Criminal charges all around!
HUNTER JOE OBAMA HILLARY 🙄
@Giretto Outlaw turn yourself in
Lock them up!
All those republicans in congress still screaming the election was “stolen,” but notice how none of them are willing to put their name on a bill to officially look into it. 😂🤣
🧐: Yep, that’s a fact. 👍🏾
It was stolen !
We will jot stop telling the truth no matter if it hurts your fragile self’s
Only because they know that there was no fraud in the election only fraud was Trump cause he knew he had lost the election still trying to hide in the Oval Office. We voted Trump out for a reason and we won
Man, this impeachment is going to take days.
Schumer needs to be impeached
@The Truth Is Out 777 get to work then.
It’ll be over a week after the Senate trial begins.
Today, January 6 was a successful practice run for the future RNC autocracy and you’ve already lost our precious Democracy. Your smugness is nauseating. Convict decisively and we have a chance. You’re lounging around, spit balling great ideas like you’ve already won. Trump taints are swapping Covid-19 and weapons, recruiting an army
I find it interesting that Schumer would like to hear what lawyers might opine on Trump’s insurrection and sedition as to whether it is a crime, or not – but, Republicans insist that abortion is murder.
Chuck Schumer is a Communist Jew.
@evil khor I don’t think you know what a “Communist” is.
What I want to know is why Trump is not in custody at this very moment and denied bail as a flight risk?
Hahahaha 🤣😂
Is it really f*cking necessary to break up the 6-7 minutes of this interview your posting into 8 or more sub 60 second clips? like wtf is the point? to waste our time, I spent as much time navigating back and forth to watch each question as I did actually watching.
Does every 2-3 sentence exchange really need it’s own video? it’s so obnoxious. just post a few excerpts or heaven forbid a single 5 minute excerpt we’d all watch it
They are chasing views.
Couldn’t you just invest in cable and watch the whole thing straight through?
@Constituent A No MSNBC in my country…
Would be really cool if you just uploaded the whole interview as one video
They tryna milk it as hard as they can👎🏼
You mean you don’t like a dozen 2 minute clips?!
Are you over burdened little one? All that clicking getting you down? lmao. American has the largest drama queen population in the world.
Agreed
@Darrell Hamilton shut up
brilliantly said, ty majority leader schumer and dr maddow, exactly!
It would take a very persuasive argument to convince me that Trump was not criminal in his January 6h actions and inactions.
“Salty Cracker” channel.
@Space Ship You do realise he was the leading republican in history for votes under latino and blacks….. That’s not just fox news saying that either.
I’m pro Trump, what do you mean?
I didn’t say he wasn’t…
Oh OK and you are
Pass the stimulus forget the bs
It is perfectly possible to do two, or even more, things.
For many people, that’s not news.
Future is the past that’s not dealt with.
… of course it crossed the criminal line – it was so far over the criminal line – why isn’t he in prison now ???
@msnbc, I appreciate you posting the interview on youtube. I join my fellow commentators in asking for you to post the interview in full, in addition to these clips, for those of us who would prefer the long form.
Go to their website.
I vote democrat because it is the only law and order party left 👍🏻
Democrats please take the vaccine ! 😁😄
Keep dreaming!
Why tf is Schumer still waiting for action on this? He’s the maj leader ff sake. Has there ever been a more spineless maj leader in the senate?
If you think Schumer is going to hold his fellow political class members accountable, you’re crazy.
