Sen. Richard Blumenthal: Trump's Revenge Is A Crisis | The Last Word | MSNBC
The Republicans are too weak to stand up to trump
Coma White dummy
We will vote out who you probably want out. You make sure things are fair on nominees and don’t discriminate against Bernie.
Stupid comment.
Not everyone wants Bernie.
It is this narrow minded thinking in which people refused to vote for Hilary that gave us this mess.
Bernie is still a Senator at the end of the day
He can still push forward his policies
THE WORLD IS IN DANGER HES GOT THE CODE.
OOH MY GOD.
I’m worried to see what Trump will do if he loses in 2020. He’s tweeted and or stated in interviews 27 times this month, that no matter the results in 2020, he’s not leaving the White House. Trump has the ‘If I can’t have it, no one can’ type of attitude. I’m scared he’d rather burn America to ash then allow someone else to be POTUS.
@max vauderk Trump is a commie you moron. He’s beholden to Putin. Where have you been the past 3 years?
@max vauderk
Either one is fine with me
@Jeremy Backup
Oh, he’ll leave. Because the new president can order Sargent at arms to have him arrested. My guess is, FBI will drag him out, the second Barr’s power becomes null and void.
Trump needs to be removed now
They have been trying to remove him for three years. And now their running out of lies to tell on him.
@Gary Vance Trump’s a swine repent vote for Bernie
Trump is just for old rich white men.
Yup. Right now.
The entire presidency has been a crisis from the day it started. It was born out of Russian interference and campaign finance fraud and it has just gone downhill from there.
@max vauderk German much
AThagoras gullible fool lol left wing moron
Lock them all up.
yep Nadler,Schiff,Waters,Clinton and Opussy.
Barr has become Trumps personal Terrorist against the American people , it’s out right Sedition and Treason against American Justice.
@Dave Schultz It except trump hes the one started the rumor about Obama being from Africa
Stone should get what the Judge gives him. That’s what Judges do.
It should not be Trump’s decision.
And Barr should not be intervening in Trump’s behalf.
I wonder, how many other cases has Barr got involved in to change the sentence recommendation?
Opposed to the unfounded impeachment?
Just call him a criminal
REPUBLICANS have created a MONSTER in the Oval office.
No he was a monster even before that.
@Dave Waldon do u not see the DIVISIVENESS along party lines encouraged by the IMPEACHED trump ? Maintaining DEMOCRACY shouldn’t be a DEMOCRAT vs REPUBLICAN thing but a AMERICAN thing. & last I checked it isn’t DEMOCRATS in cahoots with putin.
@Dave Schultz Russian plant and bot, troll, Dave Schultz a.k.a. Andy Garcia. Crawl back into your coffin schultzy/garcy.
Who would’ve ever thought that we would have the biggest crybaby for a president.
@Annnora C I will give you one, Obama is the best speaking president of all time, that’s it period. Trump is one of the worst speaking presidents of all time.
Welcome to the 3rd world!
Hatem Tarifi Living the life 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Many asked after the anonymous op Ed how Trump would be without strings.. This is it.. Facism 101
@Mark bodman We get it. Trump supporters think lying is cool. Murica. It okay if you don’t understand how government works. Donnie John doesn’t either.
We can’t control our own president. we have officially became a threat to the rest of the world.
Thank you republicans but mostly THANK YOU HONORABLE JUSTICE ROBERTS .
@dan112020 Go somewhere else, i dont get intimidated by you democrats screaming Russia Russia Russia all the time. Go run Putins scare campaign somewhere else, that loser needs democrats like you prompting him up. Its pathetic. 👏🤣
@MrClaushk That’s why you need Bernie to win. A new face of America needed.
So Stone should get 9 years for non violent infraction. Murders and child molesters get less time.
Progressive mucks crying for prison reform. Obviously unless its a Trump supporter.
Hypocrites everyone of you.
Soros funded district attorneys need to be replaced.
Trump would love a world where everyone against him is put away!
He’s going to work on it
Taralya
Trump is in the process of creating this world.
In political terms it’s called fascism. In psychiatry, it’s called sociopathy.
Yet all we hear from the pathetic looser progressive leftist is impeach Trump, impeach Pence, impeach and disbarr Barr and Kavanaugh and and and…..
So would i,Your against Trump bang goes the door as you weep for the people you miss,You should have not mocked the president.
Trump is a psychopath who causes chaos and havoc. He isn’t smart, just impulsive. He bullies, blames, gaslights and threatens to divert attention from his own dysfunction and “sick soul “. Educate yourselves on psychopaths. Google the PCL-R by Dr. Robert Hare.
Trump is less of the problem, in reality its the Republicans who allow and support this. They sold out America and its constitution, for nothing other than tax cuts for their donors. When you allow someone to be a dictator its not good, you won’t always get a dictator who’s on your side. The corruption of America is done and the saddest thing was how quick and easy it was.
Dave, if killing our democracy was this easy maybe it wasn`t that great to begin with.
Out of control toddler gets to decide what happens in the house, while the parents look away. What could go wrong?
MVVpro You could have a meltdown
Basically everything. Going to be fun watching actually.
Let’s see what happens…I happen to be pretty well placed I think in terms of location, security, supplies, power, health and self defence….so I reckon I can ride out any disturbances.
I will do what I can to lawfully eliminate the craven, treasonous Republican party form every elected position…and continue to comment..but things are beginning to gather momentum here, and could get nasty, quick.
Sadly I think most folk don’t follow the news and realise the direction the Administration has taken, or how quickly this could provoke a real crisis.
I can only hope those cowardly senators eventually see fit and call the PoS out for what he is…a PoS.
What a lovely Christian man child. Revenge, retribution, lies, humility (not), criminality. Yeah, I think thats what the bible teaches.
It took a few years to destroy the democracy in Russia, less in Turkey. How long will it take in the US?
Anatoli Titarev Troll ☝️☝️☝️☝️
One more year but if the despot is re-elected the prisons will be full of political and journalistic opponents. Like Dachau in the late 1930’s.
@Marshall Bowen I’m afraid that you are correct.
Where is Lee Harvey Oswald when you need him
Let me take a wild guess…Errrrrrr ,DEAD?
@Mark bodman He’s endangered our country, potentially the world … the scope matters.
Ikr?!
hes out there, but trump never excersises or goes anywhere so no one can take a shot at him
