Sen. Sanders: President's Call 'Impeachable, A Criminal Offense' | Andrea Mitchell | MSNBC
Yes it is unbelievable, and yet his base will stand by him.
@Lady A You wouldn’t know a lie if it slapped you in the weave.
@Robert Douglas – What I think would make a CRAZY story is if he attempted to flee the country, and in the process of trying to escape, accidentally slipped on a shallow ramp, took a tumble and then snapped his own neck in the process. May-be a bit too predictable to turn into a good novel tho, since so many might suspect the ending, lol!
@Derrick Landers Oh wow, weave? You’re hilariously pathetic.
C’mon and bring more of that good ole boy spirit…I see you!
😂🤦🏾♀️😂🤦🏾♀️😂🤦🏾♀️😂
@Lady A Boy is a white racist word…or don’t you watch “Good Times”?
@Derrick Landers You would know!🤷🏾♀️😂😂😂
Release every prisoner convicted of Cannabis related crimes and fill the cells with fascists and GOP seditionists.
@cici true
Can I like this comment twice?!
Excellent suggestion. I indulge a little bit. I’ve never seen anybody that smokes a doobie(I’m old) or two commit crimes, especially violent crimes. They are only guilty of eating too much junk when the munchies hit.
Thank you for bringing this to the format millions of U.S.citizens agree!

Ask Susan Collins if Trump’s learned his lesson yet 🙄
Seriously… F her. I don’t get how Maine re-elected that clown.
I’m sure Collins finds it “concerning”
Nope he’s still a creep.
Brilliant comment !! Now have a final laugh about Trump before he leaves the WH. Watch https://youtu.be/vSN6vQlSzsM. The funniest AntiTrump Sketch ever.
susan collins is the obsequious spineless edith bunker to trump’s archie
i think being an edith bunker was her natural calling…
I can’t believe how scared everyone is to prosecute trump for this crime.
@Eviel Kanievel , I apologize, for insinuating that you’re stupid, I don’t know about the evil part, again, I try to believe that people that think and say the things that you do, are expressing how well the brainwashing they have perpetrated on you, has taken hold. Anyways, did you get a chance to watch that 9 minute video, here is the link once again if for some reason you did not see ithttps://youtu.be/EM8pC1pAizc
@SCOTUS says BidenWon Every crime? That is a never ending list.
Hopefully they can make something stick.
It made me sick. During Middle and High school (1970-1980s) saw him get away with one thing after
another.
I dont believe he won 2016 election and I feel he had help with 2020 election even though he underestimated how well Biden would do. This may be the reason Trump is so mad and unwilling to face the facts.
He really needs to disappear..
@solarman tint I don’t believe in any political party . To me they are all the same waste. Nobody has a hold of me because blue or red is all the same political drama and circus that only sees to enrich their pockets. tRump is a clown and I am just glad he is leaving. And no I don’t click on any links to what ever video you believe in.
All that’s needed is JUST ONE PERSON TO MAKE A STAND and the rest will willingly follow. Getting started is the hardest part.
@David Mann I hear you. If they go after Trump, his cult is going to ask thousands of questions that will lead to more questions. When It comes to Trump and protecting our democracy, we have to cover all bases.
I know how they are. Trumpmonsters will say, “How can you charge Trump for this, but not that?” “What about so-and-so and their email/Laptop/birth certificate?”
We need overwhelming legitimate evidence. They can lock Trump up for whatever they do first, and then investigate Trump’s other crimes with or without his cooperation.
We cannot afford to be lazy, nice or quick about this. Democracy is on the line big time. Thete is a need to punish whose for threaten it and deter would be enemies of Democracy. When you lose Democracy, it takes a war to get it back.
Hey Joe, don’t even think about “moving on for the good of the country”. Indictments NOW. NO PARDONS. NO DELAYS. NO DEALS.
Just choose a great AG and let him/ her take care of it. Not prosecuting Trump jeans that a president can get away with anything. I would mean that there are people above the law. NOT GOOD.
Yoh wow
https://youtu.be/zFJ2AN_CZH8
oh yes
Well the, prosecute the SOB. why is everybody just crying impeachable, impeachable, Impeach the SOB right out of office now.
oh wow
https://youtu.be/zFJ2AN_CZH8
oh yes
@G Hill IKR 🤣
Exactly! like what are they waiting for for Pete’s sake?
@JB DelGadillo…with only 15 day’s left they think they don’t have time to begin an Impeachment.
All impeachment would do is kick him out of office (then he would have to be charged with all of the other things). He’s going to leave in a couple of weeks anyway. Better to just wait till he’s out of office and THEN start tagging him with EVERYTHING.
The USA: “The Greatest Democracy on Earth”
Hahhahaha what a joke. Banana Republic.
What do you expect? An amateur president, amateur cabinet.
Regrettably true Steven Lennie.
The House _needs_ to pass articles of impeachment over this. Not to actually remove him from office – we all know the Senate wouldn’t convict, and he’ll be leaving office soon anyway – but to establish a precedent that this kind of behaviour from an elected official is impeachable.
AMERICA should get ARMY and arrest all the GANG GOP. TERRORIST,CRIMINALS.Entire world condemn this Old GANGSTER boss with a. Sick child mind .
Democrats are being way too weak with this mob It is Treason. A coup attempt. Keep calling it out, and take action.
Blm terrorists and their associates. should be rounded up
@Luis Rosales Sounds like YOU should be rounded up!
Toh wow
https://youtu.be/zFJ2AN_CZH8
oh yes
@MJS you stated democrats need to do something. They did. They impeached him. Republicans need to do something should have been your statement.
how can u impeach the crook when the senate are as bad as him if not worse….
Its incredible, all his treacherous deeds and still no arrest for him or his allies… US democracy is a joke
Not even going to stick around to figure out how this ends?
@John Doe President Trump sacrificed his health to COVID-19 and Jesus sacrificed his life to the cross, three days later, Trump recovered and Jesus rises, what a resurrection! without Trump in office, guess we are officially a communist country now. I will never vote again. The fraud states of America. In Trump we trust, in Trump we worship, in Trump we united.
@Ngoc Nguyen lolwut. Go worship your golden calf.
@Ngoc Nguyen Are you crying to me because you think I’m a trump supporter? Everything is dead because of Trump.
It’s cause America is actually an oligarchy! The rich run the country even if it appears the people vote for their politicians!
Bernie Sanders the MAN THAT WOULD BE THE BEST PRESIDENT WE’VE EVER HAD!!!
oh wow
https://youtu.be/zFJ2AN_CZH8
oh yes
I feel we messed up not having Gore as president.
@Mot Doai I noticed the Chinese/Russian Bots all forgot to change their names xD
@Michael Butcher LOL Biden a liberal leftest ? You really have no clue do you ? If anything Biden is A republican-lite centrist.
I’m having a difficult time believing that you even know what the overton window is & and exactly how far to the right it’s been moved.
@Michael Butcher Haha! Mad Rabbit is right about you. Did you get your Grade 10???
Immediate impeachment would forestall corrupt pardons and ongoing disruption.
Takes weeks to achieve and Republicans to support….. So it won’t happen. Lee Harvey knew the way.
Goh wow
https://youtu.be/zFJ2AN_CZH8
oh yes
Do something! Trump needs to be charged with sedition and treason and so do his co-conspirators. Don’t let them get away with it.
They have crossed the line ! If not held accountable , the system is destroyed ! Free for all ! I recomend the 4 horror,s for the frozen pig face liar ! In central park ! Tickets starting at $ 10.000 . VIP front row seating at $ 500.000 ! Put towards a seperate stimulis package ! Compensation for trumps crimes against humanity ! Biggest, best crowd ! Like know one has seen before ! Lmao….
Why, if they did then the Trump team would have the opportunity to present their evidence in a forum the media cannot ignore. That evidence only has to be suppressed for only 16 more days, be patient.
@Overall Great Idea What evidence ? I keep asking for it but it never seems to verifiably manifest.
How come other presidents with less crimes were impeached or resigned. REPUBLICANS HAVE BECOME BIGGER ARE CROOKS.
Amen and Amen brother
When Bernie was running for president MSM didn’t give him the time of day. He’s a better person than I bc I wouldn’t give them the time now.
bernie is a good man, whether one voted for him or not.
You sound ridiculous
Cant change minds (republicans) that don’t want to change, GOP uses “””Fear based tactics) to scare their voters to death, I know, Unfortunately, i have family members who believe these crazy conspiracies……. They use Fear to get their vote & they get absolutely, nothing in return🤮👎🏻
@Michelle Toni…I am in exactly the same situation with a majority of my family member’s …VERY SAD — THEY ARE BRAINWASHED. THEY DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHAT A PATHETIC, LYING & HORRIFIC MAN TRUMP IS AND THAT HE HAS BEEN TRYING TO BECOME A DICTATOR. WE HAD TO STOP HIM AND WE DID. NOW LET’S BE SURE HE CANNOT BE RE-ELECTED IN 2024.
@Lynn Sheehan You can’t do anything, just talk about other stuff, with your family, not about politics… avoid any topic related to politics, the thing is, only one person can change a person… him or herself… its impossible to change another person, they must want to change… you can have the best arguments, it will lead to nothing, fanatics in this state are in denial… and the only way out of this is for themself to realize… its just about they don’t want to believe something, like Bidens win during the election, or they want to believe their is fraud etc.
I have family also that is off the deep end. It is a travesty, maybe for life? Are they capable of wanting to wake up? I have lost them to crazy conspiracies, cultism, fear, hate…..they are gone. I love them, i call to hear if they are okay during this pandemic but they are in a black hole, so much disconnect ? Bless them
The plan was for Trump to be President for life, but he’s his own enemy who shot his own self in the foot.
Why are they impeaching him again if he’s leaving in days?
Yeah Trump shot himself in the foot, but luckily for him he missed the bone spurs. Hahah 😝😝😝
@Dave Templin …your comment.
@Mot Doai = cut & paste TROLL. 😴😴😴😴
Bernie should be locked up for fraud. the green new deal means building more TOXIC solar panels and cutting down the forest to burn for energy because trees are the largest BIO RENEWABLE energy source in the United States. how is using toxic chemicals to build more solar panels a green new deal ? how is it a green new deal to cut down even more forest for energy ? Bernie sanders is a fraud. thank you Michael Moore for exposing the green new fraud deal. he’s a true patriot for exposing the left.
toxic chemicals in solar panels include cadmium telluride, copper indium selenide, cadmium gallium (di)selenide, copper indium gallium (di)selenide, hexafluoroethane, lead, and polyvinyl fluoride. Silicon tetrachloride, a byproduct of producing crystalline silicon, is also highly toxic.
Biomass, a renewable energy source derived from organic matter such as wood, crop waste, or garbage, makes up 4.8 percent of total U.S. energy consumption and about 12 percent of all U.S. renewable energy. Wood is the largest biomass energy source. In the U.S., there are currently 227 biomass plants operating.
The most unbelievable thing is that he’s still able to get away with it.
He’s getting away with it because the US is infected with corrupt politicians. These politicians will do nothing because they feel they would act against one of their own. They’re scared they might be next.
Exactly.
Goh yes
https://youtu.be/eN2o_V4SrZI
Let’s hope only for now, he should be locked up!
And he will see NO jail time.
Sedition, Treason, Intimidation, called what you want, but this is an obvious criminal solicitation to commit election fraud!
Blm terrorists need to be rounded up and then the wumaos
Goh wow
https://youtu.be/zFJ2AN_CZH8
oh yes
Spot on. Well put.
But in their mind, he won, so it’s not a crime, it’s patriotism. That’s how far Trump supporters are gone.
@Luis Rosales you’re first name and last are Mexican, Trump hates Mexicans, what a white washed sell out, I bet you think Trump likes you, he will deport you and you’re family, sorry no tortilla😆😂😂😂😂😂
ok- so WHY ISN”T ANYONE DOING SOMETHING- call an emergency session of the congress and IMPEACH HIM AGAIN.
