Steve Kornacki Breaks Down Possible Election Scenarios | Morning Joe | MSNBC
Remember, Trump clearly cares nothing about winning votes – because, he intends to steal the election. We MUST defend against THAT!
@T Shahbazi Not so fast! Sure, Trump appointed two – soon to be three – of those Justices to the court. But, those appointments are for a lifetime! Trump can’t fire them if he doesn’t like their ruling. And, those Justices have their own governmental power to consider. Right now, they’re a fully independent branch of our government and coequal with the other two branches. Allowing Trump to coerce a ruling out of them, or even give the appearance that they’re a political body, and not solely judicial, undermines their own independence and authority. So, they have no motivation to arbitrarily rule in Trump’s favor, and they do have motivation to just do their job.
Omg! WATCH this 😱😱😱😱😱😱 https://youtu.be/4l8ikTNjw9M
@Richard Owens in theory or may in old days what you’re saying is true. In reality the AG became trump’s defense attorney paid by the taxpayers money, senators became trump’s caddies and shoeshiner, justices became trump’s boys. I hate what I see but that is fact.
@Ed Lutz Excuse me? The business dealings to which you are referring took place in 2017 – before Biden was even running for President. He was a private citizen, entitled to pursue his own business interests, or discuss the business dealings of his son, Hunter. There haven’t even been any allegations of illegal activity or crimes being committed. And, China is not our enemy – they may be an economic competitor, but they are also an economic partner for literally tens or hundreds of thousands of US businesses. It’s not illegal to do business with China, even if you’re an ex-Vice President’s son.
So, what makes Biden worse? Please, explain it, if you think you can.
@T Shahbazi I can see the motivations of both the GOP and William Barr – clearly. What I don’t see is why the Supreme Court Justices would be motivated to be biased towards Trump apart from their own personal ideological biases about which we already know. We know which are conservative and which are liberal. That doesn’t mean that either are corrupt. At least, if they are, we don’t yet have the evidence of it. Their rulings are ostensibly based on the law which is in plain view for all to see and challenge, if necessary.
So, can you point to the motivations that lead you to believe Trump has stooges on the Supreme Court bench? Because, so far, Trump has LOST every time he has been in front of them – every last time.
If there was ever a reason to make this the last election to be decided by the electoral college….
one citizen, one vote.
Yes! But for now VOTE, VOTE, VOTE. Take your friends to vote 🗳️ Make it too real for him to steal. Don’t trust polls! VOTE BIDEN/HARRIS 🌊🌊🌊🌊💦🇺🇸⚕️💙
@Ashlynne Shain Yes!!!! Vote and take everyone you know to the polls. 🗳️. VOTE HARRIS /BIDEN 🌊🌊🌊🌊💦🇺🇸⚕️💙
@tom law and go where, smart guy? What country is eagerly accepting Americans right now?
The fact that each state sends two senators is enough to justify the “constitutional republic” requirement. The Presidency is all together different matter.
Also fact: if a Democratic President won 3 of the last 5 elections despite losing the popular vote, you can rest assured the GOP would dismantle the electoral college first chance they get
We don’t need another 4 years of this chaos. Our Vote matters. And our voices will be heard. We will take back the White House on January 20,2021.
Sounds like a threat from alien invaders from “Independance day”.
This the full statement from Hunter Bidens business partner Tony Bobulinski to the New York Post:
My name is Tony Bobulinski. The facts set forth below are true and accurate; they are not any form of domestic or foreign disinformation. Any suggestion to the contrary is false and offensive. I am the recipient of the email published seven days ago by the New York Post which showed a copy to Hunter Biden and Rob Walker. That email is genuine.
This afternoon I received a request from the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Government Affairs and the Senate Committee on Finance requesting all documents relating to my business affairs with the Biden family as well as various foreign entities and individuals. I have extensive relevant records and communications and I intend to produce those items to both Committees in the immediate future.
I am the grandson of a 37 year Army Intelligence officer, the son of a 20+ year career Naval Officer and the brother of a 28 year career Naval Flight Officer. I myself served our country for 4 years and left the Navy as LT Bobulinski. I held a high level security clearance and was an instructor and then CTO for Naval Nuclear Power Training Command. I take great pride in the time my family and I served this country. I am also not a political person. What few campaign contributions I have made in my life were to Democrats.
If the media and Big Tech companies had done their jobs over the past several weeks I would be irrelevant in this story. Given my long standing service and devotion to this great country, I could no longer allow my family’s name to be associated or tied to Russian disinformation or implied lies and false narratives dominating the media right now.
After leaving the military I became an institutional investor investing extensively around the world and on every continent. I have traveled to over 50 countries. I believe, hands down, we live in the greatest country in the world.
What I am outlining is fact. I know it is fact because I lived it. I am the CEO of Sinohawk Holdings which was a partnership between the Chinese operating through CEFC/Chairman Ye and the Biden family. I was brought into the company to be the CEO by James Gilliar and Hunter Biden. The reference to “the Big Guy” in the much publicized May 13, 2017 email is in fact a reference to Joe Biden. The other “JB” referenced in that email is Jim Biden, Joe’s brother.
Hunter Biden called his dad “the Big Guy” or “my Chairman,” and frequently referenced asking him for his sign-off or advice on various potential deals that we were discussing. I’ve seen Vice President Biden saying he never talked to Hunter about his business. I’ve seen firsthand that that’s not true, because it wasn’t just Hunter’s business, they said they were putting the Biden family name and its legacy on the line.
I realized the Chinese were not really focused on a healthy financial ROI. They were looking at this as a political or influence investment. Once I realized that Hunter wanted to use the company as his personal piggy bank by just taking money out of it as soon as it came from the Chinese, I took steps to prevent that from happening.
The Johnson Report connected some dots in a way that shocked me — it made me realize the Bidens had gone behind my back and gotten paid millions of dollars by the Chinese, even though they told me they they hadn’t and wouldn’t do that to their partners.
I would ask the Biden family to address the American people and outline the facts so I can go back to being irrelevant — and so I am not put in a position to have to answer those questions for them.
I don’t have a political ax to grind; I just saw behind the Biden curtain and I grew concerned with what I saw. The Biden family aggressively leveraged the Biden family name to make millions of dollars from foreign entities even though some were from communist controlled China.
God bless America.
@MVE The Wall Street Journal is on the story Tonto, soon your corrupt politician the Biden Clan will be under a Special Prosecutor regardless of your dumb vote. Thanks for your False Narrative!
Technically, 56% of America stated we are better off now than 4 years ago. So, you can say “we don’t need another 4 years of this,” but you actually do.
@Brian Nave please….that story was debunked when it came attached to Rudy Giuliani.
You don’t know a political hack job when you see one?
Well, you can’t spot a con man either….
Don’t believe any polls, just get out and vote!
@Franky B you just stay home.
If you think honest Joe Biden is a problem.
Trump has lied 22 thousand times and he is robbing you.
TRUMP IS A JERRY SPRINGER CLOWN SHOW. JUST LIKE THE THEIFING PUTIN.

@Chris Jones ha
You people are absolutely pathetic bottom line
Omg! WATCH 😱😱😱😱😱😱 https://youtu.be/4l8ikTNjw9M
Don does NOT have any more LIES to tell 🙂
Here come the trump shills, trying to make people SCARED of voting, whilst PRETENDING to be Dems! They’re DESPERATE! Biden 2020! VOTE! 🌊✌️
@freebirdpv WTF are you talking about? Biden is currently leading Trump by almost 90% in the Black vote. You people make up your own alternate reality don’t you. Christ!
@Simgor2 : Had farm work to do. You do know what a farm is, right ? Lose the cult crap ! What’s going to be on the minds of a lot that you don’t seem to want to acknowledge when they step into that voting booth ? The 2yr Russian collusion crap, the impeachment nonsense, the Kavanaugh fiasco, now Barrett. The one sided coverage of CNN & MSNBC. People’s Christian rights being protected. A friend of the NRA & 2nd amendment, NOT an enemy. Lower business taxes and less burdensome regulations. A stepped up effort in ILLEGAL immigration. A realization that the so called rich cannot pay for all the “free” stuff being promised. Then, the higher federal taxes will HAVE to be put on everyone. Also disguising universal background checks as ” common sense ” gun control knowing full well that is totally unenforceable without a national registration, which is the ultimate hidden goal. You can’t monitor private sales without one. AND, you bet your bottom dollar there would be a fee for each gun you have. That’s how dems work. Then there is Trump getting the blame for EVERYTHING, and dems can do no wrong. You don’t think people see that ? Now it’s just flat blatant. Where I’m at ? there are Trump flags and yard signs all over the place, so hold on to your hat ! My fear is when Trump wins ? The BLM riots will be on a whole different level.
@Lillian Outten you seem very intelligent.
@Truyardy Brainwash Alert Brainwash Alert: Not sure why you guys would Block Vote for the Demon Party when they take your vote for granted. What good does that do when they know you group think like aliens with one mastermind controlling your thoughts. How about critical thinking for a change? Trump Criminal Justice Reform, Biden the 1994 Crime Bill. How did that work out for you guys? Trump Funding for Historical Black Colleges for the next 10 years, Biden come back every year & beg for funding. Sound good so far? Demons incorporated Welfare offering more money for single mothers pretty much destroying your nuclear family. Now over 70% Black children born to single mothers. Prior generations in the 1900’s 80% Black families had both Mothers & Fathers! Now leading to more gangs, drug use, crime, jail time, poor education and still you love the Demons who led you down the road of destruction…#WalkAway
Omg! WATCH this 😱😱😱😱😱😱 https://youtu.be/4l8ikTNjw9M
What does it say about the US, that a criminal moron and national security threat could be reelected??
@Cill Triplett On the troll payroll, are you?
That 37% of the USA believe this is a White, Christian and European Country. And believe that their civilization is under attack and in a last ditch fight to keep it that way.
@Ken Durham You read that post differently than I did.
@Ken Durham No, but appears you are.
it means democracy doesn’t work when you have millions of uneducated and brainwashed people
Pennsylvania, whatever became of that ”nice clean coal” the fool promised you? How’s that going?
Oh, another 2 mines closed?
Better create new jobs in green energy- because that’s the (only possible) future 🦉🌿
@Elizabeth Cantarell Right he needs to find Hunter another job overseas so they can deliver more corrupt deals for the Biden Mafia! $83,000 monthly from a Ukrainian Gas Company Burisma in which he had no energy experience. How do you explain that Lizard??? Just a coincidence that Joe was the VP in charge of Ukraine & China policy…
@Toyokazusan Gonzales The Biden Clan is under investigation by the FBI for money laundering according to News sources. Sorry Tokyo Gonzo!
@JRG 770 Agreed, should be a priority in this reality. Remember what Trump said “I love stupid people” well, we can easily see why. A Con artist loves stupid people and each of his supporters are being played as a fool.
@freebirdpv everyone’s under investigation during election Season 🙄
Its all poll numbers, get out and vote.
Don’t trust polls. VOTE! BIDEN 2020 🌊🌊🌊🌊💦🇺🇸⚕️💙
There is only one Scenario, IMO : Trump loses then is indict then sentence to JAIL..
🏄~~~~BYEDON❣ ~~~~~
@Eric Wood You mean the Bidens? Hunter’s drug use was so rampant Joe had to find him a job in Ukraine’s Burisma Natural Gas to land on the Board although he had no energy experience? Also to be paid $83,000 per month. How do explain that Grasshopper???
@Jack J Good for you! Be well, stay healthy. Vote your conscience.
Fingers crossed🤞…VOTE BLUE
@Jack J Lol. What an elaborate hoax! Get real Russian troll. Not even Fake news, this is pure Nazi propaganda
@Jack J again pure nonsense. Hunter is not on the ballot. Neither is Obama or Hillary. Let it go. Orange fascist will lose, get arrested and go to jail. He has the blood of 220000 Americans on his hands. He is a murderer and will pay the price. We, the People demand it.
Polls schmolls. All talk. Let’s put our feet on the sidewalk and VOTE.
A couple of weeks ago Trump said:
“If I am sent a Stand Alone Bill for Stimulus Checks ($1,200), they will go out to our great people IMMEDIATELY.
I am ready to sign right now.
Are you listening Nancy?”
Trump tweeted.
The Democrats, especially Nancy, have stopped the American people from getting the most basic and minimal help we need by the stimulus
She and the Democrats are so determined to make Trump look bad so they can win an Election and for their own personal agendas,
That the Democrats are willing to destroy the American people to get control of power in America!!!
Call all your State’s representatives, especially the Democrats,
AND call Nancy and Harris from California.
(Even if your not from California)
Flood all their phones, email, text with our Protest that we want our Stimulus IMMEDIATELY as Trump is willing to do, as a STAND ALONE Bill!!!
And We deserve and need $2,500, We’ve wanted too long!!
😡😡😡😰😰😰
@s fake news account.

It will be prove that the Sept. 11 2001 attacks, murders, etc on American soil have been forgotten and don’t matter anymore. Because if all the people that will vote for Harris/Biden are opening up our country AGAIN to TERRORISTS to do the same thing again. Just wait and see. I am so confused why they are ANTI-AMERICA and against traditions of the USA. I predict that terrorists will do the same in America if Harris/Biden are elected.
So, you guys are gonna do this again? Play with touch screens and ramble about polls that mean Nothing… VOTE AMERICA, VOTE.
VOTE!!!!! BIDEN/HARRIS 🌊🌊🌊🌊💦🇺🇸⚕️💙
VOTE! VOTE! VOTE! We are a laughing stock to other countries! This makes no sense!
Well, it kind of does, when you hear trumps base.
@José da Cunha Filho we are a joke in our own country lol
LET’S GO BIDEN
The electoral college really needs to go
and conservative Democrats like Biden, Feinstein , Mark Kelly…..ect, will be the first to support keeping It. The poor heads you lose, tails you still lose.
Can you imagine if Florida, Texas, Georgia and Arizona all flipped this time?
That’s what were aiming for! VOTE! TAKE FRIENDS TO VOTE! BIDEN 2020 🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊💦🇺🇸⚕️💙
Already put in my ballot for florida
Bringin in the blue wave!
We would be united states again. Wouldn’t that feel odd?
THAT’S RIGHT. Trump won their votes.
@SleonHikari Most Floridians do not support Cuban Communism coming to America. Just because you want handouts…Then more tent cities cropping up like in California, Oregon and Washington state. So Sad!!
C’mon Florida!! Give the win to BIDEN! 🇺🇸🇺🇸
