    1. @Natural Technologist y’all keep saying this is communist propaganda but you idiots probably all think Canada is a communist place just because it isn’t America

  1. It is an attempted coup.The only things stopping it are the incompetence and the lack of military interest. It ought to have serious legal consequences.

    1. Believe President Elect Biden’s AG and Justice Department will not forget this. Trump can’t be allowed to get away with this because if another smarter smoother Trump comes along in the future he might succeed at toppling our Democracy. All his life Trump has been able to walk away his failures and many times profit from it, but he’s not walking away from this.

    2. @Pro’ se Kim Wait till we produce the EVIDENCE OF MASSIVE FRAUD IN TX, SC, FL AND ON AND ON.
      Do you REALLY think that ONLY DEMOCRATS CAN COMMIT FRAUD.
      The RepubTURDS are the masters of all sorts of FRAUD.

    1. @pat chapman there’s also a reason why republicans are against some sort of automatic voter registration system think.

  2. This is ludicrous. She wasn’t sane enough to be his attorney then but she’s good enough now? FFS 🤦🏿‍♀️

    1. The MSM narrative is falling apart.people don’t believe them anymore. You are a dumba ss if you believe them. What you don’t realize is that Trump won , and those people who changed the election results are facing serious treasonous actions. Federal prisons

  3. You know we wouldn’t be in this situation if they had voted to impeach AND remove him. Thanks Congress for failing at your sworn in duty.

    1. @Patricia Burgess He was impeached by the House of Representatives and acquitted by the Senate, both being components of Congress.

    2. You have Mitch McConnell to THANK for that!! If they would have heard the evidence the outcome might have been different in the senate!
      But now no authority seems to be doing anything about this farce that is taking place! They are threatening our democracy! No one seems to care!

    3. The Congress voted for Impeachment. The Senate lead by Mitch McConnell refused to impeach. The Senators voted against, Congress charged Trump the Senate sold their Republican Souls for Trump.

    4. @Judy Rowland “Congress” is the term used for the US House of Representatives AND the US Senate – combined. Neither of them alone is the “Congress”.

    1. Trump seems to be above the law. He has gotten away with so many crimes and been enabled by the Republican senators that he actually believes he is above the law.

    2. @Anna Jo2000 The media have star envy and no matter how much they want to look away, are always tricked. Like the sparkly toy waved infron of a cat. Yes the cat tires and looses interest, giving the owner that “I ‘m not falling for that dumb thing again, then falls for it.

  4. If he’s insane, then it’s the 25th Amendment.
    If he’s sane, its sedition, and he and his cohorts are arrested.
    Pick one.

    1. I think we’re seeing the real desperation of a man who realises that on Jan 20th all his dirty little secrets will be retrieved from the depths of the Top Secret Washington vaults. And he’s only going to get more desperate as time shortens. People should be _extremely_ worried and Pence and Co should have the 25th set and ready to go. Of course they won’t as they have no morals and no backbone. The deity of your choice help us all!

    2. Both. Exercise the 25th and have Pence for the remaining month, then go with Sedition, a felony punishable by fines and up to 20 years in prison.

    3. nothing would make me happier than seeing the very judges he appointed find him guiilty of sedition & treason.

  5. I thought the purpose of independent counsel was so they would act independently instead of pushing a clear partisan agenda.

    1. @Harold Moore also you aren’t the Democrats, you’re just some bloke who voted for them. Democrats care about power not people.

    2. @Chaos Trump lied about the severity of the pandemic and was holding mask less super spreader events. Trying to convince people who cares about who. You are a moron.

    1. I disagree! I think it’s more in the style of 1970’s Central America. It would take at least one more term to get to “North Korean territory.”
      I do agree that it’s heading that way. (Quite mad!)
