    1. rickruiz1962 refresh my memory if you will.
      The incumbent is not supposed to hold rallies from the WH.
      To do so suggests he owns the place and considers it his property.
      Dethrone him if you dare!
      Yet the Party sits on its hands and does nothing.
      Seems to me you have a bit of a problem democracy/constitutional republic-wise.

    2. It’s a rat trap… it takes a special kind of stupid to willingly go visit a covid hotspot to see an infected mc… crazy

    3. Not trying to be sarcastic or anything, but isn’t that illegal? Isn’t it illegal for him to have a campaign rally at the White House? Has this been done before?

  1. Isn’t holding campaign rallies at the White House illegal? Is there any crime this corrupt president won’t commit?

    1. @Diana Robertson If that room is in the WH, I think it would count towards the violation. I watch Glenn Kirschner on YT. He is a former DC U.S. attorney. His videos are interesting. He thinks that Trump’s approach to superspreader events might get him tried for manslaughter. Or attempted.

    1. Diarrhea is a known symptom of the coronavirus and here it is displayed so clearly in its verbal form. 💩💩💩 Trump’s supporters will later parrot all this excrement.

    2. @Christopher Colon dude it’s been 4 years and still can’t stop talking about Obama and Hillary like jeez obsessed much

  2. Pathetic. Has to get his fix by holding a staged rally so he doesn’t feel like a total loser. And this is who they call their strong man?

    1. Why didn’t Joe China condemn white supremacy, antifa and blm? Also will you racists be bailing out Daniel Harris the blm supporter who kidnapped the corrupt Democrat governor?

    1. @coop awhip dude how much has Trump got from Golfing trips 200million, they even found stealing from you border wall donars, he has fired IGs looking into his corruption, they have disbanded his charity, Trump organisation is in court for fraud, his kids are mixing politics and business, we haven’t seen his tax returns, they profits of stock market insider trading, trump university fraud, has shares companies doing business with government like hydroxychloroquine producers, loans to Russia and others…..And you are complaining about Obama

    1. @Sheila White That’s all you liberals listen to! CNN MSDNC Cant you see how pro Democrat they are? It’s crazy! And yall ain’t THAT dumb to NOT see it!

    2. @Joseph Willis fk you and your Communist party who teamed with China to plague the world just to remove Trump!

    1. Except for any children that are there, every person that gets the virus will have only themselves to blame. I only hope they don’t infect anyone else, especially a child.

    2. The supporters don’t get it that they are part of the plan he has created… Stupidity can be painful and @times deadly… His supporters are proof of that

    3. Why didn’t Joe China condemn white supremacy, antifa and blm? Also will you racists be bailing out Daniel Harris the blm supporter who kidnapped the corrupt Democrat governor?

    1. Trump is desperate. He KNOWS he’s going to lose in a Landslide. Once out of Office he fears spending the next decade in and out of court for his various scams and blatant corruption.

    2. @Sheriff Of Nothingbutham you seem to not have the true story their buddy how about you go back and think of something worth reading except Trump garbage, BLM had nothing to do with burning down anything, how come you haven’t brought up about the white supremacist who actually shot and killed people so what are you going to say about that scene as your worried about things. Where on earth do you come up with Biden and China? don’t you mean Donald China wasn’t it Trump who claimed president xi was a good man and friends with him, …well?

    3. @agf1700 yep wouldn’t want to be in his shoes in 2021 he will end up in prison and his mate Barr will be there with him

  3. This guy is a lunatic! Someone who is way out of control and should’ve never been president let’s face the facts here! I can’t even stand to listen to him watching it disgusts me

    1. Trump still thinks he can will society to throw caution to the wind and just pretend the virus isn’t deadly to virtually anyone. He is failing….. again.

  4. Trump’s not suppose to be using the White House as a place to hold his reelection campaign rallies and on the taxpayers dime. What a Cheap SOB ! VOTE BLUE !

    1. He’s not supposed to do a lot of bull pucky he just thinks he can do whatever he wants because “I’m the president I can do what I want.” “I have absolute power”.

    2. Why didn’t Joe China condemn white supremacy, antifa and blm? Also will you racists be bailing out Daniel Harris the blm supporter who kidnapped the corrupt Democrat governor?

    3. @Everblue Freediving So why isn’t being invoked, or whatever has to happen to use that Act? I’m also Australian and we change Prime Ministers like you change underwear, it’s weird how he is able to do all this and still be President. I feel like your country has sleep walked into a dictatorship.

    4. @Stacia Osiecki If he keeps getting away with it, I sort of don’t blame him! Why are your Legislature and your Judiciary such toothless tigers?

    1. @18billions no way, the rest of the world are getting ready to open their borders. US has the highest covid death toll in the world and lowest survival rate.

    2. @SoCal Surfer16 Obama saved the economy from economic collapse and built the economy trump took credit for before trump tanked the economy.

    3. If Obama did 1% of what Trump did white supremacists would have lynched him you know that’s the truth look into your white supremacist heart Jesus loves you

    4. GreenKrickett
      Are you saying that no one on earth is more hypocritical than the average Republican how about a religious person who believes Trump is a good person

    5. Jeff Woods Jeff you a fantastic name and I pray for you I pray that the hate you hold in your heart will melt and I pray you understand what Donald Trump really is he is a rallying cry for good people to do good work please message me

  5. I don’t think Trump is capable of a “teaching moment “ . He believes masks make him appear “weak” . His “sheep” will follow their leader’s ideals and follow his right over the COVID cliff like a herd of Lemmings!

    1. Jake MacHine It certainly dominates Trump’s life. Another day with zero new community covid cases here in New Zealand . The Whitehouse has more cases than we do.

    2. Carl Taylor : I agree ! He’s putting up a strong front because a narcissist has to present to be better, be stronger, be younger, be smarter, better looking etc. I think that mask will fall off & he’ll end his campaign!

  6. Well, it looks like Trump is killing off his supporters. Well, they were warned by doctors. Will they get sick before they vote?

    1. Why didn’t Joe China condemn white supremacy, antifa and blm?

      Also will you racists be bailing out Daniel Harris the blm supporter who almost kidnapped the corrupt Michigan Democrat governor? Or do you only bail out people who burn down African-American and Mexican-American owned businesses, and attack innocents?

  7. He has shamed American and on behalf of me and everyone else that isn’t blind. We do not support this man in any kind of way 🤨

    1. Joe Biden has always been my idol. In fact, me and joe go way back. In 1965, I was in a band with Joe. The band had 4 people because we wanted to make a beatles cover band. It was me, joe, peter file, and moe Lester. Joe was playing the drums and honestly, he was better than ringo. Not only that, but he was very respectful towards others and he was able to SMELL out bs. Me and joe wrote many songs in the summer of ‘65. Here are some songs.

      You’re my cutie tonight
      Punchin’ at it
      Corn pop ain’t stoppin
      Sniffing in the wind
      Play my record player tonight

      Anyway, enough about the good old days, I’m simply here to tell you to vote for Joe. I guarantee you that America would be safer and friendlier once you get joe in the White House.

  8. The issue is not that Trump treated his entire presidency as a political rally but that he never acted like the president of all USA citizens!
