Trump Sends Six-Page Screed To Pelosi On The Eve Of Historic Vote | The Last Word | MSNBC
This letter alone should be enough to have him committed to a psychiatric hospital. Trump is losing his disgusting mind.
For the people that haven’t read the transcript, here is an audio of it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cha9sRD75I0
Facts!
Sounds like Trump is panicking.
His mind has finally cracked.
Randy Smith
That was NEVER the point you moron. He needs to know he is accountable. Otherwise we may as well simply hand the office over to the highest foreign bidder. Putin
@John Deegan and yet he will serve 5more years, WINNING!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@Jeremy Backup
*You wish LOSER 👈😆🇺🇸
History is written by every country. Most of them wont write the story Trump wants.
And just so that Pelosi fully understood how Trump was feeling,, he also sent her a video clip of him spinning around in a circle on the Oval Office floor kicking and screaming.😭😭😭
Nancy was not amused.
TRUMP IS MENTALLY ILL AND UNFIT FOR HE HAS NO SENSE OF RIGHT AND WRONG.
Okay doctor Sam, if you say so.
Also an adderall addict
Exactly! He doesn’t understand the difference between a patriot and traitor…
If you used to wonder what it would be like if were your crazy, ranting uncle were to become president, well now you know.
Trumps letter will remain in American history for all time.
You don’t even have to be convicted of a crime to lose your job in this constitutional republic. Lindsey Graham at Bill Clinton’s impeachment
No Trump nor Kushner was ever granted National Intelligence agencies clearances because of their close ties to Russia. After a year-and-a-half of being it appointed by Donald Trump and working for America’s government the trumps and kushner’s we’re giving security clearances by the Republicans who changed the rules and laws to give them instead of being granted by a National Intelligence Agency
Donald Trump personally knowingly and willingly begged Russia live on national TV debate stage you can watch it anytime you want still on YouTube Donald Trump jr. Jared Kushner testimony under oath said that they met Russian spies after getting contacted that they got Donald Trump for message and had hacked America’s government computer to benefit Donald Trump in the 2016 election that’s Congressional Underoath testimony by Trump and Kushner
Rodger Stone seven convictions on all counts prove Donald Trump knowingly and willingly committed treason against America with the aid of Russia

OK, explain how everyone in his circle, is in prison or pending trials & he is sweet & PURE as the driven SNOW…?
Give me a frickin break.
I prayed for the President on his visit to Hershey PA to sink in one of those sink holes that opens up on regular basis in middle town and Hershey .
Yes, this letter will be a special point in history, when an insane president wrote an insane letter to a just and sane woman
Someone wrote the letter for the Nut Case. Then the Nut Case put his signature on it.
Tom Stelzer Absolutely!
I’m an Australian and I pray for the President. I pray wisdom. I pray for justice. I pray for the USA and what I think it stand for.
Amen
A M yes, your prayers aren’t utterly worthless And you are not screaming to an empty sky.
@Sarcastro sarcastro_ very ironic and equally useless comment “Sarcastro”
Lawrence O., the reason we watch you every night is not just what you report but HOW YOU EXPLAIN it …slowly so that I can absorb it …. Thank you 🙏
Ps I gotta laugh sometimes as to the way you critique DT… it’s so eloquent yet makes me chuckle at the same time . Thank you for being YOU! 🇺🇸🇺🇸👏👏👏👏❤️
Wow dude, you just admitted to being brainwashed by MSNBC!! That is what’s wrong with this country right now, half the people are like you and believe anything these media people tell you to believe. Start thinking for yourself! Wake TF Up!!! Stop listening to the spin! This is all Propaganda TV and you wouldn’t know the truth if it slapped you up side the head!
Ohh it stands out alright !!! But not in a good way baby Trump 😳😉
I think, historians 200 years from now will be thankful, that Trump brought a little comedy into our history of carnage with this letter.
Steven Miller took short hand then wrote it for miss spellings.. Mitch is committing obstruction.
loyal Bird …Agree, this has Steven Miller all over it…spot on👍🏽
And you misspell “misspellings .” 😂😎
@RMPsumma you misspelled your name
@loyal Bird Nonsensical, ridiculously lame reply noted. Oh, and capital letters begin sentences and periods end them. 😂😎😂😎
Insanity is a valid line of defense, but not against impeachment.
Trump is such a compulsive liar that he can’t even avoid lying in the letter he intends for future historians. And those same historians will look back and see exactly how bereft of integrity and ethics Trump truly was.
True that.
History will look at this letter and confirm to everyone that “Yes, Donald J. Trump was indeed, completely bonkers and should never have been president in the first place”
Thanks Trump!
“It’s a witch hunt! It’s a witch hunt!”

You mean Joe Biden?

No. Why would a happily married MAN hump a broom? You moron!
Trump need to start reading Dr Sueus books.
