    1. The democrats and the media’s MSNBC,CNN, CBS and few others created TREASON against President Trump!! Treason is against our constitution. By attacking and mocking sitting in President Trump for over 4 years.

    1. He’s too lazy to learn to play.
      He’d hang the violin on the wall and then brag to people about how great of player he is.

  1. The fake patriotism of these riotous criminals makes them “fakeriots”. Let’s keep the mugshots coming!

    2. @Rezyn Rogue Voters accounting for 47% of the american public is hardly a minority, ur just an imbecile cause you’ve got all that bpa & fluoride swirling around your brain from drinking too much tap water, but it’s ok there’s plenty of special ed teachers for whatever autistic kids your soured seed can create. #HumanTrashVotesDem

    1. He didn’t stop it because it’s what he wanted. Power corrupts and 45 wants all the power as Dictator in Chief.

  2. That’s what a Sociopath does.. Charles Manson was a sociopath with followers that did his dirty work too. Charles Manson also went to PRISON!

    1. @Unknown Player ouch that really hurts, but not as much as a keg of nails coming at you at supersonic speed

    2. The democrats and the media’s MSNBC,CNN, CBS and few others created TREASON against President Trump!! Treason is against our constitution. By attacking and mocking sitting in President Trump for over 4 years.

    3. @Roman Ward it was a coordinated propaganda effort, along with a coup by the intelligence “community” in order to keep the Military Industrial complex in full power and keep us in Afghanistan, Syria, iraq and south korea. Deep State and the Swamp won, deposed our populist president. now we should turn to this:
      NATIONAL TAX BOYCOTT REVOLT. vote with your taxes! don’t pay them

  3. Good thing Putin didn’t launch missiles, the commander in chief would watch them on TV as well.

  4. After encouraging violence and lying to his people that he’d be right by their side, he stays in a safe room while happily and proudly watching this unfold. He’s a disgusting traitor to this country.

    1. @J2049 Well what they did over the summer was far worse. But since big tech is in with the democrats, it only matters when Trump supporters are involved. How anyone could vote for a child sniffing communist like Biden just shows how uneducated people are. They believe everything from these fake news stations. Biden can’t even complete a sentence lol

    2. @Dan R I don’t support any violence coming from any group, but this particular discussion is not about Antifia or BLM. Your deflection with not work on me. It’s about those individuals who stormed the Capitol like the angry weak souls they’re. It’s also about a man who’s in power, and who took an oath to serve and protect America and her citizens. He has not fulfilled his sacred duties. They’re no longer Americans, and they no longer deserve to be called citizens.
      It’s very clear that it’s easier for you to shift the blame onto someone else than be the “patriotic” citizens you claim to be.
      If you’re going to point the finger and refuse to admit what you’ve done, it won’t work. We know and have seen what you’ve become which is the enemy of the country, a terrorists, and a traitor. America will no longer take your lies, hate, violence, disrespect, and destruction. Point your finger, it won’t change the truth, Dan.

    3. @Buddha’s magic mushroom A. Those who breached the capitol should be charged and prosecuted and they will be. B. The fact you don’t acknowledge the BLM and antifa riots shows how one sided you are, and that you only have an issue when it’s the other side. Stop saying all trump supporters are terrorists and enemies. Biden and Harris preach unity? How is that possible when the whole dem side is trying to ban republicans from jobs, flights etc? That’s already causing division. You are too simple minded and believe everything you are fed. Also, Harris was all for the riots over the summer and said they shouldn’t stop. Go look that one up. You also never commented on Joe Biden liking to sniff young girls. Look that one up too. I guess those are the qualities that make a good president.

    2. @Roman Ward O’ your another child, mad because you didn’t get what you demaned for Christmas.
      As a republican, there’s no need to act like a child…..Everybody has to grow up eventually.
      Our country is better than childish inappropriate behavior…

  5. Karma is so stubborn, Trump lived his life as an opportunity and drifter. He is about to face the consequences of his corruption of values and morals. And everything evil that he stood up for.

  6. Told his supporters he’d walk with them to the Capitol but didn’t,then threw them all under the bus the very next day and yet they still follow him.
    Stupidity knows no boundaries

    1. He was going to but then realised the McDonald’s menu had just change from breakfast to normal and went there instead

  7. Honestly who’s even suggesting it’s odd Trump wasn’t helping quell the violence? Trump was enjoying it. He’s probably disappointed the mob didn’t get mike pence and pelosi.

  8. Trump doesn’t care. Trump was expecting to see everyone killed by he’s command. This is insane. Trump will be prosecuted.

    2. @Roman Ward No. The charge of treason is only valid in war.
      Trump is a crook. A liar through and through. There’s mountains of evidence. People mocked Obama. That wasn’t treason. The President is in the Oval Office to serve us, not the other way around.

    3. @chitchant you referenced a fictional movie… this is why you think what you think with no evidence to support other than baseless claims from the dumpster himself

    4. @Roman Ward you don’t commit treason against a President. You commit treason against a country. I can see that your loyalty lies with Trump and not the USA.

    1. @Friend Of The Moon yeah let’s burn them all. how do they dare to take our spot as the mob and rioter. We worked so hard for this all summer long. I’m so disappointed right now 🤔🤦🙃

    2. @Dan R Those were Democrats, Democrats don’t get accused of, arrested for, or convicted of crimes. Haven’t you been paying attention?
      Billions of dollars in damage, dozens of Police gunned down, countless livelihoods lost forever. Never happened. Just ask any Democrat.

    3. Good luck arresting 75,000,000 people genius. Just vomit up another one of queen Nanzi’s talking points, don’t actually think or anything, just do what your masters told you to do.

    4. @Mark Maurer Which Police? the ones who are all on Paid Leave and are being investigated for voluntarily letting the crowd into the Capitol Building without a fight of any kind, those Police?

      You are threatening to use a stick on half of the citizens of America, and you don’t even have control of the stick.

    1. The democrats and the media’s MSNBC,CNN, CBS and few others created TREASON against President Trump!! Treason is against our constitution. By attacking and mocking sitting in President Trump for over 4 years.

    2. @Roman Ward It’s was so unfair of the Allies to resist Germany in the 1930s. If they’d just let Hitler take what he wanted a war could have been avoided.

    3. @Roman Ward The First Amendment also known as the Freedom of Speech was created specifically so that people could criticize their leaders without fear. Are you seriously calling people traitors for exercising their Freedoms in order to hold their leaders accountable just like the founding fathers intended?

    1. The democrats and the media’s MSNBC,CNN, CBS and few others created TREASON against President Trump!! Treason is against our constitution. By attacking and mocking sitting in President Trump for over 4 years.

    2. @M. Ashe If you want to claim fraud then you need to do so with evidence and Trump and his allies for giving opportunity after opportunity to do so and they failed every single time. Biden is going to be your president and if you don’t like it then you can just leave the country.

    1. The democrats and the media’s MSNBC,CNN, CBS and few others created TREASON against President Trump!! Treason is against our constitution. By attacking and mocking sitting in President Trump for over 4 years.

    2. @Roman Ward For god’s sake, get this man Prozac.

      He’s melting, he’s melting… Who is the snowflake now?
