Week Two Impeachment Testimony Will Take Us Inside Trump's White House | The 11th Hour | MSNBC
Trump asking for personal favors and using United States assets as collateral is not what the founding fathers had in mind.
Well, in a way it actually is what they had in mind, but only in regards to creating the Impeachment process.
But bribeing people with your tax dollars.
$Priceless.
“When a president does it…it’s not illegal” – Tyrants
@Mike Bond yeah maybe in some philosophical context, but we still have to try to stop entities that take for themselves just a little too much. abuse of power is still a thing. we can engineer better systems to make compromises in power dynamics
@Catherine Philosophical? Here’s my philosophy: don’t make yourself a slave. Very esoteric, right?
The powers are unbalanced by social media. Constitution needs to be amended.
It’s true he is president everyone must kneel and do as he says
@Joel Bregoli
Heh. Yeah.
Drumph was upset about athletes taking a knee because it was just ONE knee.
Giuliani is being very very quiet.
They are as corrupt as their boss. Vladimir Putin. Their master.
Hiding out in a mafia safe-house.
Giuliani? I don’t know him that well. He was a loose cannon kinda guy. People say I met him a few times, but I don’t remember. I’m sure he’s a nice guy, but I didn’t have much to do with him….That’s if I had anything at all to do with him at all…which I didn’t.
Yeah, I could of had my picture taken with Giuliani. But a lot of people want to get their picture taken with me. I don’t really remember meeting the guy.
j walsh ……………. He’s out scoping for some new goon, what with Lev and Igor exposed . I’ve heard he’s got a line on a ‘Boris & Natasha’
This is turning out to be crash course in our government. Pay attention! Cause this s**t is vital. And we don’t want this to happen again. He had no knowledge of how government worked, and no scruples. None of this is surprising. His voters wanted this. And they got what they wanted. This is what happens when you hire a demolition specialist to work on your teeth.
Makes me happy read this. Most Americans wanted change and got it. Trump wasn’t a politician, that’s why he was elected and will be re-elected. Majority of Americans may dislike trump, but even more of them don’t want to become a socialist country. You’ll see that next year.
@Logan McLean I don’t think so. Trump lost the popular vote. I think you will be surprised by how few people want a Trump dictatorship.
Oh it will happen again… no matter what you do. It’s inevitable. Power corrupts… so don’t give anyone power over you. Least of all those who seek it, like politicians.
@Logan McLean Logan McLean We already live in a socialist country. All countries are to at least some extent socialist. And the majority of Americans want MORE of it. The people who don’t like Trump have very good reasons for it, but they refuse to see that the election of someone like him was inevitable, and now we’ve likely started down a road that will lead to greater and greater authoritarianism, toggling between Trumpian fascism-idiocracy and socialism until this place is one big sinkhole. It may be starting to tip toward Trump NOT getting re-elected in 2020 and a socialism-lite candidate getting in. We’ll see. Regardless, the die is cast, and the next few decades are going to be a bumpy ride.
Sonland needs to visit Cohen and take some advice before he winds up in the next cell…
Directly inside the insane asylum.
Just cause I have the power to smack the crap out’ve a puppy doesn’t mean I should do it. Bad argument.
My favorite team on MSNBC: Rachel Maddow, Lawrence O’Donnell, Brian Williams and Joy Reid batting weekend cleanup.
Bernie!
He is a disgrace to the human race
3:20 *_PLEASE_* stop talking about flagrantly complicit +rump-accessories as if they genuinely believe they have a point. Bill, the lying memo-ist, Barr doesn’t genuinely believe that having a president sell out America’s interests, in favor of his own, is good for America. That is not a legitimate opinion. HE’S COMPLICIT. Please speak of his CLAIMS in more appropriate terms. (To the media, broadly, not just to the soft-spoken Ms. Benner.)
Every time this twit tweets, I am forced to add a new entry into my list of stupid things Trump said.
Anybody seen Giuliani of late? He’s gone quiet. That’s unusual for him. Barr and Giuliani need to speak up now. They are both complicit in Trump’s misbehaviour.
How can the constitutionally mandated power of impeachment be unconstitutional?
Read the transcripts. Quit listening to people who wanted trump impeached since day 1. Fake narratives like all the other things trump has done. This will be mueller investigation 2.0, except this time the majority of Americans know it’ll lead to nothing
@Logan McLean we can’t read the transcript, a summary instead of a transcription was released, only. The Mueller investigation is the framework for the impeachment inquiry. The abuse of power/violation of the oath of office is the crux where *all* the corruption and criminality meet. It’s unfortunate we, Americans, have to go through this but we made a mess letting a conman into the WH and now we have to clean up that mess. #countdownto46 #TRE45ON #collusioncoverup #sad
ruth d .…………………… Barr would say that the Declaration of Independence was fraudulent if it suited his masters .
That time the U.S. government was more corrupt than the Ukraine’s…
Barr needs to be impeached out of office for his criminal activity and corruption involving trump and covering up for his criminal activity and corruption. This man is not representing his department with loyalty and respect for constitutional law and ethics but is doing what ever trump tells him to do. He’s going to prison for trump you can see it…
Jim Jordan is such a tool. He doesn’t ask questions, he badgers. not a good look!
Yeah that’s nothing, he supported and enabled a pedophile that is definitely not a good look.
first into the re-education camps post-trump. Jordan is gonna need a lot of ‘deprogramming’.
DEUS abençoe Trump com toda sorte de livramento em nome de JESUS amém!
President Donald Trump is not more powerful than the constitution that he swore he would uphold.
“the president has the power to do this and therefore it was not wrong” scary, very scary and a very stupid argument.
U are correct in all counts if people just study the past .
What a waste of money .
4years wasted money in the past and now we do need is more housing for the poor Americans are becoming homeless in record time now that shameful.
@Hugo Egas Yes, Hugo Not helping the homeless and the impoverished is shameful.
When your only response to overwhelming condemnation of Trumps actions is “As president he has the right to do what he likes”, you’ve reached moral rock bottom.
Muricuns comes to realise they live in a dictatorship and they have a dear leader . What a joke , the all world has been knowing this for 50 years .
