To All Concerned Georgian: please 🙏 Vote for Two Democrat Senator on January 05,2021. Thank you 💗
WALLY<---- 2 day old tRoll account.
@john smith russianTroll.
@Wally Censorship yes, there was fraud…committed by republicans voting for trump. their day in court will come.
@john smith of course.
Will do.
No limits to Trump corruption…
The very people who voted for and rabidly support Trump are the very people who will never benefit from any of Trump’s criminality.
None at all.
This guy is so crooked that when he checks out they will have to screw him into the ground.
Trump will try to burn down the house with everyone inside… now do you think comparisons with Hitler exaggerated???
Noam Chomsky said Trump isn’t like Hitler, he’s worse. That’s not an exact quote.
@Wally Censorship
Oh you don’t want that. If so unhappy , leave , go to a country that will welcome your twisted, ignorant believes.
@grandma k.
Mostly because , he can’t read.
@Stig Rexx
Not yours.
@Tina Turner
❤️
He should be help accountable. Lock him up😷
Help accountable ?
I’m sure to give him protection against the Deep State that will have rigged investigations led by the fake news networks and the failing New York Times. He is easy to predict.
The Republican Party would have to be honest for that to happen. They aren’t. It won’t.
And STILL his fan club hasn’t figured out that he is not rich. All this grifting and begging for donations are not the tactics of a billionaire.
The Crooks are getting more Crooked. 🤔
@Wally Censorship the difference is that Trump and family were prosecuted for a crime that actually happened, not one you Trump worshippers made up.
@Wally Censorship
Ohhhhhhhh what a sore loser. Where you getting your info from, Vladimir? Or is it Gustav?
@Wally Censorship
Still here OKSANA?
@Wally Censorship
Wow so butt hurt. As if.😅😂
Trump is a Grifter like Televangelists who gives False Hopes and take their Money 💰. Highest bidders will get early Pardons.
What a joke to see a communist dictators like leadership with this idiotic useless fake president. Smh
After he exposing the truth Democratics dirty dealings, regardless. Pray President Trump Pardon Julian Assange. Cheers from Australia 👍
Paula White 🤢🤮.
@Joseph Dueh Jr. pure ignorance
OH PLEASE Donald Trump try to pardon yourself!
Whatever competent lawyers he still has would be advising him not to… but offer him legitimate advice he’ll do the exact opposite.
Any pardons issued by the president since this bribery investigation started should be declared to be “corrupt pardons” and therefore be Void.
I think will probably happen , America has to get it,s pride back , the world has been laughing at you for the last 4 years
@William Moloney- glad I’m not a citizen of that particular madness… I’m one of the “Rest of the world”.
I emphatically agree.
tRump corrupts everything he touches. ……COVID? “WE’RE ROUNDING THE CORNER”
Yep, when you’re running around in circles you’re always rounding a corner.
To All Concerned Georgian: please 🙏 Vote for Two Democrat Senator on January 05,2021. Thank you 💗
@Ron Mortimer …apparently…
I mean, if trumps innocent, WHY PARDON?🤔🤔🤔
Please, when will people learn you can’t reason with Trumpists. They’ll just claim he’s protecting himself from some deep state conspiracy to imprison him. Rational thought has no place in the US right wing.
@Wally Censorship
😂😅😂😅😂😅still stupid, I see. You sucker
@Wally Censorship
No evidence? 😂😅😂😅 It will surface when he’s out of office. He knows that, that’s why he’s scrambling to turn election around. Not happening.
Mueller’s report stated a president could not be indicted WHILE in office That will end Jan 20. 2020 at noon.
@Tom Drake
Trump ordered Flynn to lie. As he does to all that work for him. Some didn’t & resigned or got fired. The ones that stayed, well are or were in jail , until trump pardoned them.
@Alicia Espinosa Reference link to backup your claim that Trump ‘ordered’ Flynn to lie?
The Crooks are getting more Crooked. 🤔
Unbelievable anywhere but in trump’s world.
The money trail for Pardons —-> Trump
Americans should be ashamed, to had voted for this man. I feel ashamed just to know he is our President.
Me to, I felt dirty ever since he was elected and I live in Texas from long generations of Texans and to know those children are in camps on our border makes me constantly feel so ashamed that I live here and Texas looks like a very dark place to me now and it’s a stain that will never leave us.
I couldn’t believe it. I still cannot. I can not believe that Trump of the 1980s and 1990s managed to convince that many people that he could improve their lives
Me too an am not even American!
I thought getting him out of our house would end his reign..but to my horror he’s talking about running for president in 2024 so he can keep dismantling our wonderful Democracy into a One party Republican rule with no voting and all white people evangelical…So scared for our country..
@Toni Butts
He can run, but we’ll remember and will show up to vote in millions and stop him.
As a reality show man he is doing a good job, it’s quite entertaining. Sadly his followers don’t get the show part of it.
,He’s gonna start breaking things up” (Mary Trump)
Yes Mary had his number down correctly
It looks like the Trump Syndicate is having a “Going Out of Business Sale”.
The guy selling Trump flags in my area is having a 2 for 1 sale. Still not selling any. Can’t even give ’em away.
That’s what I though. they may be out of the WH, but out of business I don’t think so. Trump and family has milked the system to the max, and that include the GOP in every possible way. Forget the crimes they have already pocketed million of dollars apparently “legally”, some under the table. Confronting Trump is not the sole responsibility of the SDNY it’s gotta be a concerted effort. Biden wants to move forward. I say accountability must prevail.
@Howard Taylor Tell him to Give them to The Homeless.
They might be good for the Camp 🔥 Fire🙄
Trump will sell those pardons in order to get himself out of debt. Let’s face it, he has a lot of it!
He said : drain the swamp , actually he creates a monster septic swamp .
Actually he is it his logo on the swamp and started charging for admission. Lol
He needed the water for the cesspool he’s created.
There has to be “a government official” involved, only the President can give a pardon.
Trump has debt coming due of 400 million of course he’s trying to sell pardons.
Remember T**** pardoned the Illinois governor who sold the Senate seat
