'What The Hell Is Wrong With You?' Dems Blast Trump For 'Lynching' Tweet | The 11th Hour | MSNBC
Emmet Till was a lynching…. Trump is a millionaire reality show host
@Conservative Jew Mate, you’re not on the level. No person who is both rational and honest will say that Trump’s actions do not merit an impeachment inquiry. Insofar as Trump likened the inquiry to a lynching, he was clearly evincing a persecution complex. He was also failing to understand the qualitative difference between being the subject of an impeachment inquiry and being extra-judicially hanged until dead. What you’re implying is that evil actions of Democrats logically entail Trump’s innocence, which, of course, makes you either irrational or a liar. Jim Crow laws were bad ≠ Trump is good.
More outrage to distract from his CRIME.
@Todd Mintz u must not know the definition of evidence, or u just dont care, delusion is the trump supporters best trait so it makes sense
o.g Paramount I know the definition, so now present the evidence.
@Dave Ponsford No evidence that Trump violated the emoluments clause. He may be tied up for a while over the obstruction cases, but that will come after he leaves office, probably in 5 years.
@Todd Mintz 👍👍 these people wake up every morning looking for bad Trump news,, this is their fix.. I’m telling you TDs is real..👍🇺🇸
Evil hides itself in many different forms ,today the fake President disgust even the devil.
except he doesn’t hide his evilness.
@Folk Aart racists like you deserve to be lynched.
@Folk Aart you have my people confused with your wicked race. You are the seed of the devil.
once he’s put in jail he will probably lynch himself

@Steve Walker that this selfish pig would take his own life never crossed my mind, but epstein didn’t either.
What are the main charges involved?
@Never Again He’s a sable genius with unmatched wisdom in his own head. Utterly overblown opinion of himself. I just don’t se iot, he will be screaming blame at everyone. He will never take responsibility for his crimes.

👏👏👏
2010realitycheck How so? Explain why you think our education system failed me. Or are you going to take the typical Democrat stance of making allegations without any supportive explanation or evidence?
The left believes black people are too stupid to take care of themselves.
The left believes blacks are too stupid to obtain an ID.
The left has held blacks down for generations.
Trump wants to get rid of illegal aliens . Which would help blacks tremendously.
Trump has created the jobs that has lowered the unemployment of blacks to all time record lows.
Obama did absolutely nothing to progress the black community.
@Jake MacHine BRAVO! NAILED IT
@Ronnie Jackson lynching has more than one meaning. You don’t need to be tied up by the neck to be lynched.
Trump has never done or said anything that is racist.
…but Clinton impeachment was lynching. Benghazi hearing was lynching.
Wrong!
The right question to Trump would be “Is there anything even remotely RIGHT with you?!”
(and ironically , there isn’t. Trump isn’t actually a republican. He’s a poser labeling himself as one to gain and scam them of their support.)
On the contrary, Trumpo the Clown is *_F A R_* right.
Utha But not how you clowns did Obama right? or ARE doing with BIDEN, BERNIE and WARREN? hahahaha
Trump is a TRAITOR
Trump is actually a republican! The republicans are selling their souls for him in real time! They own all of him! He is their face! Make no mistake!
Only people dying are kids at the border and Kurds.
Brainspurs sociopathic instincts will be on full display in front of the world.
@Mark Shelor If that needs explaining, you too,may suffer from the same affliction.
😂 Brainspurs
Hebrew’s people in this country are being murder everyday by white cops and all over the world.
Graham is a hypocrite
Miss Lindsey!? Nah never 🤣
Fred Rogers was quoted to saying “You can grow ideas in the garden of your mind”. Trump is just the most notable example of what happens when you use excessive amounts of natural fertilizer.
Mark Core lol
And hairspray, lots and lots of hairspray.
Thankfully the testimony in the legitimate impeachment committees will go long way to securing justice for America and the planet.
Trump is not the shocking part of this its the fact people protect and defend him threw words or silence
Exactly Sir.. Those in the GOP , his Attorneys his Appointees.. all of those who have covered for him and enabled him, are equally to blame for this catastrophe.. Those folks do know Right from Wrong, even “If” their Dear Leader does not..
Steve Mcgrath Propaganda lies on both sides, but the truth locks up the guilty, not news forums reporting the news ,that’s my gripe and further more ,the truth always come to light, with in minutes, hours , days ,months and in some years , common sense and a open realistic day by day events evaluates my thought process, Myself among others who approach dilemmas on a level of ones plight is the best remedy to control what’s reality & false hood ,Atgolf Twittler aka #45 Agent Orange & The Kool Aid Sippers of AMERIKKKA agenda took the worlds view back to the late 60s ,futile is those who refuse to believe as such ,Make AMERIKKKA Great is a dream for racist Caucasian & a nightmare for people of color ,rather G O P /D N C ,the truth always comes to light ‼️
@OG Hymie Weiss wrong mate great journalism helps lock people up aswell , and expose things , on the premise that everything comes out in the end philosophy i disagree with that as im clearly more cynical than yourself
Trump – a glib and shameless liar
Jason Johnson pointed something out that I think needs clarification. He said “white Democrats” committed lynchings for nearly a century after the end of the Civil War. And that is correct. White Democrats committed some of the worst atrocities in human history during that time.
But people seem to forget that the parties have swapped platforms since the end of the Civil War. In 1936 when FDR was elected for a second term on the ideas of Depression-era reforms that created things like welfare and pensions, it basically finalized the platform swap that had been occurring since the end of the Civil War by creating what many Republicans today decry as “big government”. Well that used to be a Democratic rallying cry during the Civil War, being against big government. Republicans were the party of the North, lead by such great Americans as Abraham Lincoln, while the South, the Democrats, embodied the idea that they should be allowed to do as they wish, when they wish, the government be damned.
And now, today, those roles are completely reversed. Remember that the next time someone claims that the Republican party is the party of Abe Lincoln. If Honest Abe were alive today, he would absolutely back the party that helped generate the first African American President.
Youve been following Dinesh. Well done. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
And still 100 millions US citizens think he is doing a great job. Good grief!
@Peter D bewildering. Fox is the problem that must find some solution.
100 million can’t believe he’s doing a good job.. impossible. He will go down as the most corrupt, inept and honestly dim president in history
@Zeptepi / he is a lie, his name will forever make us nauseous.
Theyre all dead from the neck up
What isn’t wrong with him is the real question.
This.
also the shortest answer: nothing 🙂
To Ranaldo Bobsled – YES Exactly !
There should be a firing squad, but only after the trial.
“Yer fired!” “Yer fired”” “Yer fired!” “Yer fired!”
Richard Alexander . . . You are so kind allowing a trial.
@Authorized User Even traitors deserve a trial.
@Richard Alexander sbsolutely, but no one is above the Law.
Such a difference between professional politicians & trump.
trump, Commander F up. Who sold America to putin Russia
We are used to his distraction techniques we will press on!
