Why It Matters That A Trump Budget Aide Is Breaking Silence On Impeachment | The 11th Hour | MSNBC

    1. Heather Guilty of what? Democrats accuse Trump of the crimes they are guilty of. Ask yourself why the media, Hollywood and the Democrat party used to love Trump before he became a Republican President? Trump has exposed the communist Democrat party, the deep swamp, Hollywood creeps and the fake news and none of these people are happy about it.

    2. Warren there’s more then 100 stuff hes done great an record breaking for the country an you pick one hahahahaha

    3. Yes, and I have been hearing about how long the impeachment process takes. I’m thinking that if Trump croaks, the process would end, saving tax dollars, not mention making most people

    1. @OOF I did it again _You_ might forget in a month, because of all your brain damage. But normal folks aren’t going to forget Trump’s crimes.

    2. @OOF I did it again hahahahahahahahahahaha! “Reality?” Trumpanzees wouldn’t recognize reality if it was a series of lifelong civil servants, career diplomats and honored Ambassadors testifying under oath at a Constitutionally mandated Impeachment hearing that Trump is a criminal who tried to use US taxpayer funds for his own gain while weakening a US ally.

  1. the U.S. has to ask itself a question. Are we going to accept this current behaviour by the WH as normal ? If the answer is yes, then the entire political / judicial system, and by proxy, the country, accepts blatant corruption & lies as the new ‘norm’ at all levels, from the WH, courts & judges, right down to the local cop !

    1. It wouldn’t be accepted in Europe. Why it is defended in America I have wondered for a long time now.
      Does Trump have hypnotizing abilities?

    2. You people are pathetic.  You give your allegiance not to the country, but to career politicians,  who make $170,000- a year, and leave office multi multi millionaires.  Along comes a man who jump starts the economy, implements programs that result in record unemployment, cause record highs in the stock market that funds your retirement accounts, and many other things limpdick career politicians have been promising forever,  and all you can do is hate..    God help us if you ever get your power back,

    3. @Whiskeysuds Jackwagon All of this would be a good arguement if only it was true .Trump did not ” jump start ” the economy . It was forging ahead already and if anything Trump has slowed it down with his trade war BS .

    1. Maja-Danmark… hearsay …Guess you are not watching the current circus in Washington …opinions, 3 hand information and disagreement on foreign policy …
      Btw ….quote Joe Biden
      “I said, ‘You’re not getting the billion…
      I’m going to be leaving here in,
      I think it was about six hours. I looked at them and said: ‘I’m leaving in six hours.
      If the prosecutor is not fired, you’re not getting the money.’
      …Well, *****, he got fired. And they put in place
      someone who was solid at the time.”….. said Joe Biden

    2. @Bob Marshel – I saw the tape of Joe Biden. And if the Trump administration has done the same?
      I happen to be open minded. I put a Democrat in a Republican’s place and vice versa. That way my opinion of actions taken or words said remain without party bias. You should try it. Best wishes, good day, sir.

  2. If you worked for a big company as a CEO & 60% of your stock holders disapproved of your performance and the negative light you shed on the company, how long do you think you would last? This sheit show needs to end, there is nothing left to see or hear. Flush the Orange Floater!

    1. camjamsdad whoever camjam is would make a better president. I don’t care if they’re your child. I don’t care if they’re your pet.

  3. There are 2 kinds of rats. One is leaving the ship and the ones with a R in front of their name in parentheses are going down with it!!

    1. That’s funny. I mean his Republican puppets must think so I do not know whyyyyy they believe they work for him. They work for the American public

  4. Lots of dead American allies lately. Lots of covering, cowering and capitulating to our enemies. 
    Not to mention DT, once again, seeking foreign help in his election. He’s not on your side!

    1. Whiskeysuds Jackwagon You are joking aren’t you, trump was doled out by his father more times than he’s screwed prostitutes! Go google how his father even illegally bought casino chips from trump’s casino, go google trump’s university scandal and if trump is so successful why was he ordered by a judge to pay 2 million for stealing from the trump foundation. He effectively robbed VETS! 🤢🤢🤢🤢. If you can’t research don’t comment.

    2. @Calvin Bottoms called Sonderland on an unsecure cellphone..so that his pal Putin could listen in! And Trump is still complaining about Hillary?
      The GOP should hve given Trump a manual: How to be a President. Including history and geography lessons. Oh silly me.. he does not like to read!!!
      This man has no clue.

    1. Take his ill gotten gains and force him to work as a Walmart greeter or perhaps a fast food restaurant. Since he claims all Americans are rich, let him see the flip side.

  5. TRUMP’S PERFECT PHONE CALL SHOULD BE RELEASED AS AN AUDIO RECORDING. A summary of his call has been released by the WH as a so-called transcript; there should be no problem in releasing the actual recording. It could be an example for other heads-of-state to follow and also showcase Trump’s unmatched wisdom and genius. We may then enjoy the perfect call as we drive to work or prepare dinner. Why has the recording been “buried”, depriving us of that privilege?

    1. Um, maybe because Trump really does NOT want it to be evidence because the “so-called perfect phone call” transcript from the White House has missing information. The military career guy, he was deposed behind closed doors & one of the first string of witnesses)that speaks Ukrainian & was on the call and says that the transcript is not complete. He’s fluent in English and Ukrainian. Trump can barely speak proper English so surely cannot speak another language. Oh wait!! trump is fluent is trumpeeze (Grossly distorting facts to deflect the truth of his crimes)

    1. What the idiots have done to this country isn’t funny it’s deplorable. What will be the final cost to this country for such an egregious act? Trump should be removed from office.

  6. Once you realize that Trump isn’t some “God Emperor” but just a “naked Emperor” instead, it gets much easier to speak up against him…

  7. These witnesses are all extremely brave, patriotic, American heroes! Much, much more patriotic than anyone in “the base”.

  8. Trump not only bribed a foreign leader he destroyed this woman’s career without any consideration for anything but himself and then smeared her good name for no reason. This guy is sick.

    1. It’s just one among many careers, he has managed to destroy so far. Hope he pays dearly for his evil and malice.
