      Remove his passport.
      Take possession of his plans. Put a GPS tracker on his fat ankle.
      Have the trial, and fit him for a orange jumpsuit. Made by omar the tent maker.

      And YES. !! Democrat Politicians and their voters are just filthy trash. !! Their STENCH IS OVERWHELMING AND PUTRID to the American people. !!

  1. trump’s tactics are similar to Jim Jones’ in a lot of ways….he and his followers wanted to escape from their imaginary, perceived enemies, so they fled to Jonestown and created their own little bubble. and we all know how that ended…

    1. But we were told by the Governors of California, Washington and Oregon it was Climate Change that caused these fires : Authorities arrest 4 in connection to possible arson, fires along West Coast

      Oregonian -Four have been arrested on suspicion of arson in West Coast areas already under seige from major destructive and deadly blazes, according to Fire Officials’ reports.

      As wildfires continue to rage across three states, police investigated separate incidents near existing wildfires. Two men in Washington state, one man in Oregon and one woman in California are facing charges, according according to the LA Times

      The latest reports suggest that at least 20 people have died in California, eight in Oregon and one in Washington state as firefighters struggle to contain already deadly fires.

      Guess what else these three Governors have in common…..wait for it…..uncontrolled rioting/looting and they are Democrats

      We are still waiting for CNN to blame Climate Change for Coronavirus and teen pregnancies.

    2. Jim Jones was a monster. If trump were to do this he would be a great American hero for ridding the world of the most destructive person post ww2 and his cult herd before they become “white ISIS”

    3. John PrivateLastName So true! This administration has revealed how many new laws and constitutional amendments we need. Hopefully the lessons won’t be forgotten or ignored. We must take action to prevent these crimes and blatant corruption from happening again. God save Democracy! / Socialism-because it takes the balance of both for for either to work. Example: Social Security is important to our civilized “society “. We don’t want cake, we want food!

    1. @Charles Migliore All they really want is free money and hand outs forever. What a sad and pathetic time in America.

    2. @President of the Virgin Islands Interesting. Have you considered https://www.rand.org/blog/2020/01/artificial-intelligence-and-the-manufacturing-of-reality.html ? I’d like to believe your analysis of the numbers, but it’s also possible we are truly fekked

      “In 2016, a third of surveyed Americans told researchers they believed the government was concealing what they knew about the “North Dakota Crash,” a conspiracy made up for the purposes of the survey by the researchers themselves. This crash never happened, but it highlights the flaws humans carry with them in deciding what is or is not real.”

    1. @Blue Hungary, Poland, Belarus, Russia, Turkey and others are not democracies but the USA should be, in essence, an example and not a laughing stock with this person in charge. Research it.

    2. Living below sea level, or on a fault line, or in dry drought hot areas, or on the coast, or in a desert, or…… Where is a safe place to live? Climate, plague, racism , and government corruption deniers will be the end of humans. Look around and wake Up! Look at what is happening, not what government says is happening. You want truth? Go to a hospital. Go to the 12 states and many countries ( yes countries) that are burning. Go to a protest. Then go to an unmasked rally. Trust me, you don’t want to die from the inability to breath. All of these conditions make it hard to breath. These truths make me sad. Please see.

    1. @Tronald J. Dump It would be mutually beneficial for all ..this is what you won’t see if Biden is elected .

    2. Charles Migliore first there is no mutually beneficial for all. Mutual is two partys. And why can’t you elaborate? What would be beneficial for all? The fall of nato? How is that beneficial? Most here are not trump supporters so one little dumb line where you say ABSOLUTELY NOTHING is not going to get you the pats on the back you so desire…. say SOMETHING or say NOTHING.

    3. @JustJ WhoIsAsking just because Trump didn’t say he was a loser to his face doesn’t mean he didn’t say it. Feel bad for that soldier who doesn’t realize it.

    1. That Trump enablers and supporters believe this Lyin’ King kind of brings to mind a line from Orwell’s dystopian novel 1984:
      – – – > “The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.”

    2. You cant tell me Joe & Kamala are the best candidates the Democrats can offer, you have to be blind not to see how bad they are!

  2. And unfortunately his Zombie deplorables believe every single lie that the Orange thing tells . Just read through the comments and it is easy to spot the Zombie Deplorables .

    1. The only zombies here will be you since we will be fed and you will try and Do try very hard to feed on Us ….

    2. @Jason m Yeah. I bailed after a few minutes trying not to fall completely into this god-awful political cesspool. Have a nice life!

  3. Trump’s small, shriveled brain is in it’s own reality.
    In Trump’s reality, he is successful, powerful, and without faults.
    The opposite of the real world.

    1. @esj8341 It’s also quite obvious that if you have a lot of money and powerful political connections, you can easily “influence” the American judicial system to your favor.

    2. John Matthews… He paid out of pocket and with contributions and he has yet to take a salary instead donating his every year. He has played a little golf at HIS resorts but not played as much as Obama and who the taxpayer payed for. Mexico did not pay, that is true, although they are paying for the military at their own Southern border which has helped(I am currently in Mexico at my 2nd home), raking leaves is reference to forest management that has been a problem since the big fire 100 years ago in California. The undergrowth is the major problem, that and arson. Obamacare is a true disaster and at least the mandates are gone but unless you have it, which I guarantee you don’t, you have no room to talk. COVID is a political hoax and China is at fault, not Trump. He was fast with shutting down flights to Chine late January while Biden and Nancy called that move Xenophobic, rapidly organizes a public private force to deal with the problem…I watched every single COVID afternoon update from the beginning with CDC et al…Did you watch those? This is unprecedented and really the greatest help would have been CDC and NIH teaching the public about hygiene through the years after lesser endemics. It’s very infectious but low mortality in fact for those under 40 it’s a lower mortality than Influenza. Over 40, if you are obese or diabetic or other self inflicted disease, you could be at risk. Only 6% of over 60 infected had no apparent underlying disease although every human over 60 is closer to death than birth. The caravans were real…Mexico is now stopping those at their southern border.

    1. @democrats are anti American democrats hate America if you based your entire username on making your inept point, why would anyone take you seriously? You are clearly unstable

  4. Don’s always “lived” in his own World. In my World people “believe” in “radical” concepts like Science, honor, truth, and decency.

    1. When a leader denies truth, such as denying that there is SYSTEMIC RACISM in USA, you learn the leader is not seeing the truth.

    2. Destroying democracy is the intent. This is happening in many countries. Research it. Stop being a follower, and find the truth.

    3. TWOFAST4U 2015 😂😂😂😂😂 wow what a comment. Now stop watching “Fake News” and go watch Trumps twitter feed. People like you is why Hitler rose to power. Your so deep in the MAGA Cult you have betrayed your own country. Let me guess it’s all “Fake”. 😂

      Vote to Save America Vote Biden Vote Blue 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸. The Blue Shift is coming. Our movement is huge.

    1. @Del Pietro That’s the sad truth. Republican tribalism keeps Trump in power. They’d rather keep a stupid madman as President than turn against one of their own.

    2. Never underestimate free capitalism and its successors who will by any means necessary keep what they have earned either ….

    3. Research Dominionism. It’s what’s behind all of this. We are closer to becoming a Theocracy than I ever imagined.

    1. Neal H. …… ✅✅✅ If your not afraid of working for a living …… The American dream is real and before the CHINESE released THEIR VIRUS .
      The economy was booming and THE AMERICAN DREAM was booming also.
      THE AMERICAN DREAM IS COMING BACK AS WE SPEAK BECAUSE TRUMP CAN AND IS BRINGING US BACK ON TRACK .
      🇺🇸👨ORANGE MAN 2020 👨🇺🇸
      TRUMPS OVER 320 ACCOMPLISHMENTS IN LESS THAN 4 YEARS.
      BIDEN HAS NO NOTABLE ACCOMPLISHMENTS IN 47 HEARS AND 8 OF THEM WERE AS VICE PRESIDENT.
      HERE IS TRUMPS …….WHERE IS CHINA JOES ?

    1. Our founders created a government that is supposed to be ruled by the governed through their elected representatives. It is not legally supposed to be a police state where a president orders the execution of those who disagree with him. Trump bragged how he had US marshalls execute a man. Constitutionally, the accused have a presumption of INNOCENCE until proven guilty by 100% of a jury of his peers.

    2. @Jake The “police state” you describe is very similar to the “feudal system” I described… i.e., Trump’s “delusion of grandeur”.

    3. For losers who dont have a winners plan .. YES .. Remember its PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS .. It never read you any Guarantees .. that’s solely Up to YOU.

    1. The old adage holds true: the fish rots from the head down. tRump’s administration is corrupt and complicit in all his criminal deeds.

    2. @Elias Ziad Democrats never sent anthrax to newspaper buildings, or opposite political party members or anyone that doesn’t agree with them. Republican members have shot up synogages, churches, driven over people, now make excuses for a president that allowed thousands to die on his watch. Picking and choosing which states received medical equipment according to party lines. You’re party always screws over the citizens.

    3. @Elias Ziad No not at all- trump is, and him hiring Michael Caputo is living proof. If you are even an American, and if you don’t know who Caputo is, or what evil that man can create then you had best read up- there are many reports. Going back to 2014 when trump & caputo first started working together, and caputo’s life in Russia working with putin, for starters.

    4. @Decubinese Doggett – There were 4 presidential assassins whose politics we know were democrat, who actually assassinated a president. Your info probably came from the msm and you blindly accepted it. IT’S FALSE!!

    1. Or the latest one: climate change effects will ‘magically’ get better in the cold. I like the fact that he consistently like to use fancy adjectives – “tremendous” – probably the most used one 😂.

    1. Im betting your between 17 & 27 yrs of age. You listen to 2nd hand news and that becomes your reality!! Do the research!

    2. @Sooner Magic Thunder Rules, I bet “you are” not even from this country. or you failed “your ” grammar school.
