How this Billionaire Trump conned the working class into thinking he was on their side is baffling. The working class will soon experience massive buyer’s remorse.

Didn't the GOP kick out the last speaker because they wanted to raise the debt ceiling?

[Das-Boot-bmk]

DJT is americas biggest embarrassment!

[maggiereeder]

Mad respect for Timothy Snyder! He's right! A 'shadow government' with the message of 'this is what it COULD look like' is the way to win big in the mid-terms.

Quit talking about musk as if he belongs in the govt. Talk instead about musk being in the USA as an illegal immigrant who has no business in our govt. and needs to be deported.

Brilliant idea from Tim Snyder. The best way forward to survive the emotional and mental stress of the next years.

Wanting a German-like Right is scary. I dealt in depth about the time leading upto 1933 til 1945 .I still hear my Mother and grandmother say “Never again”.

Nancy did Mike Johnson's job-- the hardest job in the world, per Mikey--a helluva lot better than he can do it, and without a Leon Muck crutch.

[Aliens-ff]

This is going to be a government of families and relatives.

I can't believe that Americans will be enjoying the chaos in a few months when we're ALL losing.

[lauriesinclair]

Everyone I know who has given up on mainstream news is still watching Lawrence. He is the ONLY one we still watch. Lawrence is Not afraid of the repercussions of telling the truth in the Trump world, and he understands politics better than any of the journalist out there. Thank you, Lawrence! 👏👏👏

If Speaker is 2nd in line to the presidency, don’t they have to be a native-born American?

[Järgengärblbärgeler-qub]

All Republican women look like mid-priced trade.

10:50. I hope that Prof. Snyder is wrong when he says that things will look even worse in six months. Let's hope that, by then, the in-fighting will have split Trump's coterie.

[Pollytics]

Musk made a fool of trump 😂 he wasn't going to way in and then he asks for a debt increase and gets zip 😂😂😂 makes trump look weak😂😂😂

[ceciliahink]

Thankyou Lawrence O'Donnell for this great news, Thankyou for the republicans that put Musk and Trump in their place! Musk should pack his sleeping bag and go home!!!😮
