This can't happen in America folks!

Democracy has to stand!

[luigiquerusio]

When are Democrats going to wake up and start telling this country what the Republican fascists are doing?

[joserobles]

Most of the lovers of democracy know that as long as trump and his enablers receive no punishment for the damages they have done to our country, our Democracy will be in danger.

[paulespinoza]

How long is the GOP going to tolerate Trump. Can’t they think for themselves or are they ever looking for someone to lead them be the nose. I am very disappointed at a take I have to admit to myself: That many, many of my friends aren’t as free-thinking as I ever thought them to be.

[robertjohnson]

And Tucker Carlson is molding their simple minds to accept it. Jesus

[lydiajohnson]

The DOJ needs to step up and charge Trump before the midterm. Trump must never ever hold any office in the United States ever again.

[betipinyoburayang]

He dreams to president for life if not King of the Kingdom of the United States of America. And he hinted to it many times during his term.

[DylanStarr]

I just don’t understand these Republican leaders! Why would any of them be OK with having someone having that kind of power over them! For one’s quality of life I think that would be kind of a miserable existence

[ardenmcconnell]

PRESIDENT Joe Biden - Quietly doing his job
NO crazy tweets, NO lying, NO whining,
NO insults, NO racist rhetoric, NO blaming
NO bragging, NO complaining, NO hate speech, NO racism, NO crimes, NO love of Stalin, Hitler, and Putin.

[morrishinethe]

What I don’t understand. He should be automatic going to jail.

[YZW]

Donnie is the alpha Karen. He never stops whining.

[millieg]

All this is spot on! Pay attention folks!! This does matter!!

[ciskaverster]

Jeez America i am so sorry you are being torn apart like this. I dont live in your country but I've worked with people all over your country for a year...
You have the same concerns!!
You have the same loves!!
You have 100% the same desires!!
You are being torn apart by your enemies!!
Please see who your real enemies are.
Please.
If you can't, who can?

[gangstarapmademedoit]

Wasn’t it around $250M when he left office? But then again hasn’t he paid himself like $90k a month rent for empty offices in trump towers

[fiascofosho]

Surely he will be in prison for all the division and hatred he has been capable of causing in a cult he and his cronies created.

[marioperreault]

A loser is a loser, he can’t accept defeat, so is Trump!

[Longtack]

Granny said "A fool and his money are soon parted if they donate to Mr Trump."

[garytrujillo]

Imagine being a 70 year old man who's never worked a day in his life and has the mentality of a 16 year old. What a bizarre man.

[davidleaman]

Corrupt money is attracted to corruption like opposite poles on a magnet.

[flodareltih]

IQ45: The Loser of Year Award is rigged unless I win. Frankly, I did win the award in 2020 and I wouldn’t mind winning it again for my third straight time
