  1. Our schools are failing our children and young adults. They are being indoctrinated with the political views of the teachers and instructors, instead of getting an education. We as taxpayers must do something to rectify this.

  2. Tie the tax dollars to the individual child and let parents choose where and how they want their children educated. Yes, it is going to force some of the current public schools to shut down, but they need to, they need to be forced to restructure. Throwing more and more money at an already failed system is never the solution and is completely insane. For the record I believe there are a lot of good teachers out there but their hands are tied by a corrupt bureaucratic system… Where good teachers are seldom rewarded and the incompetent ones can never be fired.

    1. Great idea. I am gonna have 12 kids and I can get somewhere between 5000-7000 a year per kid to teach them myself. Plus I can get them to work at the bar for $2 an hour to pay their rent. I got it made! And my kids are gonna be dumber than me! Even better.

  3. It’s called dummying down our society while they convince their minions (the college educated) that they are superior in intelligence over their counterparts. When in reality the so called educated have been effectively brainwashed….we already have re education camps…it is disguised as the “free” public education system.

  4. The fact that socialists are openly running for public office in America — that socialists actually hold public office in Congress — should serve as enough wake up call that the nation’s moral and political compasses are skewed, in dire need of correcting. That it doesn’t only screams this: America’s public school systems have become utter failures.

    1. Thank God none of our troops had bone spurs,that could be fatal or cause brain damage. Just look what it did to Trump.

  5. The impeachment is a fraud we all know that objectively!! Barr and Durham report is the only thing we are waiting for. We are constitutional we want real truth not Democratic garbage.

  6. The truth exposes the raw evil and perversion of the Democratic Party. They will never be a power for good for America again. Shame on all who don’t want to see it…

  7. Thought the WORST thing in Life was Ending Up Alone…Then I saw what Elected Democrats Can Do to ME & My Country.

  8. Its NOT Just these POS Politicians…its the SO CALLED Americans Who Elect them…2nd Civil War!…Unless You REALLY Believe You can convince & change the Minds of the Twisted REAL POS that Support & Elect them….Didn’t think SO…SO You’ll wait until THEY Grant Amnesty & the Ballot Boxes will VOTE Our Country into its eventual Failure & Collapse.

  9. I NEVER SAW 1 Antifa AT THIS RALLY. WHY DIDN’T THEY HAVE ANYTHING TO SAY TO ANYONE HERE? BECAUSE THEY ARE ALL A BUNCH OF CHICKEN SHIT PUNKS THAT WANT TO BEAT UP ON WOMEN AND OLD MEN THAT CAN’T DEFEND THEMSELVES. I GUESS George Soros DON’T HAVE ENOUGH MONEY FOR THEM TO ATTEND THIS ONE OR THEY KNEW WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF THEY TRIED ANYTHING HERE. CHICKEN SHIT LITTLE PUNKS.

  10. Before accusing Biden of “corruption,” Sanders and his campaign repeatedly condemned the presidential frontrunner for failing to take responsibility for his vote on the Iraq War in 2002. At last week’s debate in Iowa, Sanders called it “the worst foreign policy blunder in the modern history of this country.”

  11. The ill will between the Bernie Sanders and Joe Biden camps is only getting worse. On Monday morning, the Sanders campaign shared an op-ed from progressive activist Zephyr Teachout accusing former Vice President Biden of corruption. ‘Middle Class’ Joe Biden has a corruption problem. Biden’s “career was bankrolled by the credit card industry” and that “he did it for his donors.” The Biden campaign “is being bankrolled by a super Pac run by healthcare lobbyists,” and Biden “broke his promise” not to take money from the fossil fuel industry.

  12. Very few Confederate flags were seen. In fact, American flags were the common thread amongst people of all races. And guess what? Almost every single person in Richmond was a law-abiding patriot. They were there to make their voices heard, not to cause a riot or to stir up an issue with law enforcement.

  13. There is absolutely no comparison between the Richmond gun rights rally and the Black Lives Matter riots in Baltimore and NYC. When Freddie Gray died, Black Lives Matter was started and riots broke out across the country. People were blocking roads, staging “sit-ins” and “die-ins.” They failed to listen to police and were extremely disorderl How much damage did people in Richmond cause? Zero. How much looting took place? None. How many people were injured? Zip.

  14. Progressive darling Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) attempted to compare Monday’s peaceful protests to the violent Black Lives Matter riots in Baltimore and New York City. Apparently she failed to see what police had a heavy presence after the death of Eric Garner in NYC and Freddie Gray in Baltimore.

  15. “Improving the Federal environmental review and authorization process will enable infrastructure project sponsors to start construction sooner, create jobs earlier, and fix our Nation’s infrastructure faster while also ensuring that a project’s potential impacts on environmental and community resources are considered and managed throughout the planning process.”

  16. Many infrastructure needs were supposed to be addressed by all that ($787 billion) Obama stimulus money, but most were not. In some cases, dollars were spent foolishly, on projects such as bike lanes, instead of on major, urgently needed transportation needs.

  17. New reports reveal that Frank Biden’s companies received $54 MILLION in taxpayer-funded loans to finance energy projects in Central America‬ ‪Like Hunter, Biden’s brother also had no energy experience.‬ ‪This is a disgrace‬. ‪Will the American MSM ( NBC, ABC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC, PBS ) cover this? AND ‬Get and Read the Next Bestseller Book by Peter Schweizer , { Profiles In Corruption } , on ‘the Biden 5’: Deals in China, Costa Rica, Iraq, Kazakhstan, Russia, Ukraine, and South America !! Also, the other Peter Schweizer books, { Extortion } , and { Secret Empires }. . Spread the Truth to Democrats & Independents in a. Ice way !

    1. Geez, wonder how much Trump Organization made off this presidency? How much have Jared Kushner, his family, and his wife, Ivanka, made from their advisory positions with the WH?

  18. This WHOLE Impeachment is an Unlawful Abuse of Power by the Demigod Democrat Members of the House. A Single Party Impeachment with NO High Crime or ANY Crime for that Matter & NO Misdemeanor.

  19. The Dems had no case, but voted for impeachment anyway; ergo the Dems are clearly motivated by politics to the end, coup. Considering this, don’t we have evidence of a conspiracy in sedition?

  20. The minute someone commits treason and goes against the Constitution of the United States to overthrow a duly elected president they should have their American citizenship removed they should be prosecuted in a Military Tribunal and they should be executed in the first week that they commit the crime not three effing years later

  21. Bernie Sanders literally admitted in an interview before entering Senate courtroom that he wanted to defeat the most dangerous President in history. He admitted to wanting to defeat the President in an impeachment trial instead of an election! How is he not recused from this trial along with Warren and Kloubachar?

  22. FIRST….GOP Witness POS Schiff…2nd..the LYING Whistle Blower…3rd the IG Who Changed the Rules that ALLOWED 2nd & 3rd hand Info as Credible by the Whistleblower…4th The Ukrainian Lawyer Joe Biden had tossed off the Case against Hunter & that Oil/Gas Co. & ALL the Evidence HE Had… Finally Joe Biden.

  23. “After a day of hobnobbing with billionaires in Davos, President Trump publicly revealed that cuts to earned Medicare and Social Security benefits will be on the table as soon as the end of this year,” said Richard Fiesta, executive director of the Alliance for Retired Americans, in a statement. “The cruel irony of this scene cannot be overstated.”

    “While Davos billionaires may not understand the importance of Social Security and Medicare, millions of Americans who rely on the health and retirement benefits they have earned through a lifetime of hard work do,” added Fiesta. “Social Security and Medicare are vital for a secure retirement. Americans pay the highest prescription drug prices in the world. This burden and affording other basic necessities make it harder for retirees to make ends meet. Cutting Social Security and Medicare would be a cruel disaster.”

        1. Absolutely no where in that did Trump say he was doing anything with S.S. He said he was open to discussion and that he thought he could fix it. Big difference from the lie you told. Go read the page yourself you lying idiot.

  24. Hey bot, answer me a question. If the President did not do anything wrong, why not let his advisors testify to his innocence? Why has he told his advisors not to testify?

      1. Because if he were innocent, then his advisors could state that for the record and in front of a jury where, if they lied, they could be in major trouble. But, of course, he isn’t innocent so they won’t testify.

      1. Kraig, yeah, do you know that the investigation is just coming to an end? You want to know why? Because the Justice Dept refused to hand over relevant documents to the Judiciary Committee. The Republicans, at that time, felt that they needed those documents to make a fair decision on who was at fault and to what extent they should be held accountable so they took it to court. Sound familiar? It is what the Dems want in the impeachment trial but the Republicans do not want that to happen just like the Dems 10 years ago. So now you are finding fault with doing that but 10 years ago, when it didn’t concern Trump, it was wrong? Look up the definition of hypocrite.

  25. From middle America to big cities, traffickers are embedded, peddling flesh for profit. Human trafficking is the second-most illicit profit-producing business in the world, upwards of $150 billion a year. Business? Yes, it is a business to these criminal enterprises that are trafficking children, women, and men for sex. Trafficking has moved beyond borders to becoming a criminal trade facilitated by domestic actors. According to the National Human Trafficking Hotline, almost two-thirds of trafficking victims originate in the United States. Trafficking is moving beyond international cartel-based organizations to “Everytown, America.”

    1. “There are several models of trafficking organizations. While there are the cartels and other organized criminal elements engaging in trafficking, there are also small, disaggregated groups trafficking victims in the US. This can be in the form of a gang sanctioned line of business similar to trafficking guns and drugs, it can be a “side hustle” for gang members, it can be a family member trafficking their children or siblings, it can even be an organized ring orchestrated by a doctor.”

      1. The traffickers are essentially using victims as “rental property,” taking in steady profits from the use of their victim’s body. DeliverFund’s Fullilove said, “While prices vary from locale to locale based on demand and the overall costs in the area as well as what customers are able to afford based on the economic situation in a given area, it is fair to say that victims can be sold for $200-$400 per hour and can be sold upwards of 6-10 times a night. This means that for a single victim, a trafficker can potentially earn between $375,000 and $1.25 million per year.”

        1. Sex trafficking victims can be as young as children or in early adulthood. Sometimes these victims are continually victimized from their mid-teens to their early 30s. If we look at labor trafficking, the age spread is even greater. There is no common socioeconomic or racial background of victims; they can come from poor or rich households. The only general commonality for sex trafficking victims is there is a history of some form of abuse in their background, whether that is sexual, physical and/or emotional abuse. This is common in ~95% of victims.”

          1. Victims can be seen in plain sight, screaming on the inside for help but unable to step forward out of fear or conflicting emotions. Trafficking is a form of modern-day slavery happening in all fifty-states and must be addressed by every facet of government, from Congress to City Council. Law enforcement, from state to federal, needs to target the traffickers money and assets to take them out of commission.

  26. Is abortion the killing of an innocent human being? Do Americans have a constitutional and human right to keep and carry firearms to protect themselves and their loved ones? Who is and who is not a rightful resident of our national home? Do illegal migrants have a right to come here and stay here? Or do their numbers imperil our national identity and existence as “one nation and one people”?

  27. Perhaps the greatest manifestation of civil disobedience today is the illegal presence of between 12 million and 20 million immigrants who broke into our country or are breaking the law by being here after their visas expired.
    “Sanctuary cities” have been created where local and state authorities refuse to cooperate with immigration enforcement. Now, towns, cities and counties are creating “Second Amendment sanctuaries,” where laws restricting gun rights will not be enforced. If state and local police, themselves gun owners, stand with those who defy the new state laws on guns, who enforces the new laws?

  28. Statement for the Record of Senator Charles E. Schumer
    The Trial of the President
    February 11, 1999
    Mr. President, this is a day of solemnity and awe. I rise humbled that we are participating in a process that was mapped out more than 200 years ago by the Founding Fathers and that the words we say today will be looked upon by historians and future Congresses for guidance. That is quite a responsibility.
    I began this process in the House where it degenerated quickly into bitter acrimony. I would like to say to Majority Leader [Trent] Lott and Minority Leader [Tom] Daschle, and to my new colleagues who have wrestled with this case, that I deeply appreciate your fairness and patience and the way this has been handled with such dignity in the Senate.
    Growing up, our country and its government seemed like a mighty oak — strong, rooted, permanent, and grand.
    It has shaken me that we stand at the brink of removing a President — not because of a popular groundswell to remove him and not because of the magnitude of the wrongs he’s committed — but because conditions in late 20th century America has made it possible for a small group of people who hate Bill Clinton and hate his policies to very cleverly and very doggedly exploit the institutions of freedom that we hold dear and almost succeed in undoing him.

    1. Lindsey Graham said President “Richard Nixon made himself subject to impeachment the day he failed to answer a congressional subpoena.”

    2. Chuck Grassley, senator from Iowa
      Then (Clinton Impeachment): “We are here because the president did wrongful acts and he admits to that…[O]nce you lose your moral authority to lead, you are a failure as a leader. FDR once spoke of the Presidency in this way: ‘The Presidency is not merely an administrative office…It is preeminently a place of moral leadership.'” More than 20 women have credibly accused Trump of sexual misconduct.

      Now(Trump impeachment): “Democrats’ impeachment proceedings are rooted in animus, a lack of rights for the accused, no transparency and anger at the 2016 election results.”

    3. Lindsey Graham, congressman-turned-senator from South Carolina

      Then: “Impeachment is about restoring honor and integrity to the office,” said Graham, who served as one of the House’s impeachment masters during the Clinton proceedings. “You don’t even have to be convicted of a crime to lose your job in this constitutional republic if this body determines that your conduct as a public official is clearly out of bounds in your role.”

      Now: “This is a lynching, in every sense.”

  29. Oh yes, how convenient that the majority of the people interviewed to bash this rally are mindless liberal students. It’s the confederacy of idiots, folks. History didn’t repeat because again, the VCDL doesn’t organize Nazi rallies. It never has. It never will. People who support gun rights aren’t white nationalists either. And if this is the latest smear against gun owners from liberals, then our side has truly won.

  30. Since there was no violence whatsoever at the gun rights rally in Richmond, Virginia on Monday, CBS Evening News apparently decided to make-up some fake news and claim there was. As fill-in anchor Maurice DuBois began discussing the event, he falsely claimed there was “more than a week” of “violence” leading up to the rally. But back in reality, there wasn’t. CNN and MSDNC did their part as well about white nationalists descending into Richmond, except that they didn’t:

  31. CNN: Threats which caused Gov. Northam to call for a State of Emergency “Have simply not emerged”.. “The police very clear in saying they have not had a single arrest during this rally

  32. *Amazing Young Black Woman at Gun Rights Rally Says Democrats Had 60 Years…Sick Of Them Putting Illegal Aliens First

  33. 8The world has been warming up since the Ice Age. Global warming is a ploy to get your money and in 500 years time the people alive at that time will say that was “The Stupid Age”

  34. *Average global temperature has not increased during the last decade. Climate scientists are saying some of the claims about global warming were exaggerated. See YT Climate Scientists Jump Ship as CO2 Theory Collapses & Climate Scientists Laugh at Global Warming Hysteria on 1000folly channel. Over much of Earth’s history back to 500 million years ago CO2 was between 1000ppm- 3000ppm.

  35. *The UN was set up by international bankers, as was its predecessor the League of Nations. These people have a decades long plan to introduce a new world order (as spoken of by President Bush Sr.) of a one world government. Climate change (formerly called global warming before temperatures started falling in the last decade) is an idea used to push forward greater one world governmental control, since the ‘crisis’ requires a global response.

  36. *It’s a scam, follow the money re the carbon credits market. It’s been great for governments who raise carbon taxes not to use to cut down carbon emissions but to go into the general coffers. Was started by a Canadian millionaire Maurice Strong in the 50’s. Look at one of it’s greatest exponents Al Gore, he’s coining in millions from this scam through carbon credit exchange. Snake Oil salesmen one and all!!

  37. *America….Were witnessing HISTORY!!!…. Granted No Where in the Constitution does it State a Sitting President CAN’T be Impeached for LESS than a High Crime or Misdemeanor. Thankfully Our Pelosi lead House Democrats are showing US How a Solely Single Party Vote from HERE On OUT ….that ANY & ALL Presidents Can Be ALSO! Wonder IF Our Founding Fathers would be Proud & that THIS was their intent?

  38. *America…In as much as it should Be Unlawful that only by a Simple Majority a SINGLE Party can Impeach Trump or ANY Prez. In this Case on the Plus Side at least these Goofy Democrat BASTARDS aren’t actually in Session doing their Jobs WAY too busy trying to Impeach than trying to Screw Up America with the Stupid Indentity, Socialism/Communism & Facist Politics that they believe IN.

  39. I can’t believe anyone, especially a person in Pelosi’s position would hate someone so much that she flushed her own reputation down the toilet. She must have shrinkage of the brain or something like Alzheimer’s.

  40. This is not an impeachment, it’s fear! They’re terrified because we’re winning! Thanks Republicans for standing behind our legally elected President of the United States of America!

  41. Americans need to fire Pelosi, Schiff and many more Democrats that are simply not doing their job and spending our tax dollars for these stupid trials first judge Kevin Kavanaugh what a spectacle that was and since President Trump took office they have been trying to take him down since his campaigning days!! ENOUGH IS ENOUGH WE AMERICANS ARE FED UP WITH ALL THIS GARBAGE !!!

  42. I feel sure Nancy felt the trial was serious and that in choosing Schiff she chose the best they had. He is the biggest liar of the Democrats, he is as ungodly as they come, he is a stain on our Government, a corrupt politician and loyalist to Nancy and not to our Nation. Pelosi was serious enough to inject into the trial the most openly flagrant violations and violators of corruption she could find who would bow to her will and abominable ways.

  43. *The only thing Nutty Nancy takes serious is getting her drink on, getting richer and being the best LIAR she can be!

  44. *In total, between 2009 and the end of the Obama administration, Frank Biden’s Caribbean projects benefited from more than $54 million in U.S. taxpayer loans. The loans, though, are not the only example of Frank Biden’s business interests intersecting with his brother’s political influence, as Profiles in Corruption reveals.

  45. *When President Barack Obama entered the White House, he set out to mend fences in the region in hopes of inaugurating a new era of global cooperation. Leading the charge on that front was Joe Biden, who had long standing ties to the region from his tenure leading the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. Shortly after the new administration took office, Frank Biden began scouting real estate opportunities in Costa Rica. A lawyer by training, Frank was undeterred by his lack of background in international development and decades old legal troubles at home.

  55. The tinfoil hat wearers, the faction that includes moon-landing deniers and the kind of crackpots William F. Buckley Jr. and Russell Kirk expelled from mainstream conservatism, has set its sights on derailing the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact. The Compact is the constitutionally conservative agreement that guarantees 270 electoral votes and the presidency to the candidate who wins the most individual votes across all 50 states and the District of Columbia. Fifteen states and the district have already passed the compact, giving the measure 196 of the 270 Electoral College votes necessary for it to take effect. With momentum for reform building in New Hampshire, one pundit is actually suggesting that the Granite State defy federal law, specifically section 3, title 3 of the U.S. code — a provision in effect since 1887 — to throw a monkey wrench into the final nationwide tally for president. This particularly nutty idea would involve New Hampshire refusing to submit the state’s official vote count until after electors meet to officially determine the new president and vice president in the December following an election. Without a final national popular vote tally, the reasoning goes, the president and vice president could not be legally certified. One can only imagine federal marshals breaking down the door of the N.H. Secretary of State’s office to secure the vote ledger. Why are you so afraid of the United States Constitution?

    1. Under article 2, section 1, the Framers specifically granted state legislatures the right to allocate their electoral votes in any manner they see fit. The 16 jurisdictions that have passed the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact bill have done so under the full authority of the Constitution. Did the Founders get it wrong? Why are you so afraid of the American people? Why are you so afraid of including and empowering small states and rural states that are all but ignored under the current system? Why are you so afraid of a boost in nationwide voter turnout?

  56. AOC’s pea sized brain cannot comprehend the fact that gun rights activists aren’t violent people. They were there to show that their second amendment rights will not be infringed upon. Racism has nothing to do with it. People of all color, from all backgrounds, as well as men and women were there to show support for gun rights.

  57. The people protesting the threat of losing their Second Amendment Right are peaceful and of no threat to anyone. The people protesting the “black lives matter” movement are a threat, a violent group, and police need to be present in riot gear.

  58. The cops knew the folks there for their gun rights are not the troublemakers. They also know the trouble in Charlottesville was caused by the leftists.

    1. If that’s true, then why are they in full combat gear, with their faces covered, carrying signs with hateful messages? This is the new look of the KKK, which even Trump admits was 100% responsible for the chaos at Charlottesville.

  59. Funny how their mistakes are all mathematized and shown as infinitesimal in impact; however, a few Russian ad buys on Facebook and those “Macedonian Troll Farms” cost Hilarious Clinton her rightful place as POTUS.

  60. Joe Biden sucks it up with Robert Byrd, the leader of the KKK. Democrats say Trump is a racist, he’s done more for blacks than Obama did.

  61. Amazing Young Black Woman at Gun Rights Rally Says Democrats Had 60 Years…Sick Of Them Putting Illegal Aliens First
    That’s probably the most powerful statement right there. Too many Democrats, especially black people, don’t realize that the KKK was Democrats, not Republicans. I have even encountered people who truly thought Abraham Lincoln was a Democrat because he freed the slaves. It’s time that the truth becomes widely known.

        1. Simple.
          “One historian confirmed there’s a historic link between the Democrats and the KKK: Many angry Southern whites during the 1860s and 1870s were Democrats, and some joined the KKK. But according to J. Michael Martinez, who wrote the 2007 book “Carpetbaggers, Cavalry and the KKK,” it’s misleading to say the Democratic Party founded the Klan.
          It was a more of a grassroots creation, Martinez said. Plus, the Democratic Party of the past is not the Democratic Party of today. From the 1930s onward, “you think of the Democratic Party being considered the party of the disenfranchised,” he said.”

  62. UNTIL WE Demand & Impose Term Limits the REAL TRASH in DC…are Elected for LIFE…546 Little POS like Mao,Hitler, Stalin & WHOLE List of others. It ALLOWS a Single Party to Impeach with NO Crimes let alone HIGH Crimes or Misdemeanor. PLEASE Democrats on the Coast & Big Cities continue us on the PATH to a 2nd Civil War.

  63. They stood up and there were thousands of people. It’s time to stand together with the same mindframe people for our rights and freedoms. Let the fools bury the fools! Keep on keepin on for the truth in America and for our God.

  64. Virginia….Dont CRY to Us…Ya’ll can STFU!…After 8yrs of Obama & the Democrat SINGLE Party Vote that Destroyed Our Health Care System & created the Govt ONLY Loan System for College. Why WE Now have the Current Democrat ONLY SINGLE Party Impeachment Scam & somehow YOUR Shocked..Dumb Founded that in 18 Helping SCREW the Rest of America by Handing the House BACK to those SAME POS Democrats. You also decided Locally to Elect DEMOCRATS who have & ALWAYS Will want toTake Your GUNS. They are Socialist,Communist & Facist & Believe IT Like ISIS does the Koran. Just like Hitler,Stalin, Mao & They Know Full WELL as Long as WE have Our Guns they can’t Totally RULE US…which is the REAL GOAL! America is ON That Path…TY

  65. And remember how the liberals immediately railed on President Trump that he was not doing enough. Once again playing the fake “we’re the party that has compassion on the less fortunate” card.

    1. we were supposed to think Trump was unfortunate? Why, because he ran for president and called all of his opponents names, and called their wives names, and in some cases, called one of their fathers a traitor? And yet they come back and grovel at his feet now that he is king! His son makes vile, dishonest and demeaning remarks to people he considers enemies, and makes those statements in public and nobody cares, yet the previous president’s 16 year old gets caught smoking and the right pouts that he is a poor father. Or was it his wife posed nude a number of times when she was younger and that is ok because she was just looking for honest work but another president’s wife actually does things rather than pout all day long and she is a bitch because of it. Yeah, he is so unfortunate. Or that unfortunate fact his daddy gave him millions of dollars to start off in life and he doesn’t pay taxes but that is ok because he takes taxes out of their salaries so he does pay taxes? That kind of unfortunate? Or that he runs the presidency like a reality show so that his fans aren’t disappointed and continue to support his program? Or unfortunate that the Republicans had no body else who was good enough to run a decent campaign and challenge his sorry ass? You are a moron.

      1. We as a country are unfortunate because we didn’t get to see what Hillary could have done for us. I like the unemployment numbers, the 401k’s values, the gas prices, the wall and on and on

        1. The number of people who are not working is about the same as it was during the Obama years. Remember when your esteemed leader would say that the unemployment numbers were fake news? Now, he believes them. The labor force participation rate is higher now than in 2014 and it is going up.

  66. It is completely dishonest to think the corruption and tax laws are only applicable to one party. This is why there are elitist politicians on both sides that are vehemently against Trump because he is taking on what they see is their business model- robbing taxpayers with no accountability.

  67. In other words, raise the costs of goods and services to appeal to the ignorant. Great plan,Steyer! You might wish to consult Thomas Sowell’s excellent book, “Basic Economics”.

  68. I watched an interview with this man and when asked why spending so much money on his campaign he said I will spend as much as I need to get Trump out of office. WRONG ANSWER MIKE!! A Presidential candidate should tell me what he is going to make better or change for the good of America. Sorry Mike but you failed big time. GO TRUMP 2020!

  69. If elected i’ll give everyone 20% tax cut and $2000 a month to anyone over 18. I support this message. Sound about right? Welcome to democrats give away and buy off’s. Typical. Sorry Tom Steyer, you fell short.

  70. Little Mini Mike needs to take his step stool and go somewhere else…..like China where he has had strong ties.

    1. Yeah, he can go visit doddering Terry Branstad, who sold Iowa to China and got rewarded with a palace there. Traitor.

  71. He is a evil sick billionaire that could choose to do good with his money instead he wants the United States to be a country he can rule as the Evil King .. So when he can’t have his way he will try to destroy our President .. Bloomberg is just another Evil corrupt human .

    1. Had me fooled there for a while bot. I thought you had finally come to your senses and saw Trump for what he really was.
