    Project 2025 is reason enough to never vote for another Republican, no matter which office.
  • @BePatient888
    Simple countermeasure, vote the Republicans out.
  • Politico 6/5/24. “Israel targeted more than 120 US lawmakers in disinformation campaign”
  • @shopper735
    I just love the way these people sit there and lie unbelievable. These people are demented.
  • @James-gq4tb
    Republican culture war issues, AKA, things that don’t exist but they are mad about anyways
  • Symone Sanders-Townsend: "Put a ham sandwich on that ballot with an (R) next to it, and repubs would vote for that!" LOL!!
  • What does abortion and trans have to do with the military in the first place? How did these issues ever end up in any bill for the Military ?
  • "There sure is a lot of baloney on that ham sandwich, but that ham sandwich is pretty good on the economy." THAT is what the dems need to be using as the comparison between trump's economy (ham sandwich) and Biden's economy along with some side by side numbers!! then ending with the slogan, "There sure was a LOT of baloney on that ham sandwich!"
  • Note how easy it is to spot the trolls by the childishness, bad grammar and spelling. Even for the most stunningly simpleton comments. And even with spell-check! If I had not seen these people being interviewed by Jordan Klepper, I would swear they were auditioning for Idiocracy 2. "It is better to remain silent at the risk of being thought a fool, than to speak and remove all doubt." - Abe Lincoln? Now watch the fish jump right in the Brawndo barrel. Wait for it ....
  • @dspondike
    Saying that “both sides are the same” is not true because the sides have changed at their core. The opposite of Conservative is Progressive. The opposite of liberal is illiberal. The opposite of democracy is authoritarianism.
  • @wau22
    What can be done about this BS!!! ENOUGH ALREADY
  • @kbstrong429
    You heard the man; We need to Do the Same💯🇺🇸✌🏼
  • @kimmoore863
    Gulp up the lies, that both sides feed you .
  • I’m a republican and will vote a blue down ballot ticket this time. This is not an election for issues. This is for our democracy! VOTE BLUE!
  • No he doesn't need to take cognizance of it ! Sadly😢😢😢😢😢😢😢 And the signing of this international agreement was a serious domestic misstep for the president he could have continued to provide the weapons needed without this agreement! This agreement is not going to be well recieved by the American public who are necessarily weary of more military entanglements..... The cost of any such agreements have cost too many dollars and too many lives.......😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢. This agreement can be vacated by his successor ... Sooooooooo......it guarantees nothing. 😢😢😢😢😢
