BeschlossDC What is realDonaldTrump if not a traitor? He betrayed not only the people who elected him but those who did not and the world.

keenanls BeschlossDC trump is also a traitor to the country. That’s why he supports keeping confederate monuments up. It’s not a coincidence.

BeschlossDC Next they're going to want to change the name United States of America.

BeschlossDC Let him veto the bill.. we can use the money elsewhere right now.

BeschlossDC We should not have a fort AP Hill or a Fort Bragg.

BeschlossDC Rt

BeschlossDC Trumps’ a traitor. He feels in good company with the men of the confederate statues.

BeschlossDC Perverted lies! Steal at least on expenses. This is how Rockefeller lives now!

BeschlossDC whats outrageous is that the people that demand these changes wouldn't spend 1 cent of their own money, only demand for us to pay for something we don't even want done,and they won't stop there, the sky is the limit if we keep giving in.

BeschlossDC Tell Him He Needs To Take History Classes!! I Don’t Think He Listen To The Teachers!!

BeschlossDC In fairness, if he looses his base, it's over. He is a grudge based person. He has to force people to choose sides.

BeschlossDC Where was all this contrived outrage about statues decades ago. They were traitors 150 years ago but these Johnny come latelies weren’t out protesting for their removal. It’s all about making Trump look bad & nothing about statues. They could have protested under Clinton & Obama

BeschlossDC I concur

BeschlossDC Which is why you pushed to change it during the last president, or the one before that, or that, or that, etc. STFU and cut back on the soy bruddah.

BeschlossDC “These are people who were traitors to this country.”? Sir I’m sure you meant mean trump himself?

BeschlossDC

BeschlossDC History could not have foreseen a second president of the Confederacy.

BeschlossDC TraitorTrump supports traitors !!! MAGA !!! LOL !!!

BeschlossDC Trump only likes the best traitors.

BeschlossDC 💥I stand with the president the mob does not rule!💥

AudreyGarden BeschlossDC So is trump.

BeschlossDC Some could say the same thing about a lot of people in congress right now.

BeschlossDC Maybe Congress needs to start tighten the flow of money to the executive branch. Pelosi did threaten to cut Bill Barrs budget. Did she?

BeschlossDC What's he gonna do about? What can do!? Nothing!! Just complains... no action(rioters)!?

BeschlossDC The bases also now hold different meanings and legacies of their own that have nothing to do with the confederates or have any racial connotation.

Snarkolicious BeschlossDC A traitor protecting the names of traitors for his deplorable votes. Maybe they will even hold back voting for a man who knows our military are targets for bountys as he cuddles up with the guy who offered them. There must be a few patriots in the group. Many were in the military

BeschlossDC The Confederacy has no desire to conquer D.C. They just wanted to secede and become their own country. You know, like you’re gonna celebrate today.

BeschlossDC “Outrageous” is the new “fucked up”

BeschlossDC Absolutely veto that bitch let them liberals cry.

BeschlossDC This man is no historian! 😂 that’s the funniest thing I’ve heard today ! Historian 😂

BeschlossDC So if Trump is a traitor to the USA, but we are told that the USA is a racist and evil country that needs to be completely transformed then surely that makes Trump the good guy?

BeschlossDC Trumps been going after Epstein over for 15 years

BeschlossDC The nazis did the same thing you dimocrats are doing. STOP IT!

BeschlossDC Traitor is a word dear to Kremlin stooge realDonaldTrump. Ain’t that right Ghislaine Maxwell’s best friend?

BeschlossDC So, you've got one traitor fighting for the other traitors, not exactly rocket science. hes already killed 130,000 plus.

BeschlossDC I love how Donald Trump doesn’t actually know what words mean. Just keep him talking about himself until he can he physically removed from office.

BeschlossDC Boo hoo

BeschlossDC Outstanding, if you don’t like it, where was your big behinds, during Obama as President. I seriously doubt, he of of changed the names of bases and allowed statues being forcefully removed. You people had lost your minds.

BeschlossDC Congress can override him.

BeschlossDC views

BeschlossDC Trump won't stand up for our soldiers in the military now but he will stand up for dead traitors. smh

BeschlossDC Lord in heaven .. he only says things to get people riled up. Quit taking the bait.

BeschlossDC yeah no kidding why do you think he identifies with them

BeschlossDC Not supporting our troops (LITERALLY) to support traitors to the USA. This is a winning campaign message! Go for it!

BeschlossDC TRUMP IS A TRAITOR,

BeschlossDC You're smart enough to know their 1st allegiance was to their State, not the Federal gov't. My Confederate ancestors were traitors in the same degree as my ancestors who fought in the American Revolution were traitors against England.

BeschlossDC So is Donald Trump, so it makes sense. 🙃🤬

BeschlossDC Get your casket now from Trump’s funeral home and cemetery for only $19,995 with free shipping. Confederate money 💰 only. This is a limited time offer

BeschlossDC Holding America hostage. Again. The old Quid Pro Quo. Again.

BeschlossDC It's about time he tells the screaming toddler NO!!! You can't have everything you want children. Someone needs to take a paddle to your ass.

BeschlossDC Americans are traitors against England, right?

BeschlossDC Trump claims to be a right-wing nationalist with absolute authority. Definition of FASCISM is NOUN an authoritarian and nationalistic right-wing system of government.“Nazism as a form of fascism, with disdain for liberal democracy and the parliamentary system” VOTE 4ourprogeny

BeschlossDC Those are his people. If they tear down the statues of dead traitors, what happens to live ones when they leave office?

BeschlossDC

BeschlossDC all I can say is BeschlossDC is going to be a very busy man for the next bunch of years following Jan. 20, 2021 documenting all the screw ups and failings of the trump administration. So much so he won't be able to pay attention to the Biden administration.

BeschlossDC

BeschlossDC and yet you can't make a connection as to why he would veto it?

Study should proceed on renaming military bases regardless of Trump’s veto threat: Sen. Tim Scott'We should have a study of those bases and why they were named,' Scott said. A study, like, Google it?
