Trump lives and loves to promote National and Racial division and hate. He promotes home grown terror groups and will not come out against them as the terrorist and racist people love him . It is a fact

“Those Who Can Make You Believe Absurdities Can Make You Commit Atrocities” Voltaire:

Putin is laughing his way to the bank. Even after we get rid of drumpf our national security secrets are now for sale. Thanks, Republicans voters. Your fascination with a woman's uterus has doomed our nation. May you burn in hell forever.

The Pandemic should have brought the Country together but Trump had other plans.

Defund police example.

The world 🌏 is wearing a 🤬😷 mask 😐 What is wrong with you arrogant Americans (said the entire world) This is so ridiculous Put on a mask Please

I hear that jail is a safe place. He won’t need a mask there either!

Republicans are crazy if they want 4 more years of DomesticTerrorism . So, now we see (1) Governor and now (1) Mayor being threatened; what will it take for non-college educated white Americans to realize Trump is poisonous. He’s a snake 🐍

It’s Kansas.

MSNBC Hoe old the BigGuy, too old to jail? Getoutofchina madeinusa

Where's Hunter? And when is MSNBC going to start covering this story?

Maxine waters instructions to Democrats to attack Trump supporters and nothing.

Queue the blame it on Trump and maybe even white supremacy as motive. Stunned it’s not in the article.

Does he drive a blue PT cruiser?

Cover Hunter Biden scandal

Can't threaten people dum dum

Are wearing seatbelts also tyranny? Is no texting while driving tyranny? We are seeing so many crazed people coming forth because of the tyrant Trump! realDonaldTrump

Trump and GOP should condemn this threat of unlawful violence.

The way these ppl are acting over a mask, you’d think the government was trying to control their reproductive system.

These people need a new hobby. Aside from being a home grown terrorist.
