  5. Let's ignore Hunter Biden's laptop and focus on a possible Coke bottle on Trump's desk. The Libtard media is so messed up. The only thing Coke is good for is cleaning crusty car battery terminals. That stuff is bad for your health even if it's Diet Coke. They've been losing market share to healthier drinks for years.

  6. "Where to buy Jill Biden's head-turning fishnet stockings" !


    Jill Biden looks like some worn out old whore on Independence Avenue.

    Maybe she's trolling for some dick since China Joe prefers sniffing little girls hair and taking naps.

  7. You can tell the Marxist Democrats are in control now.

    The Commies close Liberty Memorial for the upcoming Memorial Day recognition of Veterans.

    Democrats are evil Communists destroying all pride in our country's history.

  8. Fauci is worried the President Trump vaccines will destroy corona virus and the little doctor will no longer be asked to be interviewed on television by his Corporate Media puppet masters.

    So Dr. Joseph Stalin Fauci is now trying to whip up panic regarding the "4th Mutant strain of Covid-19".

    Fauci would know as he provided taxpayer dollars to the Wuhan lab where they created the low-grade biological weapon.

  10. Looks like the all star game pitch fell flat. Why would anyone want to come to a city that has crumbling infrastructure and the highest crime? How embarrassing that people even thought anyone would come here so they chose Denver and that's not saying much either given the fact the democrats just massacred people at a grocery store there.

  11. Speaking of massacre.

    Funny how the mainstream Marxist media has already forgotten that a Democrat Party Islamic terrorist murdered a Capitol policeman last week.

  12. @7:32 Unlike Donald Trump, who came from a Poor Black Family and had to work menial night jobs for decades to gain a GED Diploma, only taking time to come to his Country's Defense in a war in Southeastern Asia that he played a major role in winning, then fighting his way to the top of the cutthroat Real Estate, Casino, Education and Bottled Water Industries by piling success atop success.

    1. Someday you will have to come to the understanding that your stupid, obsessive hatred of Trump is not an argument.

      But in your case, perhaps not.
