Trump’s extreme lies poison any chance for a reasonable discussion

This is 100% correct!

Republicans who stand by and let this toxic bile go unchallenged should be ashamed. Not a single Democrat in Congress wants to release dangerous criminal aliens and savage gang members. Poisoning our discourse like this will have a long-term effect; sadly, it will outlast Trump. https://t.co/m6pcF6J4f8

Background on Michael Cohen

Excellent article on Michael Cohen

It states: “While he has not been charged with a crime, many of his associates have faced either criminal charges or stiff regulatory penalties. That includes partners in the taxi business, doctors for whom he helped establish medical clinics and lawyers with whom he worked.”

Trump makes our allies angry again

Trump made people in France and England angry with remarks about violence in their countries. I hope they weren’t expecting him to tell the truth.

Trump sucks up to dictators and alienates countries that are our friends. This is a dangerous policy that will make us less safe. Why would anyone give confidential intelligence to the US now?

China and the Trump administration are both wrong here

Congrats, you have an all-male panel https://t.co/RQ9PBa6owo

This congressman has not heard Trump lie

Jim Jordan said he has not heard Trump lie. Apparently, some Republicans don’t care about the truth. They won’t do anything to make Trump be honest.

Sad!

Maybe other countries should be worried about American immigrants

As part of Trump’s bigoted anti-immigrant rhetoric, he lies about how much crime they commit. This article points out that “…the United States incarcerates a larger share of its population than any other country.”

Maybe other countries should be worried about taking immigrants from the US!

Sad!
