Trump no longer is a problem, he's an absolute threat to Democracy. And he doesn't care what anyone thinks.

Why is it so important for those politically linked to Trump to refuse the fact that the officer who shot Renee Good was completely in the wrong? What did Trump ever do for anyone but himself.

So, the next time your 8-year-old won't eat his or her spinach and sasses you, the right thing to do is punch the kid in the face three times. Is that what you're saying?

The fact that Donald Trump will not denounce Putin tells you everything thing you need to know about Trump's lack of character.

Listen to Minneapolis mayor Jacob Frey speak and then listen to Trump and you have to ask who is more presidential.

This nation is teetering on the brrink, just ask yourself what it was like before and since Trump. Anybody who will beg for a Nobel Peace Prize, sends ICE goons into our nation's cities and threatens countries has to have a screw loose.

If the ICE agent who shot Renee Good shot in self defense, then Jack Ruby wouldn't have spent a day in jail for shooting Lee Harvey Oswald.

Don't frown in the company of ICE, that's a capital offense.

If Noem or anyone who looks at the Good shooting calls that domestic terrorism, people don't have a chance. ICE is being given an outright permission to kill for the slightest provocation.

Since when was a Senator or House member required to vote with the president. Trump vilifys those Republicans who voted against him and claims they don't belong in government. Isn't that sort of Democracy in action to vote your mind?

Let's see, the Kennedy Center could get Patel's girlfriend, a one-act play by Stallone, a UFC card, any country act that favor Trump, TED talks by Tommy Tuberville and Meania, a Soviet dancing group and a dramatic reading of the U.S. Constitution by Lindsey Graham.

I think a great act to be inserted in the Kennedy Center program would be Kash Patel's girllfriend.

Trump wouldn't bother me so much if the administration, Senate and House had any control of his ego. Are they willing to let him lead the nation into a dark hole?

Anyone who looks at the clip of Renee being murdered knows that the ICE agent wasn't attempting to avoid being run over, he either panicked or just didn't give a damn.

If Minnesota's FOP is upset with Frey and Walz for speaking out against ICE, they are crazy. Standing up for law and order does not mean to stand with a bunch of untrained goons who have no consideration for citizens of a city or state.

I'd like to see a poll in Red states to see if its denizens believe they are getting what they voted for.

I take it that restraint is not emphasized in the ICE manual. I'm sure they know they won't be greeted with smiles and acceptance. Yes, sir Mr. ICE.

Fox's Jesse Watters mocks Renee Good, but no matter what he says, you can't take away from the fact that she was needlessly shot and the proof is provided in dozens of cell phone cameras. He's not a newsman, he's a Trump lacky.

How cowardly can they get? The ICE crowd, in unison with the president, are going out of their way to demonize Renee Good. but they can't in God's eyes make the shooter the victim.

Trump loves what is happening. He's looking for a reason to declare martial law and suspend the midterm elections. He's already expressed his fear that if the elections don't go his way he'll be impeached. Fear incites desparation.

The most outrageous fact in the aftermath of the ICE shooting in Minneapolis is that the Trump gang has the audacity to tell us what we saw and there's no question what we saw was murder.

Everyone who is convinced that the ICE shooting in Minneapolis was justified is simply expressing blind faith in Trump, while those directly involved are attempting to maintain their jobs.
