- MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell describes the political history that was made outside and inside the courthouse of Donald Trump’s criminal trial. Outside the courthouse, Republicans led by House Speaker Mike Johnson rose up to show support for Donald Trump. And inside the courtroom, Michael Cohen’s cross-examination almost made you “begin to understand him” for the first time.

Lawrence is the voice of the higher conscience of our nation.
Yes.. He also has many charity's he is a member of.. Google it and donate. He'd like that. I recently donated to "KIDS IN NEED OF DESKS"
Our comments are sufficient, but I bet a good way to thank him for his journalism would be to make a donation to the above mentioned.
No pressure❤
Really?
Mr O'Donnell, Sir, you are Loved.
There is nobody that brings it like you do ...
Choke on those words.
@@ROBERTMORAN-mv7eq Robert Bobert
@@ROBERTMORAN-mv7eq Robert Bobert, is that you
@@ROBERTMORAN-mv7eq XD oh no, the internet hoodoo priests have descendent on the comment section, trying to will their political opponents dead with impotente rage alone.
Lawrence, you are a true artist. The verbal picture you painted of Trump sitting in court was sheer genius.😂
Mike Johnson is the perfect example of a Religious Hypocrite.
He's afraid.
A Religious Zealot / Hypocrite
Is The Worst Kind Of Witness.
The Tree Is Known By It’s Fruit.
Wonder if someone gave him 30 pieces of silver like a predecessor?
And when the churches are full of religious hypocrites that makes him a very powerful person.
It appears we all think the same thing about Johnson.
Lawrence O'Donnell is simply the best.
Better than all the rest
I heard Tina to!
@@lucylillypad1512Better than anyone I've ever met...❤
Totally agree
The best at what, creeping people out? Can't argue with you there.
Makes me sick House Speaker would go to court!! Sick and disgusting. 🤢🤮
No sick and disgusting is voting for a senile traitor
It makes you sick but does it surprise you ?
@@tellittothemarines704sadly and alarmingly: no.
He should have stayed away- it's quite wrong for any legislator to be in a court except as a defendant or a witness. There ought not to be even the appearance of government pressure on any judicial process.
My guess is Johnson is VP pick, going for Trumpianity votes.
My question is - are "We the People" paying the members of the legislative branch to attend this trial? I was under the impression that they worked for us, not the defendant in this trial.
You would think so, wouldn't you! Well here we are
Of course "We" are! We pay their salaries too. We pay for the Secret Service Detail of the POTUS. We also pay Administration Cabnet Members Secret Service Details as well. Taxpayer money pays for 567 White House Employees as well, to the estimated amount of $49.6M every year, more or less.There are 524 staff members in the White House, 91 of them are paid $150,000.00 more or less, 41 of them earn $180,000.00 more or less. The average salary for paid staff members is $104,505.00. There are 19 staffers who are not paid salaries. Most of them are paid by outside agencies.
Obviously, I made an incorrect career choice.
Exactly!! And I want my tax money back from each one of those who attended the trial and then keeping all representatives all evening to do what they could have done earlier. They’re wasting our money alright but it’s not Biden doing it, it’s trumps flunkies.
I can see Secret Service for President but why do we still protect a man that attempted to overthrow the same government he was to protect? Who didn’t pay his rightful taxes but we have to. Why are we protecting trump’s family? Does he get a pension? If he gets back in office he wants to take mine. After 55years of working.
And who paid for the flight to NYC ? Taxpayers??🤨
Of course!
Lawrence o'Donnell, you are the best , look forward to your broadcast every day !!!
Agreed!
Michael Cohen is this century’s John Dean. Thank you Michael Cohen and Lawrence O’Donnell for fighting the good fight for America.
It's a sham trail and it will not stop the maga movement
he already stated in court years ago about making a payment to Stormy Daniels without Trumps knowledge. if the story changes then his credibility is gone.
Lawrence is an AWESOME born storyteller. Absolutely LOVE his segments. He’s why I subbed to this app 🖤
Lawrence O'Donnell SHOWS he is an excellent orator. We can paint a picture of the courtroom. Cohen is a lawyer, he went in KNOWING how to carry himself, go hard in the paint, and shoot for the win! WELL DONE!
Would this be tolerated if it was Obama or Biden instead of Trump? No.
They would have been impeached before losing America .the GOP CREATED AND EXCUSED A TRAITOR MADE EXCUSES AND PARDONED THE CORRUPTION STOP THE WAR VOTE BLUE IN 2024
They would be "storming" something if it were any Democrat.
If it was Biden or Obama charges would have never been brought. Open your eyes.
Biden gets a free pass BC he is old your right he hasn't been in the hot seat where he belongs. You will see, at Americas expense
Shouldn't tolerate this behavior from ANYONE. No matter the party. Obama was not indicted because he didn't commit crimes.
And Dan Quayle’s political career was destroyed over a misspelled word. Oh, how far the GOP has fallen.
Potatoe-potato?
Quayle's political career wasn't "destroyed". He just had zero appeal and capability.
@@MrShobar I dunno. He had nice eyes.
Thank you,Lawrence..you ARE loved!!!!
I appreciate the thoughtfulness in your commentary; it encourages critical thinking .
Watch Mike Johnson ,”bear false witness”. What a hypocrite !
Repubs are making Christianity look ridiculous. Pence sticking with Trump - after the Hollywood Access tape went public, ....is yet another of the thousands of ways US Bible Thumpers tarnish Christianity.
Oops
Well said!!!
I watched him and thought he looked real sick, kissing Trump's rear live on TV!
Mike Johnson is one of the many reasons why few people trust members of the Christian cult.
I love the way that Lawrence narrates and weaves everything together. Johnson is a fake Christian and a Traitor!.
Amen!!
Those evangelical Trump lovers are all hypocrites. No way is their behavior Christian. Those Republicans who are in court to support Trump are only there because they knew it looked bad that no one was there for Trump. They have no shame.
AGREED
I think Baptists are big on forgiveness. Bill Clinton comes to mind.
He is a "Christian" if you believe "Christian" is a right wing political cult.
Lawrence really knows how to put together the facts and present them in a very meaningful way. He's my favorite on MSNBC.
First 4 min deserves a standing ovation. Thank you for say the quiet part OUT LOUD
Thank you to Cohen’s family for doing a loving intervention to help Michael, the truth, and the country.
Respect!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Mike's Johnson: a perfect example of situational ethics.
Mike Johnson has “no” ethics, situational or otherwise. IMO
He's the toad on trumps mushroom
GOP is a joke.
Exactly, well stated ! ❤
Mike is a great man.
SPEAKER MIKE JOHNSON GO HOME! It is completely inappropriate for you to show up on behalf of the defendant in a trial that follows the RULE OF LAW! What are you, his cheerleader? You ought to be ashamed. The PEOPLE of the JURY will DECIDE!!! VOTE BLUE
The 2nd in line to the presidency no less! How did we get here?! 😡
@@oliviaturner7388 Third in line.
How awful for Mike Johnson to show up and support Donald Trump. How is that inappropriate? Judge Marchan's daughter is a democratic fundraiser making millions of dollars from this trial, so if you want to talk about inappropriate it's Marchan not recusing himself.
@@oliviaturner7388 How did we get here? People voted for Joe Biden who is the most corrupt and weak president we have ever had. He's afraid he won't win unless he gets rid of Trump. He is despicable.
Do you say something about Thomas and his wife?
WELL DONE Lawrence!!!!!
Lawrence always hits the spot in his monologues.
His monologue is the only thing worth watching an MSNBC
The spot that makes you regurgitate your stomach contents 🤮
Might want to see a dr about that. Sounds like you have an allergy to truth.
@@jeffyfromfamilycircus See you at Donnie's sentencing hearing! Will be wild!
❤LO'D❤
Lawrence, the absolute best 🙌 in journalism.
This isn't journalism, it's political propaganda....
This isn't journalism, it's pure propaganda and fiction.
💯!!
Lawrence, Not sure if you know it, but you're a poet and comedian. I'm in stitches!!! I am going to listen to your commentary again to make sure I didn't miss any of the jokes!!!
Lawrence is absolutely the BEST! He would be an excellent college professor. I'd take EVERY class he offered. Learning would be so easy. He explains EVERYTHING so clearly and so well. He's incredible!
BRAVO, Lawrence! Outstanding work! Thanks again for the work you do.
JOHNSON HAS
KISSED the RING!!
OF SHAME!!
Is that what they are calling "the dangling thing" these days, a ring?
He kisses a lot of butt too every chance he gets!
💙Any which way, we Dems need super majorities in both the House and Senate .. Vote Blue November 5 💙
Johnson is a fake Christian he is a Maga cult
Yes he still has the stains around his mouth! Next time, the Dems should let him fall!
Donald Trump and house speaker Mike Johnson continue to show the hypocrisy of the religious right
The hypocrisy of the religious wrong.
The Republicans, like a lot of people who profess to be religious, use religion as a shield and a distraction to hide their true nature.
Which is what Jesus disliked the most!!
The fake religious right
Religious Reich
Lawrence is the best. He tells it like it is, and it's all true.❤ Lawrence is so detailed. He's the best.
Dang Lawrence, you're so good at bringing us into the courtroom!
Lawrence’s speech about Trump’s mouth collapsing as he slept is a fantastic bit of writing, better than any court artists.
He left out the drooling.
Trump aren't really sleep, it's part of the act. Don't forget the apprentice he was promoting. He knows how to act, and fake a sleep, it was a show.
YES!!!
@@michaeltrower741 That's an idea, next Trump could hawk gold monogrammed drool buckets.
A masterpiece.
Throwing all dignity in the trash just to get a nod from the mob boss. Johnson is not the first, or last, to do it. But to go cheer him up at the courthouse is a new low, even for the GOP.
He and the other Musketeers all came in dressed alike. What was that about?
@@gointothedogs4634 "Look boss, we love you, and you have such great dress sense".
You really can't get much lower than Mike Johnson. What a fool!!!
beyond disgusting for a self proclaimed 'Christian'
@@gointothedogs4634 It is what Mobster's do in court as a show of support in NYC
What amazing commentary. Lawrence is a National treasure.
Lawrence O’Donnell is hands down the best commentator and narrator of these hearings across all media.
When thinking of Speaker Mike Johnson, "Men never do evil so completely and cheerfully as when they do it from religious conviction. " - Blaise Pascal
Judas!
It is _lack_ of religious conviction that makes him support DT. His so-called faith is an empty shell.
Seems to me, it's all image for these people. Much hypocrisy.
We, as Americans have to vote the mega republicans out of office.
You can identify them by their red hats and ties.
You, as Americans voted every one of them in.
Sadly, many won’t
A very significant (close to half) the country are republican voters. You could seek unity. But you seek division!!
@@ronbelanger4113 I didn't, I always vote BLUE!
Mr. O'Donnell your jouralism skills are absolutely STELLAR. I love, love, love your use of such descriptive words. ❤ You provide such a vivid imagery that can be so comical, I truly enjoy it.
I don't hate Trump. I just don't want him to be President again. He did enough damage the first time around.
Inflation was at 1.4%, the border was secure, there was peace throughout the middle east, and we were energy independent. What damage did he do exactly?
@@aprilrains973
Took advantage of the American public...used us to enrich himself and family like any 'despot.
Ignored COVID...how many Americans died...unless you believe they 'just died'. When he began to accept it was real, he suggested "injecting bleach". I'll never forget the astounded look on that govt nurse during his press mtg!
I agree. I’m so surprised at how quickly so many of our countrymen either don’t remember or don’t care. He used to be a beloved American, altho somewhat of a caricature like on Apprentice, but now he is truly hated by half of Americans.
He's still way better than Biden... And what other choice do you have? How do you figure he did damage to our country... What did he damage.... Really?
@@RLReaganI wouldn't say half... That's stretching it
America is in a sad place with these Republicans!
Very sad place, we, all of us must wake up.
Vote for American freedom to remain
.
America is in a very dangerous place with these Republicans.
But , but the Democrats voter to keep him as speaker. Hahahaha.
@@newyorkcitythebigapple359 It was the least offensive of two disgusting choices.
@@Meridian83West hahaha, You lost it
As a Gen-X white male, I suspected in 2016 the tragic horrors of Donald becoming President. What I could not have predicted was the depths to which this country would fall.
Truth
It is pathetic and sad that so many want to use the lies of Trump to distract from each of their criminal malfeasance & fraud.
Gen X woman here, same.
Here in the UK we anticipated the Fall of America since the 1600s
Can't get any worse of a disaster than Biden has us in hands down. Forget all the talk about false this or that. People are getting killed and have been killed under Biden. But then again the hate you all have for Trump is what's sickening
Great presentation of truth and real perspective
Oh Lawrence, I so totally enjoyed your vivid description of Trump’s sleeping face!
Cohen: "Sounds like something I would say." LOL Gotta love Michael C!
I do!❤
Quote: "Religiosity is to Mike Johnson what vulgarity is to Donald Trump."
This describes the characters to the point.
Lawrence O’Donnell you make my day ;-)
Right on Lawrence !!!
I just love Lawrence! Keep up the good work. 👏👏💪💪👍👍
Great commentary! It is disgusting to me how Mike Johnson & other republicans spoke out against the trial in support of Trump. They will NOT get my vote!
He was a great president why are you upset
There needs to be more limits placed on the first amendment. This is worse than yelling fire in a theater.
@@EUCvibes Da, Fellow Americanski.
@@EUCvibesum nope he wasn't.
@@EUCvibesby what measure? You are pathetic
Speaker Johnson should check the Commandment regarding "THOU SHALT NOT BEAR FALSE WITNESS".
SO PERTINENT !
Also, thou shalt have no other gods before me. Johnson idolizes DT.
Also thou shalt not commit adultery. And possibly thou shalt not covet.
Johnson broke a bunch of commandments. I guess he meant he "follows" the Bible and has heard of it but doesn't necessarily believe in the "recommendations" of the commandments.
It must be very hard for politicians to resist the temptations that power brings......
Wow, that was amazing Lawrence. ❤
Lawrence - Thank you for expressing so clearly and truthfully what is exactly going on.
You are the best!
Johnson is a weasel.
Johnson is a Bible thumping weasel.
He sure is! The Dems bailed him out..from losing his job as Speaker.. then he turns around and says and does this. You just effed up!!
Trump should get double time that Cohen received.
Yes
or a wussy...take your pick
Holy cow, Mr. O'Donnell. This is poetry.
This was meant for drumpt ears he watches the show. Lol
My sentiments exactly.
You’re in your finest hour these days, Lawrence, and I feel the same way! ❤❤🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🤬
brilliant Mr O’Donnell!
Sycophantic jellyfish Mike Johnson, there to uphold and promote the criminality of DT.
When I was growing up in a Southern Baptist ruled house, dancing wasn't allowed. Now they praise the most sinful SOB on earth.
Well said!
I call it sucking up.
These republican politicians are mere puppets and mouthpieces for a cheap con man. Trump is laughing at each and every one of them. A sucker is born e born every day. And the majority of them have gravitated to the republican party.
And they brought ramaswamy in a leash
There are not many persons who would publicly apologize the way Michael Cohen did to Congress, to his family and to the entire USA for his corrupt actions on behalf of Trump. He also said that he was ashamed of his behavior. I have come to have much respect and admiration for Michael and how he tried to turn his life around for the better.
Redemption is a beautiful word, and Michael Cohen exemplifies it!
I did not like Michael Cohen much, but changed my mind after reading his books.
They made things a lot clearer and him more likable because of his honesty and taking the blame for his mistakes instead of blaming others for things he did wrong.
I'm proud of how he handles himself in court as it won't be easy to see all that dirty laundry out in the open and, in front of the whole world, admit to all the things he's done wrong.
Chapeau Michael!
@@ReneeUK1that’s the whole point! You fool
He told the truth knowing that doing so led to incarceration. Those who kept their mouths shut got pardons.
I thank God for Michael Cohen or we wouldn't find out about none of Donald Trump's behavior.
WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT MERRICK GARLAND. 🤬🤬🤬🤬 Glen you know this needs to be done.
Nailed it again L O
Mike Johnson is a WOLF in SHEEPS clothing
MAGA Mike is not disguising his LOVE and ALLEGIANCE for his "MESSIAH"!!! You have to be some kind of EVIL to make a MAN forsake his GOD!!!
Personally, I’m not the least bit surprised.
@bojax67 or have knowledge of an illicit affair with Mike Johnson involved to blackmail Mike Johnson to appear in front of that court supporting Trump. Or maybe Trump has knowledge of Mike's wife. Who knows? But Michael Cohen knows that blackmail and threats have been used by Trump to coerce support historically. Why would Trump not be using them now?
@@bojax67 oh well. Pelosi was 100% for Dems. Now its your turn. Welcome to politics. It also happens with presidents. Biden is 100% dem and Trump is 100% Rep, so .....i wonder who will win. moral of the story is, what goes around, comes around.
Trump does have a Big Cult.
All those Republicans should be held accountable for the statements made
💯
Those (R)s are GUILTY BY ASSOCIATION WITH TRUMP.
Accessories After the Fact. Obstruction of Justice. Dereliction of Duty. Contempt of The Rule of Law Spreading FAKE NEWS FAĹSE ACCUSATIONS. Being Absent from Work without a Doctor's Note. Lol.
Those congressdudes who showed up to support drumpf should be docked pay for time spent not doing their job... but that would be every day.
The democrats should have to pay for this stupid trial..trump 2024!
Wonderful commentary Lawrence!
Thank you, Mr. O'Donnell.
Pathetic Mike Johnson. Hakeem 4 Speaker!!!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
You hit the heart of Johnson’s hypocrisy! Judas!

@@rodb4923Donald trump is this This is it selfish.I'll fish and chowder's man
Mike Johnson is why the Founding Fathers deemed *ALL* religions unfit for modern, civil governance.
The *1st Amendment's Establishment Clause* prohibits the government from making any law, _“respecting an establishment of religion.”_
This clause not only forbids the government from establishing an official religion, but also prohibits government actions that unduly favor one religion over another. It also prohibits the government from unduly preferring religion over non-religion.
*Constitution Article VI Supreme Law - Clause 3 Oaths of Office*
_"The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the Members of the several State Legislatures, and all executive and judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution; _*_but no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States."_*
This means nobody is ever required to swear to a god or on the Bible, or any other religious book for an oath of office. They may choose a god or religious book, but none is required.
Thomas Jefferson and Calvin Coolidge did not use a Bible in their oath-taking ceremonies. Theodore Roosevelt did not use the Bible when taking the oath in 1901, nor did John Quincy Adams, who swore on a book of law, with the intention that he was swearing on the constitution.
_"In this enlightened age and in this land of equal liberty, _*_it is our boast,_*_ that a man's religious tenets will not forfeit the protection of the laws, nor deprive him of the right of attaining and holding the highest offices that are known in the United States."_
*-George Washington*
_“The United States is not a Christian nation any more than it is a Jewish or Mohammedan Nation.”_
*- John Adams* (American statesman, attorney, diplomat, writer, Founding Father & 2nd president)
_“...the government of the United States of America is not in any sense founded on the Christian Religion."_
*-Treaty of Tripoli - June 7, 1797. Signed by President John Adams & Ratified UNANIMOUSLY, by the Senate June 10, 1797*
....only a few times in history the Senate unanimously agreed on anything.
A 2018 Supreme Court Ruling re-affirmed this statement, from The Treaty of Tripoli.
The Supreme Court released an opinion on May 14, 2018 in Murphy v. National Collegiate Athletic Assn., 584 U. S. (2018), Justice Thomas in his concurring opinion wrote:
_"The Treaty of Tripoli was passed by the Senate and signed into law by President John Adams. As such, it is a "legislated text" which must be read "textually". The lower courts in this case read a hypothetical legislative intention into the text by dismissing Article 11 as "a mere formality". _*_The language itself makes a clear direct statement that our government is not based on the Christian religion and any attempt by a government official to represent our government as Christian contradicts the text and the historical understanding of our founders."_*
Can't imagine the events if it were a former Democrat president on trial!!!! Vote MAGA OUT IN NOVEMBER
Brilliant commentary as usual! Thank you!
mike johnson just killed his political career , democrats saved his butt when mtg tried to have him removed again , mike is on his own now , and it doesn't look good for yet another republican with no honor or dignity , he should have kept his nose out of court , the speaker of the house should not have been there as a cheerleader for the suspect , very bad move soon to be late speaker.

Ask Mike Johnson should we remove "Thou shalt not commit adultry" from the 10 Commandments?
And "Thou shalt not bear false witness" for all the Republican's who came to court to spew lies today.
You'll get an answer that has nothing to do with the question you asked him. That's the maggot way.
Why has no one asked those questions? They're so obvious. Why?
Another most BRILLIANT commentary, Lawrence. You never, ever disappoint. God Bless You, Sir!!! ✊🇺🇸

Five years ago, this would've sounded like a story from Weekend Update. Thank you, Dirty Donnie, for bringing America down to the level of a comedy sketch.
"Send me invoices so there can be even more hard evidence against me."
What a great storytelling of Michael Cohen’s redemption moment. Great work, Lawrence
It really was. I've been watching Michael Cohen working so hard to redeem himself, and there are a lot of people that aren't aware of it yet. It's obvious he feels shame and remorse for his prior actions if people paid attention. And the way he speaks and the words he uses now makes it obvious that he's a changed man. He's returned to what his core values really are and then some, and he's actually making a stand for them and for others. He absolutely acknowledges there has to be redemption. That he owes it to himself and everyone else. That's another sign of remorse. That he feels like he's still earning his redemption.
Lawrence O'Donnell is one of America's most trustworthy journalists.
Thank you Lawrence O'Donnell That was right on point That's why I always watch you I know you will give it to us straight
Lawrence you are a poet, Thank you.
The basic tenets of Christianity are the Ten Commandments. How can you possibly call yourself a " Christian " if you break those commandments or condone and praise the breaking of them by one who calls himself the" Chosen One"?
The 2 utmost tenets of Christianity are the Golden rule and love your neighbor as yourself. The 10 commandments are from Judaism. In Judaism, they also follow The Golden Rule - that’s where Jesus learned of the rule growing up.
However, I do agree that any of these laws and tenets are broken every day by MAGA Mike with his support of a false leader, #45.
@@monicawallace-jn8tlThank you 🙏
The gag order explicitly says Donald can not use others to break it. These accomplices should all be arrested together with Donald for breaking the gag order again.
So why aren't they. The judge seems to be bluffing.
I agree. They should be, but I doubt that they will.
Wouldn’t it be ironic if their actions cause their fearful leader a month in jail 😳
Part of the gag order says that he cannot have anyone to speak for him if they are talking about the jury, witnesses or family members of the judge. One of the GOP members spoke negatively about the judges daughter. So, the gag order has been violated again. Time for Trump to go to jail.
You are simply the best, Mr. O'Donnell.
You nailed it!
Trump does not deserve another term in the White House
Neither does America deserve another term by Trump in the White House.
He should'nt have had the first one.
He didn't deserve the first one.
That's what I said.....he should have NEVER been elected the first time and if you ask me he probably rigged it being why he is on trial now 🤦
So glad though that he will likely be reelected. The economy is terrible.
Lawrence brings it every single night!
My grandmother used to say the samething, "Im just resting my eyes, I'm not asleep." She was knocked out. RIP NANA❤
Lawrence is a genius. Johnson is not a Christian Shame on him.
Lawrence, I just want to say your reporting is brilliant. Extremely thought-provoking and moving. Thank you.
Such hypocrisy and total lies! Johnson just showed us who he is. Believe him!!
Mike Johnson is without a thought a slimey snake.
Democrats don't bother saving Speaker Mike Johnson anymore!!!!!
Ha ha haha haha hahaha!!!
Anyone who couldn’t already see what a religious creep this guy is, is deaf and blind.
I bet Trump forced Johnson to show up today to keep his job. He didn’t even go through security to be in the court room. He was there for the photo op and then out the door speaking to the press.
I hope Lawrence O’Donnell is a moderator at the debates!!
How has America fallen so low. We are all waiting “to breathe free” again.
Lawrence. Your words sound like poetry to my ears. You are the master.
I have no respect for Trump or any Republican who supports him and lies for him. What a mockery! I'm sick of them and their lies. What ever happened to integrity ?
Whatever happened to sanity ?
I agree, they only spew lies like Trump because they are brainwashed by hate, fear mongering and victimhood, everyone else is to blame for their sorrows. People who work and are prosperous (not wealthy), pay taxes and don't care if people who are poor get help, this is also the way a Christian feels. I still try to feel empathy for these folks and pray they come out of hate filled fog Trump has them under.
I have no respect for Biden or Democrats who support him or his lies. What a criminal in our White House! No integrity and all corrupt!
They have no morals, integrity OR religion. They are all liars that have sold their soul for power.
Period.
Integrity is a myth we all chose to believe because we are cowards.
Thank you, Lawrence! I always enjoy you segments!
