    A man who is willing to sell American Troops is unfit to be Commander in Chief. Trump and the Republicans who continue to support Trump do not give a ****ing **** about the troops. But you don't have to take my word for it, here is a list of Trump's record on the troops from Reddit user moondoginyoureyes.

    Well, Amash is close... Trump isn't selling anything (partly because he's one of the worst salesmen in history).

    He's renting our troops out.. because we get the living ones back at the end...

    I cannot find the clip online, but I think Esper, in addition to debunking Trumps crap about "4 embassies" also debunked the "1 billion in the bank" thing on this topic yesterday.

    Esper seems like a reasonably intelligent fella... how must he feel having to be leashed up on Sunday to defend this nonsense??

    It's bad enough we're the world's damn policeman. If we can get reimbursed at least that's something.

    Apropos of absolutely nothing, I'm sort of laughing at the headline that just showed up on MSNBC...

    Breaking News
    Supreme Court declines appeal of woman who urged boyfriend to kill himself

    There are so many levels of strangeness in that single sentence, you sort of have to laugh...

    I know it's essentially a potential 1st amendment case, but I'd vote to hear it, just to hear the recaps..

    Back to Trump renting off parts of America....

    That "something" is Trump using the military as a mercenary force.

    So Trump is guilty of what other people do..
    Sounds very much like a demoncest.

    What Obama supporters have to say about supporting our troops is not worth a somalian penny.

    You are criticizing him now though, right? The whole reference to Obama and "Demoncests" is just your way of REALLY criticizing him, right?

    I think the theory that he is is complete Shiit, just like all the other stupid allegations against him that have been proven untrue

    Why is the following quote not proof: "We have a very good relationship with Saudi Arabia. I said, listen, you’re a very rich country. You want more troops? I’m going to send them to you, but you’ve got to pay us. They’re paying us. They’ve already deposited $1 billion in the bank?"

    Trump's chances of being re-elected are increased now that he has been impeached is your argument?

    That case is a clear cut one and the Supreme Court is right to decline appeal. If you, through your own person exert influence over another individual and use said influence to cause someone's death, then yes you're responsible for murder. In the same breath that the first amendment does not cover violent speech.

    Justin Amash resigns from House Freedom Caucus after Trump impeachment call
    "Mr. Amash became an issue for Freedom Caucus members since concluding that former special counsel Robert Mueller’s report provides “multiple examples” of Mr. Trump obstructing justice and justification for impeachment."

    He's an attention whore.
