        This could easily say, “I have in my possession 57 liberals who are apart of the Deep State.” This is the kind of America Fox News and Hannity want you to believe.

        More like "I have in my possession 57 Trump associates who are colluding with Russia". This us the kind of America that CNN and MSNBC want you to believe.

        I'm not on here to accumulate followers in an attempt to over-compensate for a lack of manhood like others are. I am here to state my opinions. The Democrats are acting more like Joe McCarthy in their Russia hysteria. All to cover up for Hillary getting schlonged. Sad!

        You sir are quite wrong. The Mueller investigation has already produced two felony indictments two felony guilty pleas and there is surely more to come. You have no evidence to confirm your wild conspiracy theories other than what Fox News and Hannity tell you to believe.

        The indictments have nothing to do with the Trump campaign. Keep dreaming snowflake. It is YOU who is aiding and abetting the Russians by contesting a duly elected President.

        The Flynn and Papadopoulos guilty pleas DO.. are we clear on that? They are cooperating with the Mueller investigation. Got it moron? No you don’t, because you’ll just blabber fake news! I only deal with facts, I just shut your Russian ass down with facts.

        First of all I'm from Ohio, dumbass. Second, both Flynn and Papadopoulos have pled guilty to lying to the FBI. The Trump campaign has been charged with no wrongdoing. Trump is spanking you Democrats like a small child.

        Pretty much believe that Joe McCarthy has gone down in history as a bigot and poor statesman. FYI, being a communist in America isn't illegal.
