Trump’s probably the most sane president since Reagan.

Democrats need to look in their own mirrors-they have come unhinged and are the ones mentally unstable!

This treasonous behavior might require executive/military action.

Traditionally and in most parts of the world people die during attempted coups. Something for our Democrat “friends” to consider.

I know that this is asking a lot, maybe way above the mental capacities of the press and democrats, read the 25 Amendment and then tell me how with a Republican controlled HOR you are going to impeach Trump. Wake up Charlie Rose, wake up Scott, etc.. Read and get back to me.

Have these people produced anything but lies in their careers?

Not only has telling the truth become a revolutionary act, it’s become a mentally unbalanced one as well.

Franken reportedly said “a few” Republican colleagues....

Of course he's talking about McCain, Linda Graham and Susan Collins, the three most liberal fruitcakes among the Republicans.

They want to get rid of him before he finds a way to get rid of them.

They should all be looking over their shoulders.

These jerks are just playing to their base in a futile effort to retain power.

That is an exceptionally dangerous idea for the #NeverTrump big government movement to follow.
