Duur shit up, "hes allored". Stoopid demonrats!
We know, everyone knows, he doesn't even try to hide it.
Yeah, but Hunter Biden asked for a job, and told them his name. That's REAL corruption.
He even had a laptop with dick pics on it. The horror.
I agree, I think he's throwing it in our faces. You know, the faces of the 60 some percent of us that disapprove of him.
What is even more sad is the majority of that other 40 percent are saying that they find his corruption to be a good thing, a demonstration of his power.
Congress was doing this for ages. Just never quite so brazenly.
No fucking shit.
I wonder how much they had to threaten or bribe those people to look happy for the photo...
Watch him, he’s a comer.
Ew.
Americans are too lazy and apathetic to do anything about it.
I'm beginning to think I should just remove these for trolling. I will give you a chance in one comment to explain what Americans should do and what utopia country do you live in where the citizens have control over their government that is currently rigged against them?

If only the Jan 6 people had this belief...
What exactly are you saying.
That those morons believed they could make a difference... And they got close.
If only they had that feeling of helplessness...
Considering they had the president backing the insurrection. Thats the only reason they got 'close'. You can bet your ass if an insurrection was opposing the current admin, the national guard would be fully deployed before you even arrived.
Let me know when you're planning on storming the capitol, we all want to see the video.
Do you really think, that I would be allowed in that shit hole country?
Anyway, you asked the question....
Not OP but in general people take it to the streets, not on weekends but during work hours so there is an economic disruption the government is forced to pay attention to.
In lieu of that, any economic disruption would work, literally simply cancelling services that are not needed (streaming services for example) and/or cancelling accounts with any of the tech bros.
It's been 17 months and the only thing Americans can claim to have done is 2 weekend protests, one of which Trump literally posted a video of himself shitting on protesters. In the meantime, literally thousands of people have been slaughtered due to the actions of your government. Sorry for being unable to accept the "Americans are the REAL victims" take you seem to have fully adopted
What country are you from?
Canada… and just by not buying American booze and reducing trips to the USA we have generated more pressure than Americans being 10 times our population… so it's really hard for me to buy the notion of the caring but hapless American
Wow, you have the far right invading and trying to take away your free healthcare. I appreciate you putting pressure on is, but wtf are we actually supposed to do?
Republicans have been trying to assassinate him for awhile now. Corporations kiss his ass. Republicans run every part of the government and are setting up so they can cheat and do that in the future. Tell me oh wise one, wtf are we supposed to do?
wtf are we actually supposed to do?
I already told you… boycott as many corps as possible, disrupt economic activity in any way you can, deny your data to all big tech, etc
the issue here is that you all seem to want a free, easy, immediately effective solution to a problem decades in the making
wtf are you to do? something, anything would be better than pretending to be hapless
Lol, I already boycott everything. Are you disrupting your far right factions that are trying to take away your healthcare in Canada? Right now is the time.
I already boycott everything
then why are you all offended here? If you are acting then I am clearly not talking about you… now if a large portion of Americans were acting as you say you are, the effect would be notigeable which is not the case here
I appreciate you putting pressure on is, but wtf are we actually supposed to do?
Bravery and/or heroism.
