Remember: none of these people are President Trump.
But, yes, Devin Nunes is in fact suing an imaginary cow because it posts satirical things about him on its Twitter account. It's kind of hilarious.

Watching videos of people behaving oddly, and trying to decipher your intended meaning, bores me. Could I get a summary of what I'm supposed to infer?

If you'll look back at history, you'll see that most past presidents have routinely employed felons, child-molesters, and people unfamiliar with the concept of the Streisand Effect. The liberal media are only jumping on Trump about it because it fits their agenda.

On a more important subject, this is deeply disturbing:
What the ****?
While I find this kind of speech distasteful, it is FAR from a criminal act. The courts have ruled again and again that the first amendment protects hate speech, except under extremely narrowly defined circumstances (eg: likely to cause direct harm to a specific individual.)
This felony charge is even more disgusting than the person being charged.
Naperville Central HS student charged with hate crime for Craigslist post
POSTED 1:04 PM, NOVEMBER 20, 2019, BY WGN WEB DESK,
NAPERVILLE, Ill. — A teenager accused of placing a racist ad on Craigslist offering for sale an African American student has been charged.
According to the DuPage County State’s Attorney, the Naperville Central High School student is charged with two counts of felony hate crime and one count of misdemeanor disorderly conduct.
According to authorities, the teen took a photograph of the victim on Nov. 14 while at school. He then posted an ad on Craigslist with the photo and a caption that read, “Slave for sale (Naperville)” followed by an offensive racial slur.

100% accurate.
The pool of dems is awful right now and there's no chance of any of them winning against trump unless they impeach him -- and even then it's very doubtful he'd lose against any of those sexist racists [ Kamala]https://www.dailywire.com/news/kamala-harris-campaign-in-free-fall-abc-blames-america]Kamala]https://www.dailywire.com/news/kamala-harris-campaign-in-free-fall-abc-blames-america]Kamala]https://www.dailywire.com/news/kamala-harris-campaign-in-free-fall-abc-blames-america]Kamala Harris' words, not mine ].
Hell, it's even quite possible with all the devoted efforts to take Trump down, that Biden only joined the race when the dems learned that trump was inquiring about Hunter, and then they could say it was politically motivated for reelection.
Let's see:
Game Plan to Eliminate Trump
Plan A. Collude with Hillary, GPS and the Russians to win the election.
Plan B. Sway the Electoral College votes
Plan C. Overturn the Election results with recounts. (Recounts were abandoned when they resulted in more votes for Trump and exposing democrat voter fraud)
Plan D. Nullify the election by framing Trump with Russian collusion
Plan E. Have the Deep State take Trump out using the 25th Amendment
Plan F. Impeach Trump for firing Comey
Plan G@String (Stormey Daniels). Impeach Trump for Campaign Finance violations
Plan H. Push Back: “If you see anybody from that cabinet.....get in their face”
Plan I. Impeach Trump for Obstruction of Justice
Plan J. Demonize Trump’s S.C. Justice nominee
Plan K. Impeach Trump for Money Laundering
Plan L. Impeach Trump for Treason
Plan M. Impeach Trump for revoking security clearances of people no longer in the government.
Plan N. Obstruct everything Trump attempts to do in congress
Plan O. Impeach Trump for violation of the Emoluments Clause
Plan P. Throw tantrum over Trump’s tax returns we will never see
Plan Q. Give sixteen year olds the vote
Plan R. Eliminate the Electoral College
Plan S. Let imprisoned convicts vote
Plan T. Use pictures of illegal alien children caged by 0bama and blame Trump
Plan U. Mueller Report findings....
Plan V. Mueller's 9 minute summary of Weismann’s 400 pg op-ed
Plan W. Impeach Trump for "racist" Tweet "if you don't like it here, go home"
Plan X. Mueller's testimony before Congress ������
Plan Y. Moscow Trump Tower
Plan Z. Tie Bill's buddy Epstein to Trump
Plan AA. Exclude Trump from Kaliforia’s Primary Ballot
Plan AB. Convince voters we are headed into a recession
Plan AC. Recruit Establishment Never-Trumpers to run against him
Plan AD. Dox Trump supporters
Plan AE. Conspire with Silicon Valley to shut down any and all Conservatives
Plan AF. Change the whistle blower rules so literally anyone can fabricate a fake story based on hearsay
Plan AG. Change the House Rules on Impeachment as needed
Plan AH. Impeach Trump for pulling out of Syria after the Stated Mission of eradicating ISIS was successfully concluded
Plan AI. Impeach Trump for not informing leak prone democrats before taking out the ISIS leader and his successor
Plan AJ. Accuse Trump of a cover-up because the Trump/Zelenskiy transcript was stored on a secure system Wait, what?
Plan AK. Impeach Trump for Quid Pro Quo, no wait, make that Bribery, Extortion, intimidating tweets, or something.
Plan AL. Since Dems know they can’t impeach, have a meaningless show trial to keep the word “impeachment” in the news. And coach the witnesses on their hearsay evidence.

The Chancellor at Syracuse University has stated that he will actively work with a group of students who have issued several demands meant to address a racism issue at the school, including the institution of a new policy that would require students be offered an option to choose that their roommate share the same race.
The demand to allow "students of color" to elect not to room with students of other races was one of several such demands issued by a group of protesting students who aired their concerns about racism on campus during an ongoing sit-in. Syracuse Chancellor Kent Syverud spoke at the sit-in in a live-streamed exchange.
“This university has stolen my mental health." Tweet This
Calling themselves “#NotAgainSU,” this group of protestors is calling for the chancellor to resign if he does not sign a document conceding to the list of demands by Wednesday. Even before the given deadline, over 1,000 protesters have already petitioned for his resignation online.
“The general consensus is that black students, and we’re talking specifically on behalf of Black students, may feel safer and better rooming with other Black students rather than saying the same race has an implementation of a profile system or a portal system. That includes interests as well as race,” a representative of the student protesters said during the meeting.
Chancellor Syverud responded, saying he spoke with students and learned that they had “good reason to fear” roommates who “harbor views of racism.” He stopped short of agreeing to the demand, however, saying that he is having housing experts look into it.

we are all going to die in 9 years.
The only cure is more money.
Imagine being part of a party that has such a shitty platform with zero substance, you have to scare people into voting

Virginia Governor Pushes Gun Control After Democrats Take State Houses, ‘Working’ on Confiscation Plan

Trump won the primary and the presidency because he ran on policies. And that's exactly why he will win reelection over virtue signaling, and highway robbery in the name the common good.
Those same policies that have started wwiii and tanked the economy and started race riots and whatever other hundreds of stupid things democrats predicted would happen when he took office.
someone agrees:

Seems legit:
Yet she blamed her own party on polling so low on sexism and racism.
Facebook Post
HARRIS: “...People working 2 or 3 jobs: if they don’t pay that credit card by the end of the month, they get a penalty. For the people that don’t pay their rent, they get evicted. For the people who shoplift, they go to jail.”
“We need the same set of rules for everybody.”
“We need the same set of rules for everybody.”
