Dons real church home is Process Church of the Final Judgement.
I don't see James's comment as a derogatory one. Very simply, in hindsight he may have timed it differently. No big deal.
This man wanted to select states with majority black voters and questioned the validity!
What difference does it make? Racism is racism! He is personified hatred! What is it with junior rodeo, corn husking, cow tipping states? Are they too far away from an ocean that fresh air doesn’t get to their brains? Enough already! Just make a point DONT ever say anything you later have to apologise or backtrack on – AND- if you say something, grow a pair of balls and stick by your conviction of your earlier statements! NEVER ever trust anyone, let alone a politician who has to apologise! America is now in TOP 5 corrupt countries in the world- what an accolade! And yet 27 on education! You go America- your politicians have a lot of questions to answer!
Thank you Republicans for reminding us of your true colors today in our Nation's Capital.
States' rights
Fiscal conservatism
Law and order ( on black folk, at least; kid gloves for the "real" Republicans 😜)
Free markets
Limited Government.
I remember being lectured by you on these and other topics until you GAVE UP COMPLETELY in exchange for winning.
Turns out YOU'RE the Antifa thugs!
It went there as " agent provocature" and chief , to pour its brand of twisted conservatism "gasoline" on a peaceful protest to spin a tale for re-election. It will also be held accountable for its actions on letting Corona virus 2020 kill 140,000 American citizens . This thing and it's supporters are all going to held accountable for standing by and praising communist china while watching a American citizens die and doing nothing until itS poll numbers showed it was sinking in popularity …as that is all that matters to this thing ….the numbers ..it has even indicated this very point on live TV openly . Mr West and this orange thing are "combined" , the worst ongoing trainwreck this country has ever been subjected to from behind the resolute desk . Unacceptable , completely unacceptable .
MORONS LANKFORD AND JOHNSON GOP SENATORS OKLAHOMA AND WISCONSIN BOTH WANT COLUMBUS DAY ABOLISHED. BET ALL YOU GOT THEY KNEW THE NUMBER OF ITALIANS LIVING IN THEIR VOTING AREA PRIOR. SWAMP DWELLERS ARE INCLUDED IN BOTH PARTIES NOT JUST THE DEMONS.
If you don’t know what’s on the NAACP card, maybe you should get to know that….. That alone says something
Republicans are afraid of action, they bow to Trump, and are afraid of the backlash if they do not. They are spineless, they decide the Trump will be the hill that they’ll die on, and if they continue their inaction their party will collapse. And the nation will end the dreams of the freedom fighters from 1776.
He was still in bed.
Nothing said about the abusive violence inflicted on peaceful protestors by those same police!
Tulsa should cancel any rally for the many valid, non-political reasons.
James your pathetic
I voted for Trump in 2016. Now I regretted my vote for Trump. I should had voted for Hillary. I never knew it was going to be this bad. I wished I was forgiven. I can't believe Trump is more like a dictator to make America of law and order the way he wants. This sparks division, distruction and it's tearing our country apart. Also, when police tear gases on peaceful protester before Trump arrives for photo op, that's a direct abuse of power and unconstitutional. He must be voted out of all by all mean. He doesn't even know how to be President of the United States. He had no experience to run this country for the people who voted for him and never held political office during his career. He was simply a businessman. He need to know how serious this is and how this is going to cost him and the republicans in Congress. It's completely shameful we voted for inexperienced wannabe leader who can think he is doing a great job. I feel bad for those voters who voted for him in 2016.
some people just want to watch the world burn!
My name is talking Tina I'm mean Trump and I don't like you
Second guessing the president, not knowing what he knows or what 4 years of being unfairly attacked is like, is what miserable & sick people who cause division look like.
Trump supporters are being fooled by this false profit. The bible warned us. It is written. Please dont be fooled by false hope and promises. Wake up and read the bible. The devil without horns. Do not follow him into the fire.When a conman sez Whatta ya got to loose. Run just run.
Trump made taking a peaceful knee about disrespecting the flag. It was about police brutality and racial Injustice. Now the protest has turned violent and he talked a good game then gas protesters for a photo OP. So once again f#@k your cause by trump.
Lankford is a Jackass fake Christian.
Mr. Lankford , You stepped into the shoes of a great Senator out there, certainly for Oklahoma and the whole of the USA!
So far 0 Republicans have denounced what #45 has done or even said Pathetic
It was for a photo opp, a god damn BS sales commercial, yes were paying attention
Love me like me
Landlord you ass!
Only thing fake in America is our freedom, it's just an illusion
Disgusting. The DC protesters were peacefully executing their constitutional rights.
Trump had law abiding American citizens beaten and tergassed so he could get a photoop in front of a church holding an upside-down bible.
Anyone using their Christian belief's as an excuse to continue supporting Trump is a hypocrit.
This man is anti-christian in word and deed.
If the peaceful protesters hadn't torched the peaceful Church then the peaceful Trump wouldn't have needed to visit..Just Sayin' !!
If the peaceful protesters hadn't torched the peaceful Church then the peaceful Trump wouldn't have needed to visit..Just Sayin' !!
I’ve been to the protest. They are peaceful. Don’t let them let this be a ploy to grab power for the TRUMP. Dumpsters…Get y’all heads on straight!
Sickening. Bunker Bitch cares more about $ and Re -Election. Hence Photo Ops. Now look at his Butt hurt over the RNC… The campaign and Rally's most go on…
Still has not given any empathy or any come together speech.
Doctor Trump out 2020
Trump must be sued NOW! He’s a terrible man!
Liar he went there for the exact reason the whole world seen it this man has no heart just tell the truth my go
This man surt ur mouth
Drumpts speach called for violence and threatened protesters
This senator in under Trump’s malefic spell.
How the hell is that orange nightmare still president??!
How does he still have power over the country??
How can he still have people to execute his unhinged, incoherent orders?
It is looking like he’s a cult leader. The executive branch of America is all under a spell??!
Wake up and put that dangerous criminal behind bars! NOW!
It's no secret Senator Lankford, You are part of the problem, we judge that on your actions completely!
Emperors might materialise when senators are too terrified to criticise.
I’m in favor of Trump appearing in public as often as possible. Preferably so that anyone with a rifle and good aim has a clear shot at him.
The Bishop, Reverends and Pastors of the church did NOT ask tRUMP to "protect the church and not allow them to destroy the church." What a b.s. response from Lankford to a horrible horrendous wanna-be dictator who is destroying our country and constitution.
