  1. Inflation and gas prices have everyone mad i voted for Biden because I didn’t like Trumps mean Tweets but other than that he was a Awesome President

  2. I understand the depression, but we cannot afford the voter apathy and let the minority of crazy take over the country. You don't vote, you have no voice. Not all politicians are in it for themselves. You just don't hear about the ones who are truly public servants trying to do the right thing in a system that needs a lot of reform, not overthrow by a bunch of right-wing, populace neo fascists.
    VOTE. Our democratic republic cannot survive to even hope to get better if the majority of good Americans just stay home.

  3. Vermont has alot mental health care in Vermont and Bernie Sanders put in community police officers and Republican governor and two senators work together in that state they hold the police officers accountable and banned military style weapons years ago looking at polls Vermont is one of the safest state in America and look who is moving there rich Republicans from Texas and Florida and staying until winter and driving up the real estate up in Vermont where did Baldwin go after his problem he went to Vermont and Vermont has alot of guns no problem there

  4. Joe Biden and the Democrats are destroying this country we all know it and that includes your family Chuck Todd

  5. Chuck todd needs to go with the rest of the democrates

  6. Political Anti depressants don’t make you “happy” it’ll just numb you to the fact that the duopoly are both pro Wall Street and are lying to you.

    They wont tell you an energy crisis economic collapse is coming, and both parties steal.

    They both want you depressed but political anti depressants wont work, a change of environment- that is a party that actually represents the economic interests of working people, would.

  7. I am sorry watch their language. Trump wanted to lock up another meanwhile he lies and fabricate outrageous narrative. Who will respect them

  8. True true and true !!! Self serving. They are a joke !! Come on

  9. Live news!
    Angela Markel has been accused of leaving Germany vulnerable by pursuing bussiness-led relations with Russia! Bustard leader of strong economic country in Europe!

  10. Hot news!
    Der Spiegel said: Germany doesnt trust Zelensky! Hahaha it's very clear since the beginning of devil's brutal Invasion in Ukraine!
    Germany absolutely hesitates to send Kyiv heavier lethal weapons!

  11. yep our political system definitely needs some anti-depressant meds, and the prescription should be to vote out all the lunatics in the GQP!

  12. It’s not about who’s the best anymore it’s about who has the most money. Millennials need to start running

  13. JAIL TRUMP 2022 ! Keep Stupid off Twitter.

    Stupid and the Dimwits in the same jail house block.

    Trump and his 2020 election denying MAGAT & Pinky power followers need to be shown the result of treason.

  14. Interesting how paints “politicians” in context of this story… just say, “Republicans”
    It’s what you clearly want to say!

  15. If only there were QUALITY lawmakers running. 🤣

  16. psychedelic treatment has proven to be effective in treating depression, it has helped me and thanks to the handle 👆above they’re reliable

    NOVEMBER, 8TH

  23. vote out ALL "career" politicians. everyone from cruz to pelosi! time to flush, america!

  24. Biden Doing great ☺

  25. "Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it."
    – Matthew 7:13-14

    – John 14:6

    "And what do you benefit if you gain the whole world but lose your own soul? Is anything worth more than your soul?"
    – Matthew 16:26

    "Satan, who is the god of this world, has blinded the minds of those who don’t believe. They are unable to see the glorious light of the Good News. They don’t understand this message about the glory of Christ, who is the exact likeness of God."
    – 2 Corinthians 4:4

  26. Biden is doing a great job?

  27. Don't listen to the B.S. republican commercial ads, they do that every year, they don't sht either. VOTE PROGRESSIVE

  28. No matter what, California will never go back to Republican governors or conservative leaders, they wanna go back to 1940s. PROGESSIVES will solve many California problems. At least they'll spend the tax money more transparently where it should be spent. Homelessness, monument maintenance, crime and punishment.

  29. People are tired of the democrats. I’m an ex-democrat as well

  30. Anyone voting Democrat deserves Bidens pain he is intentionally inflicting on AMERICANS .

  31. If they never do anything, who cares who wins? Either way they will spend all of their time fighting and accomplishing nothing for the country.

  32. Voters AND viewers are also cynical of and apathetic toward Chuck Todd.

  33. Surprised everyone isn’t disinterested by now –

  34. Nbcnews room will be crying and depressed in November on Election Day

  35. chuck fraud is a comedian

  36. DON'T FORGET MSNBC IS PART OF THAT CORRUPTION!!!!!!
