This dude is delusional. He knows no facts and states all the lies

@shane7133 March 19, 2025 - 9:33 am

This dude loves Ted Cruz. Ted Cruz is a spineless coward that cucked out to trump and his insane nonsense. These people have no business running the country. They only care about themselves.

@petecypris March 19, 2025 - 9:33 am

@pierrelabounty9917 March 19, 2025 - 9:33 am

Tim seems aquieasent to the status quo. Everything may be messed up, but it still works. Does it? And this is remember only an opinion piece.

@pierrelabounty9917 March 19, 2025 - 9:33 am

PBS and the Atlantic are hardly friendly venues for the Republican Democracy. Let alone evangelicalism.

@moseleycg March 19, 2025 - 9:33 am

Didn't age well. Trump won (3) times. Entire world knows it. Dude is a hack journo.

@vanceharmon3481 March 19, 2025 - 9:33 am

@mparker727 March 19, 2025 - 9:33 am

Great propaganda ! I love when a journalists tells us we’ve been lied to as Americans and that’s somehow unheard of . It’s what we do especially our govt 😂

@joshuaholder6818 March 19, 2025 - 9:33 am

@36742650885 March 19, 2025 - 9:33 am

Pure Propaganda

@36742650885 March 19, 2025 - 9:33 am

Maybe because the Democrats work continually to restrict voter ID laws…The ONLY reason to do that is because you intend to commit fraud…so.. NOPE

@wytrose4602 March 19, 2025 - 9:33 am

What a absolute utter lie. Only care about power. You don't have any idea what you are talking about. We have the evidence. We have people who confused to it. You should be charged with high tr eason given to the evidence. Their problem is they should have charged you with it. Guess they thought you would come to your senses just suing you was the nicest thing to do.
Obama care was a illegal tax on the us citizens.

@AndyT-np8mm March 19, 2025 - 9:33 am

All the noise aside, it's vital to have paper as the foundation of our voting system. The lack of credibility of the system is the real weakness here.

@tammyallen8205 March 19, 2025 - 9:33 am

I am watching this video on March 4th, 2025. And Donald Trump.& Elon Musk are in Office.And our federal government is getting demantled. And thousands of people are losing jobs & their careers are ending.. Healthcare & others agencies & things are being cut it looks like for good. There are Tarrif Wars beginning. And much more dire things happening. It is a bad time to be living in the United States & to be a United States citizen. And this is just the beginning of a very long, very dark 4 year Term of Donald Trump in the oval office. Lord God Help Us. Times & life in the United States is going to get worse. And today the Canada & Mexico Tarrifs start . And I live in Michigan & we are going to greatly suffer a lot.

@MyStaffies March 19, 2025 - 9:33 am

He is the center left. I prefer barpartisan speakers then one sided interests and agenda of a single party. 🙄

@Fugazi-News March 19, 2025 - 9:33 am

Lies and BS from fools

@steveduvell907 March 19, 2025 - 9:33 am

This man supported a president's open border policy messed up so badly that an entire country has started trending towards the opposite party. Later the same president went ahead and preemptively pardoned family, friends, and a animal abuser. The president that Tim supported was and is Biden, someone whose mental condition was covered up by mainstream media, including this guy and his employer The Atlantic. You, Tim Alberta, are a false Christian actively spreading lies and corruption amongst the poor people who read your work and know no better. You are part of the reason why the world is so split. You never said anything about how you were bought out by Dems using USAID, which was funding Politico. If you were as transparent as much as you wanted people to think you were, the country would have been in such a better place. I hope you can see how much media's lies have ruined the trust and goodwill of people all over the world.

@jaredwilcox1835 March 19, 2025 - 9:33 am

If it can't be audited then then something is being hidden. More importantly, why isn't there a segment of time between November 6th and the 20th of January to audit and double check?

@cynthiadudal9301 March 19, 2025 - 9:33 am

Why did they try to assinate TRUMP TWO TIMES. IT BACKFIRED. INVESTIGATION IS UNDERWAY. EVERY ATTEMPT FAILED TO RID TRUMP. 😂 FALSE CHARGES OVER AND OVER AGAIN. FANNI AND HER MARRIED BF WADE STOLE FROM UNDERPRIVILEGED KIDS. SHE'S REFUSED TO COMPLY WITH EVERY JUDGE A SUBPOENA'S REFUSE TO GIVE THE PAPERWORK OVER OF RECEIPTS WHERE DID THE MONEY GO PEOPLE WAKE UP

@grimmwolf9690 March 19, 2025 - 9:33 am

@miasmith268 March 19, 2025 - 9:33 am

You are completely delusional

@jerrygibson2689 March 19, 2025 - 9:33 am

Trump won, and this lieing bastard knows it.

@rjjenkins5601 March 19, 2025 - 9:33 am

Wild claims???? Biden had 70k more votes that disappeared in 2024!!! the cheating didn’t happen on REPUBLICAN areas!!!

@89firebird March 19, 2025 - 9:33 am

Dude you're full of BS

@MattDeckard March 19, 2025 - 9:33 am

To make a long story short… The only thing this guy said in the documentary is you shouldn’t vote for Trump because he insulted Tim Cruise‘s wife. Everything else is just t’s PBS… it’s gotta be trustworthy. Psy op at its best.

To make a long story short… The only thing this guy said in the documentary is you shouldn’t vote for Trump because he insulted Ted‘s Cruze’s wife. Everything else is just lacing in more feelings without facts they try to tie it to why you should feel bad about Trump insulting Ted Cruz‘s wife. Essentially just trust us Trump bad don’t look at anything else. Unfortunately, for the documentary I strayed and looked away and saw that Trump actually did some good and now I’ve been hosted from the Democrat party. [dictated but not read.]

@mikebrown9850 March 19, 2025 - 9:33 am

Hopefully the Propaganda Broadcast System will be defunded this year! 🇺🇸

@tracyharris9013 March 19, 2025 - 9:33 am

This man is so lied to. The proof is in the videos, Navy Pelosi set this up with not allowing the National Guard to come. And that there was plenty of evidence that proofed that the election was stolen. But not one judge would even look at all the evidence. But all the prof has now been seen and the Democrats couldn't lie anymore. And President Trump won . To big to rig this time Now all those who were involved with the steel should be held to all the real justice our country has. You are a man that is not telling the truth.

@gsk5161 March 19, 2025 - 9:33 am

This man is a clown, does he date Ted Cruz? He's nothing but a left wing hack, this is 2 yrs old, obviously he didn't know what he was talking about, most rags he worked for were being paid by the Democrat's.

@travisr1720 March 19, 2025 - 9:33 am

This aged well LOL

@jbyrnes55 March 19, 2025 - 9:33 am

Wow, this is what delusion looks like, not to mention self righteous dribble. It is a good watch because this guy believes all this. I'd be curious about how he would describe the last 4 years of Biden. When you travel the country like he did during 2020, he saw the truth and yet he didn't. Maybe the scales will fall from his eyes, but I doubt it. He is an intelligent, articulate writer who couldn't have got it more wrong. No mention of how the Jan 6th protests were fomented by our government. This is what our intelligence agencies do in other countries to destabilize them. Here's a lesson he might learn someday, maybe when over half of the country feels like the election was stolen in 2020, they're right.

@AntonovichHicksenbrau March 19, 2025 - 9:33 am

MAGA

@briangunter8717 March 19, 2025 - 9:33 am

Biden pay you your tax payer money

@davemcmullen6682 March 19, 2025 - 9:33 am

Democrats did steal the election in 2020….I'll never believe any difference…

@mindijaynecampbell March 19, 2025 - 9:33 am

This guy is so full of shit! I can't even stand to hear his voice! He is a liar!
