RockyMntnMike According to America's vaunted journalism industry, this is normal Presidential behavior. Time to amend the 1st Amendment?

There are two types of people in Trump's world - those who like him and those who don't. If you like him and believe everything he says you're a great person, if don't like him a don't believe what he says then you are not only his enemy but an enemy of the state. End of story

RockyMntnMike Where does your hate come from realDonaldTrump

70% of Americans want the question on the census.

So now the DODJcan over rule the Scotus

Love our President!

If this question is added. I advise everyone it apply's to, simply lie. The Trump adm is use to lies. So every one lie to this question. Just lie.

This is Just Republicans Cheating to Win!

hardball I DO NOT CARE about the census. What are we going to do NOW about the horrifying, INHUMANE conditions, deaths, starvation, and the caging of human beings at the border We MUST FREE THEM NOW! Be courageous America, We,The People must do this! Tear it DOWN!!

I don’t get why the Dems are not playing dirty. To beat him you have to be ready for his lies and bullshit. I can’t imagine the damage he has done to our relationships with our allies. Scares the hell out of me. Stand up and do your job & don’t talk he is laughing his ass off

Boycott the 2020 census!!

The directive, authority, and responsibility to do our periodic census BELONGS TO CONGRESS! NOT to the executive branch! Article 1. NOT Article 2! Department of Commerce performs the tasks but they must NOT be partisan, nor under the thumb of the prez. Trump HAS NO RIGHT!

Cool

Great job President. It's time someone put it all on the line for the good of our country. It's time Dem states weren't allowed to game the system by using illegals, min there's 12 mil but more realistic 30+mil illegals in this country, to increase their reps & electoral votes!

I agree wholeheartedly, here in Texas thousands won't answer.... so Texas will lose electoral voting strength. I love it when a plan blows up.

He’s not gonna stop.

Dept of Jackasses

hardball Um... the deadline passed in June.

millionpeoplemarchtoimpeach makeamericaunitedpeaceful (7/7)It is time for Peaceful Million People March to IMPEACH Presid. Trump and GOP Lawmakers. Congress must do their job to protect our constitution! Make our Voices Stronger to Save our Democracy, OUR FREEDOM OF SPEECH!

America is still new on experiencing the characteristics of the corrupt dictator. Time will come, there will be no point of return!!!! Future of the America will be the rules of corrupt dictator just like dictator in Philippine. No Freedom Speech!! Russia will be the winner!!!

Why did Obama take the citizenship question off the census?

They're past the printing deadline. If they add an addendum, that piece of paper will probably get thrown out by most people.

Please just leave us alone, dip stick!

That’s fine, but I highly doubt it will be a representation that’s accurate.

Too bad it won’t work! The courts will see right through this

Donald Trump is stubborn. Hardheadedness without good reason is his reaction to not getting what he wants. That is the reason why he keeps close ties with Putin, Chairman Kim and MBS. All of them share the qualities of one man rule: listening to themselves only.

He’s false

Impeach this mother fker already

All it will mean is we will just ignor the question. Just like The Moronic Trump Administration is ignoring the immigrants in Trumps concentration camps!

WHY IS CRIMINAL trump STILL IN THE WH? HE MUST GO NOW!!! CONGRESS, THIS IS SERIOUS BUSINESS. I WILL CONTINUE TO ASK THIS QUESTION UNTIL trump IS REMOVED FROM OFFICE. WHEN IS HE GOING TO PAY FOR HIS EVIL ACTIONS? HOLD HIS FEET TO THE FIRE 🔥🔥🔥

He's castrated Congress and now he's trying to do the same thing to SCOTUS. The Constitution means nothing to him

The DOJ led by crooked and subservient Barr is out of control and has taken the role of trumps enabler. This issue was ruled upon and should be put to bed not resurrected at the request of Fox and Friends.

It's bad when a President Defies Authority,Nobody can tell him ,He's wrong, One Day Creator will say,Enough is Enough,I heard the Voices of My Children pleading for help,What a Day it'll be,Jesus said when you Hurt the lease of these My little Ones,You're hurting Me

I am more concerned with electoral vote that it's easier 2 buy many votes states who still have electoral voting should follow what they do when court needs a jury. day of election have several come 2 c whose name is drawn none can leave until after they voted no phone calls.

My man, cracker has balls

Sweet dreams to all Democrats knowing realDonaldTrump is your President! KeepAmericaGreat

This is not only racist, it's unconstitutional. Ergo, peak Trumpism. Trump's Reason for a Census Citizenship Question Would Prohibit Voting for Most Citizens

Serious question...why is adding this onto census such a big deal

So much for independence from executive branch!!

C R A Z Y that's all !😋😋😋😋

I thought they were being printed. Another expense.

Go ahead Trump, you are undermining the purpose of the Census, and trying to use the people of this nation for your corrupt ways. People will purposely answer the question the same way, nation wide!!! We won’t let you have an accurate count.

He’s not gonna get his way this time

His way of getting the country's mind off of his monumental gaffes of yesterday. Create chaos. The world hasn't stopped laughing yet.

Every voter could play his game. Make a statement: Just say no to the question. If everyone did it what would happen

Liberals are once again going to loose. Something they should be used to by now🇺🇸😂😂🤣🇺🇸

What about resident aliens? Do undocumented even count for census? Greencarders cant vote so they dont count? How do we have peoples names and not know if they're citizens?

As they should to keep liberal states from unfair electoral college advantage. Common sense!

Trump is a mad man will try anything and everything! Most corrupt man ever to be in the office!! Nice work by the judges there verdict means nothing to this crook realDonaldTrump

Hmmm. Supreme court already ruled and now Trump will defy the SC.... let's see how that plays out

Go ahead trump put question in there. I won't answer it.

When will a brave soul step forward to lock this nut up and throw away the key? I am so tired of living in Trump's wacky world.🙃

The supreme court did not say he couldn't use the question! They gave an opinion! What they didn't do is make it law to be on there!

Don’t give this Loser the time of day.

I wonder if this will be enough for the TheDemocrats and SpeakerPelosi to start impeachment if ignore a supreme court order isn't a high crime and obstruction of justice then nothing is. And you can kiss democracy goodbye.

What, executive orders by Tweet now to? How special!

Do you think it's a coincidence that he just changed his mind after Rachel told him he could! Quit putting ideas in his head! Don't tell him what he can do or what he should do if he's smart! He is not! Let him screw himself!!!

Donald, Admit that you're out to reduce blue states body count and alter proper state funding and congessional representation. That is what this is all about. Full stop

hardball Contempt of court often has a five year penalty. Ignoring the Supreme Court is a high crime and misdemeanor.

Please, somebody at DOJ grow a pair and tell Trump “NO”, and that the case is settled.

These are not nice people.

Rachel Madcow just spent 22 minutes of airtime bcz Trump tweeted what we all know is bs. How fun would it be if you could piss people off that easily. 2020landslide

The judge in this case seen this tweet and immediately got on the phone to Gardner doj attorney. It was embarrassing at the conversation. Gardner said he had no clue what this tweet meant by the President.

ImpeachDonaldTrumpNOW

Leave the question blank, don't participate if you don't want to.

He has castrated Congress and now he's trying to do the same thing SCOTUS.. The Constitution means nothing to him

He is not God why are people scared of evil

Do any of you libs really feel non- citizens should be voting in our elections?

Pelosi, it's time for impeachment.

we need to know who lives in our society, if you refuse to complete the c ensus you are only hurting your area and yourselves

So are they defying the courts?

Speaker SpeakerPelosi how much more trashing of the constitution before impeachment inquiries start?

Good. It should be on there.

LYING aoc BUSTED!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Her 'crying' FAKE photo op was at an empty parking lot.

If you don’t believe citizenship should be on the census then ignore it.

So, realDonaldTrump ignores court decision and GOP will admire their luck for finally having a dictator in the WH!

What is a government of one called?

So not holding him accountable for anything is working out well.

I don’t understand why I was put in Twitter jail all day because I tweeted at Diamond and Silk over their attacks at Kamala Harris and Trump attack and tweet at people daily and nothing happens to him.

Wow, the DOJ is not independent. The AG truly is Trump's waterboy. We should call him WB instead of AG from now on.

As it should.

This has Stephen Miller's finger prints all over it.

god bless him

Once again looking out for American citizens and their rights .

I'm understanding how Hitler gained power. Lot of talk nothing done about it.

Good ❤👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

hardball Oh yea. There’s something about POTUS executive powers when executive branch is executing a census. Boy did you journos all got played because you don’t know how your own country works.

Does not follow instructions terrible leadership.
