Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Perhaps I’m an optimist, but my money is on the RNC being a clusterfuck that struggles in the general. This shakeup is going to remove people who actually know what the fuck is going on.
Yeah I get you, its like you are watching the nuclear reactor meltdown at a powerplant and hoping that the main chamber blows up prematurely because it might stop the reaction from running away into a catastrophic irradiation of everybody.
I’m praying that an extremely drunk passes out before getting into the car to drive, and he just decided to eat two Vicodin.
Hey Donald look I put a stack on the couch right here, don’t worry bud you can drive later just go chill with your stack of BK’s for awhile and watch golf while you slobber burger juice all over your disgusting fascist face, spout heinously racist drivel and complain about women that won’t have sex with you because they correctly conclude that despite being a former US President you are a pathetic loser.
Go snuggle with your burgers now Don, just for awhile, also take these pills they make your skin tanner.

The point isn't to win, it's to make loyalty. To be in the Republican party, you must be loyal to Trump now.
And that’s why they will collapse.
Trump needs to win if he wants to stay out of jail. The point is to win by any means.
And to do that, he wants or needs loyalists. People willing to do what it takes until he's used them up or they rise.
Yeah which is far more dangerous imo.
