Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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!

I listened to the little bit of the interview they had, and he's just a shitty used car salesman.

Used cars are one of the few things he actually hasn’t tried (and failed) to sell, which is ironic as he’s probably be pretty good at it.

We've got fantastic cars, the best cars. They've got all the best parts; windows, air conditioning, leather... nice leather seats. You like leather? I've got a leather couch in my penthouse. White leather, very classy. JD says it chafes but I think it's classy. Made in Germany, you been to Germany? Magnificent couch makers in Germany. And they've got nice cars in Germany but nothing like these cars, we've only got the best cars on this lot. You driven a folkswagon? Wonderful family car, you can fit all your kids in this car, great for kids I'm told. You have kids? I've got my daughter Ivanka, she fits on my lap in this car, it's very roomy. Ivanka? No, she's 42. Very beautiful, everyone agrees, very beautiful, magnificent smell. She smells like the women's changing rooms at Macy's, almost as good as the smell of a new car. You ever test driven? I've never driven myself, they'd be asking all the time, drive here, drive here, drive there; can't get away. They always want me to drive but I say no, I don't drive, never felt like it.

Trump, if nothing else, stimulates the imagination and inspires mockery and satire.

Love him or hate him (and make no mistake, I loathe absolutely that abysmal fuckstain) he has an extremely identifiable manner of speaking
