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

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!

This is the level of our national discourse. And yeah the republicans started it and are worse in many ways. And maybe this sign is fake and just meant as a funny joke. But Jesus Christ we're killing ourselves.
The billboards like this are oftentimes from Republicans that are anti-MAGA, this one however is some guy that was a low level cabinet member of Clinton who decided to create his own PAC (Mad Dog PAC).
It isn't the DNC putting these up, it's basically people that just want to troll Trump, and when Trump stops running I'm sure most of these groups will move on to other things.
The way things are going, if and when Trump exists there will be a crazier guy or gal replacing him. And we'll keep circling the drain trying to make the other guy look stupid.
I'm not 100% sure on that. They will 100% double down on evil, but they will do it like the Turtle, just a giant smirk as they fuck Americans over. I think they know the batshit stuff doesn't really work outside of Trump, not like backstabbing and sneaky subversion of our country does.
The dude is a grifter. He spread so much fake shit about mueller investigation along with that crazy chick louise mensch
Just google ‘Louise Mensch Claude Taylor’ you’ll see the bs

Yeah this guy doesn't have the most reputable friends, but are you saying you believe Trump/Barrs spin of the report? Trump's DOJ did him a solid, and Barr did another Iran-Contra style cover up.
Lol how did you even come to that conclusion? All I’m saying is this dude lied on twitter about being an insider to the mueller investigation and leveraged that into this PAC that he takes a salary on.
Sorry, I read that as not believing in the report itself, as many believe the Trump/Barr version of the report, stating the opposite of what Mueller actually wrote.
As for this guy, I kinda remember him and noticing he was a bit ... out there. However, his billboards get under Trump's skin and that's fine by me. And I would imagine if you ran a PAC you would take a salary from it, and it looks like besides a $100 donation to a Maryland Dem none of that PAC money is actually going into politician coffers either. Way too many of these PACs and SuperPACs dumping millions of dollars into local/state elections to swing votes.
I think you're being downvoted because if you had a reputable link you'd just link it.
Any time someone says "just Google it" it sets off massive bullshit alarms.
You’re right
Fair enough. :) Tell you what though... Green shirt and denim jeans sounds like a solid combo.
