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!

His voterbase does not care.
This the fucking world my dad wants us to live in. He begged me tonight to please vote Trump he going save us.
Wonder what my dad would think about this? He hates China says Trump hates China and will make them pay with tariffs. I tried to explain that we pay those not China but it wss like talking to a brike wall.
My dad's the same way, he hasn't pleaded with me about my vote but that may only be because I don't talk to him.
Have you seen "The Brainwashing of My Dad"? I think that's what it's called, a friend recommended it to me and I need to make some time for it, sounds like it covers the impact of garbage like fox news on old men
I've actually heard using parental to controls to block Fox News magically turns right wingers into decent human beings/otherkin forced to live as human beings.
Note that you may have to deal with symptoms similar to addicts coming off their high, because that's exactly what it is.
I heard about that too, they get grouchy for awhile.. but eventually calm down after a lot of fits...
No where do I see that?
JustWatch has some choices, I'd be partial to Pluto unless you wanna rent/buy it
