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!

Of course it was a republican.
It's funny, I'm not even expecting the "everything right-wingers complain about is projection" rule to not apply at this point, but it's getting to the point where I'm not sure if they do anything else at all
Trump is calling Kamala a fascist now which no doubt means he's come up with some new fascist schemes
Well, he is talking about the Alien Enemies Act as an immediate action on taking power. There's only really one way to round up what he's saying are millions of people at once, and it's what the Alien Enemies Act was last used for, setting up concentration camps.
I reeeeeeally try to stay hopeful most of his supporters are ignorant of what they're going along with, or we are in serious trouble as a nation no matter who wins.
Either it's projection, or it's the "no U R" response.
When they were called weird, the only response was "no U R".
When they claim that Tim Walz is a sexual predator.... that's projection.
Is someone keeping a tally of how many people went to prison for this guy so far? I can't imagine anyone going to prison for Biden, it's just so crazy.
There is a tiktok that I'm too lazy to go find but basically it boils down to Trump FANS vs. Biden Voters.
Trump fans are willing to break the law (read: not go to jail) because they believe they are above the law. The law is for punishing other people.
Biden/Harris voters are not fanatics, at least generally speaking.
Which just goes to show his lack of presidential authority. - magas (I expect.)
I mean, it's actually kind of impressive how Republicans are just willing to do this. People did it for Nixon, Reagan, and to a whole new level with Trump.
More expected than impressive. They didn't invent warped moral frameworks but they do buy from the market leader. The accusations aren't to convince people to leave the other team, it's to allow people to justify taking those actions themselves. Stochastic vote manipulation of you will.
Not as high as it would be without a plutocracy corrupting everything their wealth touches.
You said it backwards mate
