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!

Let's not split hairs. Barr used to have to get him distracted by offering him death row inmates to kill.
The cruelty isn't just the point, Trump as an individual is a fucking monster who gets off on hurting people.
It it any shock that a rapist gets off on controlling and hurting others? It doesn't shock me in the slightest, which is why he was always a clear and present danger.
I remember about a month before the election in 2016 saying to a friend "God damn it, I think we are gonna get Brexited and people won't see this coming, but he's going to win."
I'm not sure it's deliberately cruel, like sadistic. It seems more indifferently cruel, like they just don't care. Seems to be all about money, how to make profit. Doesn't give a shit about any repercussions. For stuff like this, it's the poor that suffer the most, then everyone else.
The rich will just buy Fiji water, or something... They just don't care.
But you might be right, maybe they actually are sadistic, can't get inside his head.
Many of them are 100% actively cruel, I assure you.
And a huge fucking mistake to elect him again. Unbelievable really.
It's not a "mistake". It's mental illness on a national scale.
