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!

Ok. It’s an estimated solid 45 blue electoral votes so let’s go ahead and make Canada a state!
I mean if it happened it'll destroy the GOP and conservatives electorally so silver linings.
Wonder why he doesn't want Mexico as the 51st state?
Or puerto Rico?
Or anything else South or across an ocean?
This is a great example of what is, to me, the most bizarre part of this bizarre timeline - this stinky-assed overgrown toddler actually believes this.
The way it works in his warped mind:
- He wants to annex Canada, therefore annexing Canada is just and right and proper and smart and best, because everything he wants automatically is. (And a side note - his Kremlin handlers almost certainly planted the idea of annexing Canada in his mind in the first place, though it's an open question whether he knows that or not).
- Canada unsurprisingly opposes annexation.
- But it's his idea (not really, but that's a distinction he's not equipped to make), therefore it's the bestest and beautifulest and perfectest idea ever in the history of ever, and Canada's just being nasty and disagreeable about it.
And that's it. That's the extent of the thinking in his overgrown toddler mind - "I want and you won't give so you're mean.
The Cunt's really trying to take over the world by merely whining about it like a spoiled brat discovering happy meal toys
Well whining backed by one of the world's most powerful military.
What's the feeling over there.. if Trump tomorrow announced a military invasion to free Canada from fascists or whatever, would the military comply and start gunning down Canadians? I know there are a few more steps to it before such action can be taken (or at least I hope there are), so I suppose what I'm wondering is if there are enough Americans who think Canada is evil to happily rise to the challenge?
An absurd thought, but these are absurd times.
Meant to be ever since he decided so a few weeks ago? Yeah, that ain't how "meant to be" works
It is in the mind of a narcissist like Trump. He has always assumed the world revolves around him.
Nasty-ass Trump is meant to die in jail.
So there.
