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.

- 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.

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.

What a clown.
Please show some respect, that's not fair to clowns
He knows he's tanking. This is just a way to distract the dumbass base that believes in flat earth and unicorns.
Article says Trump believes he has a 99.9% approval rating on the border issues......
He is delusional
Anything that Trump doesn't like is either done by paid protesters or considered political acts.
But his cultists will accuse anyone else of being brainwashed.
What a weak, piece of shit, loser.
Next: Trump asks FBI to discover who shit in his pants
I bet it's the same millionaire paying off the protestors! Elon will get him one day..
Trump has said pollsters that have shown his approval ratings sliding in recent weeks should be investigated for "election fraud."
He's going to run for a third term. That's what this means. Buckle up, y'all. We're in for yet another Constitutional crisis that the Democrats will do exactly nothing about.
Strongly worded letters will be written, perhaps sent!
But not too strongly worded, that would just be rude, must maintain decorum.
There is A LOT of anti Trump activity going on. Don't ignore it.
~~Examples~~? Nevermind
The man attempted a coup and faced zero consequences for it. In fact, he was rewarded with a second term as president. Forgive me if I refuse to hold my breath for Democrats to do anything substantial to prevent him from wiping his ass with the Constitution.
What you aren't mentioning is all of the corruption of SCOTUS and the Republicans at the state level that facilitated his success. The Dems did A LOT to expose them... the American people believed the lies and the state governments went along with the coup.
Please explain to me why then the states did not just ignore Scotus, or use there constitutinaly, scotus garenteed rights to determine who the state electors vote for, and order that they could not vote for trump, a thing that is allowable without saying no to the court.
and before you say that a state cannot just ignore the supreme court, need I remind you that right now the president is, and we have had it done by county clerks refusing marage licences before.
The laws on the state and national side would prevent such action generally speaking. POTUS is breaking laws. That simple.
Shhh don’t tell him let him figure it out for himself and then lie about it.
The call is coming from inside the house.
Yeah he is not wounded no he is very not immature and broken sad excuse for a person that has zero insecurities
Might know that would stick him lol
BWAHAHAHHAHAHAHHHAHAHAHHHHAAHAHAHHAH! heh.
This timeline has brain damage.
How is this real life?
I'm going to go out on a limb and say that I understand that Trump might be confused about this. He isn't doing anything that he didn't specifically say he would do when he was asking for people's votes. They loved him before the election. They loved voting for him. I can understand why he might not believe that suddenly they don't like him. Somewhat the same for Musk except he started crashing back with the purchase of Twitter so he should have had time to understand that he was driving his fans away the further right-psycho he got.
One of the rhetorically effective things about his campaign messaging was how broad and vague it was. Pundits, podcasters, influencers, and those manipulating the algorithms of social media, took that messaging, isolated parts of it and recontextualized those parts for specific audiences.
So while he may have assumed he was being very clear about what he was going to do, the messaging many of his voters got was totally detached from his intentions.
A good example of this is people who thought that the tariffs would somehow be a tax levied on foreign countries, not a sales tax on imported goods. Or those who thought the tariffs would be targeted at specific goods categories to benefit their particular industry, not a blanket tariff that impacts their upstream supply chain.
He told his subordinate on the campaign to get voters to vote for him, he assumed that meant convince them he was right, but that was impossible, the only ones that could get him the numbers he liked were the ones who just twisted what he said till people agreed with it.
He isn’t doing anything that he didn’t specifically say he would do when he was asking for people’s votes. They loved him before the election. They loved voting for him. I can understand why he might not believe that suddenly they don’t like him.
This is what happens when you steal an election
The data behind that conclusion is compelling to those who understand both statistics and technology. Most of the US Congress has repeatedly shown that they have neither the capacity nor the inclination to understand either.
Whiny bitch doesn't understand no one likes him
I think he does understand and is bitter Bobby, for it. A long time ago, I read an article that said he'd tried to elbow his way into Palm Beach society and was rebuffed as a loud, obnoxious, vulgar buffoon, came back when he had more money, bought Mar-a-Lago and was this time accepted. Not because of grace, social skills or any redeeming quality but money, meaning he probably very well understands he would have no friends, no loyalty, if he hadn't the means to buy these things, while failing to understand he isn't bright, funny, or valuable as anything other than a pawn. And he's probably very lonely -- money is a cold mistress, and fickle, too. I think he very well understands the consequences of slipping from money, power and usefulness, which is exactly why he fights so hard to keep these things. It isn't because he overvalues himself, but because he very much undervalues himself, thereby placing emphasis and desperate hope on the public, but very false image he's cultivated, with a lot of help from outside entities with much to gain from doing so. Otherwise he would be facing himself in the stark light of what way deep down, the subconscious knows - he's spent his time, money and energy on things everyone has told him_should_ make him happy, and absolutely nothing on what could make him happy, which is being a person he can live with, should distractions fade away.
Let's let the value judgement here be, do we really want the worst parts of ourselves leading us, individually or collectively? Because what we choose individually leads to the outcome.
Stop the count!
Numbers are illegal!
Trump = Eggshell vagina.
(No genderphobe.)
We've got zionists running through the streets of New York assaulting people they perceive to be possibly arab, a mayor who is only there because trump pardoned him for his crimes, and trump, who "demands" the polls show him whatever he wants to see. It just gets crazier, stupider, and more corrupt every day, and we are only 2/48ths of the way to trump being out of office, assuming he leaves peacefully. He needs to be impeached.
The only way trump is ever leaving the office is by succumbing to his cheeseburger diet.
Either that or sudden onset excess orifices disease.
He needs to be impeached.
Was this a joke? He has already been impeached.
Well whatever is after that then. Double secret impeachment.
The answer is "convicted by the Senate" but I like your answer better.
why did the USA elect an edgelord ?
Watch the video that u/tburkhol posted in this thread. It's actually quite enlightening on this topic.
