Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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!

"But how could the Leopards eat MY face???" screamed the man who voted for the Leopards-Eating-People's-Faces Party at the Leopards-Eating-People's-Faces Party rally.

Absolute fucking clowns.

Very clear example of the media being very divorced from middle class realities.

Bro, we don’t feel bad for poor people who voted for their demise, and you think we would care about CEOs?

Stock Market is Up.

That's all these people care about. The US can become a country that only knows how to make weird AI advertisements and MLM scams, and so long as GDP goes up these people will think everything is fine.

Bet they won't stop voting Republican tho

[–] [email protected] 19 points 3 days ago

They are the only game in town, particularly at the state and local level.

Republicans are in a suicide pact with their party. If you try to leave, your peers will kill you that much faster.

Missing from the article: lessons learned.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 3 days ago (1 children)

He won't learn

These idiots are constantly saying that despite the shitfuckery, they'd vote the same way again

[–] [email protected] -3 points 3 days ago (3 children)

But maybe if I somehow make them feel bad about themselves they will change, right?

I did not vote for a neutron bomb to wipe out supply chains and small businesses...

Yes you did jackass. People like him are the reason I don't have a job anymore.

Heartbreaking? Nah. More like utterly infuriating that they were duped despite the prior term and decades of demonstrated corruption and incompetence.

I’ve no sympathy at all.

[–] [email protected] 121 points 3 days ago

I'm heartbroken. But not for this motherfucker.

Craig Fuller thought he was voting for business savvy, not economic shock therapy.

Does he know anything at all about the felon who has left a long trail of failed businesses and can bankrupt ~~a casino~~ three casinos? Trump is doing pretty much exactly what he said he'd do and any CEO that doesn't know that deserves to be unemployed.
