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!

Over the Iran attack? I'm pretty sure he broke ranks years ago.

This is why America doesnt have instant recall, outside California, where astroturfed campaigns use it to benefit business interests.

Fuck that quisling fuck. And I sent him money before his election. He can kiss my ass from now on. I'm giving money to anyone who primaries that fucking fuck.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 4 days ago

Of course he does. Useless fucking gonk.

Traitorous ogre

[–] [email protected] 50 points 4 days ago

Brain damage causes conservatism.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 days ago

Ugh I'm so tired of this shitbag

[–] [email protected] 29 points 4 days ago

Imagine somehow being worse than Dr. Oz...

[–] [email protected] 48 points 4 days ago

Man I took so many down votes over fetterman. I never bought into his bullshit. I used to point out he was a silver spoon nepo baby who is useless as a person without his family connections. I used to say that his hoodies and shorts in the house was nothing but a distraction over his lack of substance or honesty. “Hey everyone look at my shorts, im totally one of you!”

I feel vindicated

Didn't this guy already leave the party already?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 days ago

Right? Like I feel like I've read how he's "broken ranks" like 93 times already.

I think the list of times he's voted with the Democrats would be shorter/more notable.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 4 days ago

Fuck you DINO traitor. Have another stroke, maybe this one will do the job you sack of shit.

[–] [email protected] 77 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Fetterman has been and will be a traitor to the US like the rest of Maga. The fact that they keep saying he's a Democrat bothers the shit out of me.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 4 days ago (1 children)

If the party hasn’t kicked him out then he is

[–] [email protected] 32 points 4 days ago

They wouldn't dare. That would be impolite. We need to reach across the aisle, and that means capitulating to everything the Republicans want. They'll tire themselves out at some point.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 4 days ago

Is there a viable D challenger to unseat him in next opportunity?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

Kick that stroked out piece of shit back to PA

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago

Infuriating, but like, still better than Dr. Oz..?

[–] [email protected] 78 points 4 days ago (1 children)

You can't "break ranks" with a party you don't identify with. He's MAGA. Has been for years.

[–] [email protected] 34 points 4 days ago

Severe brain damage really unlocked something in him.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago

Screw Fetterman

[–] [email protected] 9 points 4 days ago

The establishment prefers candidates with cognitive issues. Easier to manipulate.

[–] [email protected] 67 points 4 days ago

Just switch parties already, you brain-damaged sack of shit.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago

Fucking clown

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago

That "break" occurred a while ago. He's a DINO at this point.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Only reason this is funny is because Trump backed out of the arms agreement we had with Iran in 2018…its like he created his own drama and can’t remember it cause he is so stupid.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 4 days ago

That's his way of doing things. He did the same with USMCA (an agreement he himself signed in 2018) when he broke the agreement and put tariffs on Canada and Mexico.

He is completely untrustworthy. He will break any agreement and demand a better deal whenever he thinks he has the upper hand. No one should trust him to hold any deal or treaty.
