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!

AOC should be forced to take the Cognitive Test that I just completed at Walter Reed Medical Center, as part of my Physical,” continued the commander-in-chief. “As the Doctor in charge said, ‘President Trump ACED it,’ meaning, I got every answer right. Instead of her constant complaining, Alexandria should go back home to Queens

I miss adults running things.

When we examine her Test Scores, we will find out that she is NOT qualified for office

I’ve got $1,000 on AOC’s test scores over trump’s; especially since he doesn’t know how to capitalize words properly and since she didn’t have a rich father that made huge donations to her college to get her in.

This guy has been calling out everyone else's grades and test scores since at least Obama, while consistently threatening institutions with lawsuits if they release his records. Such stereotypically weak-ass bully behavior.

I don't think there's a person on the planet who would take that bet in good faith, except maybe Trump himself.

He truly believes he's a genius. Everyone else on the planet, including his supporters, knows deep down that he's by far the dumbest person to hold the office.

Snowflake can't take criticism.

You gotta love the fragility of these people who claim they are emotionally stable, unshakable, epic masculine geniuses.

Like shit dude if you're so tuff maybe stop melting down over the most tempered criticisms of your policies.

Someone told him that she's also polling better than he is, lol:

Ocasio-Cortez submitted on Saturday that Trump’s decision to bomb three Iranian nuclear sites was ground for impeachment, arguing that his “disastrous decision to bomb Iran without authorization is a grave violation of the Constitution and Congressional War Powers.”

Anyone that wants to take an "at home" version can do so here.

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

Any way to do so without registering?

“As the Doctor in charge said, ‘President Trump ACED it,’ meaning, I got every answer right.

It’s weird how he always trots out this line of bullshit. It’s sad that his supporters believe him.

He must be a fucking genius. Yeah, that’s it. /s
