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!

Graduating from cancel culture to deportation culture.
and this is another reason why libertarians rightfully booed him.
Right. Can’t “deport” your own citizens, as people have already pointed out. However, it’s just an indication of what they’d prefer to do, which is jail them or send them to re-education camps or something.
The legality of deporting citizens has not stopped America from doing it anyways in the past.
Yeah, but they were brown. So that’s their excuse.
oh yeah. well ill deport folks who deport deporters!
Something something CANCEL CULTURE.
TIL that Trump obviously doesn't know what "Deport" actually means...
I get deported back to my own country constantly. Every day, against my will, I find myself here.
He has a very tenuous grasp on the English language, and politics, and economics, and how the weather works, I'm not quite sure what he's actually good at...?
He's a grandmaster con artist. It's his only skill.
No he's dog shit at that too, he's just got decent pr team and a significant amount of paid cronies.
The students will be deported to Idaho
Against the Gaza what? Say that again?
Trump didn't mention Gaza at all. He just said he would deport student protestors, in order to make foreign students "behave".
He purposely uses vague language even when talking about specific things so that 1) he can't be held absolutely to account for anything and 2) his followers can fill in the blanks themselves with whatever they want most.
- he doesn't know much about anything himself
8th Amendment, you orange gorilla.
I would say this is primarily a 1A thing, but, yeah, I don't disagree either.
He isn't going to uphold any amendments, he is going full dictator
Yeah, but y'know, both sides are just the same, right? Better not vote rather than vote for the lesser evil, since lesser evil is still evil, amirite?
/s
Lolbruh, none of that shit’s gonna matter.
Fargin icehole...
Suddenly the uncommitted feel like voting again.
Nah, there's a good chance nothing will happen to them, so they don't care.
I wish
Nah dude both sides are gross y'know?
/S
Donors
Hard to avoid these donors when all you read is donors about donors at donor event donor here’s another article about donors.
We deserve names.
Seriously. The original Washington Post article went to lengths not to identify anyone. FFS.
They won't because those donors probably give to both parties and are friends with the owners of the neoliberal outlets such as WaPo, NYT, MSNBC etc.
To quote George Carlin: it's a big club and you ain't in it.
Deport to where Donny? You can't just boot out Americans.
Mexico; it's happened before.
They'll do a DNA test and deport them to whatever area they have the most ancestry in. Guess I'd be going to Germany!
You gotta wake up and see the threat in front of you.
Yet
Staten Island.
Now now, not even TRUMP would be that cruel!
He has a great system to know where someone is from. Used it on Obama. Very smart. The best I'm told. (/s just in case)
If you don't like Trump, you're obviously not a real American! Off to Ruanda with you!
God the whole brither movement was stupid. I never once heard any of them deny that his mother was his real mother just that she went to Kenya to give birth. Which is fucking stupid as shit because she was born in fucking Kansas. They way they were on about the whole thing I assumed both his parents were born outside the US but nope.
Not stupid. Look where it got Donny. It's just pure racism.
the purest
That’s what you think
