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!

Trump: I don't want to be financially responsible for my rape babies.

Crowd: boo!

How booing is good here? There are many other reasons to boo at him, but this one is not such reason.

Just goes to show that trump isn't bad enough for a lot of Republicans. It's unfathomable.

Where have I seen this?.. Criticizing the Great Leader for not being militant enough.

I'm not surprised.

Are you a MAGA?

The significance of the headline is that the right is fracturing.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

Are you a MAGA?

How supporting abortions is MAGA? How can non-American be MAGA? Oh, right, Trump said it, so now it is MAGA.

I think beind "against whatever Trump says" is harmful. Today Trump says in support of abortions, tomorrow that corpobrained will say something in support of UHC. Should then everyone start hating UHC?

The significance of the headline is that the right is fracturing.

It's more like plaster fell off exposing long-existing cracks, but ok.

They're really going to force him to eat the ookie cookie that is being in support of an exception-less national abortion ban.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

They're not going to make him say it, but they know a wink's as good as a nod to a blind man.

When I saw this post scrolling by the thumbnail really got my attention...

That little piece of black mic in front of his nose...it just reminded me of some figure from the not so distant past...he also rallied huge crowds and they were all cheering for every single word he said.

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

Lol you are right. Need to start Photoshopping black mics on all the photos

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

It's a different thumbnail now...what a pity.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 3 months ago

They made excuses for his porn star affiliations, his “take their guns away” comment, but this may be too far.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago

And yet at the end of the day they will conveniently forget about this and still support their God-Emperor no matter what.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 3 months ago

They can all eat shit and die. Worthless traitor filth.

[–] [email protected] 51 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Just in case someone truly believe that all this s**tshow would just disappear without Trump around. Let's face it, he's a symptom of the problem, not the main cause.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 3 months ago (1 children)

The abortion shitshow isn't about Trump, but the neo-monarchism shitshow is.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 months ago

Corporate neo-feudalism. It is not about monarchy.
