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.

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.

Lets hope thats indicative of his chances to be reelected
They'll still vote for him. The (R) outweighs anything a Democrat could do.
Hes like a rabid dog gnawing at but afraid to swallow its meal
These people are absolute freaks.
Other reasons people left early: Trump showed up an hour late, meaning he didn’t finish until 2.5 hours after his scheduled start time. People got places to be, man, respect their time. (I guess it’s not like Trump is known to respect others in general.)
Donald Trump arrived an hour late to a rally
And yet he chastised the organizers at the black journalist thing for not being set up on time.
That delay was on him, not equipment failures. Spoiler: he lied again.
You've got to be shitting me. Is that for real? Any news article to confirm?
It was reported by I think NBC Chicago that Trump refused to participate if they went ahead with the live fact checking as planned, which produced a standoff that delayed proceedings by about a half hour.
I'm not sure this has been substantiated by other sources.
EDIT: It's mentioned briefly here, but somebody went into more detail in a tweet I don't have on hand.
So there was supposed to be fact checking live on the screen, and he refused?
This was an excerpt about it I grabbed from elsewhere.
Right, that was it, thank you!
It’s 100% an idiotic power dynamic thing
Guess he's on CP (Corrupt Politician) time.
Also CP (child predator - his own, no less) time
He was too busy watching CP to make it there on time. Creepy ass old weirdo.
I’m going to stop calling them “Trump supporters” and start calling them Trump and his pedo ring.
Also, here’s a small poem I wrote:
Matt Gaetz
Date rapes
By the seashore
Just call them weirdos.
Republican trash
Pollutes the soul of freedom
Vote and punch Nazis
He sells
Her hell
By the seashore?
I just refer to them as cultists, because that's what they've become. Especially once they adorned themselves with their sanctimonious ear patches to become one step closer to the visage of their one true Don
Enjoy this weird clip of cultists “dancing” with 👂 ear tampons adorned 🙄
Bath salts may or may not have been involved
I'm not exaggerating when I say that's one of the worst minute long videos I've ever seen. I'd rather cartel execution videos or one guy one cup.
“One guy one cup”
Lol 😂 that got me
Not enough of them left early. They were clogging up traffic when I was trying to pick my kid up from band practice. Driving like assholes, too. One straight up ran a red light, and another cut me off and nearly caused an accident, then flipped me the bird when I honked. (How could I tell they were trump supporters? Easy: These weirdos plaster bumper stickers all over their cars.)
One of the most depressing things I've seen all week was a highway sign that said all the parking for the rally was full. I hate being surrounded by these people.
Every trumped out ride I’ve ran into has always driven like the most lawless asshat. They’re usually, speeding, tailgating, cutting people off, etc. Law and order? riiiggghhht.
Just a little PSA. When I was homeless I quickly figured out that nearly all vehicles with MAGAt stickers are unlocked... And the chances of there being a gun in there go up by like 25% per sticker.
Do what you will with this information.
If they have trump stuff and a Jesus fish, do they speed or go 10 under the speed limit?
How many giant "Rebel" stickers on the back of the most popular pick up truck in North America did you see? More than one I bet.
Every damn vehicle leaving the area had some dumb sticker on it. But the person who ran the red light were in a late model Lexus and the who cut me off was in a busted-ass Altima.
the one who cut me off was in a busted-ass Altima.
Well that tracks.
Can you translate for the non-Americans?
Nissan Altima drivers are somewhat notorious here for aggressive driving and the cars are often in rough condition, to the point that it's often memed. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=altima+drivers+meme&t=fpas&iax=images&ia=images
Thanks for that! Why did they become a thing?
Altimas are fairly affordable and have pretty solid performance for their size, so that sets up a certain likely scenario of someone with poor credit and a desire to go fast to wind up in a beat up Altima.
Lots of pictures in that article... look at those weirdos
I love how Trump forced the poster designers to make Vance smaller even if it's the same amount of characters.
While I'd fully expect two-scoop donald to throw a fit over it, that's also just pretty standard graphic design. Helps differentiate the vp candidate from the main candidate.
Well, it's pretty common for the VP name to be in smaller print, to indicate that they're two different names.
