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!

He desperately feels the need to continually latch on to famous people of consequence. That's how he deludes himself into thinking he deserves to be in their company.

Half his age, and has a pulse?

Less than half, but let's be honest here. It's because she has more money than him : P

Pretty sure her cat has more money than him. And the only real doubt there is…. Does she even have a cat?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

She has three

In case you don't want to click, their names are Meredith Gray, Olivia Munson, and Benjamin Button.

Heh. I might be 'meh' when it comes to swift... but I'll be Team Button all day.

I bet not only do they all have more money, their PR staff is waaaaayyyyy better, too.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

And they're all waaaayyyyy better looking!

Because he wants to dupe people into voting for him. Same old con.

He's terrified of competent and intelligent women who see through his bullshit. And even though he's the former president, she has a way bigger megaphone.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago
