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!

Opportunity for a 4-way split? Sanders and AOC can make a new party called “Freedom Party” so we can have something other than the establishments.

I am guessing somewhere between %0.1-0.5. That is how many tech bros there are.

Pretty funny given the guy can never be president.

He's very creative when it comes to pissing his money down the drain, I'll give him that.

You support Elon Musk's party because the Republicans ripped you off.

I support Elon Musk's party because it will dilute the voters.

We are not equal.

Maybe when this fizzles out we can get bipartisan support to change our First Past the Post voting system.

This will ultimately fail until that changes.

Ahhahahahahahaha. Not even Trump was this stupid. I wonder what way this will split the vote though. I think on the right but who tf knows who would follow this.

"America Party"

Americans really are the ultimate parody of themselves. Have fun with your civil war.

[–] [email protected] 29 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Not just the USA or even just North America. It's apparently a party for South America as well!

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 week ago

Tbf assuming South America is just kinda ours to mess with or else just forgetting about it is a pretty common thing for the US to do, it tracks

Ross Perot 2.0

What kind of shitty click bait is this?

The richest man in the world officially announced on Saturday that he has officially formed a new political party to challenge Republicans and Democrats alike.

He fucking tweeted that it was created, literally nothing official.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 week ago (1 children)

And when the president tweets it's for some reason official and should be followed... We live in a really stupid age where the government and politics in the US is governed by social media.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (2 children)

All it takes is for one determined furry to pull up their programming socks and hack into Truth Social and start posting under Trump's name and we'll see that dry up real quick, unless he wants to make all his official announcements surrounded by uwu's and lewd pictures of Pokémon.

Dollars to donuts it's going to be stupid easy to do as well, because Trump is incapable of hiring competent employees or of paying whoever he does hire.
