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!

Oh AP... trump doesn't "survey storm damage" you fucking complicit goons.

He goes from an air conditioned plane to an air conditioned SUV to 5 min photo opp with no walking, no assessments and no rough or unprepared terrain navigated. He is chauffeured to a pre-prepared "devastation movie set" essentially, where handlers have purposefully arrived early to move wreckage and downed tree limbs closer together so a framed TV shot better visually reads as "hurricane was just here". The handlers gather and pile bricks, breaking whole bricks in half, or scuffing and rubbing dirt on pieces that look too clean. They then slightly mess the pile at the last second to seem more natural. When trump arrives, the first thing he does is sees that small brick pile, he points, yells at someone to add two more bricks because he thinks that makes him look smart, decisive and important.

He then lies while standing stationary and completely out of harms way. He meets the widow of a firefighter who died. She's forced into a photo. He calls her by the wrong name, tells her to smile as he does the same with a thumbs up. Local firefighters then give him a fireman hat with his name on it. He says, "you know I could probably put out so many fires... And very easily too..." And all the people around him nod. He is then put back into the air conditioned SUV, given McDonalds food that he literally has a food taster bite first to check for poison, like a medieval king, and then he gets his diarrhea fuel and starts just immediately chunking up that diaper with watery shit and blood from his hemorrhoids. He gets out of the air conditioned SUV, back to the air conditioned plane. He is washed in the plane's shower by one of his sycophants as he can't reach his dick or asshole. They dress him in a brand new set of sealed silk pajamas with a big T on them and then he literally shits the bed as the plane flies to the next town to do it all again.

No AP, trump does not "survey damage" you horrible horrible traffickers of a lie trying to convince us that this boy child is anything but naked, save for the makeup smeared unevenly on his face and the rancid shit smeared around his midsection and throughout the fat folds of his acne-covered gut

I guess he also ticked off a lot of people by causing traffic jams in their disaster area.

traffic jams in their disaster area.

Just what responder don't want.

My experience is that when something like that happens to you, days and weeks are spent going here and there to buy groceries and building supplies. A hurricane took out my mailbox ane time, which took driving to the open post office and sorting it out. Takes time.

Just fuck off, old man.
