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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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!

What a fucking timeline. Voting one dumbfuck of a failed game show into office has brought down all of this shit on us. So much for checks and balances, LOL.
Nah, Trump isn't the cause, he's just a symptom, probably the worst symptom of the decades long efforts of the GOP to undermine campaign finance. education, ethics laws, and any other law or rule that impeded their efforts towards fascism. They've been working on this since Reagan and we are at the culmination. They have taken control of every branch of government and with Trump as a figurehead, they are tearing down the last planks of democracy.
Yeah, like everything else in his shitty life, Taco just slapped his name on others' work and called it his.
But having him in office has enabled all this dumbassery to be accelerated. There might have been all the same number of dumbfucks in the country before Taco put Brainwormz in power, but Fauci was still there and there was not a thing the fucking idiotic sisterfuckers that are the antivaxxers could do about it.
Now those shitheads have the keys to the place. I fucking hate it. It's quite literally putting the dumbest, most venal and most unqualified people in charge of the health of every American.
That's kind of the point. Trump getting elected not once but twice shows how broken the country is.
Yep the USA is cooked. Trump represents a mental illness epidemic, and a collapse in education so significant it is practically guaranteed to destroy the empire.
You simply can't rehabilitate tens of millions of brainwashed morons. Antivaxers don't switch back to accepting science... People forget that most of the "true believer" nazis died in battle in WW2; that the war resulted in a cultural and ideological "reset", which allowed Europe to rebuild and move on. Without forceful removal, the cancer of fascism will continue to grow and fester until civil war or WW3.
Yeah, that's going to work.
Say it with me:
FASCISM
If you give up and roll over, you are complicit.
