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!

As Trump ascends to the white house, his ever loyal lawyer and once hailed "Hero of New York" struggles to retain his basic possessions.
Which I find fucking hilarious, but should be a warning to the current MAGA faithful. lol
People always say Trump only cares about loyalty. He actually cares about loyalty times your wealth. If you're poor, you're loyalty is worth nothing to him.
Trump doesn't care about loyalty, he cares about obedience. In fact I'm quite certain he expects duplicity from all of his minions.
Exactly this. His cabinet will be filled with yes-men. Trump's ego is the only thing that matters. Everyone else can burn as long as the ego gets to stay on the violin.
The poor were rich with votes. But that's in the past now.
He really didn't give a shit about any voter.
Only the votes.
I wonder what happened with Laura Loomer?
Maybe she got pregnant, so Trump discarded her.
Along with the boatload of other warnings they heeded. Please.
This! This is the way!! Orange dipshit will never face a consequence, but most of his followers don't have his level of fake money. We know he won't support them beyond what it takes to keep himself out of trouble. Take every last one of those losers down!
It’s no less than he deserves.
Idk.
If we are talking DESERVES than I would be open to discussions of launching him into thr sun somehow.
