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!

He's a terrorist. A literal terrorist. He wants absolute control through fear, intimidation, and violence.
Sounds like Biden would be more than justified to take care of Donald through an official act of the president.
I wonder what Biden would look like in a hoodie

Osama bin Laden killed around 2,977 directly and many others indirectly. Trump killed a lot more with his cuts to benefits and his abysmal covid response, and emboldening of many, many of the vilest elements of society. But guess what? He is still walking free even if he has been convicted of 34 felonies and is guilty of many others (including violent ones) and by all accounts should be spending the rest of his life in prison.
Osama was a chump compared to Trump.
The number I've seen is 800,000 dying due to the shitty Covid response compared to other countries. If even a fraction of that is accurate, it's a staggering number.
Good news was supposed these were mostly his voters, but that doesn't seem to have worked well.
I remember shortly before new years 2020, around Christmas time, Trump's administration cut a lot of funding for Meals on Wheels programs that would have fed thousands of people. It was as if he was desperate to be the ultimate scrooge.
