For civil discussion of US politics. Be excellent to each other.

Rule 1: Posts have the following requirements:
▪️ Post articles about the US only

▪️ Title must match the article headline

▪️ Recent (Past 30 Days)

▪️ No Screenshots/links to other social media sites or link shorteners

Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. One or two small paragraphs are okay.

Rule 3: Articles based on opinion (unless clearly marked and from a serious publication-No Fox News or equal), misinformation or propaganda will be removed.

Rule 4: Keep it civil. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a jerk. It’s not acceptable to say another user is a jerk. Cussing is fine.

Rule 5: Be excellent to each other. Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, ableist, will be removed.

Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.

Rule 7. No conjecture type posts (this could, might, may, etc.). Only factual. If the headline is wrong, clarify within the body.

He repeatedly said that he had no idea what it was during the campaign.

Edit: just repeating what he said, I don't believe anything that comes out his mouth

Yeah, it's always been like that. He takes 2 sides on every issue so he can wink to the Nazis while also appeasing the 'moderate' Republicans that only care about low taxes (and they don't actually care when Trump ends up doing the crazy thing anyway, all they care about is being able to say 'i didn't know he was going to do that!').

Not good enough. There are lives on the line, ffs, you don't run for President on that shit. Especially since he didn't even make it clear it was considered to most of the voters.
