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!

Because they live in lala land. They will do anything but blame themselves.
My brother is almost 40. Severely obeses. Unemployed. And on assistance. He loves Trump and Musk. Every time they do something to fuck someone over? He goes ape shit like it's the best thing in the world. He's so happy. Because he doesn't understand that he's literally in the demographic that they refer to as worthless. He's the sponge on benefits that they hate and he literally cannot recognize or reconcile that fact....
It's so fucking wild to witness.
i bet hes on type 2 diabetes medication, like insulin, and HBP meds, and high cholesterol meds,.
I know a person like this. Another person who's a leftist who lives overseas and apparently doesn't like trump but thinks the dems are worse and repeats trump rhetoric like it's gospel. Oh and also is a Putin apologist (seems to be a lot of crossover there).
And one more who is actually Canadian but somehow still a MAGA manosphere incel and says most of what trump says he will do is fake news, until he does it and then he gaslights and comes up with excuses. No accountability for daddy trump or his little boys.
