Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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!

Former President Donald Trump, fresh off his third appearance in court as a criminal defendant, delivered a speech full of defiance and bluster on Friday night, insulting prosecutors and declaring that the charges he faces only help his 2024 presidential campaign.

Lol. I hate this man so fucking much but the dude is a master troll.

God damn I just want him to die on the toilet pissing and shidding himself so badly. It's really the only outcome that'd make sense

His supporters would fly into a rage and accuse Democrats of secretly murdering him just like Scalia. At least one of his supporters would probably commit a terrorist act in response.

I’d take that inevitable result over him living any longer.

[–] teuast -4 points 1 year ago

I'd take that as inevitable period at this point.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

His supporters are already making up baseless conspiracies about their enemies and committing random acts of violence.

I'm a fan of the David Carradine.

Your reputation never recovers from that sort of death.

[–] Piecemakers3Dprints -2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

1.) I don't recall his death being anything of note, but then there's always 2.) his career was racist, no-talent shit beforehand anyhow.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (2 children)

You don't recall the autoerotic asphyxiation?

Found hanging by the neck on a curtain cord with his dick in his hand?

Well. Yeah. It was the perfect end to his career.

Death by breath-play accident isn't the poetic justice you think it is. Let's not be shameless, hmm?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I don't kink shame, but unsafe breath play is the height of stupidity.

Also, there are no real conspiracy theories about the death. He accidentally hung himself in a closet while trying to get off.

Now imagine if a prominent Conservative died the same way, you'd never hear about them again.

[–] Piecemakers3Dprints 1 points 1 year ago

Unsafe breath play is redundant.

[–] Spellinbee 0 points 1 year ago

The only reason I remember that is because of Eminem.

That cool. But please put thought into him not being the sole producer of his own bullshit. Personally I believe he's controlled by the mob. Getting played out and sacrificed by other career criminals that want to own America.
