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.

I'm frustrated too, but this is the rhetoric of the people you're railing against. Please take a moment and regroup.
But what you're saying is literally what they are, just in the opposite direction.
And to be clear, I think of the two choices that you'd be correct. However, saying people need to have their citizenship revoked because they vote for someone you don't agree with is the opposite of democracy. Just because you don't agree doesn't mean you get to throw out the rules.
You're just being what they are.
Gee I wonder why democrats always get shit on /s. Guh let's just wait for the politicians and corporations to set things right. They have our best interests in mind. Meanwhile Republicans are literally barging into house and taking over. Fucking spineless. It's okay the most important trial in us history is about to get dropped because fani needed a booty call. .... from a Canadian standpoint. Your fucked.
You need to be better than they are, for all our sakes.
Funny thing though: the other side says the exact same thing.
Of course, they are brainwashed and full of hatred, but again, they say the same about us.
I'm just trying to say: you're right, but the other side isn't going for trump because they're insane. They're going for trump because they allowed themselves to be fooled, but they really believe all the crap trump is feeding them. These aren't so much evil geniuses as gullible people who want what they think is best. Since they're told were all evil and out to get them, well, they want to get rid of us. The age old "divide and conquer" strategy.
The more you go "kill em all" the more they will too, that will lead to an ugly outcome. Even if we win, we still gotta live next to them, they're our neighbors, our family, our friends. Maybe focus your anger on those that are riling them up, that tell them to hate. Trump should at this point -frankly- be shot for treason, same for his kids who are very involved. Their followers, however, should be shown and made understood that trump is hatez that trump is lies and corruption.
