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!

You can always spot a republican traitor by the plethora of spelling errors.
I dunno man, this one seems like a Russian troll. Though I guess that line has gotten pretty blurry.
If they were russian their english would be better. Only republicans and very small children are that bad at spelling.
Hey, I'm bad at spelling and I'm neither! I'm just a poor speller.
But you have the ability to proofread and choose to omit words you're unsure about, or look up their spelling if you want to use them. People who use misspelled words display not only poor spelling, but also a complete lack of self-reflection and will to improve. These qualities are quintessential in a republican (bad spelling is not, necessarily), and when someone criticises a misspelling, it is actually these qualities that draw their ire.
The trile was for high crimes and misdameners if he was guilty he would of been removed from office and then sent over to the doj to be sentenced if it was a criminal offence
No, it isn't. The DOJ is not involved at any point in an impeachment, and it is entirely a political process, not a fact finding or justice seeking one. If, say, a senate full of Republicans wants to look away from matters and not vote to have him punished, he won't be. Like he wasn't. And the consequences they can impart don't include imprisonment or fines, just removal from office and a ban from holding office.
Most voted guilty for impeachment. What do you make of that?
Spoken (barely) like someone who has no idea what he's talking about. Before you respond, get a spell checker and brush up on your grammar.
Look, that guy has a lot of lies to post on a lot of social media. The people who are going to fall for it are too stupid to catch the bad spelling and grammar, so there's no point in wasting time trying to look like his IQ is in the upper half of the curve.
Not to mention a basic understanding of what impeachment is and isn't
