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!

...yeah...it could potentially be a bit worse than that.
And it will definitely be worse the next election cycle. If Trump is defeated, his movement will still go on, and they will learn from his his literal trials and tribulations.
I'm hoping it runs out of gas, but his dumbass opened a can of worms that even he can't control.
That has been the precise effect of every Republican president since Dwight D. Eisenhower. Just like Dick Cheney before him, Donald Trump will ultimately lose control of the monster he created before fading into irrelevance.
The entire thing is one insane, parasitic mind-virus that became uncontrollably pathenogenic with the assistance of internet nihilists who liked the power of manipulating the stupid, uneducated, religiously fanatical zombie horde that powerful conservatives have generationally cultivated for thousands of years.
Absolute astute observation.
Thanks m8, trying my best 😆
Seems like MAGA is already running on fumes.
Yeah, it's not going to last. Conservatives dump their heroes as soon as they are no longer useful. Nixon had the support of 50% of Republicans right before he resigned. No one talked to him for decades afterwards. He was literally an outcast from modern society.
