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!

isn't that racist? :x
Not in this context. It could be in a different context, but not this one. The comparison is about how Republicans are willingly subservient to Trump.
Un·cle Tom ˌəŋ-kəl-ˈtäm. 1. disparaging : a Black person who is overeager to win the approval of whites (as by obsequious behavior or uncritical acceptance of white values and goals) 2. disparaging : a person who is overly subservient to or cooperative with authority.
"I just love you!" Scott said to more laughter from the crowd!
"That’s why he’s a great politician!" Trump joked.
That's certainly why he's a Republican politician. And Trump-slobbering and debasing yourself is basically a requirement, so by that standard, he's certainly a "great" one.
Oh well gee wizz that sure is a scorcher right there donchya know. Really article worthy stuff, just incredible. The WWE better be taking notes so they can really talk smack on each other the right way before their next match. Those teens on Xbox live could learn a thing or two from these guys. My boots are really quavering at the thought.
in a party where they are all competing to prostrate themselves in front of a silver-spoon-in-mouth, draft-dodging, tax-evading, pussy-grabbing, serial sexual assaulter, six-times bankrupt, vulgar, bragging, sexist, criminally corrupt, morally bankrupt, compulsive lying, un-American; in-your-face racist, Tim Scott seems to be going for the title of king lickspittle.
I love how Trump and Biden jokes are written by the same guy
