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!

Bitch, YOU just voted by mail!
To be fair, Trump voting at all is super sketchy.
He’s a felon, but they allow felons to vote in Florida.
They do, after an onerous and capricious process that can end in an "I don't feel like giving you that right back".
What? Felons should be allowed to vote, they are still citizens ..
I agree in every case except Donald Trump.
Yeah theres probably more pressing things he should be deprived of though ..
The red-looking pump in his chest, for instance.
And his excuse was because work was important. Which is exactly why everyone else wants this.
I wish golf was my work.
Not really.
Kinda makes you just want to beat the ever hating snott out of a fat overgrown adult oompa loompa, doesn't it?
Now for legal reasons, I'm NOT advocating for violence against the president.
Buuuuuut, hypothetically, just hypothetically, I imagine the fist to face ratio would deliver a very satisfying crunch on your knuckles, if you WERE to punch a 34x convicted felon. Hypothetically, you'd likely have an orange fist after the sun tan wipes off on your hand. Hypothetically, this unnamed 34x felon with bizarely orange suntan, would likely make a satisfying crumple onto the ground. But it's ok, because this unidentified unnamed hypothetical example is ALSO a pedophile, with pending sexual assault charges pending, involving minors. Hypothetically, this is a man who destroyed childrens innocence, took their childhood from them, and then was forced daily to see their abuser on tv facing no consequences. At times even bragging about their crimes. Hypothetically. So punching this hypothetical monster of a "human" would not only be justified, it would be a god damn patriotic thing to do, to confront someone who raped American children. So hypothetically, if you broke their nose while punching their face, I imagine you would instantly become a national hero and icon.
..........guys! I want to punch trump in his stupid face.
I thought his excuse was "I am the President so fuck you"
And his wife, and his son, and probably his entire family…
Unfortunately, he doesn't even need to literally vote anymore.
