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!

I hope someone finally nails him with treason after he gets out of office.
In not usually one to support capital punishment, but he really seems to have crossed that threshold to justify it...
Of course, that's for the courts and the jury to decide. If they ever do their jobs...
Lol, my dude...History will gladly demonstrate for you, that when you have a fascist leader already in power, there is only one way they "leave office"...and it doesn't permit much time for a trial after.
Then would anyone care to demonstrate what you mean?
There's two ways that one way can occur. And I fear it will be the passive means.
lol, no. Forget about it.
Even if Dems manage to get control again, they're going to go straight to "we need to heal the divided country" mode, which means frequently compromising with the Republican minority and 'forgive and forget' for all of the Republican's crimes. After all, they wouldn't ever want to prosecute anyone in the other party -- that might make it look as if they're pushing politically motivated prosecutions!
Let me dream, it's all I have...
How about instead, you start dreaming of an indefinite general strike that grabs the economy by the balls until our demands are met?
I can dream about more than one thing, you know...
I hope he has a stroke and goes into a shut-in syndrome coma
And leave vance in charge without even dispelling his loyal base?
Look, I want to see the guy kiel over as much as anybody, but we all know Vance can't get elected, so waltzing into the presidency without an election and simultaneously dropping all the baggage of his predecessor is probably going to be the best thing that could happen for the republican party.
Much better if we let the guy's time expire, let the voters deal out the consequences, and let the republican party shatter without a clear leader to take his place...
