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!

What NOW, TheHill? Motherfuckers, this rapist has been off the charts gibbering for YEARS. You could have called this out before the election. You could have thrown everything you have into stopping this obvious descent into chaos and fascism.
And now you have the balls to sit there and be like “wow he’s fucked in the head, gee what should we do”?!
FFS GTFO TheHill.
What now? There will be nothing whatsoever done about it because Trump has a magical aura around him that makes it impossible to impose consequences for anything
Whatever dementia issues Joe Biden may have, there is no denying that his staff was superb at managing them and protecting both Biden and the country.
WTF? Statements like this undermine credibility. Biden was a President with dementia, and that should not have been allowed to happen. The Democrats struggling to cover up what everyone could see is part of what allowed Trump to return. Trump is also suffering dementia, and should not be allowed to continue in the job either. And it has happened before with Reagan. For a good chunk of my lifetime the USA has been led by old men with failing minds.
Reagan was diagnosed with Alzheimer's a few years after leaving office, but his son said the symptoms were there in 84, before he started his second term.
It's like a time honored tradition around here
The symptoms were perfectly obvious when he was in office.
Biden nor trump have been diagnosed with dementia. Mental decline in both of them feels obvious, but suggesting either of them have a diagnosis that they never actually received isn't cool
OK. They have symptoms characteristic of some kinds of dementia. They may not have progressed to the point where the diagnosis is clear, but the symptoms are still a serious concern. Reagan didn't receive his diagnosis until after he left office, but those around him saw clear symptoms starting several years before that.
Nah, they totally have a diagnosis, its just not public. These are people who were elected to the highest office in the country. They have the best doctors in the world following them around.
It’s a jab about how poorly run his house is, not a defense for Biden.
The mentally ill leading the mentally ill chosen by the mentally ill. Thats democracy baby!
If you aren’t comfortable with labeling this as dementia, that’s fine. But there is no question that the president — the man tasked with making critical life and death decisions for both the country and the world — is struggling with mathematical concepts, has vivid “memories” that are not rooted in reality and has an increasingly foggy grasp of past events that did happen. That’s not a medical diagnosis. These are facts we can see for ourselves and we all know, even those of us who voted for Trump three times, that this can’t be allowed to continue.
Wait until he trips walking down the stairs from AF1.
Hope the fall is in 4k
Wow, Trump is truly a man of the people! I too struggle with finding the right words and delusionally believe everything I make up as the absolute truth too. Just the other day I raised the rent 10,000% on my tenants. Trump is just like me. /s
Uncle Joe had the right idea:
Im opting for a 10/22 instead for my first buy i think, shotgun and revolver will follow but not in that order
Im what you call, a classy Fudd. I'd like to plink without bothering the neighbors.
Always has been.
