Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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!

You could feel the anger and hate when he said that.

I hate these people so very much.

It is mind-blowing how dumb this man's texts are when you actually listen to what he says

Just your daily reminder that the President of the United States is a deranged lunatic.

He's not even the first. Sadly Republicans don't have shame anymore.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 19 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

The Republican Party is over. It's the MAGA Party now. Always call them that, and insist the Republican Party is dead. They'll really hate that. They LIKE being Republicans, so let's take it away from them.

[–] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 4 points 5 hours ago

"maga" == just what the Republicans have been for decade upon decade. It's just that they are being more public about it now.

From "Innocent until proven guilty" to "Maybe we should go after you"

I hate our shithole country and I hate our shithole leadership. We can't be rid of this pedo rapist and his nazi goon squad fast enough.

Going after free speech AND free press. Nice

[–] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 2 points 5 hours ago

"Free speech absolutists"

Not even projecting it, just owning it.
