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!

Let’s hope he strokes out on the shitter. Then we can just flush him.

I want it to happen on camera so I can bookend it with Charlie Kirk.

Accept nothing but a public appearance as proof of good health.

[–] Bronzebeard@lemmy.zip 16 points 1 week ago

The best hide and seeker, many people are saying.

Hopefully no one finds him

Last time this happened, the indicators that something was up was Vance not being able to keep his mouth shut and tweeting about it. Along with a 300% increase in take out pizza orders at near the pentagon.

I cant imagine they are fully staffed right now, but if I find out something happened because an inordinary number of feds need to get late night pizza, Ill eat my shoe.

I am hoping he lives long enough to prosecute his half of a civil war. We want the bad guys to constantly step on rakes, and Trump is very good at that. Ideally, he should die in the middle of that, so that Thiel, Elon, and the rest of the dickhead gang can fight over the throne at the worst time possible for the Dark "Enlightenment"...no, the Dim Ignorance.

The less good people have to die because of these jackasses, the better.

"He had to have another stroke so that his face will droop on both sides," suggested Bluesky user Bob.

Dang, Bob. Nice one.

It's a day ending in 'y' so he's probably just golfing

[–] Formfiller@lemmy.world 11 points 1 week ago

Arrest everyone in this administration

[–] selkiesidhe@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

He's just hiding like the fucking coward he is. He didn't like knowing all those smart successful people weren't willing to clap for his brilliance.

Remember how he much he desires to be acknowledged and thought highly of by those types.

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 1 week ago

Too bad he's probably too narcissistic to take the Hitler way out.

[–] myfunnyaccountname@lemmy.zip 10 points 1 week ago (2 children)

He was slurring his last big speech as well. This isn’t new. He has been doing this for a while. But it’s also the beginning of the month, time for some mystery IV injections.

[–] echo@lemmy.tf 9 points 1 week ago

He's too busy having a weeklong fuckfest with Satan again. It's almost time for the baby.

[–] desmosthenes@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago

he’s hiding scared more likely

[–] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

Did Racist Grandpa shuffle off the nursing home property?

[–] sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 week ago

I mean, there are only so many golf courses, he's on one of them getting in all those strokes, best place for it.

Wasn't there a nazi episode on the the original star trek that might explain this?
