  2. Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
  5. Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.

A lot of people voted based purely on their economic feelz; they think that they're struggling economically, and so they voted for a person that took over from Obama. (...After Obama had presided over rebuilding the economy that crashed under Dubya.) If Trump goes through with his tariffs and deportation schemes, then we're going to have record inflation, and everything is going to get so much more expensive. In 2026, will these same people be looking at 2021-2025 and be saying, wow, I was doing so much better then, I should vote for someone that isn't a Republican this time? Or will they think that maybe we need more of the same?
