Welcome to the News community!

Rules:

1. Be civil


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. 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. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.


2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.


Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.


Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.


5. Only recent news is allowed.


Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.


6. All posts must be news articles.


No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.


7. No duplicate posts.


If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.


8. Misinformation is prohibited.


Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.


9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.


All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.


10. Don't copy entire article in your post body


For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

A new poll shows that about 4 in 10 Americans say Trump has been a “terrible” leader in his second term.

The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research also found that about 2 in 10 think he has done an average job in his presidency and 3 in 10 says he’s been a great or good president.

44% say Trump’s focused on the wrong priorities in the AP-NORC poll, 21% said an even mix and 10% don’t know

You completely missed the point, like the other commentor who dropped a similar load of excrement on my comment did. Let me spell it out for you. Don't promise the sun, moon, and stars, when your plan is to put my face in the dirt for the corpos who actually pay your bills. Dem voters get tired of that shit.

Are you saying that Trump fulfilled more of his promises than Dems? He said he'd decrease the cost of living, but it went up. He said he'd bring manufacturing back to the US, but instead he's killing US manufacturers. Look at the fucking stock market. He didn't deliver on the promises that matter.

By your logic, Dems should keep doing what they're doing but make additional promises for random actions. "Well, they might not have fixed healthcare like they promised, but they did eat the 10 club sandwiches they said they would, so at least they're fulfilling most of their promises."

I see your whataboutism and respond with what your mother should have told you: Two wrongs don't make a right. Does anything you said have anything to do with promising us the sun, moon, and stars and delivering more cashola for the moneyed class?

I prefer Dems to Reps, but man, you got your head so far up the Democratic Party's ass with this bullshit you're spewing here that you can taste what they had for lunch!
