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!

So far, everything he's done is reversible.
Stealing all our money? Take it back. Liquidate that asshole (or his possessions);
Executive orders? Executive order to nullify/remove/cancel them;
Beefing up ICE? Reduce it
Except the pedophilia of course. That can't be undone, but nothing the legal system can't handle. There are so many others though, someone should invent the Electric Bench.
All we have to do is get someone with half a brain in that office. This is all fixable. But the sooner, the better.
What are you talking about? People are dead, not just from ICE but the danage he’s done to healthcare and people’s ability to care for themselves has more than definitely led to more death and suffering. Trade deals have been fucked completely up and even allies who have done so much to pretend that the US isn’t a volatile, evil place are finally admitting it. The Democrats have been given permission, again, to move further right. The Whitehouse, as boring a building as it is, currently has a massive hole in the side and it garden was paved over. Billions of dollars have been wasted, thrown straight in the fire.
No, it’s time you admit that you can’t just vote the current evil out of office and have everything be fine. Even a win against the right will only be the first step in a very long fight to get on track.
The dead people would also disagree if they could.
The allies of america would disagree.
Not even true. America's reputation is ruined and well it is not necessary not reversible it well take a long time.
The precedents set in the courts are done. The trading relationships are over. It takes a long time to establish trade and apparently very little time to destroy it. The dollar is done for. The pollution can't be unpolluted from EPA policy rollbacks. You could go on and on.
You can mitigate some of the damage, but that stuff isn't reversible.
