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!

I don't think Trump is capable of real management of any kind. I believe his reigns are, "did they word fuck my godhood", and "did the news I watched seem credibly embarrassing enough that I wish to deny they ever word fucked me". With the added corrupting caveat of, "how many word fuck whores are currently ready to slut into the position".
If I told you the country was run by Fox, I don't think it could be disproved. How else do you reconcile recruiting their news anchors. He is the holotype of why the nepotism of gross inherited wealth is a terminal cancer. Pass on as many upper middle class trust funds for life as you would like, but no other wealth is transferrable in any way. Foreign held funds by the deceased are a crime of sedition, and forfeiture of citizenship. That does not cause collapse, filters every problem name you know now if it had existed, and will eventually fix the real problem. Japan already has this in place. Intelligence is not hereditary in humans, but wealth is. This is the succession crisis of monarchy, at a new stage where the elite of the Royal court have the same power and influence as the age of monarchies, and we have the same problem again. •»ÀīÙ¬§¬¶¬×
The country IS run by Fox. Most of Trump's talking points are things he heard on Fox the night before.
