Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

MODERATORS
On the surface of only the quote. I agree.
If a felon was in the White House, I think we'd finally see some genuine prison reform, and if we're lucky, for profit prisons being outlawed.
Can you imagine a Danny Trejo type in the White House? Someone who deeply cares that prison is reformative and not punishment?
But not Donny Felon. He's just going to commit more crimes.
Crime, with a little it of treason.
God I would vote for Trejo. I'm not sure it would work well in the end. I'm not sure he could manage to do the proper negotiations to get anything useful done. But it would be one hell of a statement.
Get the guy that played Dwayne Elizando something Mt. Dew Comacho to be Trejo's VP
Considering roughly half of Congress currently is strongly AGAINST getting anything done, much useful. Their entire plan is to stop everything and blame the other side.
The worst part is it's working :(
