It's like 2 bullies against one weak kid. One bully stands by and watches the other nearly beat the kid to death. The one standing by thinks himself a humanitarian when he says "Hey, that's enough. You kill him and we'll both be in big trouble."

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!

Ahahahaha get REKT you dumb fucking droopy cunt
Ho does look and sound a lot like Droopy, doesn't he? Though, as I recall, Droopy was smart.
He didn’t earn those elections. His political and corporate backers paid for him to win. They paid to rig the elections and blanket campaign ads in front of all the rural poorly educated morons in America.
Cheeto Mussolini never earned anything in his life. He was given a fortune from his father, which he squandered and ruined every business, he laid his hands on.
The fact that people are arguing about democracy and voting and how this piece of shit got in the office really shows that they missed the greater issue in America. Corporate powers want everyone to fight against each other over social issues, cultural issues, and anything else that distracts people from understanding who is actually in charge.
On top of all the utter ridiculousness of...well, EVERYTHING now, one would be hard-pressed to make this picture look like more of a deranged evil person than it already does. He looks, acts, and talks like all the worst parts of humanity, and he was put into the most powerful position on the planet. TWICE. I can't even.
Because the most powerful country in the world is evil. He's the best to fund a genocide in order to build on cheap real estate using slave labor.
the most powerful country in the world is evil.
I can't disagree. The thing is, with how complicit every other supposedly democratic government in the world is being about it, none of them are much better.
Look, if he can facilitate a lasting peace in the Middle East (without turning Palestine into a golf resort), he deserves the thing. But the idea that he can force an agreement and then get a Nobel two days later is flat out dumb.
It's not like an Oscar, which is only given for this year's movies. They give it out for major achievements that take years (decades?) of hard work to achieve.
It's not a peace, it's a conquest. Trump's involved because he wants a piece of the action. Same with Sisi, another vulture looking at a tasty carcass to dismember.
Notice that none of the peace negotiations have included legitimate representatives of the people of Gaza, mainly because Israel and Hamas have murdered or exiled them all.

The only prize he deserves is the Nobel Piece of Shit prize.
There's a lesson to be learned here behind just idiot presidents and Nobel prizes. In almost every situation, Regime change if more effective is spear headed internally by an opposition leader rather that forced by an external power.
Oh no how unfortunate.
But they did give it to one of his Venezuelan toadies as a consolation prize. I wonder if that was intended to piss him off even more.
The deadline was like 11 days before or after he was sworn in.
