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!

Every accusation a confession. Every. Fucking. Time
I don't think he was even considering running at that point. Hillary and Bill didn't suggest that he run on the Republican ticket until 2015-2016
Even if he wasn't planning on it, the thought process always seems to be there. "They're going to round us up into camps (because that's what I would do in that position)" "They're going to start a war to stay in power (because that's what I would do in that position)". Regardless of actual position or power, the vile thoughts of these people always seem to leak out in the form of an accusation.
He just seemed so bothered by all the responsibilities at the start too, like I remember him genuinely complaining several times about all the meetings and stuff he had to do.
In attempting to eliminate the alleged regional threat that Iran poses, Trump is inviting an even greater threat to the world. For there is simply no more dangerous world than one filled with nuclear weapons.
Donald Trump doesn't give a fuck about the future. He only cares about himself. And while it's taking his sweet time about it, he is aware that his meat sack will eventually rot away, so he can't waste time.
He doesn't care about making the world a safer place for his children, and their children. He wants people to respect and fear him, now! The military is an extension of his tiny hands, and he's letting us know he can grab us all by the pussy, because when you're the President they let you do it.
Because of his own personal shortcomings. And he was put there because of our personal shortcomings. And he remains there because of Congress’s personal shortcomings. And I complain from my couch because of my personal shortcomings. Everything’s coming up short.
There’s certainly no shortage of comings.
If you know what I mean 😉
Rather than deal with my personal shortcomings I just partake in personal short cummings
Alan approves
Trump Just Made the World Much More Dangerous
Again.
And a week later he will find another way to make things even worse.
.
This pattern will repeat until he is no longer in power. (And depending on who replaces him it could accelerate from there)
I am glad whole world is hating amrikkka
Success is finding what you are good at, and doing it to death
