Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. Articles must be relevant to US politics and contain quality and original content. Social Media adjacent hosts like Substack are allowed, but ONLY if they tie back to a company/subsidiary. No personal or friend group blogs and no self-promotion. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and re-hosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. 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 other users of being bots or paid actors.
  3. No memes, trolling, misinformation, or low-effort posts/comments (including reposts). If you see posts like this that anger you, do not engage. Report, block, and live a happier life than they do. Any slap-fight is subject to comment removals. Fights full of rule violations will result in temporary bans to cool off.
  4. No manipulating votes via bots or alt accounts; this will result in permanent bans. 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.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in an account ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be permanently banned.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules and use critical thinking when reading, posting, and commenting. Users that repeatedly have 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. The reason(s) behind moderator action(s) are publicly available through the Modlog.

That's all the rules!

Trump's Grandparents were illegal immigrants. They can all go back to Barvaria.

[–] nibbler@discuss.tchncs.de 20 points 2 days ago (1 children)

you can't make him president twice and then send him back to us. he's your responsibility now!

[–] Jaysyn@lemmy.world 21 points 2 days ago (4 children)

How about we split the difference and drop them in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean?

[–] Bane_Killgrind@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 2 days ago

Each take half don't risk he floats

[–] Fartemis@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 days ago

One garbage patch is good enough. We don’t need one in the Atlantic.

[–] crystalmathadept@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

That’s the American Ocean or something

[–] mcv@lemmy.zip 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Right on the mid-Atlantic ridge, and not on Iceland. Like, right where hurricanes move. He can pretend to be a "nuke to stop the hurricane" he thought up.

They were from Rhineland-Palatine.

Calling them Bavarian is like calling someone from San Francisco a Texan.

It's time people realize the holocaust is coming and all democrat politicians, immigrants, and other minorities are in grave danger of being imprisoned and executed

[–] OctopusNemeses@lemmy.world 28 points 2 days ago

The executions have already began with Renee Good and Alex Pretti. Good may have been a knee jerk reaction incident. Nothing is convincing me that Pretti wasn't executed on orders. The 5150 protests were heating up. A unit of the gestapo was sent out specifically to put a bullet in someone's head. The killers were immediately disappeared. The whole thing was orchestrated.

[–] heartSagan5@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

We are being stonewalled from checking on "deportees." It's probably already happening.

[–] FreshParsnip@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I believe there is a high probability executions are already happening in the camps

[–] heartSagan5@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 days ago

yeah, sometimes by sheer neglect.

[–] JustPlainDave@lemmy.zip 21 points 3 days ago (5 children)

I'd extend that to Democrat voters and anyone on the left. Don't forget that the Communists and Socialists are the first ones the Nazis went after.

Elon is an illegal and so is Melonia.

[–] RaoulDuke25@lemmy.dbzer0.com 18 points 3 days ago

The only time you can yell "Go back to Africa!"

[–] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 78 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (42 children)

Isn't this the entire conservative project?

Meanwhile, the more-leftist-than-thou will yell at people that point out that the gEnOcIdEjOe psyop was rather foolish to fall for. Again, many Democrats can be reached on matters of policy. Maybe not all. And there is no perfect politician, that's just not a thing in the real world.

Meanwhile, the conservatives are seeking ways to come for you. Imprison you. Remove you from the country. Possibly murder you.

[–] GuyFawkesV@lemmy.world 39 points 3 days ago (14 children)

Yeah, but it would sure be nice to have candidates to vote FOR rather than against.

[–] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 39 points 3 days ago (26 children)

Without question.

But...there are a lot of things that would be nice in this world. Often you have to make the pragmatic choice.

As long as conservatives continue to live, they will continue to oppress everyone around them.

WTF! Well then, Melania and Leon Hitler should be first in line.

[–] NathanRanch@lemmy.zip 25 points 3 days ago (2 children)

She knows playing the game will distract him from hurting people more generally. He always misses the forest for the trees, something we can always use to our advantage.
