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!

Could someone please take one for the team and end all this.
Why not you?
I got kids. :( also I am not very "accurate" or even knowledgable of the required implements.
Assassination is not going to work. The line of succession is pretty shitty.
Ain’t no line of succession for Elon.
Too true!
we just keep the hits coming until shit makes sense again.
Thomas Crooks tried.
There were very few attempts on Hitler's life and he directly killed millions of people. Trump will indirectly kill millions and I wouldn't be surprised if there are no more attempts on his life.
If ≥42 is 'very few', what do you consider to be a normal number of assassination attempts?
Considering what he was doing? Yes, that's very little.
634 is the current record, I believe.
69
420
They are mostly foreigners. Until the next pandemic hits, trumps cuts probably hit the world’s most impoverished, most oppressed people the hardest. It shouldn’t make a difference that they’re not Americans since people are people, but it does.
I imagine it’s the same as with hitler. It’s not just the inherent racism, but it’s harder to care as much about people the farther they are geographically or culturally or nationality.
I’m not trying to encourage this but I think it’s realistic
End? Hah, if you killed him he'd be a martyr and his successor Great Leader Vance would run a more competent fascist operation.
Vance is incompetent and slimey. Trump is only getting away with this shit because 45%ish of Americans find him sophmorically funny.
He and Elon are simply too dangerous and if America wants to continue being a country both of them need very public lessons to discourage copycats.
What if we get a 2 for 1 special?
Can we make it 3 for 1maybe? Too greedy?
Vance has an old school polotician side. If left to himself, he wouldn't go against the courts for example. He is just willing to say what trump wants him to say.
Don't be so sure about that.
Now, Vance doesn't have the iron grip on 33% of the country that Trump has, so it's possible that he'd have to be more cautious. But he's definitely not against ignoring the courts in principle.
I suspect with the current state of technology, mario wouldn't necessarily need to go down with the ship. Hopefully it's a matter of time.
it's that easy. there's plenty of people offing themself all the time. i honestly don't understand what the problem here is. i guess there's not an app for that so the kids don't know how to do it.
Interesting idea. Someone in Ukraine could make an app to help make it all come true.
