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 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.
  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 another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. 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.
  4. 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 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!

In a 100 days, 75% of America would've died if it weren't for Trump, but the economy is still Biden's fault. M'kay.

75% less Americans would have died of Covid under any other president, bet

Another baseless lie to inflate their own egos.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 days ago

Oh Pam, you dumb bitch.

The only way we get past this era is to take whatever steps necessary to ensure they will never again influence American politics. Anything short of that is just kicking the can down the road.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

There is no kicking this can. The time is now. This is where kicking the can gets us.

Gotta solve the problem with the mods in here before we talk about options

Perhaps you should think about encryption...

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

Haha. Encrypting public comments, eh?

Is this supposed to make up for all the people he killed during Covid?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Yes. And I believe he's also currently pushing some statement about Biden "losing 300,000" immigrant children, but that's just him misinterpreting things on purpose because of the family separation Trump eagerly engaged in, in his 1st term. Those number of children ranged in the hundreds, but ultimately the Biden administration was able to reunite many of the families. That's after the Trump administration said it would have been impossible. So, to say some 300,000 children have been lost under Biden is just absurd and magnified to look so much worse for his followers and other idiots to think both sides are the same or worse.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

Anyone can lose 300,000 children. They’re smaller than the American children because they at in metric.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 days ago

Just a cabinet full of human centipede subjects.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

looks up "flatter" in the dictionary

I guess massaging his balloon knot with her tongue counts as flattery.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Wanna bet they’re snorting all the confiscated shit over there?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

75% of Americans would be doing cocaine if not for the Trump administration.

Theyre taking care of it one line at a time, for the good of the country

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago

"Flatters" more like shoves her tongue up his ass and says she has no brain..

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

What the hell... We didn't all just start taking drugs just now to have missed the recent shipment they confiscated so where have my drugs been this whole time!? I didn't get any drugs before! 75% is like 300 million people, I sure as hell would have been one of them!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

Yes I also would like my drug laced Tylenol. Not all of us have a problem dosing our drugs
