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!

The holy trinity. qAnon, Fox News and the Bible (but not the woke parts where Jesus was a communist)

That's literally all there is to it, after 30 plus years of conservative media brainwashing people.
Don't forget Putin had a hand in there, along with his cyber operations and GOP/NRA cash.
To own the libs, of course.
I have seen two of my neighbors flying the Trump flag. I feel its like flying the confederate flag. A declaration that you are a racist evil POS.
That kind of behavior is like taking a giant dump on the front lawn and thinking the neighbors are jealous.
Unchecked white privilege.
More like unchecked propaganda.
Because they are bigots. They genuinely want to hurt "those people". They are afraid of being called out on their bigotry, so like to see people in power act the same way. Because they're bigoted themselves, they see bigotry in leaders as "telling it like it is".

Even if he did have a right to take secret documents from the White House, he has a clear duty to protect their secrecy. This is an admission of guilt.
The President is not god, he has a duty to serve the people and the nation.
This guy said things well. Ill say them my way.
WE SHOULD PUNCH HIM IN THE COCK
Mission failed, target too small.
Not even Skywalker could hit that.
With a cock that small, a punch to the groin is less targeted and more area of effect.
Hard to find a target that small
Why do they call you Cock Knocker?

Sooooooooo….. why is he not in prison?
judge be simping
Jfc. Lock him the fuck up.
You know, the fun part of this all is, in a way, all the presidency is is its norms and traditions. Trump flaunted all of them. He didn't understand they were in place to protect him. It should come as no surprise when he isn't treated like a former president because he never acted like a president in the first place.
Right? He wants all the unofficial but traditional perks and benefits of being a president without being bound by all the traditional obligations and expectations of the office.
It's like he thinks being rich gives him an exception to all this shit, but he's to stupid to realize that MOST American Presidents are rich, many of them more than he'll ever be.
That's Trump's whole life. He thinks being rich cures him of rules and obligations, but then he wants into "high society" because of the access and authority that it provides. But that price of admission to that circle isn't JUST about being rich, it's about following the very rules that Trump doesn't feel bound by.
It's why the only thing he can think to do with the office of the president is trying to find cool stuff to show people to make people fonally like him.
This is America, even rich people can be trash.
Only people who paid Trump for membership to his shitty golf hotel got access to Americas and their Allies Top Secret documents.
What a traitorous un American piece of shit this asshole is.
Which by the way the US has caught spies trying to get in to this exact property, plus the Australian billionaire who wasn't a spy but repeated state secrets from Trump to tons of people.
Toss his ass in jail while he awaits trial, just like what happens to regular schmucks who leak classified information.
I don't think linking classified documents, at the level a president had, falls into regular schmucks.
Throw him into a military prison. While he won't suffer as much as he would under the general population, it certainly wouldn't be a "witch hunt" compared to when inmate 0792348 shanks him because he can't fathom a social structure where he isn't "superior."
Then, when the trial completes, with a guilty verdict, throw him in with gen pop. Preferably in a predominately black cell block in NY. A lot of bad blood there for a vocally racist piece of shit who directly acted against the black community over decades.
the prosecutors:
oh good a meme
Boy am I glad we have Aileen Cannon as the judge presiding over this case, so you know she'll be fair and impartial about this sort of thing.
