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!

I disagree, he's loud, ignorant, has more money than braincells, and he's proud of it all. He might not line up with what you proclaim your values are, but he sure lines up with reality.
Am American; have more brain cells than money.
This analogy isn't realistic.
At best he is the European trope of the average American.
Don't take my word for it, check out the Wikipedia page lol
Let me know if any of these describe Donny:
Materialism, over-consumption, and extreme capitalism
Lack of cultural awareness
Racism and racialism
Environmental ignorance
Arrogance and nationalism
Military zeal
Don't worry, my comments are me noting how I'm not taking your word for it ;) the Cheeto is a cancer on humanity.
However, I can apply 90% of those descriptors to any politician.
I stand by my opinion that this is another lazy stereotype, like all French people being pompous or Canadians being afraid of the dark.
Dude if that's 90% of your politicians, you should start over lol.
Oh, I didn't specify these were politicians from a certain country.
Neither did I, in my last comment..
You implied it.
Whatever country you're from produces bad faith debaters. (Look, I can do it, too).
I'm sure it does.
Me too :)
