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!

Soooooo

The right-wing reporters realize he means them too, right?

Eventually, you slip up and lose favor with the GröpenFührer then, out the window you go.

They realize that. Right?

Of course they don't. He hates the people they hate. And when he hates them, they'll hate themselves, too.

They'll never lose favor, only the other will.

Something something… leopards.. faces…

Forget about the nominally right wing media, look at how the NY Times have covered every threat to democracy, ever. From Hitler to the business plot to Trump.

This is the mistake people always make with an autocrat. They the think they’ll be allowed to keep or amass the power the have, but only one person is allowed power in an autocratic regime.

This dude is only becoming more of a nightmare the closer we get to election day

[–] [email protected] 91 points 1 week ago (1 children)

just wait until you see what he's like after election day!

True. Doesn't matter if he wins or loses. He'll claim he won no matter the results and he'll be equally crazy.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

and he’ll be equally crazy.

Equally? That seems optimistic. He'll go even farther off the deep end. Even if he wins, he'll contest it, because he clearly should have won by a larger margin.

Go to jail you orange turd.

Believe people when they show you what they really are.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago

It really sucks that everybody voting for trump is not your friend, even if you think they are. It's just too many people for that to happen to.
