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!

We all know what else in this vid. The cinematographic rise of Trump from under security agents with a fist. He is nutting over how great he is at that moment.
Let's be real, that Pic is going in textbooks.
Yes, hopefully in the section on how he, possibly the worst president in U.S. history, tried to destroy American democracy.
Just because that picture looks "strong" doesn't mean he'll be remembered that way.
Well, we can hope, but unless we federally standardize a curriculum... Let's just say some states differ on what they teach the Civil War was about.
Are you JD Vance?
Looks like something he would post
Reminder for those who might downvote this comment: JD Vance publicly referred to Trump as "America's Hitler".
Thank you. Was I being too subtle?? Lmao
People are so focused on the couch jokes they must have missed out on the "America's Hitler" comment.
I missed out on it. When and in what context? This timeline is so weird.
2016, private message to a friend. Nothing changed about Donald since then. JD just has zero integrity, like all other Repubs.

Thanks. Again, this is all so weird. I need an enema.
It's already been wrapped around a cyber truck. It can't get any more important than that.
Yeah, but, like, he didn't do anything for such a legacy, he happened into his own Triumph of the Will moment by a coincidence of so much mistakes. There's though no wonder why he's seen as a messiah by his cultists and he sees it as a personal gift from the god, the recognition he didn't have in his family as per biographies.
Yeah, who knows what's going on in that head of his. In a moment when most people would be in momentary shock unable to process what just happened quickly enough, Trump knew immediately that he needed his shoes. Then stood triumphantly with blood running down his face and a dead body behind him.
Edit: when the transcript of the secret service communications was released i was shocked that Trump would be so concerned about his shoes. I immediately assumed, set up, he's trying to move on to the next part of the act in full costume.
Now after posting this and thinking about it more, I can see someone, in that moment, being disoriented, noticing they're bare footed, and focus on that. I still know that Trump is a pos.
