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.

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.

THIS is not an onion article

This is not an onion ARTICLE
My first thought seeing the headline was "c/onion or c/nottheonion?
c/politics was not what I expected.
That last one makes me suspect this article might be an onion in disguise.
If Will Ferrel did this in a skit people would be saying he had jumped the shark.
Trump in the final week before the Presidential election for the United States of America just mimicked giving a blow job to a microphone.
After giving it a good handjob.
It’s on video in the article.
It’s real.
It’s beyond bizarre, it’s Trump.
I was commenting on how the emphasis changes the meaning of each of the different sentences on the comment I was responding to, not any of the context of the original post.

Trump also complained about the low height of microphone stands at his events and showed how he would work around such issues, bobbing his head up and down in ... an imitation of oral sex.
So... he gets around such issues by blowing the roadies?
I mean, he does have some large judgements to pay, and a nickel is a nickel....

Because disinhibition is a sign of dementia.
Damn. After all this time.
"That can't be real. right?"
Of course it's real. Of course it is.
The comments on Twitter/X were about what you’d expect, although many were too graphic to be posted here:
“Trying to make sure the campaign has a happy ending.”
“These are the book banning folks, right.”
“Evidently, Donald Trump’s final campaign message is ‘Hawk Tuah!’”
“There is something seriously wrong with this person. He’s willing to do or say ANYTHING to get some applause from his sycophantic cult.”
“He finally found something that consents.”
“Tomorrow the press headlines will be: Trump has technical difficulties but gives rousing speech.”
”Tomorrow the press headlines will be: Trump has technical difficulties but gives rousing speech.”
In spite of having the success of getting aroused, the performance was marred by technical difficulties.
"He later added: “I get so angry. I’m up here seething. I’m seething. I’m working my ass off with this stupid mic. I’m blowing out my left arm. Now I’m going to blow out my right arm and I’m blowing out my damn throat, too, because these stupid people.”...HAHAHAHAHA. hes blown out in ways he simply cannot comprehend
He's just preparing for his eventual conviction and stint in prison.
Fucking corporate media putting this asshat on a podium for the last couple of decades asking, "why is this asshat on the podium?" Get fucked.
Letting Putin, xi, and Kim Jung un see what he's offering them if he wins
Letting Xi and Jung know what he's been doing to Putin all this time
He thought the microphone stand was Putin.
He learned to dance from Roy Cohn so not surprised. 
Annie’s young we try not to sexualize her
He has to show Putin that he is still his boy.
All the recent talk of Epstein has been bringing back memories.
with many comments too graphic to share.
Do it, you cowards!
I was joking around about what happens is Trump comes out in drag...well...uh...do all the maga homophobes start giving each other blow jobs for Trump now?
Maybe he's been trying to tell us all something all these years by doing his jerkoff dance to YMCA...does he have "I'm Coming Out" on the same playlist?
