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!

How Americans aren't storming the white house or Mar A Lago at this point with a bunch of guns is beyond me.
I'm not trying to be demeaning, this isn't a rhetorical question. Seriously, what sort of logistical miracle would it take for this? America is fucking huge and that would take organization and I have no ideas.
I'm beyond hope for peaceful OR violent change. The only future I'm seeing is collapse and the subsequent corporate cyberpunk nightmare that will devour what remains.
First, small groups of armed militias need to form at a local level. Then they would need to communicate and organize to travel on a certain date and just show up.
I think we will see many middling nations appear after America breaks up, eventually resulting in all the smaller ones getting gobbled up. Mexico, Canada, New York, and California would probably be rival nations after awhile.
They had no problem on jan 6.
Well the president organized an insurrection.
They had someone plan the date for them. The DNC won't even plan something more than brunch.
They still think the same strategy that supposedly helped Obama to beat Mitt Romney ("they go low, we go high") will also beat Trump.
Are you recommending that all of the disgruntled Magas commit suicide by secret service?
Armed man shot and killed after entering Mar-a-Lago secure perimeter, Secret Service says
precisely that. krasnov won't learn his lesson unless you die at him. so go do that maybe.
