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!

"Trumps cognitive decline..."

Yeah, reason numbers 576,432 that he should never have even been on the ballet

"as my 6yo just said, "Ooold Donald Bananas"

completely unrelated to this, but it fits.

On one paw, I would like Trump dead. On the other hand, if a 2nd American Civil War happens, I would like him to prosecute the Confederate's actions. Under his influence, every single thing about the Confederates would be driven by DUI.

It would be nice if fascism suffered a curbstomp that it could never recover from. A war would be bitter medicine, but much needed to save America from Thiel and company. So long as they stay rooted in American politics, our rights and freedoms will be lost.

Someone shoot me a message when someone decides to do something about it.

The guy that thinks the annotated photo of a dude's knuckles isn't annotated might have a cognitive issue? No way!!

if the republicans are willing to wheel out congress members in their 80s who live in assisted living conditions and are deep into the throws of dimentia to pass bills.

they are going to shove a broom stick up his ass after he dies and work him like a puppet until his skin rots off. even then they might duct tape him back together for another "red wave"

I don't think a blowie would help right now.

We pay for his health care, better quality than most millionaires could dream of. His team will keep him so full of drugs, and so many secret surgeries, he will live into his 80s. His brain will be last week's taco meat, but he will live.
