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!

hilarious that none of this would have come to light but he could not just let it lie.
This was over 20 years ago. Let's focus on his modern fuck-ups instead when he was barely of drinking age.
It demonstrates a lifetime pattern of irresponsible drinking, which is relevant to the discussion. This isn't a new thing, something that happened from the pressures of his new job, etc. This is a lifelong problem that has been ignored, and is now a National Security Threat.
Oh, we are absolutely focused on his current f***-ups. And we also look to the past to see if it's been happening for a long time, which it has.
I mean look, if you've been an alcoholic for decades and now you try to lie to people and say that you don't have a problem with booze, people are going to go to your old drunken Facebook posts, point them out, and laugh at your lying ass. That's just common sense my friend.
You are allowed to swear here on the internet, but if you truly don't want to say fuck-ups then just don't say it. Or change it to from fuck-ups to foul-ups, mess ups, or something.
See, I'm petty, so self censoring just makes me not want to agree with you.
However, fucks sake, I do agree with you...but begrudgingly. FUCK UPS.
Your one self censorship had led to me writing fuck-ups four times.
Oh fuck it's contagious.
It's fucking spreading!
The fuckupalypse!
it helps to establish a pattern of behavior. it's relevant.
agree with jack, the headline is massively misleading.
headline should have made it obvious that this is something from the past, showing that his current drunkenness is a fundamental problem of his, as it is rooted in a pattern
agree with jack, the headline is massively misleading.
I don't disagree that the title is misleading, but that wasn't Jack's complaint. And I didn't change the article's original title, particularly because I crossposted this to several comms, some of which have rules against this.
All y'all saying the right things
This is old. Who hasn't peed in a bush once, or thrice, etc
But most of us aren't foolish enough to do so in a visible/observable way, and most of us aren't currently part of the Drunkard's Parade that's fuckin up the country with great enthusiasm and effect.

In my youth I have also been to the Government Hotel for public urination. And it does indeed correlate to my present behavior of peeing outside.
It doesn't matter. None of it actually matters. It's all just theater, distraction and misinformation hiding political power which is utterly detached from legality, morality or decency.
He's going to be fired in 3....2....1.....
He’ll be pissed about that
Pretty sure this puts you on the offender list don't it?
I am not a lawyer, but every state has different laws and penalties.](https://teamjustice.com/public-urination-laws-penalties-by-state/). None of them will normally put you on the sex offender list for simple public urination. This of course assumes you aren't doing something to elevate it to the level of public indecency.
Right.
While public urination in of itself not a sex offender level crime, public urination in a kindergarten classroom likely is.
Wouldn't that depend on where you did it?
And who you are apparently
As much as I hate this shitty fuck, public urination is a stupid "crime". No one and nothing is hurt by it, instead lets focus on actual horrible shit hes done.

This is nothing. Completely irrelevant. He was 25 at the time, barely an adult.
I'm 70 and I still whip out my dick in public regularly.
That doesn't detract in any way from my authority as chancellor of Germany.
The least of my problems with him. This actually humanizes him.
I don't want that.
Pissing out the window and shitting out the window are two different things
Now now, let’s be fair. He’s not a drunk anymore. Thanks to the massive amount of cocaine he snorts on a daily basis, he is now completely immune to the effects of alcohol.
Yeah because taking a piss when you need is so fucking awful. The only thing wrong about that if shops says no to use their bathroom or/and because there's no/not enough clean secure free public bathroom. Basic needs of life.
Dude is a fucktard that should at least not be there tho
