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!

He has pissed off an actual billionaire.
Isn't that one rule of being rich, don't piss off the other rich people?
Because you either end up dead or poor which to some can be worse
One that doesn't like him and knows how to sue the shit out of people. It's a war that she can win too.
Taylor Swift is a real billionaire, not a dude cosplaying as one. She got real lawyers
I’m willing to bet she has the kind of good lawyers who only work for people who pay them, too.
🔥
to put in perspective, Taylors Eras tour made soo much money, she could have probably paid each of the employees who helped run the tour a million dollars each and she would still have a lot of money.
she already gave some of them 6 figure bonuses.
And she pays them.
The law suit isn't what matters. He's got a massive collection of those already and it won't matter until it all eventually catches up to him assuming he fails to get elected.
What matters is that if he pissed Taylor off enough she might actually endorse Harris openly. We know she leans blue but she's refrained from open endorsements. Her fans are absolutely crazy and she could probably sway a bunch of Republicans easily. This is great.
I find it hard to believe that anyone who votes Republican will care enough about Taylor Swift's influence to change their vote, but I can absolutely believe that her endorsement would swing the numbers in a big way if she just motivates politically apathetic Swifties to go to the polls.
Perhaps, but Swift's endorsement might encourage people who were otherwise unlikely to vote.
It might even be a "normie" to "activist" pipeline.
That's hard to predict. On one side, Trump convinced people that he won an election he lost, and committed violence in his name.
Maybe Swifties will phone bank?
Young adults in republican families would def switch vote.
Wow he also looks like absolute shit apparently
🌎👨🚀🔫👨🚀
Wait…. You can express this through the medium of emoji?

Again! Still!
He's looked like shit since the first time I ever saw him in home alone 2
FTA:
“I don’t know anything about them, other than somebody else generated them,” Trump told Fox Business correspondent Gary Trimble after his campaign event in Asheboro, North Carolina, on Wednesday. “I didn’t generate them.”
Hmm.. why do I get the feeling that he generated them?
You really think he even knows how?
Fair enough, someone probably helped him. What I don’t believe is that he wasn’t involved at all and the pictures just landed in his lap.
Im starting to believe he doesnt know about them or project 2025. Of course he knew about them before. But dementia does bad things to your memory.
Trump about to learn what it looks like when an actual billionaire who hires quality lawyers (and pays them!) takes legal action against someone. For a guy who abused the courts for decades to bully people into doing what he wants, he sure is getting bent over the stand a lot these days.
He uh... really should be. She is legit rich as all fuck and has a lot of reasons to want to crack down on anything "AI" of her.
But also? He has all but guaranteed that T-swizzle openly endorses Kamala (rather than all but endorsing her). She is pretty unapologetically liberal and... spite is a hell of a drug.
Like, if you have to piss off a fanbase? Go after the k-pop fans before you go after Taylor Swift.
Don't be afraid, SleepyDon, keep posting, the more the better. She won't sue.
He looks gross and old is how he looks
