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!

Don’t forget they don’t like people who are best friends and love to party with pedos
You’d have to mad to want to go to the clown show Nazi pedo-nation.
Color me shocked.
Careful, that might get you detailed. No colors allowed.
No, no, MAGAs keep insisting that the world finally respects us again!
To be fair. Respected and loved are two different things. I don't think the rest of the world respects the US more than 1 year ago, just saying.
Respect? A LOT less.

Trump is the symptom not the disease
He's a cancer, and it has spread.

I think US popularity is collapsing in the US as well. I know I'm starting to hate it here.
Yup, half our population is now defending human trafficking and statutory rape.
US ~~popularity~~ is collapsing - FTFY.
Never in my long life have I considered leaving America, but I'm looking at options now.
I've been trying to convince my wife to leave since 2016. I'm 99% sure the main reason she won't agree is because she will burst into flames if she ever admits to being wrong about anything.
When I married my wife in 2005 she told me she'd NEVER leave her home and family. Took her to Australia for the first time in 2015 and within an hour of landing she was ready to move, which we did in November 2015, right before trump 1.0. Now since last November she's looking into Australian citizenship and says she's never going back. Don't give up hope!
What about it made her want to move?
Mostly it was moving from the Midwest to a sub-tropical beach paradise. Which I thought (but definitely didn't say) was kinda funny, because her reason for saying she'd never move was family. But pretty much all the reasons she's been glad we did move are related to trump and what the US has become.

nowhere more than in the us. Ugh these flag wavers. If you want pride in the country the country first has to act and function in a way that elicits pride!
I think a lot about something I read years ago. It said something like, "Some people love their country the way a child loves a parent. The parent is the smartest and the best and perfect. Some people love their country the way an adult loves a peer. They see the strengths, the potential, but also the weaknesses and problems that need to be addressed."
Conservatives are generally children. Driven largely by emotion with a very simple moral framework. Much like you will likely struggle to explain to a toddler that taking the other kid's toys, screaming constantly, and shitting in the sandbox won't make a lot of friends, explaining politics to a conservative is likely to be an ordeal. They don't care. They have feelings and that is their reality.
It's also kind of funny how conservatives are the ones who typically say "reality doesn't care about your feelings". Everything is projection.
The qons are very much into performative bullshit that they think is patriotism. They'll cry about how someone kneeling while a song plays and a piece of cloth is displayed at a sportsball game hurts "the troops".
Then they'll proudly vote for a party that treats the men and women of the military like a used Kleenex, and embrace a figure like Taco who called them suckers and losers.
They'll blather about free speech, then cry about Hollywood airing shows they don't like. They'll talk about liberty and The Constitution, but want xtianity to be put on a pedestal.
Xtianity sounds like the Muskrat’s new political party (or religion, or both).
