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!

It’s so stupidly petty and has nothing to do with what actually makes Trump a shitty candidate (the whole fascism and insurrection thing and everything else), but it will probably bother Trump the most out of anything precisely because of how self-conscious it’ll make him.
And I bet he fucking stinks.
Right? You know who often doesn't smell great? Old guys. Other people who sometimes stink include fat guys. And if you live in a hot, humid area you have to be more attentive to your hygiene.
Orange Dump is an obese geriatric living on swamp land, hitting the trifecta. I'd put good money on odds of his ass stanking something fierce.
You forgot about his diapers
I've heard it from the best people.
That's exactly my thoughts. Throughout the whole Trump candidacy and presidency, I've generally avoided criticism about what he looks like or the inconsequential things he does. If he were a decent president, or even a decent human being, it wouldn't matter about his orange skin, weird hair, strange posture, weird smell, fast food diet, or any of that kind of thing. It's the fact that he tried to overthrow the government, likely gave away or sold national secrets, raped women, installed cabinet members who intended to dismantle the organizations they were in charge of, etc. etc.
But ironically, he and his base are totally fine with those things, it's the inconsequential and superficial stuff that might actually cost him votes.
Apparently it's just one more symptom of dementia.
I heard he has bad breath (this is an excellent tactic to make shitty people talk less).
