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!

Laura Loomer insists she and Donald Trump are very close.

While Donald Trump’s allies have tried to create the illusion of distance between the Republican presidential nominee and Laura Loomer, the alt-right conspiracy theorist has continued to cozy up to him, going so far as to brag over the weekend that Trump “likes” and “trusts” her.

“The media is full of shit. OK?” Loomer said on her podcast, ​​Loomer Unleashed, on Saturday. “These people are liars. They are con artists, and all they do is lie. They are running a coordinated smear campaign because I am effective. Donald Trump likes me. Donald Trump trusts me. OK?

[–] gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.works 50 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (2 children)

lol wait what. No fucking way.

Edit: oh my fucking god she was born in 93 what the actual fuck happened to her in childhood such that she turned into this so quickly

[–] Grass@sh.itjust.works 29 points 2 months ago (2 children)

holy fuck you mean she's younger than me? I call myself an old man all the time but I don't look quite as old as she does yet.

[–] gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.works 17 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Same - I was floored. I thought she was like 50something at least if the was enthusiastically shagging Trump.

[–] StupidBrotherInLaw@lemmy.world 11 points 2 months ago (2 children)

And then there's his smell. I've heard about how terrible he smells clothed, imagine it once the clothes come off.

[–] shyguyblue@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

Maybe during the rhinoplasty, she asked for those smelly bits to be snipped/disconnected? /S?

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 2 months ago

There goes my appetite

[–] shiroininja@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

hoooooly shit I'm six years older and look better. and I've had no work done lmao

[–] shuzuko@midwest.social 5 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Holy shit I definitely thought she was late 40s, I can't believe she's younger than me

[–] dirthawker0@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

Yeah, and I think she's had plastic surgery to fit herself into that weird mold of Melania and Kim Guilfoyle, dark hair, wide cheekbones and squinty eyes covered in heavy eyeliner and mascara. She was actually kind of cute looking before that (though still ugly in her views).

This is the power of the Dark Side

[–] peopleproblems@lemmy.world 24 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Thoughts that came to mind:

  1. She is 100% not human
  2. EWWWW TRUMP IS FUCKING HER
  3. EWWWW SHES FUCKING TRUMP
  4. This election is a shit show for the GOP lol

'member when your dad/friends/strangers told you "don't put your dick in crazy"? (for those of us with)

there is way too much crazy in this scenario to even begin sorting it out. its literally a null in the universe. a divide by zero, if you will. shits so weird now we need an event horizon to hide this naked singularity.

[–] peopleproblems@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Ooo storytime: See I had been told it. The problem was I was young and didn't know what crazy was.

I didn't recognize that having a father who wasnt home until after you went to bed, drank heavily, and didn't do much but listen to music and watch TV was a very bad thing. I also apparently didn't realize that "daddy issues" means "seeking a replacement father in someone significant and confusing my attachment with them and a parental figure."

Let this be a warning to all men: Never stick your dick in crazy.

10 pounds of heavy duty makeup since you were 12 years old also ages you
