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!

I’m calling for killing the king, should we ever get one in the United States. I’m not saying that the president is a king, I’m just saying that if someone were to become a king, instead of a president, they should be executed.

I mean, I publicly say I wish Trumps shooter hadn't missed so badly, and that Trump had caught the bullet with his empty fucking skull. I just wish when his skull gets blown apart, it's on live TV, so I can enjoy having it as my screensaver in uncensored HD.
We were millimeters away from freedom.
As bad as I wanted to see that happen, this problem doesn't go away when one man dies. It's clear that we need to see where this path leads before we learn our lesson. I wish that weren't true, but it is.
Cults of personality fall apart when the leader dies though.
However, I agree that you can't just assassinate your way out of a deep, societal sickness. You have to address the underlying symptoms or it will just flare up again.
What? And make him a martyr?
I want him to cark it at a campaign rally. Pop a blood vessel in his skull, while pushing a little too hard on a constipated shit, only to lose the last shred of a fragment of sanity. To see him collapse onto the ground growling and chewing on the podium.
To quote G’kar… it’s a dream I have.
If your guillotine blade isn't sharp, at least make sure it's heavy.
ASAP. And ideally before they actually become king. Like, if there's gonna be a crowning or whatever ceremony, they shouldn't get to make it. They'll have a prior engagement with a hooded figure.
Trump and Musk should be handled before they reach king status.
They should have never made it this far. obviously a fully corrupt and for sale president is ideal for a lot of powerful people.
