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.

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!

How many members of the National Guard are already MAGA Chuds?
I have strong doubts. The people most likely to "Jan 6" did. A number of them, particularly the mid-level leaders, that actually organized things, are in prison. They have not turned out in numbers since they started getting arrested.
All it takes is just one person with a gun and a grudge to kill dozens.
But that won't take them any closer to toppling the government. Jan. 6 could only happen because Trump actively prevented the police from doing their jobs. That won't happen under Biden.
Trump actively prevented the police from doing their jobs
I hear Trump did the same thing at Uvalde.
Remember, the Beer Hall Putch failed. So we have nothing to worry about?
Per the new rules in my state, all my history books have had the pages from 1924 to 1957 torn out. So I'm assuming this part of history was just woke and soy and therefore unimportant.
Oh man, you didn't get to read about how our good Christian American soldiers kicked the ass of the Godless Communist Germany in WW2?
No. But I was told by a private student group funded through the anonymous donation of particularly religious billionaires that I needed to "do my own research" on who the real bad guys were.
If that happens, I don't think the turnout will be anywhere near the same as it was before.
Trump primary turnout eclipsed his 2016 run. Conservatives are at least as hyped in 2024 as they were in 2020. Meanwhile, Liberals are trying to decide whether they need to send more bombs to kill Palestinians or start dropping shells on Columbia instead.
Looking really grim.
You mean purported leftist voters are going to elect Trump and end democracy bc they're angry about Gaza?
I think leftist voters are getting purged from rolls across the country and won't have a say in the matter either way.
But voter caging, disenfranchisement, and other ratfvckery will amount to a Trump win in the same way it amounted to a Bush win in 2000 and a Nixon win in 1968.
These protests will become the excuse Democrats use to further justify purging leftist voters from their ranks, in the same way they used it to purge Greens in 2000 and Socialists in 1968. And it will result in more loses as the country marches further and further into the grip of fascist state policy.
Question is what exactly does he mean? That MAGA republicans from around USA will visit the capitol city and go to see congress, all completely peacefully. we just have to hope the LGTB people don't make a mess of it.
Because isn't that what he claimed happened?
Trump is such a malignant idiot, and so is everybody who supports him.
Question is what exactly does he mean?
Terrorism.
But the little bitches in the government are too afraid to call a spade a spade.
Can't upset conservatives or they won't vote for me. And my entire election strategy hinges on winning over as many moderate conservatives as possible.
How many more Babbits will trump create when he can't tell the capital police to stand down? Or even, how many of his idiot followers are even going to show up when they got fucked and abandoned last time?
You're a pathetic weakling Donnie, go sit the fuck down and pout to a judge.
How many more Babbits will trump create when he can’t tell the capital police to stand down?
Enough Ashley Babbits and its less of a problem for conservatives than for the police.
He OBVIOUSLY learned his lesson Last Time!
What's wrong with a Tourist Visit? Or was January 6th NOT a Tourist Visit?
It’s pretty clear that his endgame is to basically cause an enormous bloodbath.
