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!

Yep the leopards are getting morbidly obese right now.
Seriously? What did they think was going to happen with donvict in office? I just can't even right now. If I thought things would be any better in 4 years, I'd beg/borrow/steal to get on that 4 year cruise...
No way. The guy who said he'd give Netanyahu a blank check to destroy Gaza opposes Islam? Color me fucking shocked.
Facts:
- POTUS45 knew it was a one-time grift so there are no repercussions for him for abandoning his electorate.
- POTUS45 repeatedly stated his desire to help Israel and not even once hinted at idea of peace for Gaza.
- Haris clearly was trying to evade direct answers to Gaza questions which left significant room for after-election change
- Democrats suck (at messaging, at fighting back and at playing hard ball)
- Putting up ultimatums in the middle of election is doomed to failure. I can't recall one instance where it was successful. I can recall however when existing administration, outside of election cycle, yielded to public pressure...
so with just more obvious facts on the table the entire notion of giving Dems middle finger and literally helping Republicans win was not merely misguided but malicious. Being surprised by the outcome does not speak highly of people involved and their priority. If their priority was stopping the bloodshed they would've acted differently, by all means that priority was mainly middle finger to Dems.
I am acutely aware that people are dying and between two administrations the difference is at what scale and whether public has any sway with administration. Present choice out of the gate pointed for larger scale suffering and no public input.
US elections are not pragmatic - they are spectacle of emotions, which is why public elects showman.

All this time/effort organizing around him when a 5 minute Google search would have shown you he'd pledge unquestioning support for Netanyahu
Not to mention Trump's "sharpie realignment" of Israel's border during his last term. These people have rocks in their heads if they thought this was going to go any other way.
This is what I don't get.
Trump is like everyone's marvel superhero, he's whatever they imagine they want, the alternative to everyone else... Even very legitimate and thought out criticism can somehow conclude with supporting Trump when that makes no sense.
Thoughts and prayers for the members of the Abandon Harris campaign and Muslims for Trump.
“Donald J. Trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until our country's representatives can figure out what the hell is going on.”
No fucking shit.
Go fuck yourself.
"Hey, asshole. Shut up and get on the plane."- Trump Administration to this chucklefuck in a couple months.
You voted for this, you stupid motherfucker. Now you get to enjoy the ride like the rest of us.
There won't be planes, or deportations. There will only be caged slave laborers in concentration camps owned by his friends, with the government (read taxpayers) paying the rent month after month, year after year.

Trump unleashing the leopards to eat the people’s faces.
Exactly as he promised.
I didn’t think the leopards would eat my face!
I mean what did they expect? Yes, i didn’t agree with Bidens current policy or what Kamala was going to do, but I knew trump would be worse.
Man, Americans are so fat even our leopards overeat.
There's at least 76,430,748 new faces to be eaten. Not enough leopards.
Oh, they will find the leopards.
Sorry my bad, I meant that as to why that leopard was the size it was. Too many faces to eat. Gluttonous.
It’s trueeeeee. But can you blame them? High calorie diet! Americans a yuuuuuge

Voting has consequences. The time to wake the fuck up was two weeks ago. I guess the next best time is now.
I honestly have no idea how any Muslim could vote for Trump unless they were completely ignorant. He is not their friend by any stretch of the imagination. It's not going to end well for them.
Why oh why didn't anyone warn them?
Dumb fucks
