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.

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.

They have that maga rapper idiot. Why don't they want to use the music of their people? Is it all terrible imbecile noise? Wonder why?
Edit I didn't realize how many notable terrible maga rappers there were. I was referring to Forgiato Blow.

Are you guys just listing brands on Amazon?
Diggy said the boogie
E:diggy, not doggy
That song is the only one where I really wish that moron would have a change of heart. It's catchy and high energy and would work well for karaoke and a dead crowd. It's not good, but it's fucking fun and nostalgic.
But he's an active shitbag. I will not support a living shitbag if I know about their shitbaggery. I'll make an exception only if they're not actively engaging in shitbaggery any longer.
I hope his homey ends up in county in cell block 6 while being processed for the pen.
Who? (Legit question)
Kanye West is the most high profile rapper I can think of associated with the MAGA movement. Most of his billions comes from apparel, but most of his fame is due to his music.
I was a huge fan until his crazy heel turn a few years back.
I'm surprised they haven't used something like Gold Digger, either because of the literal use of the word gold (which Trump loves) or as a sexist jab at Harris.
Shhh don’t give them ideas. I’m enjoying how bad they are this time around
Ah yes, it is lovely to see.
i guess they could put Gold Digger in a campaign ad?
With Yeezus, it’s pretty clear he’s profoundly mentally ill. He’s been abusing NO2 and being exploited by doctors, and it’s rotting his brain.
It would make actual sense to put him in conservatorship - he’s bought and destroyed several multi billion dollar homes in strange and disturbed ways.
I'm pretty sure they are talking about Kid Rock, but I could be wrong
Forgiato Blow is his stage name. He's a god damn riot. In a bad way, but a riot.
