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!

bullshit. even fox news and OAN and all the-even further-right-wing-rags air his rants. They've heard him speak. we ALL watched him incite an insurrection. all their propagandist rags have spewed his own words like "I'll be a dictator on day one", or "If I get elected, you won't [get] to vote again." comments. They've heard all his violent rhetoric. They've heard him praise douchey assholes like Putin and Kim.
They've heard his racist dog-whistles. his misogyny. His stupidity.
They like that he calls for political violence against immigrants, against women, and against anyone whose not ideologically with them. (that is... democrats.).
They like his vile shit.
The GOP is the party of Insurrection. The party of violence. The party of racism. the party of misogyny. The party of hate. The party of Fuck-the-Poor-so-The-Rich-can-save-a-Buck.
Sorry, but they're voting for that. Knowingly. they're voting for project 2025. Knowingly. They're not ignorant. They know what and who he is, and they're voting for the candidate they like.
we need to be hitting back at the people who try to 'civilize' trump's message. "no he meant" needs to be met with "Trump meant to be fucking fascist, why are you lying?"
yeah, the time to coddle their fucking emotions is long since passed. Hurt their feelings. the worst of trump's supporters are not here to have civil conversation like functional adults.
they're here to beat the shit out of you until you comply. They don't give a flying fuck about your feelings. Only your compliance. It's well past time to clobber the "undecided" or "moderates" that don't really exist any more over the head with all of the GOP's bullshit. Paint them with that brush. if they don't like it they can prove it by NOT SUPPORTING THE FUCKING FASCISTS.
So you don't watch Fox News.
All these things you've listed they're showing it heavily cut up and explaining it away, trying to make sense of it the whole day, washing brains, coming up with fantasy stories to paint everyone left of the Neonazis as worse.
Just watch it for a couple days and then we can continue on the same grounds of reality.
Nobody is trying to convince the MAGA crowd, but you apparently think 50% of Americans are MAGA.
