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!

How is this not satire? How do real, breathing people think that, not only is this a real thing that will work, but that blabbing it out on live tv is a good idea?! Fuck.
Do you remember this?
He actually made great increases in Hispanic votes
no one ever went, broke, underestimating the vast mass of people
Well, hispanics or latinos aren't a single monolithic group of people. Some of them see the other latino immigrants (especially the undocumented) with disdain. It's just a matter of stroking their ego and saying whatever that sticks to the single issue voters.
Especially newish immigrants. They're big on business tax breaks, They don't want more aliens coming in because it's direct competition.
Not in 2016 which is when the tweet is from. He did almost exactly as well as Romney 4 years before.
The whole thing is pretty basic. And perhaps that's why it's so horrifying.
People like you and I that find this insulting and absurd? We weren't voting GOP anyway, no loss.
People watching Fox News? They're nodding their heads, "Yeah. That makes sense."
See? Fox isn't losing voters it didn't have anyway, and at the same time, they're making their viewers more comfortable.
Everyone loves to see their opinions validated by a white man in a suit.
Hey, punks get really uncomfortable when we hear a white man in a suit say what we’re thinking. Even mundane shit like “let’s grab a falafel”
How do real, living breathing people continue to -watch- this garbage?
The same people who love doing this to themselves
