Already setting himself up for The Big Lie pt. 2 for if/when the time comes.

But the school administration stopped us from getting another 500, 600 even 1000 people in. Thousands of people were told no, and that was okay. But we could have fit another 600 people.

So I don’t know anything about the school. I don’t know anything about this school, but they could have allowed more people. You got people standing outside. Look at all the people outside. They could have come in, they could have come in. So we’re not happy.

Always a fucking conspiracy with this guy. He couldn’t possibly recon with his own unpopularity, it’s the school administration (this time) out to get him.

The Big Lie pt. 2

Don't forget the second coming of the violent coup, financed by fascist oligarchs everywhere.

I'm going to go ahead and disagree and say this is at minimum The Big Lie part 3.

His campaign promises the first time around were very, very different. That first campaign and presidency was part 1. Losing the election and denying it and being a total asshat the last 4 years is part 2. Part 3 will be after he loses this next election. Somehow I think he'll try to go for another bout too, even after losing as a sitting fucking president.

Hopefully the republicans can get a more realistic moderate candidate next time. I'm just dreaming of a day where the politics is less divided and more cooperative, a fantasy I know.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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!
