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!

I wonder if Trump is going to be butthurt for the rest of his life because he didn’t have a chance to face off against Biden again.

Now Biden can say he won every election against Trump.

Unless of course Biden runs against Trump again next election.

Trump is an an easily fooled child:

"I know where he comes from, from a political standpoint," Trump said. "I was surprised we got along very well. I mean, we had a lunch that ended up being longer than we thought. That's always a good sign, you know, longer in the sense that we got along."

Some guy stays diplomatically polite and pretends to be his pal for 30 minutes to get what he wants and Donny boy thinks they're besties forever. What a dumbass... No wonder why Putin and Kim Jong Un managed to butter him up and make him think they're on his side so easily.

Without reading it, I’m going to assume he blames leftists.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

I haven't read it either. And I admit he could be blaming immigrants as well. Leftist transgender immigrants for the trifecta.

Apparently he blamed Obama and Pelosi. No personal accountability.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 hours ago

Of course not, until recently he hasn't been held accountable for anything since his father died. He did have a few court judgements go against him last year, but got elected anyway. So you can argue he still isn't being held accountable for anything, because those judgements are not impeding him at all.
