politics
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!

The dailybeast, really?
I double checked and that is definitely a hyperlink to the daily beast. It was right there when I looked at the URL. I hope that helps.
I think you should check again, just to be sure.
It's tough to be an expert at what is and isn't The Daily Beast
The daily beast is a tabloid with a reputation for being dishonest, has nothing to do with the title of the article, or even with the topic being trump.
p.s. fuck that guy in case anybody thinks that's what this is about.
sometimes text is not meant to be taken too literally and there is slightly different meaning to it. but don't worry, you will learn about that later in your education, for now keep doing good job in the elementary school...
Your momma
Oh. I see. Not an elementary school, rather a kindergarten. Well, keep up the good work.
The zeitgeist is against you today. Today’s zeitgeist is “edgy teen” for your downvoting pleasure.
Le epic comeback, m'goodsir
What's the issue with it? Sorry, I'm not very knowledgeable about how trustworthy sources are.
https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/daily-beast/
we had a bot for that, but then bunch of snowflakes for whom pressing the block button was too much work whined so insufferably that they won, so we no longer have a bot for that.
We found the whining!
Thank fuck.
Yours, a snowflake.
What's to dislike about the bot?
A bot that calls a factual source "biased left" is creating its own right-wing bias.
People really got all up in something completely unimportant. As best I can tell people just hated the fact that it exists and isn’t 100% perfect.
It will eventually try to eat us.
Excellent, that bot existed to spread election disinformation.
