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!

maybe he should've grabbed them by the pussy
The fact that this went away, really makes me confident that America is a failed state.
nationalism gave us the hubris to think we were impervious to fascism. now we have a convicted felon rapist manbaby, completely immune to any consequence whatsoever, calling all the shots while our peaceful protesters are abducted by masked goons
barely 250 years. pathetic
Which is absurd, as the fascist nations were overwhelmingly nationalist first and foremost.
the more you look at US history the more absurd it gets
Okay, 250 years isn't too bad. France's last government started in the 60s. And they've had a lot. But that's France. The US has the longest lasting fully used constitution in the world. It's just that a lot of it has been ignored over the years.
ok. congrats to us, i guess...
Most MAGA don't care about women anyway. They view women as sub-human. Even the MAGA women defend this.
It turns out conservatives are offended by sex, not sexual assault. They're historically pretty okay with that one.
"offended by sex" is just a smoke and mirrors cover for what really grinds their gears: women making their own decisions. especially when a decision contradicts what they're told to do by men
Great point. Trump has never once showed a hint of empathy and only sees things from his own perspective.
Whether he's talking about sexually assaulting women or using the military to assault another country, it's all very similar to him.
Trump's many obvious deficiencies make him one of the least qualified people to negotiate peace with other countries.
Oddly he sounds like my ex wife - completely without empathy unless its about her pain- which should command center stage at all times.
