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!

This is why people say magapublicans are weird, they're so out of touch!
Has Vance never been in a bakery before!? Quick tip: when they ask you what you want, don't reply "I mean a lot of glazed here. Some sprinkle stuff. Some of these cinnamon rolls. Just whatever makes sense."
What??
Try ordering from the menu. Or ask them what's good. Or request an assortment of the most popular kinds...
It's one donut JD, how much could it cost, $10?
Or lean into your stupid richness. Buy five of everything and just start handing them out.
Oh, no. The one thing rich people never want to do is give people handouts!
They'd claim they handed them out, but in reality only their team got one each, and the rest were thrown away (and sprinkled with poison to make sure they don't get pulled out of the dumpster)
I mean, I think he really did want to count out one each. I'm not sure the man has ever bought donuts in his life.
Rich people want their own handouts cause they deserve it unless those filthy plebs. Those plebs are only taking advantage of the system.
If I were trying to be fair, I'd argue that that basically was an attempt to order an assorted dozen, albeit an awkward one.
But fascists don't deserve fairness, so I won't.
"...For a photo op, im not eating this pleb shit"
I bet Walz stops at a donut shop tomorrow. I think he knows his way around one quite well.
This sounds awfully close to "Dijon mustard on a burger! How out of touch can you be!" Levels of ridiculousness.
You gotta see it from their perspective, they're CEOs (presumably) and aren't used to knowing the details. They just vaguely point in vague directions ("pitch") and let the employees figure out the rest.
