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!

Sigh... now watch as the DNC manages to fumble this. Truly we live in the worst timeline - elections should not be equivalent to playing Russian Roulette:-(.
They pulled off a win last time with the same players. It can happen again.
True. But the time before that they lost. And on and on the cycle goes! :-P
Trump installing his daughter in law at the RNC to pay his legal bills is just PROOF that DEMOCRATS are the Swamp!
I love this. They're going to spend all the party's money on Trump's legal bills leaving nothing else behind. And a Trump with no political experience is running the show. It's a perfect disaster. Dems are going to crush them. Let's see what other rights and protections they will take away from women before Nov.
Hope 2016 Lindsey was right
As frustrating and mostly true as this is, he just posted about $83million bond for the E Jean Carroll case and he will have to pay ~$450million more shortly for the fraud case bond
Edit: looks like the Chubb Corporation stepped in to help him
Good the the GOPs coffers just opened up...
So it is now officially the TNC or Trump National Committee. At least in that regard they are being honest now.
TNB: Trump National Bank.
Not FDIC insured and savings interest rates of -4.62%.
The specific things listed in the headline, are completely normal. The candidate always picks their own party leaders in election years.
The weird part is that it's a family member who is going to pay his legal bills with party funds.
Reducing funding to all down ballot candidates? Excellent.
Horrifying
So now the party isn't just a shambling corpse, it's a Frankensteinian monster.

Hey now, the book monster was highly intelligent and empathetic
In for a penny, in for a pound.
I honestly think the GOP has given up and thrown everything they have in the pot.
The thumbnail kbin decided to pull for this is funny. "A message to space", what's the message? A giant S.O.S.? Feels like it should be.
Lemmy and the Washington Post interact badly, so people on some instances get completely random images from other posts.
A warning...
