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 US politics and contain quality and original content. Social Media adjacent hosts like Substack are allowed, but ONLY if they tie back to a company/subsidiary. No personal or friend group blogs and no self-promotion. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and re-hosted 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 other users of being bots or paid actors.
  3. No memes, trolling, misinformation, or low-effort posts/comments (including reposts). If you see posts like this that anger you, do not engage. Report, block, and live a happier life than they do. Any slap-fight is subject to comment removals. Fights full of rule violations will result in temporary bans to cool off.
  4. No manipulating votes via bots or alt accounts; this will result in permanent bans. 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 an account ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be permanently banned.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules and use critical thinking when reading, posting, and commenting. Users that repeatedly have 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. The reason(s) behind moderator action(s) are publicly available through the Modlog.

That's all the rules!

Won't happen.

He'll leave office and start a podcast, join the board of some fascist tech company, get a book deal, maybe become a talking head on FOX News, then show up in 2032 with his favorite pick for president while liberals scream and cry about how he lied on his taxes back when the IRS still existed.

...then finally die in his closet of autoerotic asphyxiation watching immigrant trans porn.

I actually think your wrong. They will say that Trump had dementia all along and certain people were pulling his strings. A handful of scape goats will get punished, like Miller will get prosecuted for ICE crimes, Kegseth for War crimes, etc. Then they will say we need to move on and heal and forget all about it. 5 years later people will probably forget they ever were on prison after they are pardoned.

The #NeverTrumpers and MSNBCIA Liberals already say that.

Miller will get prosecuted for ICE crimes

I will put $100 on the table to your $20 that Miller doesn't see so much as an indictment inside the next four years.

Kegseth for War crimes, etc.

I will put $200 to your $20 on this one.
