Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. 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. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content.

Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link.

I remember being one of the fools who thought he wouldn’t stand a chance the first time around.
This time around I’m praying and I’m not even religious.
I live in red country. I hear them every day. Teachers, lawyers, doctors, nurses, police officers, farmers, constructions workers, welders, even dirt poor disabled welfare recipients. They all say, “I can’t wait until Trump gets back in and fixes this mess.”
The media they consume all says he’s innocent. The podcasts they listen to all cheer for the day his political opponents are jailed.
Even with the recording where he pressured officials to find more votes. Even with all of the charges. Even with the republicans who come out and talk about his crimes.
To them it’s all political theater from the left. It’s all a big conspiracy to take down the greatest man who ever lived.
I’ve heard the words, “poor old Trump. It’s a shame what they’re putting him through, and he just keeps going because he loves America.”
The threat is real. Please please please, don’t think for a second he can’t win.
I remember telling people it's possible and having a whole bunch of online folk tell me how Stephen Wang from Princeton said there was a 98% chance that Democrats would win.
Nate Silver went from being congratulated for his predictions to getting criticized for mentioning that there were correlated errors which could easily result in a Republican president. It was interesting because Silver wasn't even predicting a Republican victory just a 40% chance it could happen.
Please stop spreading misinformation. Donald Trump cannot win. The 14th amendment prohibits it.
You are wrong and certain, which makes you dangerous. Unless convicted of these crimes, nothing is stopping him. Basically you are setting the bar so anyone can yell sedition in a crowded theater, and now no one there can be president.
No, you are absolutely wrong. Trump HAS charges against him on both state and federal levels.
The 14th amendment places no emphasis on a judge finding one guilty. Therefore yes; it can be that broad. We can show he did something; Congress, DoJ and a State would not be investigating otherwise.
