Trump lives on the wrong side of every line. If you can no longer support him after his latest transgression, you are probably on the wrong side of a bunch of issues. I'm glad people are realizing they cannot support him anymore, but there is not nearly enough introspection among former Trumpers.

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!

For like the millionth fucking time. Stop writing articles like this as if there was no previous context. He crossed this line over a decade ago.
Yawn. He's been crossing a new line every day since 2016 just about. This isn't news.
Well, before 2016 too.
Again? Wake me when he's held accountable.
- Trump is a incompetent liar, with a first Presidential administration that saw over 1 million Americans die from a purposefully sandbagged and mismanaged worldwide viral pandemic response, capped off by a violent and deadly insurrection in the nations capitol building
- Having had his pants pulled down on national television by Kamala Harris, he has no other option than to start throwing molotov cocktails into the zeitgeist, knowing the feckless media will oblige for ad revenue, hoping to push Harris/Waltz below the fold
- Well meaning though obviously ignorant netziens continue to repost articles, mocking Trump, thereby amplifying his messages of hate and division, which is the only way his molotov cocktail throwing can achieve the goal of keeping him on the front page, and sucking all the air out of any energy praising Harris
Time to move the unacceptable line farther away again.
He didn't do that when he committed treason probably a thousand times?
I was going to say the "grab them by the pussy" tape was crossing the line, but yeah, treason as well.
Millions of dogs and cats are eaten around the world yearly.
This is a fact, and we can come to certain conclusions.
Could you spell out what conclusions you take from that?
I'd say one conclusion (yes, an assumption) I could make is that dogs and cats somewhere in America have been eaten.
Yepp, at some point at some time someone in USA has eaten a dog or a cat. But do Haitians regularly steal other people's pets and eat them? Very unlikely.
Probably not a common occurrence. Has it happened? I'm sure at some point.
On a post about Trump saying that Haitians are taking other people's pets and eating them, you said:
Millions of dogs and cats are eaten around the world yearly.
This is a fact, and we can come to certain conclusions.
You can't blame people from thinking that you are inferring that Trump is telling the truth.
But we've come to the conclusion now that Trump is indeed lying and Haitians aren't stealing people's pets and eating them. Has it ever happened anywhere? Very possible. Is it currently happening in Springfield? No.
You're an idiot.
Lol. Way to illustrate that you don't understand what's going on here.
