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!

Thank you for making me choke on my water.
fun fact: the long term trend for number of US choking deaths per 100k of pop. does appear to be increasing again after 2017. 🤔
Sheesh! Thanks, Obama!
Weird.
Makes you wonder what other times he's borrowed that wife.
Once the "weird" label took off, I thought it would lose some of its power because it was being used so much.
But damn. There's no other way to put it. This is weird.
I think cringe also works.
Ok, so we are now at the performative 'I have a family' stage of our conservative politicians realizing they don't actually have any meaningful, truthfully held values.
Republicans sure talk about hating post modernism, but they've done so, so much to prove that empty signifiers are the entirety of their politics.
Well, that and hurting people they don't like.
...
Maybe when they say 'think of the children' they really do just mean it as an entirely solipsistic thought exercise.
Maggie needs to tell him to fuck off and find someone who will let her be in campaign photos where they are together.
Hella fucking weird.
String weird incel vibes there.
Weirdos from top to bottom.
Also that syled slicked back hair with 2-day stubble is so off putting.
I think that's the Don Jr look?
signaling that ~~masc~~weirdulinity like a lighhouse.
Can I just borrow the wife? Mine is totally okay with that.
I think the issue here is, in typical conservative style, they just take and never offer anything in return.
quite telling that no woman will have this weird freak.
