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.

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.

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.

FYI, in Slavic languages ,the name Vladimir is properly shortened to Vova (Вова), and the name Vlad is the abbreviation for Vladislav
Just as a reminder:
US Constitution Provisions
-
Article I, Section 4 (Elections Clause)
- Grants states primary authority to set "Times, Places and Manner" of congressional elections.
- Allows Congress to override state regulations, ensuring federal oversight.
- Originally, states determined voter eligibility (e.g., property ownership), but the Constitution required alignment with state legislative voter qualifications for House elections.
-
Presidential Elections (Article II, Section 1)
- Establishes the Electoral College, with states appointing electors "in such Manner as the Legislature thereof may direct".
- The Constitution specifies minimal qualifications for electors, leaving selection processes to states.
-
Amendments Expanding Voting Rights
- 15th Amendment (1870): Prohibits denying the vote based on "race, color, or previous condition of servitude".
- 19th Amendment (1920): Bans sex-based voting restrictions.
- 24th Amendment (1964): Eliminates poll taxes in federal elections.
- 26th Amendment (1971): Lowers voting age to 18.
US Code (Title 52)
Title 52 of the US Code, titled "Voting and Elections", codifies federal laws enforcing constitutional voting rights:
-
52 U.S.C. §10101: Explicitly prohibits racial discrimination in voting and mandates uniform voter qualifications.
-
Voting Rights Act of 1965 (52 U.S.C. §§10301–10702):
-
Bans discriminatory practices (e.g., literacy tests) and requires federal preclearance for election law changes in jurisdictions with historical discrimination .
-
Directly implements the 15th Amendment, leading to a surge in Black voter registration post-1965.
-
Subtitle II: Addresses election administration, including voter registration and accessibility standards
-
You seem to be quoting legislation as if it matters to the current regime
This is an act of war.
It absolutely is.
Question remains, how will americans stop it from happening.
Start executing congress and senate members one by one until there's enough support for impeachment, but keep going until he's in prison. They will either die or leave if they want to not die.
Where did you get a copy of my Presidential platform!? The wood chipper must feed...
Remember that Mussolini guy?
I mean, we wont, but that would be nice.
I wonder who else we don’t remember
Revolt or coup
The party of small government and state's rights, ladies and gentlemen.
He also hates all the other amendments and the rest of the constitution as well. For Hume it's all a roadblock preventing (or slowing it seems) him from becoming an all powerful dictator for life.
You murcans amaze me. Your country is circling the drain at the hands of a person who is a serial rapist, conman, pedofile, bankrupt, thief and more. Yet you concern yourself with whether or not he’s honouring his ‘word’ to obey your laws?

And the thing for me is I genuinely don't think anyone has ever been more blatantly these things. Like so obviously evil. Cartoonishly so.
Some of us aren't wondering. We fully know he's full of shit and has shit the bed.
Trump also shit his pants on live TV yesterday. Nothing but shit flows out of this creature. Why wont he just go away?
Trump also shit his pants on love TV yesterday.
... what now?
It's The second time I read this, must be true.
There's convincing video too.
I will just believe you on that.
You know that document he "swore" to support and defend?
He's not done anything to support it in the past, why would he start now?
He's not kept a promise (or oath, or contract, or equivalent) either.
I'm sure this has nothing to do with seeing deep-red seats flipped to blue.
I am the smartest president ever! Watch me rig the elections and get away with it! I’m the bestest most intelligent man person ever! Who shit in my pants again? Biden? Obamda? Thank you for your attention to this matter. DJT 🫲🍊🫱
Trump knows only one amendment, the TRUMP AMENDMENT, in it says "i can do whatever i want, say whatever i want because i'm such a bastard even my shit is abandoning me and i don't care how much i fuck up or how many lives i destroy, i'll take as much as i can down before i go" so the others don't exist anymore.
Go ahead and try to organize that for yourself, without congressional funding to run it (because that would not be constitutional). It's meaningless if the states don't fund and run them. We can talk about an amendment if you really want but he'll die long before it kicks in.
Im a bit amazed he’s still walking around. He looks terrible.
My grandmother was kept alive in an Alzheimers ward for almost a decade beyond recognition of anyone or the ability to care for herself in any way. You can coast along without a lot of cognitive function as long as the meds and pacemaker keep your heart going. I'd rather die, personally.
Yes. But in a facility a nutritionist is overseeing your meals.
Fair point
Well unless states start to stand up for themselves and actually withhold tax payments; he's going to appropriate the funds from other federal programs to impose his desires. Anyone that doesn't participate will just be marked as 'non-voter' leaving nothing but his supporters to assert his position as King.
Well, right now, sure.
He hates most of the constitution, though.
Too many syllables and not enough pictures.
Congress could impeach and remove Trump from office but they don't want to
