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.

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!"

Criminals including the president
Criminals... Including the president.
Came here to say this.
PEDOnald is one of the most prominent of criminals.
I've been marathoning the Star Wars movies, since it's May. They hit differently given current events. I've been thinking about how Trump is comparable to the emperor but also comparable to Jabba the Hutt. He's a crime boss. The Untied States is currently run by a crime syndicate. But other factions not only allow it, they kiss up to him because he's so powerful
In regards to this Administration and their handlers I think the term corporate gangsters would be more apropro no?
“… criminals, like the President.”
He's paying them now so they'll do it again in 2.5 years...
He ain't going to just leave office if/when he loses the election
Not that laws even matter much anymore for Repugnantcons, but we do have some good ones on the books for dealing with acts of treason. If Biden had respected those laws given his mandate upon election, things would have been different.
America keeps letting traitors off the hook, and paying for it dearly.
He's setting up for the midterms. The goal is to declare a state of emergency in November and these guys are 10000% part of the plan.
He's only doing it because other people told him it's a good idea, but this is part of a couple dozen moves to solidify power in Nov by controlling, and if needed, invalidating, the elections.
He’s putting the idea in their head so they do it in 6 months.
Eh, yeah, of course, did anyone expect anything different?
