Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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!

Is she trying to get out of going to Jr's wedding as well?

"I don't care, do you?"

[–] bearoftheisle@europe.pub 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Why the fuck would they target her? Who gives a shit about her?

That would be suuuuuch a stupid move on their part. Murdering Ivanka would give Donvict support for his war of choice.

If it's not an orchestrated story, that is.

[–] Maeve@kbin.earth 23 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Uh huh. Let's see the evidence.

[–] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 0 points 1 day ago

Yeah this seems like a very stupid and ill-conceived thing to do. She's about the only Trump that comes off the least bit sympathetic to the average American.

If anything, this would have Donvict unloading atomic weapons on Iran. Not what they want.

The Kennedy brothers were pretty eager to use assassinations as foreign policy. I hope the Trumps don't get the same "live by the sword" lesson that the other American royals got.

Iraqi. Not Iran. That's what news outlets say. Despite the title of this news. Other news says would-be assassin was Iraqi.

But it's probably not true regardless

pussies….wrong T

She gives off that "Whore of Babylon" vibe.

[–] SailorFuzz@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

Oh no............. .

Would probably be doing Dump a favor

[–] devolution@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Cool. When it succeeds, Barron and Trump Jr. next?

[–] kylie_kraft@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Wouldn't work. Trump doesn't care about his sons because he's never wanted to fuck them.

[–] devolution@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

He didn't want to fuck Tiffany either...

[–] kylie_kraft@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

I don't think he remembers Tiffany exists
