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!

“If somebody breaks into my house, they’re getting shot,” she said, laughing. “I probably should not have said that. My staff will deal with that later.”

When I think about it

Instead of a debate let's go to a range and do a little target shooting.

Watching Trump fumble around, hit nothing, getting smoked by a woman.

Sounds like a lot of fucking fun to watch.

Oh wait we already saw that lolololol.

As a convicted felon, Trump can't have a gun. ;)

[–] gamermanh@lemmy.dbzer0.com 19 points 1 month ago (1 children)

He can't even have bullets on his person

So for that like .1ms where he was being "hit" by that bullet were technically him breaking the law

[–] SPRUNT@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

Finally! He broke the law! We got him!

oh shit, what's he gonna do for his vote casting photoshoot in Florida

Upside down bible

[–] ATDA@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

Oh sheesh I totally forgot. Hilarious.

[–] WoahWoah@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I guess it would be entrapment, but it would be funny as hell if Harris goaded him into a target shooting competition, handed him a gun, and then immediately had him arrested. 🤣

"Felon in possession!"

[–] YeetPics@mander.xyz 4 points 1 month ago

And yet they're still trying to give it to him

[–] TheKMAP@lemmynsfw.com 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

"I bet your tiny hands couldn't even hold an ar15"

No fucking way any sane person would wanna be at a gun range with him tho

[–] Rivalarrival 4 points 1 month ago

Seems like the gun ranges are coming to him. Everywhere he goes seems to become one.

[–] TehWorld@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

I’d bet money that DonOld has never actually loaded a gun. If he’s ever actually shot one it was probably handed to him with the safety off and a lot of prayer.

[–] HelixDab2@lemm.ee 5 points 1 month ago

...Then pit both of them against someone that goes to a monthly IDPA or USPSA match.

(My point is, if you want to be able to use a gun when you're under a lot of pressure to perform well, you gotta practice under pressure too.)
