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!

Your response to Trump threatening to burn everything to the ground is to ask anyone who isn't Trump what they're going to do to stop it? Not outrage at Trump?
Listen, if you can't tell me, in detail, the plan the bomb squad has to defuse the bomber's bombs, then I'm just going to have to assume the bomb squad is incompetent and vote for the bomber threatening to blow everyone up.
you expect a layperson to be capable of that? you're expectations are too high. that's the level of detail aftter you just need to go read their own words.
the Harris walz campaign has pages and pages of details about exactly what and how they plan to manage that. go read that. it surely has the answers.
I was making a sarcastic analogy aimed at how dumb the original commenter's request was. I do agree with you.
We've been living with the consequences of Trump for 8 years. The democrats have been in power for 4 years. I'm not aware of anything the democrats have done to make a dictator less likely. They haven't cut presidential powers. They haven't even attempted meaningful healthcare reform. But I'm the one sea lioning... Libs...
Democrats cant even pass bills that Republicans want because trump told them not to give 'biden a win'... you expect them to be able pass bills that would severely limited our dear supreme cheeto?
