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!

This monster has to go. Not only should he lose but he should never be allowed in this country again.

he should never be allowed in this country again.

I'd appreciate not dumping your garbage on somebody else's doorstep, thank you very much.

Into space is fine then, right?

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Send him and Elon on a one-way trip to Mars.

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

The sun. I want to go to mars.

[–] Aganim@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

Somewhere up in high orbit sounds fine. In space nobody can hear you scream, not even Trump.

He should have been convicted at the second impeachment trial, but McConnell made up another rule that never existed before.

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 19 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

You guys can keep him. Just put him in an orange jumpsuit and throw him into one of your egregiously inhumane jails.

[–] Alwaysnownevernotme@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

Oh, but our worst jails are outside America.

He doesn't deserve to live. The penalty for sedition and treason is death.

One of the side effects of the past 8 years or so, that I really do not like, is that this piece of absolute garbage has made me earnestly wish for someone else to die. I don't want to be that person, but here we are...

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

We should bring back exile just for him. Send him to Antarctica or some shit.

[–] samus12345@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

Russia, since he loves Putin so much.
