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!

Summary

Plans for a potential Trump third term are already being discussed, despite constitutional limitations.

Trump's former strategist Steve Bannon has suggested they're "working on it," while Trump himself has made several hints about running again after 2028.

Some Republicans, like Congressman Andy Ogles, have proposed amending the 22nd Amendment to allow three terms.

Constitutional law professor Michele Goodwin warns that Trump's administration has already shown "a display of lawlessness" with controversial executive orders and policies, while critics note Democratic opposition has been largely absent, allowing these discussions to gain traction.

Laws aren't even suggestions anymore, Orange fuck blatantly breaks all laws and nobody even bats an eye. This shit hole country is failing at the most basic level. The overthrow of the government has already happened. It's already over.

Stay safe, and be careful with social media.

Fucking hell guys we haven't even made it to 6 months of this term. I doubt we will survive him running a third term. If we don't rise up we aren't going have a country in 4 years. Shit musk kids are about to break social security altogether canceling everyone from getting their checks. Just think what happens when that done. How much money are they going steal? Also they are floating selling all our gold on bitcoin. Just other way to rob us blind.

Russia is going win the cold war after all and America will be a backwards disease filled shit hole. Speaking ot which with RKJ in charge we going watch measles and other preventable disease spread across the country like a plague. Of course sure we will also go to war with rest of the world with Trump threatening all our allies.

America is done, what matters 2028. We got to make it through 2025 and that going be tough enough.

HitlerPig has this obsession about the gold in Ft. Knox, speculating about what woukd happen if we opened it and it was EMPTY?

He's obviously scheming with his buddies Skum and Putin to steal it, and act all shocked when it goes missing.

Was it Puerto Rico that he called a shithole country? Must have been because they have too much order and too little corruption.

[–] barneypiccolo@lemm.ee 3 points 3 days ago

He once complained about all these immigrants coming from shithole countries, and wondering why we couldnt allow them in from nice like Sweden.

Hey, Dickhead! Its because WE are a shithole country, just a slightly better one than some others, so they come here. Why would people want to leave a successful government like Sweden's, with a country that ranks near the top of personal happiness to come HERE?

[–] Harvey656@lemmy.world 8 points 4 days ago

Yeah, he did say that. Probably because they make food better than McDonald's.
