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!

Love how much this email looks and sounds like a generated way to steal people's personal information to scam them out of money. Not on the nose at all.
They sent shit like this all the time. This is a perfectly normal email from the Trump campaign and MAGA people get hundreds of things like this every day. Every single one of them is a scam, including this one. Trump isn't running for office, this isn't a campaign message. Its literally him extorting money paid to him as a private citizen using his role as president to threaten people.
Edit:
For example. Imagine if the county animal control boss sent you an email that said that you need to transfer money to his personal bank account or he is going to send some guys to your house to take your dogs. That is literally what Trump is doing here, but somehow its not illegal because its Trump doing it.
I hope that if his supporters feel fear from this, they'll have some Introspection that he'll turn on even the people supporting him. Just like Hitler, no one is immune from turning against by the great dictator, the inner circle continues to get smaller and smaller until its just the dictator...
HIs supporters are afraid literally all the time, its the thing that keeps them engaged. They have 24/7 fear bait media coming in from all sides all the time. Fear and anger are all they can feel. This is no different, its the only thing they respond to at this point.
But they fear all the wrong things.
They fear exactly what they are told to fear by people who profit from them being afraid.
🤷♂️ here's to hoping it wakes some people up when the fear is about the very person they voted for and gave money to, not from liberals, trans people, homeless, etc etc. The nefarious "others". Their guy is the one making them feel fear now. Not from others but from him directly.
Sure. That will happen as soon as people stop going to church because the guy up front is the source of all their guilt and unhappiness too.
I dunno about that... some of em also feel their sisters and cousins
It looks like something out of geocities
