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!

Ahh fuck off. You were backing a dude who admitted on camera to walking in on teenage girls changing and was civily liable for rape. Don't act surprised hes protecting pedos
Didn't she and her husband get together when she was a minor and he was 24 and had been convicted of indecent exposure to 2 minors at a bowling alley?
She was one of the minors, IIRC.
True love, yo. /s
But let's let her keep going after them even if stupid, any opposition can be beneficial.
Yeah, in the time honored tradition he pulled out his tiny hog in front of kids and then one of them married him. The one who became a grandma at 36. Said grandchild providing his dad with two separate charges of child abuse in 20 months.
The one who, as a US representative, was cranking hogs at the theatre while smoking the weed, before screaming at security who threw her out, denying everything 100% before security footage was released.
So yeah pretty much on the high ground.
He also admitted to Billy Bush and a camera crew that he grabs women’s private parts, and suggested that they let him do it because he’s famous. Additionally, during that same confession, he admitted to kissing women without permission, citing he can’t control himself.
When the tape was released, Trump said it was “locker room talk”. Which is literally not the point at all. The fact that you talk about abuse in only selective settings doesn’t absolve the abuse itself.
Additionally, in a 2023 deposition regarding a defamation lawsuit, Trump was questioned about the tape, and in response to whether stars can grab women by the genitals, replied:
Let's not forget that his uncle was a Nuclear
She protected a pedophile all the same
