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.

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.

Just the 31% that voted for him.
What about the 36% that didn’t bother to vote?
The sizable chunk of democrats who aren’t doing fucking anything or don’t care because it doesn’t affect them personally
Fuck magnets too.
How the fuck do they even work?
I’m more concerned with how they managed to make rocks thinks than how they made rocks be attracted to one another
They engrave magic glyphs on them bro.
Trans-rocks. When did magnets become woke?!
/satire
Americans voted for Republicans to control all branches of the government.
Nah, as a fellow American that's not how it works. Their shit is our shit too even if you didn't want the shit. You can definitely say that to other Americans tho.
When you hear anger towards the country, don't take it personally, they have every right to be angry at America and it's not really fair to jump in and say "but not me!". Let them vent, if you need to say something agree with them lol
Abs the percentage that stayed home or protest voted
France is an interesting choice as the first ones to threaten. They might be the country most willing to tell America to fuck off and spend an evening lighting Teslas on fire.
DEI initiatives don’t really exist there like they do in the United States. Their constitution already bans employers from making distinctions based on race, gender, religion, etc. The closest thing France has that I know of is a requirement for corporate boards to be 40% women. They aren’t going to change that law because Trump threw a hissy fit.
Plus, DEI doesn’t even really mean anything specific in the United States anymore. It’s just a dog whistle (like “woke”) Republicans use to signal that they’re racist and sexist and stir up racial animus. They use it when it doesn’t even make sense. Trump blamed “DEI hires” when an ARMY helicopter crashed into a passenger jet even though all the pilots and the air traffic controllers were white men. He blamed the LA wildfires on DEI.
DEI is basically the modern n word.
I was going to say, it's not always a derogatory word. Those who are still aligned with DEI don't use it that way. So yeah, I guess it is.
"Europeans are beholden to US policy."
lol ok.
What a putz. EU, U do U.
Small Govt. say what?
I've come to learn that when they say "small government" they don't mean that what the government touches is small and focused. They mean that the size is physically small but have the same, if not more, power than a large government body.
Basically they want fascism and a monarchy.
There's no smaller government than a dictatorship
Small enough to fit snuggly between you and your rights.
Small enough to perhaps fit inside a uterus..?
That's a good way to have foreign companies that are currently invested in the US to pull all of their investments and fire everyone working for them over here.
Everything he does is just making us more isolated from the world.
I'm increasingly seeing that as the point. I've believed since 2016 that he's either intentionally or being easily manipulated to serve Russia's interests and obviously I'm not alone here.
But at this point, dismantling US soft political power, military power, economic power - every action Trump is taking is directly damaging the US with no apparent self-interested payoff. Sure, it's plausibly deniable and just on the edge of conspiracy-sounding to the public and mainstream, but the theory that Trump acting to destroy the US on behalf of Russia is currently the best fit to the evidence.
100% agree. He's been a Russian agent from the start working towards the dismantling of the US in every way. Including, I think, trying to push the country so far that it splits up so the US is no more. Putin's revenge on the US "winning" the Cold war.
Make America Go Alone!
This is the lens through which I see his actions, too. I have one additional twist, which is if it doesn’t benefit him personally, it needs to go. Even if it’s replaced with something 10% the value, he now owns 100% of that 10%.
@Xanthobilly @ReallyActuallyFrankenstein partly this. Possibly also dementia + power-crazed wannabe dictator I suspect
Everything he does is just making us more isolated from the world.
That is why tariffs make sense. If you were preparing the US for WW3 then you would do exactly what Trump is doing.
European countries tell trump to take his tiny mushroom dick and shove it up his shit encrusted asshole.
Trump can go fuck himself.
Or else what, he will double tariff them?
Double-secret-tariffs!
You better listen otherwise I'll crash my economy!
