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!

Nothing helps stop Trump bleeding support from the senior woman demographic quite like a young whippersnapper punching a 70-year-old woman to the ground for her support of Harris.

Not only that:

According to witnesses, Bossio said, the 17-year-old was walking away from a separate altercation with a male Harris supporter when he struck Tomasko and knocked her to the ground.

He did it because he was pissed at a male supporter but was too big of a wuss to throw hands with someone who could plausibly fight back, so to solve that, he sucker-punched an old lady. They're not just abusive garbage, they're pathetic cowards.

About as courageous as his role model.

Trump supporters are lower than snake shit.

[–] Breezy@lemmy.world 16 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

I told my coworker today that there is no good trump supporter. They'll are either ignorant, selfish, or vile. The first group i dont blame because they're idiots, the other 2 groups can go fuck off to the void.

[–] FunderPants@lemmy.ca 5 points 15 hours ago (2 children)

The scared, stupid, and selfish model. You don't have to be all three, but any one of them and Trump will take advantage of it to bring you over.

[–] barsquid@lemmy.world 9 points 14 hours ago

I am all three but I am still not a vile enough piece of shit to choose Donald.

[–] Breezy@lemmy.world 4 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

You're missing the vile people. There are people looking forward to the next Civil war. Saddly my aunt is one so i know it must be more common then we all would hope.

[–] nomous@lemmy.world 1 points 14 hours ago (2 children)

That would be a combo of 2 and 3.

[–] Breezy@lemmy.world 2 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

No it is not. People fucking wish for ww3 without benefitting from it. And theres the true nazis that just wanna kill people. Those do not jusy fit 2 and 3.

[–] nomous@lemmy.world 0 points 12 hours ago* (last edited 12 hours ago) (1 children)

Idk I'd consider most "vile" people basically just selfish and stupid, nazis included.

[–] Breezy@lemmy.world 0 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

People are stupid without being selfish/ vise versa, and people can be vile while being neither stupid nor selfish.

So whats your point?

[–] nomous@lemmy.world 0 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

"My point" is you're a fucking pedant prick.

[–] Breezy@lemmy.world 0 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Has no one one ever told you that the first one to start calling another names is the genuine dumb ass.

[–] nomous@lemmy.world 0 points 11 hours ago

"What's your point?"

[–] auzy@lemmy.world 20 points 21 hours ago (2 children)

Snakes at least keep rat populations under control

Trump enthusiasts generally are rats

Not these ones. Some of these ones think there are Jewish space lasers and wear sanitary pads on their ears to impress the king rat.

Damn, if only there were more venomous snakes at Trump rallies.
