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!

Donny's just sad he'd never be able to get someone to spend 77 years with him.

Where's Melania?

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 56 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I doubt most people can stand to spend 7 minutes with him.

I forgot about Reince Priebus.

Why are all the people he works with so stereotypically evil?

[–] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 26 points 11 months ago (1 children)

If you wrote a b movie and named the cartoonish villain "Reince Priebus," people would complain that it is a stupid name.

[–] paraphrand@lemmy.world 18 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Sounds like something George Lucas would come up with.

[–] JWBananas@startrek.website 7 points 11 months ago

One Scaramucci equals 10 days

[–] Uniquitous@lemmy.one 44 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Trying to get the pool boy to notice her.

[–] blindbunny@lemmy.ml 8 points 11 months ago

This is probably the best answer

[–] spider@lemmy.nz 27 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Where’s Melania?

Waiting in the wings for her cash and prizes.

(She might need to consider a Plan B for that.)

[–] Nightwingdragon@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

(She might need to consider a Plan B for that.)

If she didn't, she'd better hurry. GOP tryin to outlaw that shit everywhere.

[–] AbidanYre@lemmy.world 19 points 11 months ago (3 children)

77 years is a lot of mooches.

Also, I think you mean Melanie

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 17 points 11 months ago (2 children)

A micromooch is known as a stormy and it's based on how long he lasted inside her.

[–] blindbunny@lemmy.ml 15 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Please don't make your follow lemmings sick.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 12 points 11 months ago

Sorry, you have to suffer what escapes my brain. I don't make the rules, I just enforce them.

[–] Nightwingdragon@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

A micromooch is known as a stormy and it’s based on how long he lasted inside her.

I didn't think they were able to measure time periods that short.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

It's possible, but only with the most precise of measuring devices.

[–] Dagwood222@lemm.ee 13 points 11 months ago (1 children)

The 'Melanie' story is new to me.

Keeping up with all of Trump's idiot stories is beyond any one person's capacity

[–] AbidanYre@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I know it's petty, but dear God, the man can't even spell his own wife's name correctly.

[–] Dagwood222@lemm.ee 1 points 11 months ago

It's not petty, imho. He'd lose his mind if he were introduced as 'Ronald.'

[–] blindbunny@lemmy.ml 5 points 11 months ago

I can't believe I forgot about this

[–] eran_morad@lemmy.world 9 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I think it’s far worse than this. I don’t think there’s anything in the world that could bring him happiness. His pathology will not allow for it.

You know the way that the love of your family, or love for your family, brings you happiness? Yeah, that doesn’t work for him. His parents fucked him up real good.

[–] Smoogs@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

He is the poster child for the end product of spoilt child with the ultimate helicopter parent.

[–] Frozengyro@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

4 was too much
