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!

lol
I wish I had something more to say, but this is fucking hilarious in so many ways...
That was my only thought. Just LOL. My brain broke from reading that line.
Yeah I had too many hilarious thoughts all trying to squeeze out of my brain at once and it was a traffic jam.
Is Musk out of money? That's hilarious. Did Trump just suffer a huge stinging loss in both money and PR? Yes. Are these hits coming faster than Trump can field them? Obviously! They haven't even managed to deal with Kamala yet and now this.
Trump is off balance and against the ropes right now just as the Dems had a massive infusion of money and energy and this is the best I've felt in months. It won't last. They'll find their messaging and start punching back, and the excitement of Kamala stepping up will be hard to sustain until November. But right now we are on top, Trump is scared and angry, and it feels great.
It’s not even true. He still has a superPAC for trump, and he didn’t actually deny the figure. He just said the original story wasn’t accurate that he’s donating it to trump. But to the superPAC. So the story hasn’t changed. This is all spin. And they just printed it.
