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!

Lose a little more faith in humanity? What are you fishing for here?
So in other words, letting Trump get away with it is the safest option for the state as there will be no consequences, whereas if Trump is jailed, the right wing goes to war.
That ignorance and overconfidence will get you and the rest of the left killed. The American right wing is one of the most heavily armed groups in the world. They have infiltrated and taken over large swaths of the U.S. government. They have successfully oppressed you for centuries. They are 100% capable of killing you all and your refusal to confront that fact will guarantee they will murder you if you don't change.
Lol ok, sounds like a basement dweller thinking their badass. I served in the USMC, many friends still in, no one is helping this idiot do anything. And if right wing but jobs go crazy they will feel the might of the US military just like any other enemy of the USA.
People like you have no idea how combat actually works. How important command and control are. Established logistics and supporting roles, everything cooks to combat medics. The right can shout all they want, but hicks with guns and a 5th grade reading level will hold strong about as much as tissue paper when met with the US military.
But ya, the group afraid of men in high heels will hold strong in their resolve when they start seeing their friends die. Sure.
You are definitely overconfident in what the majority of violence one group would do to another.
You're the type of kid who wouldn't shut up at recess about how your dad could beat up anyone else's dad, aren't you?
We whooped their asses 150+ years ago we’ll do it again. But the majority are just old, fat and lazy so there won’t be a “war”
Aside from your snide tone, still not really sure what you are fishing for.
Would you be happier if I threatened violence?
So let people threaten and blackmail the government? Sets a real nice precedent.
