Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. 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. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.

No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link.

Why the fuck are we talking about this asshole like he's the president.
He's currently being tried for multiple crimes and some states are making measures to remove him from the ballots to even allow him to run for the presidency.
Why are we talking about what he he wants to do in his insane little ramblings should he become president again as if he were already president?
Because every poll has him winning. I know it's 11 months to the election but people have to realize the real danger he poses to America.
You are preaching to the choir my friend.
The problem is these posts are on a website that most Republicans aren't even going to visit, and the common electorate is not going to visit and it's a fairly small website compared to the likes of Reddit and x, and so all this is doing is agitating the choir of people who are not likely to vote for that shit stain.
Like I get it, the world is in a pretty shitty place but telling me how and why I shouldn't vote for Trump is pointless because I'm already not going to vote for that fucker. You put a gun to my head and tell me to put a check mark next to his name or you pull the trigger I'm going to tell you I hope you brought enough fucking ammo to kill me.
These polls aren't to be trusted 90% of the time. I could poll my friends and slap it on the right news site and push it as legit.
Most polls don't express a methodology and it has been realized polls don't usually reach the young voters. Polling suggested a red wave that never came, twice. Polling had Hillary winning and she didn't.
In my opinion it is borderline psy op at this point and not something to view as a scientific backbone.
Polling suggest Trump winning could be to scare voters towards Biden or maybe to rally Trumpers into believing they have a shot because a lot of them are pretty demoralized and uninterested in Trump anymore regardless of what they try to sell you. Yeah we all know pro Trump people but at this point there are more anti Biden people and that just isn't that strong, most Biden voters are anti Biden.
Because the media conglomerates, all of them, made more profit during the Trump years than they did under Biden. The more they say his name the more money they make.
