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.

Trump wants to be a dictator.
Then why didnt he do it last time?
Did you miss out on Jan 6th?
So dictators just give up power when they are told to?
Is that what you think happened on J6? Failure is not the same as giving up.
I think a riot happened on jan 6th. What about May 29th?
Are you suggesting that an attempt to halt the certification of a presidential election endorsed and encouraged by the sitting president in the hopes of avoiding abdicating power is equivalent to a protest over police brutality?
Legal warfare, I dont like it either, but the losers do this a lot. If jan 6th was an insurrection or whatever, what was May 29th?
Show me one time Democrats have attempted to stop the certification of an election by force. You can't just pretend this happens as a standard matter of course.
May 29th was a riot and not an insurrection because it had nothing to do with trying to overturn an election. Are you getting it yet?
I'm going with he's clearly a bot or he's "touched".
A bot would surely have better grammar.
I've never seen CableMonster have a sane take.
Its not the same mechanism, but Hilary with making false russian claim and Gore with all the counting shenanigans.
How were they going to overturn an election by occupying a building?
In what way do claims of Russian interference - which has some truth to it btw - directly result in the overturning of an election?
Insane to present an example of an election being manipulated in Bush's favor as an attempt by Gore to overturn an election. How are we supposed to have a discussion when we clearly live in different realities?
The attack on the Capitol was part of a wider plan orchestrated by Trump and his backers. The fake electors, the call to Georgia's secretary of state, the baseless accusations of voter fraud... All of these combine to paint a pretty clear picture. Hell, the crowd at the Capitol called to hang Mike Pence because he refused to count the fake Certificates of Ascertainment.
I'm only responding for the benefit of others since I know you're just going to deny all of this or try to claim Democrats did the same or worse, but I really do hope you overcome your delusions someday.
Hillary undermined his whole presidency. Al Gore tried to use law to win election.
Conspiracy theory...
Yes, the fact that Russia ran a coordinated disinformation campaign that favored Trump does undermine his legitimacy a bit, but let's not miss the forest for the trees. The fact that Trump lost the popular vote in 2016 and lost the election entirely in 2020 is more significant.
61,000 ballots were not counted by mistake. Gore used the law to try and have them counted and the conservative supreme court interfered for political reasons. Gore was in the right.
The amount of evidence supporting this theory rivals the theory of gravity.
Rivals the theory of gravity. I love it. I'm going to use it, thank you.
Yeah got it you believe things that are not true, I cant argue with that. Have a great day!!
What a hilarious take comrade.
Sorry man, I hate commies since they want to take my childrens rights.
He hasn’t conceded the previous election yet…
In his and his cultists eyes he never stopped being the president
So you are afraid of imaginary dictators?
What flavor was the kool aid? I mean, you didn't just have a glass, you drank the whole pitcher.
