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.

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.

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.

How does this motherfucker keep getting Ls??? In a sane world his campagn would have ended like 20 controversies ago
Given everything we're watching unfold, half of Americans are genuinely brainwashed fools.
No rational person of sound mind can support Trump unless they are in the tiny handful of people that will personally benefit from a Trump presidency. 99% of people will suffer, people that have any semblance of agency don't vote for that.
I'm really starting to believe that number is exceptionally lower and that the polls we are being shown are just straight up lies like the rest of the GOP.
I'm sure that's just my optimistic view tainting my thoughts but I just can't except this is real. There just can't be this many low intelligence people, right?
Honestly the GOP dont even got to fake anything for the polls to be off. Between the fact that a lot of people just ignore them and Trump supporters are more likely to actually answer them that means the data is skewed in that direction, plus over compensation for Trump since he over performed in the exit polls and ya end up with kinda shitty data.
My personal bet is that his base is actually even smaller than we expected at this point due to natual attrition, and the fact most people just dont care enough to yap to pollsters.
In a sane world "grab them by the pussy" would have been more than enough to kill his chances of ever getting elected for anything.
In a sane world his chances would have tanked the second he publicly, on stage made fun of a disabled journalist.
Per his mentor, Roy Cohn, some rules:
No 1: attack, attack, attack.
No 2: admit nothing, deny everything.
No 3: always claim victory, never admit defeat.
Sadly, this tactic works.
It's the racism. People like the racism.
It only makes sense if you've been brainwashed into believing the USA is at the edge of collapse. But not due to extreme capitalism profiting some very few, extremely wealthy individuals but because migrants and woke culture are somehow destroying the religious, conservative white majority.
It's horrible but I've got to admire the brilliance of the ultra-wealthy of pitting most of us against each other while they accumulate more wealth than ever before at our expense.
So much information on everything available at our fingertips but I never imagined what social media would do to us. We are such easily manipulated monkey's that with foresight it seems obvious they would exploit it for their own gain.
So easy though.
True, it's a very old trick, but it has been turned up to 11 with social media and 24/7 TV "news."
politics blinds some people
Money. That’s how.
