Of course his idiot dumbshit supporters all assume they won't be the ones suffering, it'll just be everyone else, and that makes it okay to them.

It is far more than okay with them when the right people are suffering hardships. They would elect the most overtly corrupt person to ever exist and destroy the country just to make sure the right people get hurt.

They don't understand that rooting for them, doesn't make them part of the team.

They don't understand that Donald Trump loathes them

"The forest was shrinking, but the trees kept voting for the axe, for the axe was clever and convinced the trees that because his handle was made of wood he was one of them."

This monster has to go. Not only should he lose but he should never be allowed in this country again.

He should have been convicted at the second impeachment trial, but McConnell made up another rule that never existed before.

You guys can keep him. Just put him in an orange jumpsuit and throw him into one of your egregiously inhumane jails.

I'd appreciate not dumping your garbage on somebody else's doorstep, thank you very much.

Into space is fine then, right?

[-] Aganim@lemmy.world 4 points 4 hours ago

Somewhere up in high orbit sounds fine. In space nobody can hear you scream, not even Trump.

He doesn't deserve to live. The penalty for sedition and treason is death.

This is the first time a politician is honest about something.

But it's for the absolutely wrong reasons.

This is just blatantly saying "HEY! I'M GOING TO BE ABSOLUTE SHIT TO YOU ALL! AND IT'S GOING TO BE ROUGH! AND IT'S GOING TO BE NASTY! BLOODY!"

Like okay okay, we have had months leading up to this to know. We don't need you to remind us yet again about how you'll do things.

Its almost as though he just doesn't care about anyone but himself.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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!
