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!

I think he's just regressing to early childhood. I bet his KKK-associated dad played recordings of Hitler's speeches

He apparently reads Hitler's speeches in bed. Has a book of them on his nightstand.

I find this highly unlikely as I say Trump is barely literate.

It's ok cuz the book was given to him by a Jew. (It wasn't, but he said it was in an interview and it turns out that the gift-giver's name has "Gold" in it, so the Nazi-flavored Cheeto assumed he was a Jew)

Is there a larger treatment on Fred vs Donald?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Apologies for the American ignorance, but I don't understand what you mean by "treatment" in this context

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago (2 children)

I just mean like an episode or series on Fred Trump and his influence on Mr. Trump

Oh! Yea, the felon has frequently talked about how his dad was an inspiration and role model in multiple speeches. Take this with a grain of salt though, because I hate his fascist voice and haven't independently verified this

Prior to eviction laws, Papa Trump would plan to tear down slum apartment buildings, but allow black families to move in. Then kick them all out the day of demolition, without warning. The Trumps and Kushners have all always been literal psychopaths.
