Which party I wonder...
politics
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.
- 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.
- 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!

It's crazy, it's always the party you'd most expect.
The one prone to violence and has control issues, then wonders why no one likes them except dumb, or sociopathic people, so they make up false equivalencies and conspiracies to justify their own sad existence? Hopefully the voters wake up and do a purge. Especially in the midterms.
"Libertarians" who always seem to vote Republican
That of law and order, supposedly
Gotta keep the pigs employed somehow.
Man, so much violence from both sides... It's hard to say.
I hate Illinois Nazis.
Is this the second elderly who got punched in the face this election by a magat? I think it's the second elderly punched in the face by a magat.
❤️Family values❤️
It's like the fifth or sixth. All Trump psychos doing the attacking, of course.
Second so far ...
The day is young, so many elderly out there for a young MAGA to assault!
That's one way to stop a trump vote, ask them to follow the rules and be curtious to others till they punch you in the face and get ejected from the voting location.
We need more people that can take a punchat voting locations. We only have so many old people.
Magats PUNCHING elderly people is JOE BIDENS fault because Joe Biden NEVER told Republicans NOT to Punch Elderly People! Family Values!
Let me guess who he was planning on voting for.
FUCK YOU OLD MAN I NEED TO PROTECT WOMENS HEALTH!
according to the article he didnt wait in line. thats the punch line
Hopefully he did this before he voted
Sounds like he won't have to worry about voting for a long time, since I'm guessing theres at least one felony somewhere in those charges.
What a piece of schmidt.
Well on the plus side, if he gets convicted (likely) he'll be a felon who won't be able to vote again ever.
Illinois allows felons to vote once they’re not actively serving a sentence in prison.
If his party wins, no one will vote again ever. Or if they do it will be in a sham election.
I'm usually not one for disenfranchising felons, but when the offense is attacking the elections process itself I can make an exception!
He may just be counting on a lifetime Trump dictatorship (complete with a pardon for his assault, since he did it for the "greater good")
That's OK, he can still run for president!
24-year-old Daniel Schmidt
tch. Danny, Danny, Danny. You done fucked up Danny boy.
Schmidt, huh? Good German name innit. Is that a tattoo on your neck there ol Danster? Hey - I hear in prison you can meet new people!
Y'see Danny - what we have here is something we call an egregious crime. Can you say egregious? . . . very close! Anyway, you've got a room full of people who saw you act like a total MAGAt and punch a poll worker. They don't like that Danny. They're gonna testify, Danny. You're fucked on this one Danny.
But hey. Your demented rapist sociopath god will surely pardon you right? Good thing you didn't make the national news with a big ol' picture of your stupid ass face for - y'know - future gangs or whatever it is you may have wanted to do with your life or whatever.
On the other hand - it's a hell of an origin story for someone who never shows up in social media or the news again and spends their life helping others because they fucked up so bad. There's some audacious hope!
The funny thing is agg. battery is a felony in Illinois which means he would lose his right to vote.
Another trump turd who will not vote.
Now they will claim the election is rigged because someone was prevented from entering the voting area.
