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!

What Resistance? This what people voted for! The time to resist was at the ballot box.
As for viewership drops, of course the media is losing viewers and journalists losing subscribers (WAPO). Most of the people consuming that type of political content are liberals who obviously didn’t appreciate the medias game of normalizing Trump and right wing rhetoric.
You expect Liberals to just sit there and watch as panelist blame “Wokeness”, “DEI” and Dems being too establishment for Trump winning? No, Liberals know that’s bullshit, they know Joe Biden’s domestic track record, and his pro working class stances.
The only ones buying that are far left chaos agents (a majority of this sub), and far right MAGAs (a majority of Twitter).
Exactly this. Its is not 2016. He was shockingly upfront about the chaos and corruption he was planning, both in word and deed... and he won, not just the Electoral College but the popular vote as well. I'm more disappointed in the American public than I am afraid of Trump. If anything stops him from ending the republic, it won't be a liberal resistance; it will be the corruption and incompetence within his own camp. And if he does manage to destroy us all, it will be because we deserved it.
the quiet part out loud. :( pay attention to why you said this. politics and loving your neighbor does not end on election night.
