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!

I cannot think of even but one single thing that Donald Trump has done to benefit the working class. Not even a single thing, no matter how small or petty.
He's getting rid of the Mexicans taking their job...
The jobs that none of them want to do in the first place...
For wages none of them would accept...
Wait...
See, for me this line of thinking is troublesome. It implies we have to or should rely on the exploitation of desperate people willing to work for pennies on the dollar because they have no legal recourse.
Fuck ICE, this administration, and everything else that's going on but let's not normalize the exploitation of desperate people to keep the machine churning.
So advocate for better wages for them. I bet even at $20/hr you would struggle to get an American to do the job.
Getting rid of them only creates problems.
Torturing them on the way out, is just evil.
Yeah, I'll do it for a living wage, which if I recall correctly is more than that where I live.
Oh I'm not implying that's a good thing at all... Thats what the MAGAts seem to believe, they just never get to that last word there, never get to the realization point.
I'd prefer we get rid of the CEOs that are giving our jobs away.
Some of them burned a few calories standing up from the couch and walking into the polling station to vote. They've burned through more savings to pay for groceries and everything else because of all the trumpflation in both terms, but they at least burned off most of a French fry.
He killed NAFTA, which was good for Mexican workers (NAFTA exploited Mexican labor)
I don't even think America is about us. Republican or Democrat I honestly think we are played out. It's basically a repetitive good cop bad cop lifestyle.
People should remember what real humanity is and live for that more and America less.
For now, the good cop team wants me to have documents that will let me leave the country. The bad cop team is denying me a passport.
I have no idea why anyone would ever think Donald Trump of all people would ever want to do that.
Banned those harmful artificial food dyes.
Aaand that's about it.
"Harmful"
I prefer my substance control to be based on evidence, not vibes.
Has that actually happened though? I thought they were just talking about doing it.
He doesn't need to because that's not what his supporters want. They want racism and hatred and that's what he provides.
