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!

In all fairness, both Keef and Pump are famously dipshits. They're both literally high school dropouts.
While Keef especially can definitely pop out bangers, he's not exactly a person anyone comes to for anything intelligent.
Kanye West is one of the greatest rappers and producers in music history and is famously both stupid and an asshole. Being talented does not equate to being smart.
Chief Keef is hated in his own neighborhood because instead of bailing out a lifelong friend from jail, he blew 25k at a strip club. He's also not allowed back to Illinois because of a shitload of unpaid child support.
Character wise, I wonder why he might like Trump?
Keef and pump are drug addled idiots, Kanye is a man with mental illness who is too paranoid to take the drugs that will help him. Kanye has a lot of work to do to get back in peoples good graces but his is more of a sad story than a he’s an idiot that’s it story
I think all 3 are sad stories, but it's better to be disadvantaged and also one of the richest men alive than to be disadvantaged and not
I empathize with West, but cannot accept him using his global platform to demean mental health responses, because my family fell apart due to my mother's similar rejection of mental health treatment.
Once he goes public, especially with his passion, with that stance, he opens himself up to criticism for it, in my view.
Also the whole slavery thing.
Kanye is definitely stupid af and I say this as a person who will routinely go weeks at a time only listening to his albums end to end.
