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!

Rabies
That would be hilarious, in a really cynical way. I’m just imagining a literally rabid Republican candidate campaigning. MAGAers would probably stop drinking water in solidarity and we’d get to really test out that “I could shoot someone on fifth avenue” theory, but with biting on campaign stops.
It would be a great opportunity for someone to sell a "Bite Me Trump" shirt. Supporters would wear it for its litteral meaning and opponent would wear it for the sarcastic meaning.
Also, pirates who like teethy BJs would wear it so people know what they're into.
Republicans would go out and get rabies in solidarity. They'd say it wasn't dangerous. It'd fuck up medical stats so hard.
I would be soooo triggered if they all gave each other rabies! We must passionately and logically talk them out of it, you guys!
I'm just picturing the morons lining up to be bitten by him. That would be such an ironic twist of history.
I want to see this variation of a zombie movie.
Patient zero is a prominent politician.
His handlers continue to puppet him, because they already spent so much on his campaign.
Followers literally line up to be bitten and infected.
If you had made this ten years ago, everybody would have said it's totally unrealistic. But now it's just slightly exaggerated.
That would make a great black comedy.
"Real men have rabbies"
"It's time we elected a rabid President"
On the bright side, it would be a problem that would eventually fix itself.
Rabies is a hoax, just a mild flu, and also a bioweapon personally engineered by Dr. Fauci to force a global reset of the economy. (But giving trillions to corporates that just received three years of steep tax cuts is not bad because reasons.)
This is way too real
And then someone gets that and bird flu at the same time and we end up with airborne rabies because that’s how it works now.
Haha we’re gonna get to see him try to drink a water bottle in an even more weird way
Travis, get your gun!
