When listening to their debate, I didn't know it was about the primaries and I really thought that Haley Stevens was an anti-Trump Republican or something. It is actually crazy that people call the Democrats 'left'.

How many times can MAGA meltdown?

[-] AFaithfulNihilist@lemmy.world 4 points 11 hours ago

Don't you remember all those times they were threatening to go nuclear? A nuclear meltdown lasts ages and continues throwing off toxic byproducts the whole time.

I think we're underestimating the importance of encasing mega in cement and burying it under a mountain as quickly as possible.

"Melts down"

Yup, not reading that...

I assume that at most we're talking about a couple of asshats posting their frustration on Twitter.

Just another day in /c/politics...

MAGA acolytes were having a meltdown at the prospect of an El-Sayed victory - particularly after he unapologetically used the phrase “inshallah”—“God willing” in Arabic

Lol fucking Republican morons

They should stop speaking Hebrew when they say Amen! Speak Murican when you praise God goddamnit!

Just thinking that some of my federal tax is going to Israel, which is then funneled back through AIPAC to buy attack ads, political operatives, and media time for both Republicans and Democrats to defeat him. If it's not too late, they will finance an independent candidate to siphon votes from him? And I'm paying for it all! Fun huh?

I adjusted my W-4 to send as little money as is legally possible to the government until tax season. They can get the rest then. Until that point I'll just accrue the interest on what was being withheld and they can find other short term funding for proxy wars.

It’s almost like how a tumor hijacks your blood supply in order to get better at killing you.

You think that's bad? Angioleviticus is worse.

For 5 seconds I almost looked that up! Now I feel dumb. Well done

Awwww, just making a terrible joke, not trying to fool you. <3

Of course it's Daily Beast. I refuse to read or upvote that shit.

Now, if a good source was presented, that'd be fine. Daily Beast is useless.

Garbage site that seems to spin everything as the end of the world for the GOP. according to DB the GOP have fallen apart a hundred times in the past week every week for the past year and are in total panic constantly. Doesn't seem to be the case.

The masses are certainly losing faith in the gop platform aside from the diehards, but the core people, about 40% give or take, don't seem to ever really budge.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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!
