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 US politics and contain quality and original content. Social Media adjacent hosts like Substack are allowed, but ONLY if they tie back to a company/subsidiary. No personal or friend group blogs and no self-promotion. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and re-hosted 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 other users of being bots or paid actors.
  3. No memes, trolling, misinformation, or low-effort posts/comments (including reposts). If you see posts like this that anger you, do not engage. Report, block, and live a happier life than they do. Any slap-fight is subject to comment removals. Fights full of rule violations will result in temporary bans to cool off.
  4. No manipulating votes via bots or alt accounts; this will result in permanent bans. 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 an account ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be permanently banned.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules and use critical thinking when reading, posting, and commenting. Users that repeatedly have 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. The reason(s) behind moderator action(s) are publicly available through the Modlog.

That's all the rules!

It would be so funny if he was doing one of his bullshit press conferences where he gets pathetic sycophants to bow and scrape before the king, when they gradually realize that he's been sitting there dead for about ten minutes while they pretended like nothing was wrong for fear of making him look weak.

Lol, that would be really funny

"Death of Stalin" vibes, where Stalin lay dying on the floor in his room for hours because nobody wanted to risk disturbing him.

I want to see the Ianucci film "Death of Trump." Who else could do justice to this murderous farce?

I'd say they probably have him hooked up to some type of monitor but I don't think they do. He would throw the biggest hissy fit since he would see it as a slight against him.

I want during his bullshit airplane pus conferences for him to shit his pants so loudly they hear it at the bottom of the plane, he sees them notice, in embarrassment he tries to flee through the door but yes he trips and tumbles on Vance down the stairs into a visibly messy splort (not blood, or at least mostly not blood and the blood is not from the tumble) at the bottom. He tries to pick himself up from the splort but there's too much feces and JD Vance on the ground for his lifts to get proper purchase so he keeps falling over and over like sideshow Bob and a rake and this.

After seven or eight attempts he just gives up and dies.
