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!

Tbh the Arabs in Dearborn actually voted that way and let everyone know they did
I wouldn't have been surprised if he won a few swing states, especially in states like this, with a big Muslim population who was angry at Biden for not condemning Israel Gaza Genocide. But all of them? Impossible.
So Trump lied to them, and the believed him, so they got Trump, and he proceeded to help Israel finish destroying Gaza, and has now unleashed WW3 in the Middle East. And whether they voted for him or not, he'll eventually send them all the Camps.
The problem is nobody actually cares. A small handful of community leaders so an opportunity to make some money, (maybe even money that could be used to help the people of the community), so they make a deal with trump to help him win.
Yes, he also had musk and ellison and thiel hacking election computers as well.
But every single time someone shakes hands with trump, they sre shaking hands with the most famous child rapist in the world and they dont care because theyre hoping to make some money.
Every world leader needs to call him out, Japanese PM should have said obviously we can't work with this racist child abuser, as should have Mark Carney and Keir Starmer and Merz and Macron et al et al et al
Like idk what we're doing as homo sapiens
