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!

Even cave troll MTG doesn't like him
It's been surreal to hear her speak at length and agree with almost everything she's saying.
Only because Diaper Don wouldn't let her run for Senate. She's just lashing out because she's butthurt
I don't care why. Doesn't matter to the infighting.
Good! You can't trust him, or republicans!
"Give us what we want now and you'll get what you want later, maybe" is exactly the kind of illusory compromise the democrats usually fall for - are they actually finally learning?
Fool me once shame on you. Fool me 100 times... We won't get fooled again
Democratic support for a potential deal to reopen the government has crumbled because of deep mistrust among Senate Democrats over whether they can trust Trump to act in good faith to extend health insurance subsidies or to stop firing federal workers.
The answer to that question is always NO. It's always Cash Up Front with Trump. You never trust him to keep his word. Ever.
Unless you've got his balls in a tiny little pouch locked in a safe, he's not to be trusted.
Why get a guarantee to work later? Work fucking now and get it done now you numbskulls.
What more do you sick leftists want? They have ideas of a plan!! 1! How can you not trust somebody like that????
It will be ready in 2 weeks
THIS might be the biggest astroturf I've ever seen. The point, as always, is that every accusation is a confession. This one is behind a thin veil where they pretend to be left, but their actual intent is to water down the "Concepts of a plan" quote, which was from a Republican in a debate on the topic of healthcare. Was it Trump?
I meant to make fun of the MAGA idiots, just to be clear. I had hoped the amount of excessive question marks is indicator enough for my sarcasm. But I can understand that sadly there people as deluded as my joke on the internet, so it's all good.
Lol this dork
Bruh chill
Power that is not excercised is not power. And something similar can be said about leverage.
When you've got a winning hand, don't fucking fold.
Nope. The government reopens AFTER demands are met, not before.
It's good to see that the opposition party is finally doing some opposing and clearly recognizing that the other side isn't acting in good faith and will never act in good faith. The government shut down harms everyone, but it is tough medicine that is necessary to avoid the constant steamrollering that has happened again and again in the past. Sometimes you have to stand up and fight, even if it means taking a few bruises.
If you can't sign a deal now why the fuck would we trust you to sign it later without our leverage
Republicans don’t negotiate, they lie. Never negotiate with liars.
They should not give 3 years guaranteed funding to military construction and the legislative branch with the current unapologetic criminals currently in office, and I daresay ever again.
"We don't negotiate with terrorists."
unless you're Raegan, then you sell cocaine to give terrorists whatever missiles they ask for.
What is this? Establishment Dems exercising basic pattern recognition for once?
Fine! Trump will PINKY SWEAR next Time so Schumer and Jeffreies can END THE REPUBLICAN SHUTDOWN!
You know he won't. Bad Faith is his middle-fucking name.
Act on good faith... The fuck! Even if it's in writing he ignores it. Why would anyone negotiate with him or his party while they are in power. They showed their hand.
Dude needs to be permanently removed from the board.
The board?
The Board, for the game of Life.
Let this be a a lesson to Republicans! No-one fools a Democrat 3456 times! 3455 is the number they'll finally learn to not fall for your bullshit!
No, it falters over the Republicans' incompetence and lack of a coherent approach to governing.
Only an idiot would trust Trump to do anything but be the lying, corrupt, treasonous piece of shit that he always is.
He won't.
Such a shit sandwich. Cannot trust Repugnants, nor Trump to do anything they "agree" upon.
