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!

This Danish dude needs to wake up.
Trump will absolutely move forward with the "Dumbest War".
Bitch, it's coming!
If we name it after him will he stop starting more? Or would that just encourage him?
"A superlative you say?"
idk i feel like the emu war was dumber
Humanity has always been great at senseless violence
The link says it was over a fort having been seized. Though I'm not pro war, that seems like a pretty standard reason to go to war. It says it was not actually over a bucket.
Well he is a raging dotard, as was made clear in his first term.
And American employers won't be able to get by at the holidays by putting out a can of those cheap ass cookies.
There were wars for less. As I understood the discourse, were talking about lots of oil that will be available there in the future - or will not, who knows.
Europe needs better safety measures than considering wars unlikely it stupid... I still can't comprehend why the hell did Putin need to attack Ukraine, yet here we are 12/4 years after.
With Ukraine, Russia had recent easy incursions to Georgia and getting Crimea. So they legitimately thought that they'd just roll tanks to Kyiv in a few days and get more strongly worded letters and enjoy the loot. So he attacked Ukraine because he thought it would be easy. It's got valuable resources, and Putin has this goal of restoring Soviet borders.
Easy enough to understand why, at the time, he did it. If there's one silver lining I wonder if China became more reluctant about Taiwan seeing how thins can go.

Naw. Getting the US involved in several different conflicts is a great way to sideline the US when it comes to Taiwan. It benefits China and Russia if the US is distracted, spread thin, and fighting with allies.
The silver lining is it out would cause the collapse of the US economy making it easier for other countries to fill the void.
"The Dumbest In History" is Trump's only claim to fame.
Trump..Hold my beer!
