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!

All media is complicit in sane-washing this fucked up narcissist pedophile. They are all protecting him.

[–] MJKee9@lemmy.world 2 points 26 minutes ago

More specifically, the billionaires controlling the "media." While a bare few legitimate media outlets still exist, the "media' the majority of the world sees is essentially edited propaganda for the billionaire class.

After his lawsuits for editing, I feel the best course is to run everything he says without editing.

[–] Tolookah@discuss.tchncs.de 12 points 2 hours ago

I feel someone with money should sue 60 minutes for editing. There's precedent for it and all...

[–] homes@piefed.world 34 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Then it would be 60 Hours, not 60 Minutes

[–] Deconceptualist@leminal.space 3 points 35 minutes ago

I'm pretty sure he falls into a geriatric nap every 180 mins. Yknow, in between the angry rants and scarfing McDonald's and shitting his diaper.

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 10 points 4 hours ago

With some sort of chyron streaming across the bottom of numbered generated using the time code as a seed.

[–] kmartburrito@lemmy.world 30 points 4 hours ago

Let him make himself look like an idiot! FFS. At this point if you're sanitizing it, you're part of the problem

"There’s so many things that I’m against. I don’t think they’re controversial. I think the other side is controversial, but I do a lot of things and I get things done.”

The man doesn't understand words.

[–] JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 hour ago

Doesn't need to. He loves the poorly-educated.

[–] panda_abyss@lemmy.ca 13 points 3 hours ago

He’s like the futurama 80s business guy

I’m not BLANK, the other side is BLANK.

[–] Typhoon@lemmy.ca 15 points 4 hours ago

He doesn't understand not raping kids too.

[–] Crystalbound@lemmy.world 13 points 4 hours ago

Or percentages. Any normal human behavior, really.

The truth burns him like holy water to a demon.

[–] wuffah@lemmy.world 19 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

The NOT INCLUDED parts of the transcript are what got cut.

[–] JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 hour ago

Oh man I was unaware of the 60 minutes interview or the unedited cut...and posted a trump-esque rant about the "assassination attempt" earlier this morning that hit on some of the same exact points as his.

That's fucking great.

He thinks we should be grateful that his ballroom plan wasn't a hotel.

And this has bulletproof glass. This has you know, this is the highest level of security. Also, very importantly, I could have built suites on top. I could have done a lot of things. I said, no, no, we have this has to be pure. This has to be where people stay off property and they go through one very impactful, very strong entrance, one very powerful entrance. There’s no games with this.

And he refers to the ballroom that isn't there in the past tense, already done.

[–] Archangel1313@lemmy.ca 8 points 3 hours ago

Wait. So the crazy shit they did show, was just the stuff they kept in?

[–] Brkdncr@lemmy.world 25 points 5 hours ago

Release the Snyder cut

[–] Eternal192@anarchist.nexus 6 points 3 hours ago

If they edited out his rants then they might as well not air the interview because without the rants there's nothing left.
