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!"

Outside of the typical stuff I dont remember, during the russia collusion trump thing, he kept going on the news talking about how he had seen the evidence, and it was damning, and trump was guilty. When we learn later it was a completely made up story and he had seen no evidence because there wasnt any. I dont mind someone that disagrees with me, I just hate liars.
Are you talking about the Russia collusion thing where his campaign staff were found guilty of a bunch of felonies and he wasn't charged because a "president cannot be charged with a federal crime while he is in office"? Where Mueller basically said: I'm not allowed to say he's guilty, but I can tell you he's not not guilty. That one?
Yes, but can you tell me the information Adam had seen that trump was guilty?
I doubt such information would be public, but given that Trump publically invited Russia to interfere in the campaign, I'd certainly consider it plausible he also did so in private. Seems like a heck of stretch to go from that to "liar" and "corrupt".
There was the durham report that explained exactly what happened, and there was literally nothing connecting trump to russia. So Adam claimed there was to get political gain and make trump look guilty. How can you not be angry with a proved liar politician.
LOL. He's been known to be connected with Russia since the fucking '80s, my guy.
How can YOU not be angry with a proved liar, rapist and traitor politician.
I dont like Biden either.
Sure, keep living in your own world while your friend Trump is processed and sentenced for for every possible crime.
I am not a trump voter, but I am also not in favor of election tampering.
lol
Is there any politician that you like? Lying is so rampant that i imagine it's difficult to find anyone you like. Who can you even vote for?
Of the Rs and Ds, I would say I like the libertarians that lie and claim to be Rs. The ones I remember the best are the Pauls, Thomas Massie, and Justin Amash. I think Thomas Massie is probably the best. But yeah, there are not any good ones to vote for and we are fucked. We cant even get one of the two teams to agreed that the federal resevere is the biggest thing that harms people and they are not even aware of it.
That's not lying, they're just Rs under a different name.
Anti-abortion? How libertarian. Against DC representation in our government? How libertarian.
Dudes a cuckservative hardcore and pretending otherwise is a joke.
The Russian stooge that's the literal only person who voted against supporting Ukraine in 2019, as well as hong kong that same year? The climate change denier?
That dude sounds like a real piece of shit, actually.
So what we get from this is that your political opinions are worth less than nothing as you clearly support regressive pricks. Work on being less shitty in future
Abortion is a split issue amoung libertarians. The Pauls are also libertarian and anti-abortion. And you have no clue about Massie, literally you dont understand one thing about him.
Interesting, because pro-choicr is the correct libertarian position (freedom of personal choice above all is kinda their thing)
Lol, good defense of your shitty ideals. Can't defend a piece of shit so you don't even try
Literally everything you said about Massie was false. I think you did a quick google search and then vomited whatever propaganda you read. Bye
Literally easily verifiable fact about his platform that takes 10s to confirm
Don't like that it's so easy to point out the people you like are garbage? Support less garbage people.
Pretending they're not trash is pathetic
It was enjoyable watching you collapse on your non-issues
