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!

Worse, the guy may be demented and delusional; he may actually believe his has the money in cash.
The more I see him talk the more I think he has dementia; worse than biden by far. I'm amazed he gets a free pass on it.
I know, his mental state hasn't been very good at any point in his campaigning. I remember seeing a speech of his that interrupted some TV programming shortly after he became president and it was just mindless rambling. I have ADHD and I couldn't even follow it, it was so bad.
Yeah.
Dementia combined with a complete lack of inhibition results in a presence that is much more compelling to idiots compared to someone who periodically stumbles as they attempt to compensate for their cognitive decline.
Lack of inhibition can in fact be caused by dementia, as anyone that has worked at a nursing home knows. Don't think his handlers will let Trump strip on stage, but who knows.
It's a question of contrast; Biden has the bearing of a reasonable man when lucid whilst Trump is unhinged at the best of times.
When you are surrounded by brainwashed sycophants, welp this is what you get.
"I have the money somewhere, I just can't find it at the moment! It must have been in one of the boxes that the FBI stole in Mar-A-Lago!"
To be fair, if he could pay that, there wouldn't just be a bank account labelled "money for tish james" with a balance of $500m.
"Can I pay them?" in his case world be a chomped question and he'd need accountants to tell him the answer.
