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!

If he actually thinks Nazism is repulsive he can live stream the removal.
I mean he did get it covered, so that’s something at least. Laser removal isn’t quick at all. Could have gotten it removed ages ago, but my guess is he didn’t because it’s a process and he probably didn’t think he’d be running for office.
Fuck it though, you’re right. Let’s just go with Susan again. Trump has learned his lesson for sure by now.
A: he already had it covered and has shown it...
B: Removal isn't a one time thing? Like, it takes months. It's a whole medical procedure. Doing the consultation, creating a treatment plan, several appointments, and time to heal between. Do you think tattoo removal is some simple outpatient thing you can just do as a walk in?
Did you know that not all tattoos can be removed? Yea, that's part of the consultation. Because some tattoo inks aren't reactive to the laser. Some skin tones don't work. And it hurts, a lot, the whole time. Because it's literally burning it off. Pending where on the body that is, it may not be feasible.
Which is why MOST tattoo "removals" are done as coverups. Because getting a tattoo is nowhere near the same thing, in time, in pain, etc as removing a tattoo.
I swear, way too many people on Lemmy think tattoo removal is some magic device.
Oh no removing his Nazi symbol is hard :(
It's a good thing he SAYS all the right things!
Not just hard. In so many cases, it's impossible. That's why they get covered up. What are you not understanding about this? Are you dense or just being intentionally obtuse?
