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!

Every minute he's sleeping is a minute he's not actively fucking us at least I guess
I don’t think he’s the real problem. It’s everyone around him and he just signs off on anything they put in front of him.
Human Auto Pen.
Yup. The whole “every accusation is a confession” thing will hold true for the autopen stuff too. I can guarantee he’s basically getting Weekend At Bernie’s’ed through the white house by all of his sycophants while he dozes. And that means they’re able to pass whatever the hell they want while he sleeps. And the scary part is that a lot of them will be a lot more competent and slimy than Trump is.
Stephen Miller is my #1 enemy. He keeps ignoring my requests for a fist fight over who gets to stay here and who gets to move to Venezuela.

Have you noticed how this only started once their mascot was put in office? Mascots are important. Disney is never going to kill Mickey.
How do you figure? Sleeping on a problem can be a great way to solve it.
Don't worry he has a whole team to do that on his behalf. Every minute Trump is sleeping is a minute where Steven Miller gets to make more decisions with no one to tell him no.
Define "actively" - like any other leader, he mainly gets others to do stuff (while he sleeps).
