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!

Oh people like him live the saddest lives imaginable. I personally know a narcissist nwith psychopathic tendencies and he actually acts a lot like trump, the midnight rants on how the world has wronged him, the weird "I cannot name a single person without immediately adding some judgement to it" like "Tom who is the greatest architect ever" and "Susan, that bitch"
He loves spending time and money on making others miserable, family included. Everything is a transaction, the guy knows no love, and gets none.
He controls his kids with money, sort of, but since the kids loathe him and can't wait to be independent and away from him, he'll lose them soon anyways. He always claims he is loved by hundreds even though nobody can stand being around him. His friends are bought as in these are people that are around whom because he pays them.
He has a clothes guy that sells him overpriced clothes, and he calls the guy a friend. The guy's literally around him only because he continuesly buys new clothes, multiple times per week
Nobody really knows how much money he has, he always claims everything is too expensive, and he constantly reminds everyone including his children on how much money he's spending on everyone and it's literally also the only one thing he has to give, the only thing he's good for: money. That is also what he'll be reminded for: money.
The life is legit sad and I'd feel bad for him if he wasnt such a giant asshole all the time to everyone. Fuck this asshole
Damn. I'd rather be broke and have friends than live like that for an hour.
oh gosh, now i'm wondering how my friends think of me. like, i'm unabashedly weird and enjoy it, but i have a little 3-second happy memory attached to people i care about in my brain kind of like a hype man, so if i'm telling a story and introduce a new character i can really quickly tell them who they are in three seconds. unfortunately my wife is "injustive to abbreviate" so she has to deal with that. fortunately she's there, so my friends don't have to deal with that in my storytelling. i'm probably "good in small doses" to them.
If you’re worried about what your friends think of you, then you are probably just fine.
Trump is sad and alone but he’s pretty sure it’s everyone else’s fault. Same with the above commenters friend .
If you took a second to consider you might be doing something wrong you are probably an alright person to hang around.
