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!

Fuck, they are going ahead and normalizing this. The coup continues to consolidate its grip.
This is death by strangulation
Yeah, geez, it’s wild what happens when everyone just decides to allow it
If you’ve wondered why everything looks like a coup since he got in, perhaps it is because it is one.

Edit: the upvote/downvote ratio on a comment like this shows how rapidly Lemmy is turning into Reddit. Nobody cares about the data, if you remotely sound like defending the GOP down the chute you go.
It’s your loss America. I’ll sleep fine as long as we don’t have electronic voting systems here.
You don’t have to read all those documents. You can just go read project 2025 mandate. Its only 900+ pages 
That YouTube clip, hell he all but admits that he rigged the election.
I feel sick watching it. As others have said, because of J6 and past accusations of fraud from the other side, it will be hard to discuss this with a lot of people without sounding insane.
It’s so much more sinister than this. To understand he is not senile and going to bed and waking up every day knowing this and having this on his consciousness.

I don't think he has a conscious
It's interesting that you post a message like that when yours is the majority position on Lemmy and comes up regularly. Any time I post conflicting data on the election, I'm down voted at about a 40/60 ratio up/down. Meanwhile politically I'm somewhere between Lenin and Bernie.
No I accidentally included that edit from my previous comment in another post which experienced that.
The voting behaviour is very strange. To my autistic head black on white data indicating the “leader of the free world” may have have taken control over the largest nuclear arsenal of the world seems pretty unequivocally the most important message of our times, but people on social media just go
_But the way you’re saying it is not nice, so until you learn to be kind, I think the best path forward for humanity is to downvote so less people see that random information you’re posting. (Which I didn’t bother to read frankly, because did I mention your tone was off) _
I’m beginning to understand why the human race is really a race to the bottom.
Are you whining? Down vote.
Lol I mindlessly copy pasted my edit from the previous post, this should be a fun upvote downvote battle to watch. At least these votes are counted correctly and one time per user.
In this post they are downvoting correctly thankfully. I admit I have changed my ways in the last 24 hours.
