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.

To think that in the interest of electoral fairness, we let this guy be president again instead of putting him in a prison for life where he absolutely belongs.
To any democratic strategists out there who might be reading my post, if you want my attention, start getting your candidate to talk loudly and often about how they will punish Trump and every single member of his administration on Day 1. Lifetime prison sentences for Epstein related coverups. Hangings for treason, war crimes and crimes against humanity. Lengthy prison sentences for fraudsters who are insider trading and former DOGE staffers. Restitution to be paid back to the American taxpayers for the theft and embezzlement of tax dollars. Anything less that that is a mockery of justice.
100%. All these people saying we can't win on MAGA Punishment can go to prison, too. I have my pet issues too like Universal Health Care and Campaign Finance Reform, but I recognize that we're NEVER get this country back on track and reach a point where we can address those issues in good faith, until we deal with MAGA as the genuine National Security Threat that they truly are.
My candidate is the one that says, "The moment I'm sworn in, I will issue arrest warrants for every MAGA leader, and send them to Guantanamo Bay for extensive interrogation." We will audit every account they controlled, personal, business, and governmental, and charge them for every single count they violated, and confiscate their entire fortunes and assets.
That's the candidate that I will support. Any that blurt shit like "We need to come together," is automatically disqualified in my eyes.
If we want to redeem America in the eyes of its citizens, the world, and history, then MAGA cannot go unpunished.
Hang that fucker on the white house lawn
Lol but Democratic strategists don't want to win, they just want to have plausible deniability against the claim that they're trying not to win. Their real goal is to figure out how to convince people they're incompetent. Your strategy would make people actually vote for them, after which they'd be expected to follow through on those policies which would hurt their donors. Even if they did do that they'd have to go back to playing incompetent while in power to make sure it didn't happen
