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!

Let me break it down. They will WRECK the economy, democracy, women's rights, religious freedom, and anyone who stood against them. But you will have easy access to as many guns and ammo as you like.
I wouldn't bet on that gun part*...he wanted to take guns away in his first term through executive action. I doubt two assassination attempts will have mellowed him out in that.
"I like taking guns away early" Trump said. "Take the guns first, go through due process second."

They are going to keep the guns thing wide open as long as elections are a thing. Once they’ve gotten to a place where they’ve cemented their power in a way where voting doesn’t really matter anymore, they’re gonna take ‘em away right fucking quick.
Bingo. There are very few that understand this. Conservatives feel safe and liberals think guns will be a free for all. Both groups are morons.
As you said, if Trump gets in, they're taking the guns from all of us. Ironic that our gun rights are safer under a Harris administration.
Ultimately the republican establishment wants strict gun control, they just know it’s a wedge issue with a lot of their voters.
Kings hate the serfs being armed.
After Trumps assassination attempt, allowing you to buy as many guns and as much ammo is as you want is not a certainty.
By wrecking the economy, it makes it easier to buy up the property.
A win for the extremely rich.
Don't forget vaccines
Don't forget the climate. And that will have far greater long term effects to humanity than anything else.
Idk, 2 people tried to shoot him. I think he’s going to backpedal on that one.
That’s reek. Wreak is a verb meaning to cause a large amount of harm or damage. It’s also archaic.
I'm sure they meant "wreck the economy".
I mean, yeah. They'll turn it into shit.
Fixed the typo.
