Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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!

he won't be able to stfu about this

[–] Nougat@fedia.io 40 points 1 month ago (1 children)

This accomplishes the exact same thing that calling out his crowd sizes did: make him lose his shit. They know it. He knows it. We all know it.

It's still going to work.

[–] Iheartcheese@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I hope he says the immigrants have Kaiju next.

[–] Nougat@fedia.io 3 points 1 month ago (3 children)

I had to look that up and I still don't know what you mean.

[–] Pronell@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago

It's the next big thing.

[–] Iheartcheese@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

It's the only thing that could turn the giant wheel he talked about in California

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 28 points 1 month ago (2 children)

We know very well that the guy has completely lost it. No psychiatric evaluation necessary. It's on display every day.

[–] Raiderkev@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

THEY ARE EATING THE DOGS

Seems totally normal to me

[–] quicklime@lemm.ee 3 points 1 month ago

and that's just the psych side. It's blatantly obvious that in terms of physical health he has one and a half feet in the grave.

[–] Saljid@lemmy.world 24 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (2 children)

He'll release it with his tax statements. Surely.

[–] elvith@feddit.org 15 points 1 month ago

He's got concepts of good health vitals

[–] Valmond@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

And the plan(s) for peace.

[–] llamatron@lemmy.world 15 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

The only things keeping this treasonous puppet going is his impotent rage and Putin's hand up his fetid arse

[–] Texas_Hangover@lemy.lol -1 points 1 month ago

That's a weird thing to say.

[–] AmidFuror@fedia.io 13 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I'm sure Ronny Jackson will lie to the public on Trump's behalf within a few days.

[–] Asafum@feddit.nl 5 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I think he already released a statement saying Trump is perfect and has lost weight but didn't give any specifics, just a general "all vitals are great"

Trump is running with that being an official release of a medical evaluation :/

[–] DarkDarkHouse@lemmy.sdf.org 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

"I took a cognitive test, and I aced it. Doc Ronny — Doc Ronny Johnson," Trump said, confusing the name of his White House physician, Dr. Ronny Jackson, now a member of the House. "Does everyone know Ronny Johnson, congressman from Texas? He was the White House doctor.”

[–] Asafum@feddit.nl 2 points 1 month ago

JFC I didn't even realize he went to Congress now...

There MUST be a grift there. I guess they've figured out how to siphon campaign donations without getting in trouble or something or some billionaire jackass offered him a lucrative position after he "serves his time" doing their bidding in Congress...

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

He could probably knock five pounds off just by changing his diaper. Another couple of pounds by taking a shit like a normal person.

[–] Drusas@fedia.io 7 points 1 month ago

The man lives on Big Macs and fried chicken--I think we know.

[–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago

Yes we do. He's got dementia, and he's obese.

[–] nightwatch_admin@feddit.nl 1 points 1 month ago

Diaper Donnie was raised by a necromancer, no wonder he has no vitals.
