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!

Elect a racist, expect racism.
Don't worry, one of you will get a token position in a department with "urban" in the title. Fucking dipshits.
Ben Carson, the stupidest brain surgeon, can tell you.
Herman Cain would likely be up next. If appointed four-day, he would roll in his grave... that he occupies after dying from COVID before posthumously tweeting that COVID was fake. Fucking dipshit.
HUD. Its always "Put the Brown person in charge of the housing projects... They know those people."
Did any of them try using a sizable donation?
Why are they surprised? Trump is racist af
Because they, like any minority that votes Republican, too often think that they're "one of the good ones" that will be spared the racism.
It's anecdotal for sure but the most racist (against blacks), biggest Trump supporter I've ever known was a ~70 year old black man who would routinely call young black men n***ers in public when they did something he didn't approve of.
You know Uncle Ruckus?!
My former best friend (for a lot of reasons, is former) was a black man from Florida who confidently would say how all of Africa's problems are due to their own incompetence and that people who speak African American Vernacular English are lazy. Dude also celebrated Biden beating Bernie in the previous primary.
At the risk of sounding insensitive, I'd argue that the average Black American is generationally so far removed from the African continent that their knowledge of post-colonial african politics is about the same as the average white dude. They're not granted any special insight on account of their anscestors came from there.
Sadly this person has been around the world as lot as his hobby for 20+ years was to travel internationally once a month and domestically twice. He had an agreement with the hotel he worked at that he'd work any shift they wanted as long as they gave him any time off when he wanted it. Sadly, even being exposed to culture doesn't necessarily make you cultured.
I could have seen that in his first term, but if they expected to be seen and treated any other in the second they might get their expectations adjusted.
Believe it or not, these are not necessarily the same voters. A whole new generation of stupid just joined the ranks.
Or, maybe they'll be the Token Black Republican!
Knowing they're personally hated by their party, and the only reason they are tolerated is because their existence "refutes" the palpable and constant racisim of the GOP.
One day, if they hate their own race enough, they can grow up to be the greatest Uncle Tom in history aside from Clarence Thomas!
The guy who spent so little time around black people on the campaign trail that they were forced to use AI? That guy?
We are not a monolith!
gee big surprise!
He doesn't want them on his properties. Why would he want them in their cabinet? Take the hint, dipshits: You're volunteering to be a token for someone who hates you.
That does summarize the majority of their careers, though.
You mean as guests/customers right? I'm sure he has plenty mowing grass, cooking, cleaning ...
In other news: ABC news has begun reporting on the status of the drying paint on the wall
Black republican should be an oxymoron, but I guess they're just regular morons.
It's important to recall that anyone can be an idiot.
...but they're not a monolith !
Leopards. Face, even
Perhaps.... Eaten?
Let's not jump to conclusions. This could just be a playful nibble.
Perchance?

All those groups really didn't expect the leopard to eat their face.
Tough shit and WTF do you expect from a bunch of racist neo-Nazis?
You mean the guy who was so angry about a black President making a joke at his expense that he made his end-of-life goal to become the President just to get back at this guy because he couldn't handle that a black man could make a joke at his expense or hold a higher officer than him?
You get what you pay for.
It’s amazing what that press correspondents dinner joke has cost us.
Some days I wonder how much Obama regrets it.
Eh, donvict might have been planning something anyway since he was already king of the birthers at that point.
What were they expecting ?
To be acknowledged as "One of the good ones".
Whaaaaaat? The man who was supported by racists and literal Nazis is not appointing blacks to positions of power? I, for one, am shocked. Shocked I tell you!
The Uncle Toms got a permanent seat on the SCOTUS, thats more overrepresentation than they deserve.
Gotta be a special type dumbass.
We told you so.
Uncle Tom locked himself out of the cabin, again...
sitcom laugh track
Gee, I wonder why...?
We need a new emoji to not-so-subtly show shock and also convey ignorance to the assholes who voted for this because they're fucking easily led and stupid, apparently.
Trump isn't giving you ALL of what he promised after he got out of jail and ruined any semblance of accountant for the shit he's done and now you're shocked because you're fucking stupid? 🏴☠️
Something like that.
