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!

And Trump is going to manage to ruin it to benefit a few old rich monsters.
At this point I'm done blaming Trump.
This is on idiot Americans.
Too many of us are braindead stupid. Trump can live or die, won't change that.
Our politics and politicians are a reflection of the people of this nation's desires and level of intelligence.
Yes and no. There's going to be thousands of agriculture etc jobs opening up under him. The problem is there won't be willing or qualified applicants.
Which will at once increase demand for labor. Thus increasing costs for oligarchs. But at the same time throw a monkey wrench into basic supply chains. Causing shortages and crises. He's literally going to hurt everyone. But we all knew that.
The oligarch are just going to raise prices. The farmer is going to get boned. I expect that to take a bit though, he's vengeful he's going to start with blue states and cities first. So life gets worse for Dem areas first then Dems can be blamed for it as the effects spread to Red areas. Not any different from the Covid response.
That will absolutely be their first course of action. The problem with it being. They are near pricing themselves out of the market on many things as is. Quite a lot of inflation has been because of Market control and collusion. Not actual increase in costs. Consumers are struggling currently. Pushing at any harder very likely could cause collapse. Not that many oligarchs won't. They're that out of touch.
You mean like what's been happening?
