    Oh, FFS, I am so tired of the fake outrage over this. Who gives a fuck?

    Donnie called this country a garbage can and threatens fascism…meanwhile, the Enlightened Centrists ™ and the “liberal media” go into a fetal position over Biden saying something frank about those that would support fascism and spend days clutching their pearls.

      I thought liberals took the high road, or was that bullshit Michelle Obama said?

    If anyone’s wondering, this is from the AP Article sourced for this one:

    The transcript released by the White House press office, however, rendered the quote with an apostrophe, reading “supporter’s” rather than “supporters,”

    I wish he’d just owned it at this point. Trump supporters are garbage. They’re morally corrupt racist cultists voting for a charlatan.

    They defend Trump calling huge swaths of people stupid rapist murdering criminals and killing his political opponents outright

    Garbage is a much lighter term than I’d use these days.

      No, they’re valued constituents that we desperately need to jettison all our principles to represent.

          The alternative involves treating the left like valued constituents with agency instead of hostages.

    Did the stenographer somehow hear a lack of apostrophe? If he were referring to the supporters themselves, the correct phrase would be “are his supporters”, therefore I’d default to interpreting what he said as "is his supporters’ ", ie “is that coming from his supporters”.

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!
