Donald Trump’s administration is doing everything it can to project power and a sense of unstoppability in his first days as president. But the cracks are already starting to show.

    Trump looks pretty fucking weak to me, but I wouldn’t be surprised if he was actually weaker than my already low standard.

    Weak yes. But weak minded is the noticeable thing that I don’t see enough people talking about. I may be missing something. His sentence structure and repetition of the same adjectives, as well as the slowed speech show that something ain’t right. Why is this not pointed out more? Maybe I’m reading the wrong articles.

      Hey if the first 2 are bad enough maybe we can do something about the next ones. It’s the only hope I’ve got right now.

      Well, the people sitting it out apparently didn’t think it was that big a deal.

    I would fucking hope so, but if he’s as powerful as he and his party would like us to think he is, then may God help us all.

    Cruelty is a weak person’s desperate attempt at looking (not even being) strong.

    And neither one works.

    The nastier he becomes, the weaker he is.

    I’m surprised his tiny hands can hold up that heavy paper.

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 US politics and contain quality and original content. Social Media adjacent hosts like Substack are allowed, but ONLY if they tie back to a company/subsidiary. No personal or friend group blogs and no self-promotion. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and re-hosted 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 other users of being bots or paid actors.
  3. No memes, trolling, misinformation, or low-effort posts/comments (including reposts). If you see posts like this that anger you, do not engage. Report, block, and live a happier life than they do. Any slap-fight is subject to comment removals. Fights full of rule violations will result in temporary bans to cool off.
  4. No manipulating votes via bots or alt accounts; this will result in permanent bans. 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 an account ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be permanently banned.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules and use critical thinking when reading, posting, and commenting. Users that repeatedly have 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. The reason(s) behind moderator action(s) are publicly available through the Modlog.

That’s all the rules!
