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!

"We have declining inflation, except the president’s putting on inflationary tariffs.

We have incredibly low unemployment, except where it’s caused by the Trump administration.

We have a market that was doing extremely well last year, until the Trump Administration sowed the level of uncertainty that I can’t recall any time since — Are you ready, Ski Daddy? — Jimmy Carter."

Can we not have these click baity titles? Just tell me what he said

He called him “Jimmy Carter” and thinks Trump is “one man standing in the way of a great economy.”

Then I assume he hit some buttons that play bear and fart sounds.

That Last Week Tonight episode is such a gem.

Jim Cramer is fucking stupid and it really doesn't matter what he says, even when he randomly says a true thing

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It matters only insofar as Kramer is exactly the kind of person who MAGA thinks is really smart.

His opinion shouldn't matter to anyone with two braincells to rub together, but a lot of people don't meet that criteria and do care a lot about what he says.

It's an important temperature check for how things are going in MAGA land.

They are not watching him on CNBC...

It's Karen esque suburban voters that watch him, the people who legitimately couldn't think of a "better" candidate than Hillary, Biden, or Harris.

They are not maga, they're Republicans who don't like the name and have spent 30 years trying to make Dems into Reagan era Republicans
