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!

So that was the goal? To show them how harmless we are?
I'm still trying to make sense of what was accomplished if anything.
Amazon sold a lot of frog suits I guess.
Trump wants an excuse to call the protests violent so he can legitimate sending ICE and the national guard into blue cities and after his opponents. A group of clowns and a guy in a frog suit are not the violent extremist that justify the use of force. Plus they allow us to mock him, since his fragile ego is the only thing he cares about.
Pretty sure he cares about money and power far more than his ego, but good try.
Good thing he hasn't sent ICE and the national guard to blue cities.
There’s a difference between symbolic protesting and concrete protesting.
If you’re too stupid to “get it”, don’t blame me. Your ignorance is not, nor will it ever be, my responsibility.
Or, you could do what normal adult adults do when confronted with their own ignorance… Go look that shit up for yourself.
LMAO
Problem is u don't think it's going to work but I'd like to be wrong. And please don't post only 3.5% number and go read what those people actually say. And it was an observation not a rule.
So you can't name a single thing accomplished, and instead start insulting me while calling yourself wonderful. You sound like Trump.
Lmao
Only if you lied to yourself. But I imagine you do a lot of that already.
Just know that, when you finally kill yourself, I’ve blocked you. So nothing you say matters.
Lol
