Rules:

The mods are fallible; if you've been banned or had a post/comment removed, please appeal.

Off-topic posts will be removed. If you don't know what "Leopards ate my Face" is, try reading this post.

If the reason your post meets Rule 1 isn't in the source, you must add a source in the post body (not the comments) to explain this. If the reason is in the source but is tedious to find (e.g. in a lengthy video), you must add an explanation for where it is.

Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. (If you're only using an excerpt from an article that's otherwise not about LAMF, you can use the quote in the title.) Other types of posts should have a title which accurately, relatively neutrally describes their contents.

For accessibility reasons, an image of text must either have alt text or a transcription in the post body.

Reposts within 1 year or the Top 100 of all time are subject to removal. Within moderator discretion, this doesn't just include reposts of the exact same media but also includes e.g. a secondary source telling basically the exact same story as another that was already posted.

This is not exclusively a US politics community. You're encouraged to post stories about anyone from any place in the world at any point in history as long as you meet the other rules.

All Lemmy.World Terms of Service apply.

He openly admits that he doesn't actually know anything about the people he's voting for, and just votes for anyone who represents the republican party. He doesn't even know if he actually voted for Trump or not he just "suspects" that he probably did. This probably means he also doesn't bother to actually pay any attention to any of the policies of the republican party.

He just coasted through life without paying any attention or ever engaging in his brain. He's the reason that manufacturers had to start putting "don't drink bleach" warnings on bleach.

I don't think he read the warnings

Anyone who isn't even sure who they voted for for president just 15 months ago should not be holding any political office...

Actually if he did vote for president, he did so illegally.

I don't know, a lot of people in the US act exactly like him. I feel like you should be quizzed at the polling station with very basic questions about a politician's publicly announced policies. You know stuff that you would be able to find out with 30 seconds of research on Google. Nothing too taxing.

If you can't name at least one policy announcement you should be kicked out.
