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.

So, how will you be reevaluating your beliefs if you're proven wrong in two weeks?
I hope I can, but fascists don't usually go willingly.
Yeah it’s something you desperately want to be wrong about, isn’t it?
I was the same calling Trump getting elected again.
I think you’re right, legit or not. The Democrats should have numbers but the ballot counting system is definitely compromised now.
Ok, so if you're wrong about Republicans winning in a landslide, how will that affect your thinking?
I'm not saying they will actually win in a landslide. In case I have to spell it out, I'm saying they will tell us that, and we'll see if the American people will accept it. All of Trump's victories have been fake. The guy has nowhere near the support that is projected on the Internet. That's why he can never draw a real crowd. The silent majority is a made up thing to cover their treasonous election interference over the last decade by colluding with an adversary and billionaires to prop up oligarchy in the US.
