Nov 2023 Mod notice:
There may be other, more specific, threads about some aspects of US politics, but this one tends to act as a hub for all sorts of related news and information, so it's usually one of the busiest OTC threads.
If you're new to OTC, it's worth reading the Introduction to On-Topic Conversations
and the On-Topic Conversations debate guidelines
before posting here.
Rumor-based, fear-mongering and/or inflammatory statements that damage the quality of the thread will be thumped. Off-topic posts will also be thumped. Repeat offenders may be suspended.
If time spent moderating this thread remains a distraction from moderation of the wiki itself, the thread will need to be locked. We want to avoid that, so please follow the forum rules
when posting here.
In line with the general forum rules, 'gravedancing' is prohibited here. If you're celebrating someone's death or hoping that they die, your post will get thumped. This rule applies regardless of what the person you're discussing has said or done.

In other news, a nice big thanks to all the geniuses who decided to turn the clock back to 1933. Here's hoping American democracy can survive four-to-eight years of a man who I was I was joking more about when I call him Mango Mussolini.

@Angelus: I see that someone's taken to confirming that "Iron [Literally Any Word Here]" works for a metal band name.

Incidentally, the upside-down flag is the logo for House of Cards, which is arguably better than this situation.
This is a signature.I think that's just hypocrisy, not irony.
But then I failed English 2 twice, so what do I know.
