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!

Gotta love these aging dickheads who just used POCs as props all the fucking time. This asshat staged these exact same situations for years and put them up as PR bullshit.
Also, did they think this was going to look candid or something? Why was there one camera at Cuomo's car, then another in the other dudes car? Just two people happened to be filming this TOTALLY NATURAL everyday thing with multiple positions and cameras?
Fucking morons.
That's what depresses me most regarding stunts like this: it does work on a portion of the populace.
Come on, at this point he's just there to get donations, pay his friends some money for shitty ads and pocket the rest. I would say that the morons are the billionaires still giving him money but for they it's pocket change and they'll will get political favors from the party one way or another.
They're spending more money on campaigns than what they'd ever have to pay extra in tax, they're not even rational at this point any more.
It's about power, it's always been about power. We had systems in place to limit this shit but our politicians are corrupt.
And who the fuck actually records video in landscape mode?! Like in reality it’s always portrait mode.
edit I’m not saying portrait is better. I hardly ever use my phones cameras. But most videos on the internet from the past 10 years are portrait mode.
Almost always landscape here. I MAKE THE EFFORT, DAMMIT 🤣
I dunno, people who understand how to film and take photographs?
Honestly I fully disagree on the 10 year mark. I'd say about 6 years ago the normal response to a portrait mode video was "what the heck is wrong with you, turn your phone sideways, only complete newbies shoot vertical video", our monitors are landscape, our TVs are landscape.
However, then covid hit, and tiktok became the popular video platform... and everything reversed.
