Hey, lots of Political Topics coming up that's just turning into blame games, anger and bad vibes. I'm enacting a temporary rule: no new politic topics for one week as of now.

I recognize that there is a lot of anger around the election and it's legitimate to feel that way. But I'm willing to bet that none of the political talk in the next week constitutes a 'Best Of' post anyway.

That being said: feel free to use this topic (!!!!) as political talking points. I'm serious. People deserve to discuss their opinions and I don't want to hamper them too much.

If you have political stuff to say, say it in here. I'll promise to lightly moderate this topic, which means this topic will naturally lead to bad vibes and poor arguments.

But we need a place to discuss and vent.

I'm simply annoyed that all the news stories post-election have only slightly changed. We went from 'here's all the awful things Trump will do if he gets re-elected' to 'here's all the awful things Trump is planning to do now that he's re-elected'. It's not really new content, just the same stories over again.

There wasn't even a week off from it, the man and his coverage is an assault on all the senses and it's just never ending.

Probably because he is awful, but I understand the frustration.
