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!

She's the honest to God candidate that could beat Biden.
I don't like her, but she's rational and proven that she's capable.
that's assuming they all know how to write.
"With 76% reporting, it seems we have a nearly 4 way tie for the Republican Presidential candidate between Rump, Tump, Tramp, and Drump."
As long as there is a big ole R next to the name come election day they'll vote for it.
I think they are hoping Trump goes to jail and try to push a "moderate". I bet Scott's exit is probably a deal to make him VP if Haley gets the nom.
Eh, likely not vp. Two people from the same state would do nothing to help the ticket Perhaps some cabinet level position
Capable as a campaigner, but I wouldn't go so far as to call her rational.
Eh her take on the logistics of abortion law, while I disgree with her, is spot on. Anything else is delusional. You can't get a bill through the senate without 60 votes.
I will never vote for her, but the polling agrees with you. She is the strongest in a match up against Biden.
edit: The polls have been pretty consistent that Haley is strongest against Biden. Here is one example. If that still makes you want to push the downvote button, then you have no right to accuse rightwingers of mindless tribalism.
Lol we are getting down voting for speaking the truth.
Fucking people only want to hear/read what they want the narrative to be. Fuck reality.
The degree of group think and lack of nuance on Lemmy is starting to get to me. My politics are firmly progressive, but that shouldn't even matter for what I'm saying, which is an objective empirical claim.
If you don't think that every Republican is evil, unconditionally, then your opinion is invalid.
