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!

"My plan is going to replace Obamacare by having the exact same plan as Obamacare."
They can't replace it because Republicans came up with it in the first place.
Not true. Romneycare had a public option
hahha helll yeah... a conservative plan then gutted by conservatives that happens to be purposefully nicknamed obamacare.
the scary part is democrats act like it was some kind of win instead of the bare fucking minimum
It was a win, a bare fucking minium win. Something like 60 million more Americans have healthcare now and pre-existing conditions are covered, which used to be insurance companies go to for declining even more claims.
It's shitty, but so much better than the abysmal system we had before.
insurance != healthcare. that 60 million people can now successfully become bankrupt while maybe gettning some care is not a 'win'.
its a conservative + democrat love letter to insurance companies. you know, the only industry that literally only profits at the cost of human suffering.
america is #1 in medical bankruptcy despite insurance
but yeah, now the insurance company cant NOT take our money before denying the claim, thanks obama
Didn't said Vulture Captial Investment firm, the founder of Bain Captial, ol' "binders full of women", Mitt Romney, recently break from the GOP and say he'd vote Democrat?
Have to admit its weird being on the same side of anything as that police impersonating shitstain.
Sort of. He said he would rather vote Dem than Trump or Ramaswamy. That’s still something, but it does suggest he’d happily vote for Desantis, for example.
Further evidence that Democrats are a rightwing party
