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!

Biden has zero chance of winning my state, like he does with lots of states.
I'm not selling out my morales for nothing in return. I don't think the DNC will give a shit, they're going to keep doing whatever the fuck they want.
But I do now understand why Biden's most feverent supporters have been imitating ostriches and wanting to ignore problems. I wouldn't be able to look at myself in the mirror either.
Are you talking about what Obama started, trump continued, and now Biden is still doing?
Just another example how "not a Republican" isn't enough and voting "blue no matter who" fucks us all.
Have standards besides a D next to someone's name or we're all fucked.
And what they said about Trump in 2016
I remember...
Biden won his election saying he can work with a Republican Senate.
GA runoffs got donations from all over, even me.
We got both seats for a Dem Senate...
And Biden promptly told us it changes nothing because he can't even change a democrats mind so it would be pointless to try....
If you're trying to get people to vote Biden, you should stop mentioning that homie.
Nice goalpost shift.
How pissed off do Republicans get at other Republicans who work with Democrats? Could agree to give them everything they want and they will refuse because Democrats want it.
If you want people capable of working with others that's not Republicans.
So...
Why did Biden say he could work with Republicans?
After he got a Dem Senate, Biden said he couldn't work with Democrats...
So, uh, maybe you need to get stricter with you're requirements than "not republican".
Because in case you haven't noticed, when that's our standards, we end up with a lot of Dems who act like Republicans.
Hell, Biden had to wait over 30 years before the bar was lowered enough after his first presidential primary.
Maybe in another 30 Eric trump will run as a Dem and you'll be telling people to vote for him because he's better than Ivanka and she's running as the Republican...
Personally, I think if we don't start demanding more, we won't have elections in 30 years.
Hell yeah, we won't when we won't listen to the guy who says he'll be a dictator on day one, arrest his political rivals and sick the national guard or DOJ on members of the wrong political party. The one arguing in the multiple courts across the country that nobody can be a President if they have to worry about laws...
