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!

People haven't forgotten. That's not the issue Biden is facing.
One, fatigue isn't about forgetting, it's about not caring. Second, more than one problem can exist at once.
"Trump fatigue" is not why Biden will lose if he does. He has alienated the people who care the most. That is his singular failure in all of this that will cost him his win, a product of total hubris.
I doubt that. If they truly care the most, they'll vote to make sure Trump loses.
Or they'll not vote for Biden, since it's unconscionable to vote for him and reward Democrats for supporting genocide. This is the problem he has created for himself, he's made it morally impossible to support him, and arrogantly thinks people will out of their own selfishness and fear.
Voting for Trump is even more unconscionable, and only liars claim there's a third choice under FPTP.
It’s my right to vote for whoever I want. If the system is rigged Biden should have done more to make me want to vote for him instead of Jill Stein.
That's hilarious. You're going to end up with trump and shit on your own face just cuz Biden isn't perfect.
The system isn't rigged you incompetent tit. That's how fptp works.
I’m not the one that it’s going to fuck🤷🏼♂️. I tried to vote for Bernie and got shit on. Let it burn. Idgaf.
You want to take out the guy who through diplomacy has limited the amount of deaths to 30 something thousand, and make way for the guy who wants to finish the job?
Sounds like you are more pro-genocide of Palestinians than Biden is.
Morally impossible? Geez I guess we should just get ready for more genocide with a side of human rights violations all over our shores too. Sorry, women, black Americans, and immigrants, Democrats would rather make a show of their morals than pick the much much much lesser of two evils. Big picture doesn't matter here.
If we had to pick a candidate who aligns with all our morals, no one would ever vote. Vote for Biden, and then to make a difference fight on your local level(city) for ranked choice voting! Once you win that fight, try to get it enacted in your county. Do not waste your vote on Trump over this. That's what staying home or voting independent will do, and once Trump wins, you'll regret it. (Trust me, I fucked up and voted independent in 2016 for my "morals" Never again.)
