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 regarding Palatine is bad. Trump is worse.
What other policy are you referring to?
Off the top of my head; Ukraine, end of the petro dollar, Israel, Afghanistan withdrawl exexution, border security, supply chain failure, mandated vaccines that were struck down, increased spending that increased inflation, etc. That is without even refreshing my memory.
Ukraine is getting support and still fighting orks. It is a politically delicate situation, but it is working.
Dunno the pertro dollar, I assume you are wrong, but I'll enjoy looking into it later.
Afghanistan withdrawal was entirely on trump.
There is plenty of ramped up, unnecessary border security, I think we are still breaking records for people and drugs stopped there..hell, fox news, in their stupidity, reported that Biden's border stopping record highs of fentanyl from getting across the border was a bad thing. trump's Whitehouse was prescribing the stuff!
Supply chain failure...of? You talking about the problems during COVID that the trump administration cocked up so bad that it caused supply chain failures?
Vaccines was struck down by the ignorant and the stupid, not Biden.
Economy is finally recovering from the shambles that trump left it in with his record debt. Biden did an impressive job fixing that so fast when Congress fought him the whole way.
But, hey! Maybe the one thing you are right about is the Petro dollar! Even a maga-media consumer has to be right every once in a while!
Thank you for writing that so I don't have to.
The end of the petrodollar is complicated. On the one hand it reenforced American hegemony and propped up US financial institutions and instruments. On the otherhand it was quite unfair and sometimes unpopular even among US allies.
The end of it means US finance will have to work harder to stay competitive and the US has to trade currency on (slightly) more equal footing but it might lower international resentment.
We are giving billions so that Ukraine can fight and tens of thousands of Ukainians can die and still lose. And i am going to stop here because you dont have a clue about anything and are just saying things.
You don't have to clarify, we all already know the opinions you are told to have.
imagine a ml user not spewing out the propaganda fed to them
What exactly do you think the petrodollar is?
Its not an actual thing its the system where oil is bought and sold in dollars.
