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!

You ain't pulling any MAGA supporters off Trump no matter what you do so why try? A Harris / Ocasio-Cortez ticket would energize the Dem base, drag Progressives in by the train load, pull over all the Dem leaning Independents and almost certainly more than a few of the "We want political change!" people.
It would also result in heart attacks for double digit percentage of MAGA people and they can't vote if they have passed into the great beyond.
Aside from the funny it's also a balanced ticket with Kamala "The Understudy" Harris on top and Alexandria "The Squad" Ocasio-Cortez present but without any real power as the VP.
Then have them get out there and swing for the fences. Harris can be the calm one while AOC can get all fiery and tirade on everything. It would be a great time!
I don't swing their way politically but I'd honestly vote for that ticket ahead of anything else that's probably going to be on there. Trump is a total non-starter for me, the Libertarians have gone loony, and no one else has any chance at all of being elected.
