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!

MODERATORS
This is excellent. They have absolutely nothing of substance to use as ammunition. They will have only their bigotry and absurd conspiracy theories as we head into election season.
Biden is a national treasure for this.
I went sleuthing last night. Skimming some pertinent imageboards/forums, looking for the spin they'd be going with. I encountered sheer panic and they got nothing, except misogyny/racism and the lame claim she isn't a mother. That's it - for now.
E.g. on /pol/ they were trolling themselves with a supposedly deceased Biden because he went AWOL for 5 days or something. LMAO.
So... their problem now is that the new DNC front-runner also doesn't fit with their worldview? You're right, they really don't have anything. What were they going to do if Biden died? The lack of foresight here isn't surprising, but it certainly is impressive in its consistency.
That is outstanding! Thank you for getting your hands dirty for the additional insight and comedy!
Yeah, I dont see how this will do anything but put off the moderate republicans the MAGA cultists will go more extreme but those are lost anyway, but I assume there are plenty of registered Republicans who will be put off by the GOP tactics
This shows that the GOP is playing angry white man identity politics. If you aren't that you aren't welcome
Don't know if we do cake days here, but awesome username and happy cake day! I imagine you're a fellow reddit refugee :P
Thank you! Yes, I am a Reddit refugee. Please have some cake. I couldn't possibly eat all of this.
