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!

I don't wanna hear another damn word out of young, American leftists. They moralized, demanded, complained, and stayed home. Now shut the fuck up and enjoy the destruction of Gaza. Morons
Now do latinos and suburban women.
Singling out a single demographic for the target of your ire isn't helpful.
I get that you're upset but having a tantrum and accusing people you don't even know of helping Trump is dumb.
YOU are the reason he won. Rot.
Are you that stupid to think that 15 million non-voter were leftists?
Pew research allows that progressive are seven percent of the electorate and you actually believe that 15 million is all leftist?
Nah, there's millions of bog standard Democrats that didn't vote because 'reasons' here. Y'all put a quarter in your ass and played America.
Ironically if she'd chosen Shapiro as a running mate then she'd have had a better chance of holding PA. However reports at the time suggested she didn't want to risk upsetting the left by choosing a Jewish running mate.
Leftists wouldn't have voted for a capitalist regardless. She never had our vote to count. SHE opted to embrace war criminal Republicans, she opted to have a black man scold black men, she chose to have Clinton tell Muslim voters to suck it up and ignore that their family and friends were murdered while she helped steer the ship, she threw trans people under the bus.
Her loss is 100% hers to own. And because of her hubris trump won and got the popular vote.
If only Democrats kept that same passion holding their politicians accountable we wouldn't be in this mess
Keep blaming others but it was the left who stayed home. You all helped him win
I'm not a Democrat why would I vote for a Democrat? That's like me shaming you for not voting Republican.
Harris did everything she could to alienate everyone to the left of GW Bush and is now facing the consequences.
Leftist with brains did vote for her, because the recognized that the only other option was worse. Now we get worse because hardliners are too stupid to cope with the lesser evil. Morons.
Lesser evil is fantasy, and when a person is surrounding themselves with war criminals, people that voted with trump 75% of the time, ignoring the pleas of its citizens while telling them they are not financially struggling, they are not the lesser evil, only evil.
My point was that Kamala (and the dems) /also/ do evil, and thats why some morons didn't vote.
But I absolutely agree that it's orders of magnitude less evil than Trump.
