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!

This just maybe the craziest election I have experienced in my life.
In your life, so far.
Depending on who wins this may be the craziest and last.
Super bleak, read at your own risk
If Trump wins it won't be the last election. Elections will become increasingly more of a sham than they already are, but the legitimacy propaganda is useful to Republicans. The electoral college will become more powerful, his supporters will throw out more ballots from poor districts, and the Supreme Court will keep overriding results. All this will be done while gaslighting the population about how they're fixing democracy.Oh no.
But this election, you get your choice of toppings!
That’s good!
The toppings are loaded with potassium benzoate.
…
That's bad.
But injecting the potassium benzoate cures COVID.
That’s bad too, and you should feel bad.
You guys are getting topped? I can't even get a booty call
2000 was still worse, as presidential elections go. The race wasn't decided until December 12, 2000, only after the Brooks Bros Riot, and SCOTUS basically saying "Stop counting, Bush wins."
This is when I first started to hate ted cruz and was introduced to three of the current justices

Holy shit, how did I not know this before.
Well, December 12, 2024 hasn't happened yet. There's always a chance they get involved again
And who would they side with this time I wonder 🤔
The 2000 election was decided illegally. Dems should have done a nationwide French-style full protest with complete work stoppage and vandalism.
The failure of FPTP was laid bare for all to see. Anyone who doesn't support RCV after that is either a fool or already bought.
American's haven't properly defended their freedom since the 1700's.
Roger Stone was behind that madness, as well as J6 – he was so confident in their J6 plans, he had a legitimate documentary team following him that day as they did their ‘war room’ fuckery at the Willard hotel, and some of their footage was used at the J6 congressional hearings.
And good news, everybody! Stone is still walking free and doing more of the same fuckery as we speak! He’s still, to this day, a main operative behind trump’s campaign. Will be wild!
Roger Stone was convicted of his fuckery around congressional inquiries in 2020, seven felonies, and Trump commuted his sentence in July 2020.
Then in December 2020, Trump pardoned Stone, along with Manafort and Charles Kushner (father of Jared Kushner).
I'm not sure how it's very cool and very legal to be able to pardon people who did crimes for you, but there you have it.
Makes Bush v. Gore look tame
Some people born after the 2000 election are 23
Bush vs Gore was a fucking Met Gala compared to this Mad Max shit
Buckle up, this ride is just starting.
