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!

The DNC will die before it learns a lesson.
The DNC turns over almost 100% of membership every 4 years so anything it "learns", good or bad, will be forgotten. Because it isn't a person. Tulsi Gabbard used to be a DNC leader. Now she's a Trump henchperson MAKING AMERICA NOT GREAT AGAIN

Voters will die before they learn the lesson. Beating fascism is more important than getting a candidate who agrees with everything you want.
Actually, we're going to die regardless because none of the politicians supported by either party care enough to solve the issues in this country that are slowly killing us. But yes, fascism will certainly expedite the process.
FUCKING BRING IN ANOTHER CANDIDATE THEN.
Jesus fuck... Y'all just constantly whine about your options, and when the time comes for the primary, you've got NOTHING.
We tried, twice. Got shut out, twice. Third time they didn't even allow a primary and then appointed a new person.
But next time Lucy will let us kick the football, she swears this time she'll play fair.
The only one whining is DNC fanboys when we tell them their establishment ghoul is going to lose them the election once again.
LMFAO nobody here is a "DNC fanboy". Even if I didn't like Bernie Sanders, why would I be a "fan" of a caretaker organization that has very little actual power to do anything? I'm a fan of voting for the best available candidate whether primary or general elections.
