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 the best summary I could come up with:
ABC News said it’s the lowest approval rating since former President George W. Bush from 2006 to 2008.
Biden led Trump by 15 points when respondents were asked respectively whether Trump and Biden were “honest and trustworthy”: 41 percent said that description applies to Biden — unchanged from the previous poll in May 2023 — and 26 percent said that description applies to Trump, down from 33 percent in May 2023.
Trump led Biden when asked whether the candidates had the mental sharpness to serve effectively and whether they were in good enough physical health to serve effectively — but both saw their numbers dip, when compared with last May.
One sliver of good news for Biden’s campaign could come from the decrease in his disapproval rating for his handling of the economy.
In the past, however, Biden’s campaign has warned not to focus too much on polls, noting it’s still very early in the election season.
The poll surveyed 2,228 adults and had a margin of error of 2.5 percentage points.
The original article contains 473 words, the summary contains 172 words. Saved 64%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
