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
Me? No.
The only impact this really has on me is seeing how everyone else reacts. My life was remarkably similar under Trump, Biden, and Obama.
This is what losing feels like.
That’s the Republican way of thinking for sure. “Oh, it didn’t personally impact me? I don’t care.”
You’re a fool if you think Trump would be anything but catastrophic for the world. Naive or a shill.
They're saying there was no measurable change in their lives driven by political leadership in the last 16 years? They're arguing in bad faith.
That's why he called them a Republican.
You literally asked if it would be worse for me.
Yeah, people said the same thing in 2016. Then the democrats nominated Hillary Clinton over Bernie Sanders, guaranteeing a Trump victory.
Just goes to show, Trump is preferable to a candidate who actually fights for commoners.
This is what I mean by we're losing no matter what. I don't think you're capable of understanding this, though.
Sad how you feel justified in calling others 'fools.'
I get you're just a sad little loser and saying this dumb shit is just your way of getting attention from strangers on the internet.
But on the tiny off chance you're not a troll that knows how stupid your own argument is:
Trump has literally said he will be a dictator from day one. He has already made 1 major attempt to end the Democratic process in the US. And has a several courts including the supreme Court stacked in his favour, given another 4 years that will only get worse and he has a much better chance this tike around of actually ending democracy in America. So even if you truly belive the stupid fucking opinion that Joe Biden is just as bad as Trump, taking the hit and voting for Biden this time means you can vote for someone else in 4 years time, so you have a chance to get a president that actually works for you. But if you don't vote and Trump gets elected then there's a good chance you never get a say in who is president ever again.
Also you know your incredibly obvious fake concern over gaza is fucking disgusting btw. You're genuinely a piece of shit.
I get that you're just having an instinctual response to someone who goes against your tribe.
I see it all the time and don't expect more from you people.
If you're going troll at least put some effort in
Like I said, I don't expect more from you people.
I hope you weren't looking for a raise from the Kremlin because you're the worst keyboard warrior I've seen yet.
automated response
So you don't have an actual response? You're just going to retreat to your "hurr-durr-tribalism" any time someone actually challenges you?
No, it goes to show that a bunch of stupid assholes abstained from voting because both of the candidates sucked, and a bunch more stupid assholes who probably wouldn't have voted decided to vote for Trump "for the lolz". Bernie wouldn't have beaten Trump in 2016. Biden wouldn't have beaten Trump in 2016. And here you are with the benefits of hindsight, yet you're still pushing the same agenda as 2016.
Your stupid rhetoric will get Trump reelected.
