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!

Can we stop giving Trump a platform please?
I think 1/4 to 1/2 of the American public disagrees.
For what it’s worth, I don’t think we should ever speak his name or acknowledge his existence kinda like shunning and the Amish.
I put up social media filters to make sure I don't ever see anything about the Amish or the content they post - I think it's working and I haven't had to fiddle with it in years.
Maga -make Amish great again!
The last time trump showed up to a debate he was hopped up on steroids and proceeded to have a near meltdown on national TV. There's a very good argument to be made that that performance was a not insignificant part of why Trump lost in 2020.
I for one cannot wait for Biden to goad him into an apoplexy of rage onstage with, hopefully, intervention by secret service. All Biden has to do is suggest trump isn't very smart and hell spend the rest of the time fuming and making himself look like a moron.
I want biden hopped up on amphetamines and absolutely verbally slamming the shit out of trump for an hour. Full dark brandon. Nothing else is worth watching.
steroids?
Steroids is the typical treatment for mild to moderate covid symptoms. Trump tested positive for covid three days before the debate. The fucker was feeling run down so he loaded up on steroids which made him more bonkers than usual and proceeded to spew covid all over everyone in Cleveland.
I don't know that the type of steroid you treat a COVID infection with is the same type of steroid that makes you feel things
I don't understand your train of thought. There's absolutely no way he shows up. This is only good for Biden.
