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!

Better for the US. For the rest of the world she would have been a plague.
Can I get like a gram of whatever the hell you're smoking?
It's amazing to me that so few USians seem to understand the role the US plays in the world - but I'll be happy to enlighten you.
Hillary would have handled the COVID-19 pandemic in the US far, far better than Trump have. Do you think that would have been good for you, perhaps?
Unfortunately for the rest of the world, Hillary, being a Kissinger-trained and approved arch imperialist and warmonger, would have revelled in the bodycount she could rack up in the 3rd world - something which Trump was absolutely far, far too incompetent to do in the manner expected of the war criminals you vote into the Waffle House.
Now now, Waffle House just runs FEMA, not the whole country.
Still would have been better then Trump.
Again... better for the US. For the rest of the world she would have been a plague. You do understand there's a world outside the US, right?
Damn, you said it twice so it MUST be right
I said it twice because you didn't comprehend it the first time. And, apparently, not the second time, either.
Said what?
Yawn.
Yes because Trump was just great for everyone else.
Just because I recognize what you're saying as being completely moronic doesn't mean I didn't understand. You're just flatly incorrect.
Again… she would have been better for the US. For the rest of the world she would have been a plague.
There is no need for you to demonstrate any further that you are perfectly content with US-enabled murder-sprees in the 3rd world as long as it doesn't affect your bubble of privilege in the imperial core, liberal - you've managed that perfectly well.
