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!

No matter how much I despise Trump, this lady has zero chance.
Because?
These "non voters" are bunch of fickle assholes. "I won't vote because Biden is old" "I won't vote because Biden supports genocide"... Okay, how about a young candidate who doesn't support genocide. "Oh...uh.... hold on, I need to check the online troll posts to come up with a reason... oh, I won't vote for Harris because (any reason they can find)"
They aren't going to vote at all, they just want attention. No one should court them or care about them. Their only impact is to help Trump win with their nay saying. I say fuck those pieces of shit.
Between the MAGA nuts and now throw in countless other sexist, misogynistic racist scum = Trump.
You realize that people like you are just helping the Republicans win by pushing Democrats not to vote because "it's a lost cause anyway"? Then again, it's probably what you're wishing for.
No. I hate that fake tanning bed imitator.
Then shut up about your opinion that everything is lost because that's exactly what you'll get if you don't.
Fuck off. People need to find a better answer than Harris. Burying their heads in the sand doesn't cut it.
Oh I see why you don't care if Trump wins, you're a CIS man, probably white as well, nothing will change for you
I certainly don't want EmptyHumptyTrumpty to win. But, definitely love my white privilege.
The convention hasn't happened yet, which alternative candidate(s) are you supporting for the dems? Why not just have that candidate be the VP pick?
Whitmer, Shapiro, Kelley... sorry, but, she can't pull enough votes. Loser in the whole South. Also, no for TX and AZ.
I share your concerns but shes too new a candidate to have polling numbers reliably showing what states she'd be weak in. Wish it hadn't been such a late switchup, certainly not ideal to fall back to Bidens VP suddenly like this but perhaps it catches the Trump campaign flat footed. Perhaps Vance wouldn't have been the GOP VP pick if Trump had known he was up against Harris, seems to be some indication their campaign is struggling to pivot with regards to the switch.
Please don't ruin my Sunday afternoon euphoria.
