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!

Yeah as far as legislation goes he’s been one of the most effective presidents we’ve had. It’s been overshadowed by the media, constant rhetoric about his age and the small handful of mistakes he made. All in all he’s been good.
It has been overshadowed by funding the genocide of Palestinians
The same would happen under Trump. No escaping that truth. So pick your poison.
Na, Trump would say something stupid like....
....
...
You know what, I've been up for nearly 20 hours and cant get that stupid. Anyone wanna help a brotha out?
Hold on, let me get the puke bag ready.
Sorry that's as far as I could get before I had to fill the bucket.
I saw that full second smile in my head and now I don't like you. You placed it perfectly.
That's the result of way too many hours where I had to look up a speech to see if he actually said something.
Trump would say somehting like....
at least, that's all I really here between the greasy-fart noises whenever he speaks.
Start rioting. If those are your only options.
Or you know, we could all get involved with the primary and off season election process and work to elect people that are inherently better than the options we got. 🤷♂️
Right, business as usual neoliberalism will save the country founded on the back of a genocide and a 300 year slave trade. Good call dude.
Let me know how that rioting goes for you, tough guy.
Not my country lol. Just a neighbors advice. Keep up the moral superiority, I'm sure it won't get any worse than genocide and razor wire at the border.
If anything is been overshadowed by Trumps ego.
Palestine is just on peoples mind now
Ahh yes I too like to refer to my housing and food costs being historically high as a handful of mistakes.
Also, 27,000 Palestinians.
He must have quite big hands.
I have a feeling Biden has less to do with the rising costs of everything than the overt corporate greed displayed by the largest megacorps in the U.S. that own 90% of everything, but what do I know?
The US government absolutely has a hand in food prices. The housing price is something he could do stuff about but just won't.
