Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. 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. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

Which is exactly why the Democratic party stagnates around indecision. Every issue is "yeah, but..." Where as the Republican party just ignores literal crimes in their midst, because he's "their guy". This isn't inherently an American problem, it's a political one. Who is cheerleading? Both things can be true too, one is less evil but still needs to be fixed, it's a lot better than literally chopping your own foot off with a blunt shovel and blaming the other guy. I've always been taught and discovered myself that one must always challenge authority, and to beware anyone promising you exactly what you want to hear.
You are, when you say they represent all Americans. They represent their donors. They give lip service to all Americans.
Oh shut up. What political party doesn't? I'm waiting...
You see me claiming that any political party "represents all Americans"?
Yes, strong rebuttal. It's called messaging. Not a single entity anywhere represents all of anything. They certainly use different messaging though don't they. Also, one wants you to starve in slavery for an oligarch and one thinks giving everyone equal access to care and opportunity might be a good thing. Yes, there are evil plans on both sides, but one side literally wants to rip the candy out of the mouth of babies. I know which way I would lean.
Its called lying.
They say they believe that. They don't do much to prove it.
Babies shouldn't be eating candy. That's a good position, you're giving the Republicans too much credit.
All around the mulberry bush, the monkey chased the weasel...
