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!

Why would anyone think Biden is actually posting this shit to social media himself?
Why do they keep hiring interns that want to make Biden seem like trump?
All I want is a functional adult in the White House. But that's just not an option these day.
I'd ask if "moderates" ever feel embarrassed over this stupid shit, but it's been obvious for decades their line is habitually right above republican.
So whatever bullshit Republicans are fine with, give it 4-8 years and both parties are going to act like it's normal.
Biden could have given the traditional pre game interview and alleviated fears of his ability. Instead he cancels it for the second year in a row and the media pretends he's posting "dank memes" and that's just as good.
I don't care.
What?
You have one. Hence the U.S. economy getting back on track, inflation dropping, unemployment low, fuel costs low and infrastructure finally getting rebuilt. Plus much cheaper insulin for seniors.
Ohhhhh! Wait, what you meant is that all you want is someone to do exactly what you want them to do. My mistake.
RECORD HOMELESSNESS
Exactly what do you expect Biden to do about that?
He should be like Jimmy Carter and start building them homes himself, by hand. /s
Anything would be better than the gas lighting bullshit they're trying to pull at the moment.
what "gaslighting" is biden doing about homelessness?
GREAT TASTE
No all you want to do is shit on Biden because it's all you do. Apparently adults can't have a sense of humor.
Me, I'm just blocking and moving on. I've seen enough of the Macedonian Contractor Troll Farm pablum. They're in every politics thread now.
And just like the highly suspicious stop oil protests that inexplicably target museums, I don't disagree with some of their points at all but the way they're being complete fucking idiots about it means we're done here.
You think Dark Brandon didn’t do this? You simple fool…
I got a chuckle out of it. the real problem with biden is he's funding a genocide abroad while going easy on secessionists at home.
He's got a couple.
But mentioning them in comments or articles gets a shit ton of down votes.
People really think talking about problems is worse than the problems and we should ignore them
It's not because we don't think problems should be talked about, it's that you're comparing a functional adult to Trump and acting like you can't tell the difference. I'll help, there's only one real difference: Biden isn't a fucking traitor. That's the one that we care about.
So drop the act, bud. This one is too simple even for the dullards like me to forget: Trump is a traitor, Biden is not, and we don't vote for traitors.
Nope
Biden is a better president than trump, that's indisputable.
That doesn't mean Biden is good enough to be president.
Hell, I don't even know you, but I fell confident you're better than trump. If you wouldn't support a genocide, I'd say you're a better option than both of them.
It's a pretty low bar, lots of potential candidates not only would be a better president, but more importantly have a better chance of winning the election.
Hey, I want AOC to run, but until then I'm not going to discourage people from voting for the only candidate who's not going to piledrive the US headfirst into the dirt.
So again, drop the act. Yeah you want a better candidate than Biden, great; that's not the choice. The choice is Biden or Trump. If you don't vote for Biden, your voting for Trump. If you don't believe that fine, stop reading; if you do, there's nothing more to say anyway.
You still don't get it...
This is the same shit we went thru with Hillary.
Biden is unpopular. He will depress turnout. Depressed turnout is how republican presidents are made.
I hope some day you get that, but I'm not explaining it again.
YOU still don't get it. On the surface, you act like Biden and Trump are the same, when they're not. It's nice you think I'd make a better president than Trump, but a literal rock would make a better president as that's incapable of treason.
Unless you have a plan to change the Democratic nominee this year, all you're doing is depressing voter turnout by encouraging people to forget one simple fact: Biden is not a traitor.
I do hope you'll understand someday soon, but until then you can have this block, because I'm not explaining it again.
