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!

Dude is sharp, it's no comparison really between Biden and the "look having nuclear guy". Im done giving the people "worried" about Bidens mind the time of day.
He's had a couple of mis-speaks but that's because he's going too fast (!)
His stutter and mispeaks are not off-putting to me at all. He is obviously mentally fit, this isn't how someone with mental deficiencies sounds.
Yep. Watching this, anyone who claims he's mentally unfit is a fucking liar, and you can immediately dismiss anything else they have to say.
Look he's old. I completely agree it's a concern for >70% of Americans. Both are geriatrics with clear issues.
But one is morally sound. The other is not. One has smart cabinet members and advisors. The other has his fucking kids in a blatant act of nepotism and crooks.
Biden has also had a stutter his whole life. It's not new.

His pacing is way off and he's rushing. Not waiting for the applause to finish.
He's absolutely killing it, and you know it.
Congratulations, he can read empty promises that multiple speech writers wrote for him on a teleprompter.
Better than just stealing the speech from the previous guys wife.
Yup, because he knows slow or paced = "old".
He is absolutely going to destroy Trump in the debates. It's gonna be like Prime Tyson vs Marvis Frazier. 30 seconds and it's over.
How long until Donnie boy starts trying to dodge the debates because of “these corrupt political sham trials” and his fanatical followers lap it up?
"will you shut up man?" from the last debates is still one of my favorite TV moments
This is why I hope he'll commit to a lot more engagements like late shows and whistle stop tours. When he's out talking he reinforces that he's still got it together... while Trump... well he's clearly losing it.
