Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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!

Guys, have you noticed that Harris laughs. Like when she finds something funny she laughs at it. Fucked up, right?

When she was a prosecutor, she put people in jail that pled guilty or were convicted by a jury. What a monster.

Maybe she’s secretly been assuming the duties of the President when Biden wasn’t feeling well. We should look into that. That would make her… bad somehow.

Is she actually Hillary Clinton in a mask, maybe? Can we test that on 4chan?

Good thing we always have old faithful- racism and sexism. That’ll swing those undecideds.

The racism and sexism is great. They're calling her a DEI hire and mispronouncing her name. You would think senators who have worked with her for before she was even vice president for four years would know how to pronounce her name by now. So fucking childish.

Never mind that they never call her by last name. Totally fine for Biden or Obama tho. "Kah-mahla" quite clearly stresses that she is both a woman and non-white. Couldn't get that with Hillary.

You forgot the part where they say this while simultaneously demanding she invoke the 25th Amendment.

At work, both the resident Gen-X divorced-dad asshole and the luddite boomer have taken to complaining that “We’re all going to be called racists and misogynists for not voting for Kamala” while grousing about hating her more than Biden, never once mentioning a single point of policy that they dislike.

It's so weird that they tried to concentrate on her laugh. All it did was highlight that Trump never laughs or shows any kind of positive emotion, like some kind of hateful little goblin.

How come that live, laugh, love shit is plastered all over every repubs house I've ever been to?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago

Have we looked at her emails? There has to be something there.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

We probably share the same opinion but if sexism and racist swings any 'undecideds' that just means they're conservatives that are too pussy to say it out loud and pretend they aren't while gargling trumps balls.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

That's true BUT casual/subconscious racism and sexism is extremely common in American culture. The fact is that there is a double standard for women and minorities that most people hold to at least some extent. It's been studied time and time again that there are things that white men can do that are viewed negatively when done by a woman/minority. And that's going to affect this election.

What color suit does she wear?

Unbelievable. I can excuse the demented babbling, corruption, fraud, schoolyard name calling, and brazen lying from my side. But the Dems' insistence on wearing unprofessional suit colors is always shocking and unacceptable.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I'll take a nice pantsuit in a casual color rather than a shiny red tie that hangs down past the pantsfly

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago

I think the red tie is compensating for something.

Is she mythological? Like a sphinx?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

Or like one of those weird camel leopards.

Stupid fucking long horses

My gods I hope he blurts out 'Black Hillary' in one of his rants
