politics
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!

of course its the people who are the problem.. democrats blaming voters is pretty standard procedure.
If you couldn't see all this coming from a mile away and with the experience of living through his previous term, yeah, it's your own gd fault.
It's both
I’m not even a Democrat it’s just how the world views Americans 🤷🏽♂️
and its a great tragedy because i prefer to believe there's a good will that powerful interests undermine in very sophisticated and underhanded ways. it is the game of a duopoly to split the electorate and set citizen against citizen- we see how identity politics has been revealed in so many ways as either vulnerabilities to be usurped or left as poisoned pills for folks to take up and be delegitimized by. attack dogs aren't born that way, they're created.. and fwiw, there are a lot of people who just want to have a chance to experience this "land of the free" and all the freedoms and experiences they're so increasingly priced out of.
no of course not.. i am not a republican or a democrat.
Thanks for chiming in...
your condescending attitude is very nice as well, appreciate it.
No problem. I like to use it when uptight aholes from other countries try to tell us what to do.
calmer'n you are
Im not twelve years old.
allegedly
I don't use school yard nonsense when talking to people, unlike you.
well i dunno what you're referring to, but its strange you keep this pointless shred of a conversation going. trying to get the last word are we?
"calmer than you are"
"last word"
What's next, "I know you are but what am I"?
Edit: commenting multiple times to the same reply was next. The worst childish behavior.
and although we're ostensibly at odds-- you're welcome to discard the suggestion, but its a great movie if you haven't seen it yet
ahh that's a reference to the big lebowski.. sorry, its the internet and referential jokes are doomed often to fail.
k
keep playing hot potato with decline, your leaders don't represent your interests.
I literally have no idea what you're talking about.
well you'd have to read it first.
It's unfortunate people misuse downvotes. What you are saying is clear, concise, cogent and correct.
appreciate it- peeps just tryna ratio their way to victory
Just because you are able to put words in a row doesn't make it a coherent sentence.
