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!

I cringe every time I see political funds referred to as "war chests." It's just so fucking macho. Gotta be a meme at this point.
The boys and I would call a cooler full of Mountain Dews our war chest before hopping into Halo 2.
Don't matter how much he raised if the people in charge of the money are to fucking stupid to make sure you get on the ballot in OHIO. It's like Binden wants to lose. Between this and putting energy into Florida instead of Michigan, Pennsylvania and other battleground states. It's like watching 2016 all over again.
Seems inconsequential. Trump gets free press and Republicans, despite not being a monolith, love voting red.
The way voting works, specifically the Electoral College, Dems have an insane amount of ground to catch up. Also, everyone on the left (actual) is so disenfranchised from the process and the terrible candidates that get proffered. It’s exacerbated by disinformation and biased reporting.
I’d love to be happily surprised but I think we're getting a Trump 2nd term. Please, please, please prove me wrong, fellow Americans.
Really hope America proves you wrong, as a second Trump term is very likely to spell the end of open and fair elections
Trump is a useful idiotic narcissist. If he wins, all the people who own him will use him to usher in a fascist government where the rich control everything (in a more overt manner). Then, they kill Trump and blame the Left to start a purge.
Why do you even need a well functioning campaign when daddy Putin can just cut a blank check for you
The $93.1 million the Republicans have won't even pay Trump's reduced appeal bond. LOL. And you know he's going to grift all of that into his own legal expenses.
It's what I hope for. Him bankrupting the GoP and losing the election hard due to no funding being available
Not just his election. All. Of. Them. :)
And the knowledge that he's going to be doing that will make most major donors hesitate.
We should start planning a street party for when Trump croaks
