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!

Genocide isn't in my best interests.
If there is no option on the ballot to stop sponsoring genocide then I'm not getting what I want regardless of how I vote.
If the Democrats feel that Trump is a threatening-enough stick that they don't need to offer a carrot, then that's their problem.
You're proving my point. My whole state voted for Harris but the Democrats still lost because they didn't oppose genocide.
The people killing palestinians have names and addresses. Go bug them instead of the people who warned you that the Democrats weren't on your side.
Hey we talked about the Gaza atrocities before. Have you watched the latest debate and if so has your opinion changed about voting? Not trying to pressure just genuinely curious
Sorry for not replying until now, I didn’t have a response for you. You made me think.
No worries for the late reply, and I haven't watched the debate or even followed any of the coverage. To be honest, I've mostly checked out of the election since it's become a fait accompli.
I'll do my research on the local candidates when my ballot comes in the mail but I'll be leaving the choice for president blank. Harris will win the election anyway.
You voted against your best interests, now a rapist felon is going to give us real the go ahead and kill an entire people… you should feel like a murderer because you are one
Sounds like someone is looking for someone to blame so that they don't have to reckon with the Democrats' failure to appeal to the voters.
If you want to blame me, that's your problem. I ended up voting for Harris anyway.
Yep just like you did lol. Blood is now on your hands dumb dumb
Sorry don’t believe you.
Pardon?
If Palestine is destroyed all the blood is on your hands now. If trump helps Netanyahu it’s your fault
If you trusted the Democrats to save them, that's your fault.
If you trusted trump not kill propel he said he would that’s your fault
When did I ever imply that?
Yikes
