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!

All their internal data must show any candidate they run will pull more votes from the GOP than Democrats, making their entire scam pointless.
I've been hearing the pundits repeat this for years, "Democrats fall in love and the GOP falls in line." It used to be a given that any Republican who got the nomination would get all the Right Wing votes. It took a convicted rapist who talked sh%t about actual veterans to make them change their minds.
For some of them to change their minds. There are still many of them who are more than willing to vote for that scumbag.
I know one that openly accepts the rapist because that doesn't impact how he performs. He also tries to dodge it saying the Tara Reade accusation is on the same level as Trump's rape.
I love the logic.
Obama besmirched the Presidency when he wore a tan suit. Trump enhanced the nation's reputation by sleeping with a porn star...
Obama asked for SPICY MUSTARD. Treason!
This is one reason I don't believe that Clinton ever used underage girls with Epstein. Clinton, Obama. and the Dems in general have been under a microscope 24/7 for decades. That's why Dem scandals involve things like standing near children and dancing in college.
