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!

...in the primary. This headline is highly misleading.
This article is talking about the same activism that has been seen in other Democratic primaries this season. Asking people to vote against Biden in the primary in order to send a message to that they are not happy with the situation in Gaza. They are NOT suggesting people vote for Trump over Biden in the general election.
That would be absolute lunacy seeing as Trump has offered Israel his full support in their Gaza campaign and said he would do the same thing in their shoes. He said in an interview, “You have to finish up your war. To finish it up. You gotta get it done." He also actually said Israel's mistake wasn't the bombings in Gaza but the release of the pictures of the bombings. Sure blow up hospitals, but keep it a secret.
Only a complete idiot would choose Trump over Biden because of the Gaza situation. Trump would happily give Israel all the support they needed to wipe out the Palestinian people.
If Biden keeps sending weapons to Israel while it systematically starves 2 million people, you and him are going to be in for a nasty surprise come November. I will not vote for genocide, and there are thousands of other democrats who feel the same way.
So instead you're going to support the guy who wants to actively help Israel wipe out the Palestinian people. Yeah, that makes sense. 0.o
Have you been under a rock the past 6 months? That's precisely what Biden has been doing. And no, I'm not voting for Trump, either. There are candidates running who aren't genocidal ghouls.
