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!

not a gaffe it is age showing
he should have done the responsible thing and stepped aside for younger blood instead of selfishly holding on to power same as the Republicans
Uh...a presidential term is four years.
Here we go with the "they're all the same" bullshit.
...and your other option is just as old, but hell-bent on ending democracy and installing a fascist plutocracy.
Americans need to wake up and realize what they're saying and promoting through social channels. If you don't fully understand the immense threat we're facing, don't comment.
And if you can't stomach voting for an old man who just wants to keep the country from destroying itself, don't vote and move to North Korea.
Biden had his time as politician and vice president during the later years he could have just called it quits and left on a high note
instead he has just latched on and is refusing to let go same as the Republicans
Oh...so you're one of those "career politicians bad" folks. Listen, we've seen what a "Washington outsider" does and Washington cannot afford four more years of it.
I'm sorry, but your pride might have to take a hit on this one and you might just have to accept that our best option to keep this country together is an old-as-fuck gaffe machine career politician from Delaware.
The longer he’s a politician, the better. He gets good shot done.
I'm excited for the new passenger rail lines.
Get old white male lifetime politicians out of office!
