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!

He obviously demonstrably is
Are you calling Joe "there's 50 other Democrats who could beat Trump" Biden a liar? You gotta be, since you're denying that he's ineloquent.
I must have missed that part of the first amendment. Is it next to the part about a constitutional right to redress of grievances?
Yes, please.
Not our job. I bet you're one of those people who tell anyone who doesn't like your favorite music act to "make a better album yourself or shut up".
You think that's a good point, but it's not. In fact, it's every bit as asinine as any argument for voting for the Mango Mussolini.
Since the US democracy isn't very good at listening to the people in general rather than only those with the most money and power, you're probably right for the first time in your impassioned defense of settling for awful.
You say at the end of a rant bitching and moaning about people rightly being wary of having to choose between having a severely impaired president or not having a democracy at all.
Be better. Demand more of the people who are supposed to represent your interests.
Tripping over a few words during the debate isn’t “severely impaired”. And if you have to lie to make your point, you don’t have much of a point.
And also NOWHERE near the extent of it. Did you even watch the clip before declaring your disappointment in the guy trying to warn you that there's trouble ahead?
More inane projection 🙄
I watched the whole debate. And declaring “nuh-uh!” isn’t a counter argument, it’s copium.
You watched the whole debate and your internal alarm wasn't BLARING @EleventhHour?
Are you that disillusioned or dulled from politics that whatever *that* was on stage was okay and acceptable to you?
I will vote for Biden because I don't want to vote for literally Hitler but holy shit.
Congratulations on your bias shielding you from fully comprehending the extent of his sundowning, I guess?
I didn't mean only the debate, though. There's been a LOT of "what is the most powerful human in the world trying to say??" moments both before and after that specific debacle.
Lucky for me that there wasn't an argument to counter, then, just you screeching "YOU LIE!" a propos of nothing.
Again with the projection lol
WE BEAT MEDICARE.
