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 b4 both candidates are dead before the election
🤞
I don't wish either to die, but this really does seem like one of the better potential outcomes.
Sorry to break to to you, but they won't be around for much longer either way...
It would definitely make things more, "fun."
Biden, as an official act, declares it illegal for felons to be president. Biden then drops out of the next election.
Turning America off and back on again.
You know the SC would decide that Trump's convictions aren't final since they're under appeal
Edit: convictions
This is why I consider trump still effectively ruling like a king, as someone above the law, controlling one of the three major branches of the government.
That may actually be the case, at this point I'm thinking about it in terms of Harris Vs. Vance
A black woman vs. a guy who openly admits to being a racist who hates Mexicans in his own fucking campaign ad - https://vxtwitter.com/JDVance1/status/1511311385543815180
I think my favorite part is this sob story about how his mother nearly died on the "poison Mexicans are bringing into this country!"
If you do a fact check, his mother was a nurse who raided the controlled substances locker to get high.
Man I thought they were already dead, one being paraded around as a string puppet, and the other with the innards replaced with a chuck e cheeze type animatronic with chatgpt or something controlling it.
