Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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!

I know "The Daily Mail!" but they're the only one covering this.

Also, Joy Behar and Biden are the same age. 81.

Bill Maher is one to talk.

His utterances have close to the same quality as the noises a cadaver makes while decomposing

2.5 million daily viewers. They're still influencing, unfortunately, a lot of people.

Fuck Bill Maher

Bill Maher is funny, he makes fun of Christians as superstitious, but is himself superstitious, and is an outspoken antivaxer contrary to the evidence.

But he is only funny if you find idiots funny.

I actually watched his show years back, but I stopped when he show after show started saying "Iknow we shouldn't talk about Hillary's emails. But have you seen the latest?" He is such a moron.

Nothing particularly against Biden but he actually look like a cadaver let's be honest..

This is the best summary I could come up with:


Bill Maher has branded Joe Biden 'cadaver-like' and compared him to Dracula in a no-holds barred interview on The View.

He then went on to draw comparisons to Dracula, labelling the president Ruth Bader Biden, the former Supreme Court justice who died in the role despite requests to step down.

Her refusal to resign during the Obama administration as suggested paved the way for Donald Trump to eventually replace her with a more conservative judge after her death.

A poll in March revealed that 60 percent of Americans do not believe either Trump or Biden have the mental faculties for the White House.

Biden came under fire for an embarrassing gaffe on Monday when he mistakenly told a crowd a hostage being held by Hamas was 'here with us today'.

Maher also reiterated his condemnation of the student protesters who set up encampments on US college campuses in support of Gaza.


The original article contains 583 words, the summary contains 151 words. Saved 74%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!

Better to be Dracula than Hitler.
