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!

To not vote for either nazi. You probably don’t live in a swing state so your vote doesn’t matter anyway, all thanks to the amazing electoral college that the democrats never even mention abolishing despite losing the 2000 and 2016 presidential elections because of it.
That not a plan. It really easy to criticize from the outside instead of doing anything. You're doing less than anything.
I’m currently annoying nazis. Do you live in a swing state?
So nothing. This isn't directed at you, but I'm getting really tired of so many on the left bitching about everything, but not offering any viable alternatives. People don't want to get their hands dirty in the trenches.
Reminds me of a Teddy Roosevelt quote:
But, feel free to dismiss this wholesale since he was a bad person (probably).
Dude if you like teddy roosevelt quotes, you’re going to love all the horrible shit he said about Native Americans. His family also got their start by selling drugs to China.
The only viable thing to do is to vote for genocide and make excuses for it.
Or you could not vote and get more genocide in a variety of flavors! Hey when we're all dead, at least you'll finally stop complaining.
