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!

A VP candidate who has an extensive history of talking shit on video about the president he plans to serve. Excellent choice. /s
Interestingly, Vance once called Trump “America’s Hitler.”
And he picked the side with America's Hitler, just to be clear about what he is.
And promised to help with the next coup.
Hillbilly Shitbag is cool being America's Hermann Goering.
Are we incorrectly assuming he used "Hitler" as pejorative? I certainly think it is a bad thing, but he is a Repub so he could have meant it as praise.
Vance flipped from being a never-Trumper to being a Trump bootlicker when he figured out that he needed Trump's support to get into a position to fulfill his side of Theil's patronage.
Ohio, still managing to stay relevant in a bad way
My kids were right about Ohio being sus.
Once again reinforcing the negative connotation of “Ohio” in zoomer slang - e.g.:
Vance is an opportunist who will say or do anything that he perceives will get him power and attention. So, he's just like Trump.
I would pay a lot of money for someone to take a giant screen to Trump rallies and play clips of him talking shit.
Is there a go fund me for that?
As if Republicans care. Cults don't care about reality, and they won't care that it's obvious Vance stands for nothing.
Biden campaign should buy those clips and turn them into commercials.
