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!

Even on here 2 months ago, hinting towards biden not being a good option would get you destroyed and downvoted to oblivion by the "BoTh SiDeS" brigade. It's amazing how quickly they shriveled up and blew away.

They pretty quickly pivoted to their new MSNBC talking points.

  • "But why is no one talking about Trump?"
  • "No one else would have the incumbent advantage."
  • "4 months is simply not enough time to get a new nominee ready."
  • "You should have told us before the primaries that you didn't want Biden."
  • "Suck it progressives. This, like everything else that is my fault, is all your fault."

I may have embellished one of those.

Lol they didn't like you pointing it out. They rammed Biden past the normal process for making sure we have a good candidate and now want to say it's too late to change.

That's behavior im used to seeing from the Republicans on climate change. And I'm really disappointed to see it in the Democrats now.

I think you forgot one.

  • stop supporting Trump with talj like that.
