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!

This woman IS deranged. It's hilarious that she's demanding a timetable for anything from anyone and assuming she is a person of any consequence.

"Is biden isolating due to covid? no.. no.. HE MUST BE DEAD, AND KAMALA AND OTHER DEMOCRATS ARE PUPPETING HIS CORPSE LIKE WEEKEND AT BERNIES!"

jesu fucking christ. What kind of saturday morning cartoon writer is writing the plot for this shit.

The thing is, it makes no sense...

If Biden died, Harris is president and it changes nothing.

They're just scrambling and don't really have anything on Kamala apparently

[–] ZapBeebz_ 52 points 4 months ago (3 children)

My favorite part of all this is that they actually have nothing on her. All their attacks are based on surface level observations and blatant racism, not anything about policy or scandals or anything. Frankly, the worst thing that could happen is someone unearths an old picture of Kamala ordering a hot dog with mustard while wearing a tan suit.

Trump voters largely don't care about policy or scandals. They do, however, care about racism and sexism.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 4 months ago

Vance is trying to push the border thing (whatever weird conception of the border dominating MAGA minds right now, no idea what that is exactly, this week anyway) on her screaming that it’s her fault for the last 4 yrs.

. There’s some of that from Trump social media as well.

.

So far, that’s all I’ve seen them try.

.

Can’t really one up her bit on how she spent years as a prosecutor trying abusers of women, cheaters, and fraudsters and thus she knows Trumps type. No credible defense on that one.

...with her feet on the desk, while giving a latte salute to "the troops".

[–] TipRing 22 points 4 months ago

They bet the farm on "Biden is old and senile" and then the uno reverse was played.

[–] draneceusrex 12 points 4 months ago

They don't want Harris to run for 2 terms, and they want to try and cause a shitshow in the Senate over a VP confirmation. They have lost all agency right now and are desperate for anything. QQ more GOP. Keep it up with the racism and misogyny. Fucking snowflakes.

[–] takeda 7 points 4 months ago

All they had on Kamala during her election for the California senator were things that Republicans are actually supporting.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 months ago

They dont, lol.

It's glorious watching them scramble about.

[–] Diplomjodler3 6 points 4 months ago

What do you mean nothing? She's a ... gasp ... woman! And she's not even white! Literally the downfall of Western society!

[–] CharlesDarwin 1 points 4 months ago

Oh, they have something alright. A raging case of serious butthurt.

[–] [email protected] 62 points 4 months ago (2 children)

I hope they "weekend at Bernie's" him after he gets better from COVID: spend a couple days at senator Sanders' house, hold a press conference about passing the torch to the next generation, really make it a thing. But insist on calling it his "weekend at Bernie's" at every opportunity

[–] [email protected] 34 points 4 months ago

He has to be wearing his aviators the whole time

[–] 18_24_61_b_17_17_4 25 points 4 months ago

Christ that would be gold.

[–] 5oap10116 26 points 4 months ago

He should totally dress up as bernie from the movie and get two young dudes to do the same and put him on a hand truck to be wheeled out to the podium for his next conference only to step off, take the aviators off, not address what just happened, and start his speech. No malarkey.

[–] gAlienLifeform 22 points 4 months ago

The kind of person with the great judgment to look at Lauren Boebert and say "I am excited for the opportunity to work with your campaign, you seem like a good candidate"

[–] [email protected] 15 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Let's be honest here. She's just going to move the goal posts regardless of whatever proof is given to her.

[–] CharlesDarwin 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Qbert the Qaren will DEMAND to see the manager!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

As soon as she's finished giving a handy.

[–] Delusional 8 points 4 months ago

It's because that is exactly what they would do if they were in that position and that situation happens. It's so fucking obvious at this point that they love accusing Democrats of shit they do. Constant projection.

[–] CharlesDarwin 4 points 4 months ago

They've been blasting Biden because #BidenSoOld for a very long time, then he drops out, and now their heads are going all splodey - they are going even crazier than they were previously.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

lmao I totally forgot he had covid. Obvious explanation

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

Literally what they say about every old sick person. RBG was most recent
