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!

She describes herself as a “proud Republican.” Wat.
Just because she was sexually harassed by one doesn’t mean her politics have to change.
I mean her politics are pro misogyny by a party led by a serial rapist so ostensibly she supports the sort of behavior she’s complaining about.
Same as with millions of other people in this country. She is no different by virtue of the fact that a shitbag sexually harassed her.
I’m expressing sardonic surprise that she doesn’t like when the consequences of her own politics are applied to herself.
The only thing that (sometimes) causes the politics of Republicans to change is directly experiencing what their policies support and promote.
See all the Republicans rejecting Trump now when anyone with a brain could see how awful and dangerous he was in the 90s, all those that flipped on LGBTQ+ issues because they had a gay or trans child, those that demonize welfare until their district/state falls on hard times, etc.
I think it’s fair to expect someone who has experienced sexual harassment to be disillusioned by a party that is trying to get a convicted rapist to be President.
