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!

It's not.. I was aware of her 82 page economic plan. How come you weren't aware of it? It's your fault that you weren't aware of her economic plan while people like me were aware of it. If I did you then you could have done it.

Informing the electorate of the plans is the job of the candidate.

Harris did inform us of her 82 page economic plan. I wouldn't have known about her plan otherwise. You just were not paying attention. That is primarily your fault. Although it is partly the media's fault also.

If a candidate's campaign doesn't work, it's always the candidate's fault.

[–] btaf45 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

It's not. There is no way Harris could have personally come to your house and tell you to start paying attention to the real world of reality. That doesn't scale.

Maybe the reason Harris lost was because she had people like you running her campaign.

[–] btaf45 1 points 1 week ago

Maybe the reason why Harris lost is because people didn't understand they were screwing themselves and not Harris by not voting for Harris. The media ALWAYS buries the important stuff, so that their billionaire owners can score gigantic GOP tax cuts for the rich. That's why you have to work extra hard to know what is really going on.

The problem is that you thought the media was going to tell you the important stuff. They don't do that because they serve the wealthy elites, not you.
