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!

Hey - hey member that time after Obama won when the republicans got all concerned and made a super serious report about what was wrong with them? Member? And the report said they should be less hateful to Latinos and other people? And the next thing they did was quadruple down on hating everyone who wasn’t them? Member that?
That was awesome.
Trump straight up opened his campaign by calling them rapists.
Fucking fetid shit bag. I was like, "so that's it right? Dean whats-his-face said 'yeehaw' too loud and lost, this dumbass just noosed himself... Right?"
Ah the bodega was silent when I walked in for my breakfast sandwich that November morning. "What the fuck" was quickly uttered by all that day, peppering the air like the guy making my breakfast peppered the egg sandwich.
I member!
Growth & Opportunity Project https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Growth_%26_Opportunity_Project "the perception that the GOP does not care about people is doing great harm to the Party and its candidates on the federal level, especially in presidential years."
"emphasizing the increasing Hispanic population in the United States and urging the party to limit its rhetoric on immigration policy. It also recommended appealing to younger voters by reducing social conservatism in the party."
"The report emphasized the importance of appealing to African-American, Latino, Asian, women, gay, and young voters"
Yeah, about that...
