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!

It doesn’t matter. He has no chance of winning anything. Regardless of the shitty things he’s done, I appreciate that he’s calling out Trump now. Republican voters need to hear it from Republicans and I don’t really care how the media paints Christie as long as they deliver the message. Trump is a bigger threat than ever. Most candidates either support him or tiptoe around without acknowledging how dangerous he is. We need someone to take him head on. Frankly, it’s better when those people are former supporters who got to see things up close.
DeSantis is a POS. I live in his state. He’s a racist fuck and he hates LGBT people. The schools here barely have any books in the libraries and now there is new curriculum teaching that black people benefited from slavery. He is deranged.
Ramaswamy is another scumbag. I can’t say whether he’s worse than DeSantis. He might be. He certainly doesn’t believe in the same kind of America most of us do.
Unfortunately, the nominee is going to be one of this pitiful bunch of assholes. Personally, I think Haley is the least toxic, although that’s not saying much. I just don’t want Trump, DeSantis or Ramaswamy.
