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!

They can't piss off the cult.
It's amusing how they all spend time campaigning for Trump as they pretend to campaign for themselves.
They've been campaigning to be Trump's VP pick all this time.
The joke's on them, though: I think he will pick Elise Stefanik. She's the only Republican who has ruined more Universities than he has.
I think he will either pick Kari Lake or Vivek Ramaswamy. I think he personally wants Vivek based on how he keeps saying what a great guy Vivek is and because he "doesn't like losers," but I am guessing Kari Lake is being pushed hard as what I am sure they think of as "competition" with Kamala Harris for women's votes.
We all know that Trump won't make that decision until the last minute, likely swayed by the last person to talk to him. But if Trump is told he needs to pick a woman, he would go with Stefanik over Lake. Stefanik hasn't lost an election, has stood up for him in Congress, and most importantly, is around Ivanka's age (a bit younger even), so is more likely to be his "type"....
Maybe he’ll make a reality show that all the networks will kill to buy.
