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!

Nah. Biden is still better than today's Republicans.
But that's a recent development.
Republicans from 20 years ago though, Biden was buddies with the worst of the worst since then and still agrees with a lot of their views
But a Republican from 2004 shouldn't be the Dem candidate in 2024.
And if we keep supporting candidates like Biden in the Dem party, the next one is going to be worse.
The DNC won't take the message voters don't like this, and they're not letting us all have primaries anymore.
It's really looking like the only choice is making a new party, it's going to have to happen eventually so we might as well start the day after this election.
I love Bernie, but I think he's wrong about having to change the party from within at this point. I don't think the national DNC is worth saving or even possible to be saved.
Theyre too corrupted by wealthy donors and AIPAC. And their willing to shove terrible candidates like Hillary and Biden down our throats because trump is worse. The DNC hasn't been acting rationale since a young Black man beat their favorite 16 years ago. People talk about Obama breaking trump at the Press dinner, but he broke the DNC a couple years before.
Old wealthy white people regardless of party really didn't like a young black progressive being able to win in their system
thank you for expanding on the comment
that is what trying to say
neither party is supporting the forgotten fourth branch of government- the people
