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!

I did the best I could…
We can give them back to Mexico now right?
Shithole state
Well, Texas, enjoy what you get. Which is apparently just a lot of dead mothers.
I mean, all the primary city centers are blue. It's the fucking idiot rednecks that get their news through Fox or Facebook that voted red. If they even had Internet at all.
It’s unsurprising, but interesting
Oh come on! America really is a hoard of unwashed masses. For fucks sake!
Don't forget dead young and old from their grid!
They actually recently (within the last few months) agreed to join a larger grid. So that should be a bit less of a problem this year. It is Texas though, so there's always the chance they turn around and shoot themselves in the foot.
This is expected, but nonetheless boycott Texas. Nazi pieces of shit.
If Trump wins every state will be Texas
What the fuck is wrong with you people? The vast majority of people here did the right thing and were repressed by gerrymandering and other shithole tactics.
Show some class and comradery, get mad at the people that did this and stop generalizing the people that live here because it's easy. People here are dying due to the bullshit Republicans have pulled. Be a better person and help.
6.2 million people did the wrong fucking thing, 4.6 million did the right thing. i don't know where you're pulling this "vast majority are angels" bullshit from
The vast majority of people HERE. You're leaving out a key word.
A lot of them thinking that Trump isn't meant to be taken literally, thus will look away at a lot of things.
Too much hate. Every cycle we can get closer. Don't make Texas feel left out.
Wow shocker
I'm not surprised, but I am disappointed.
Is there still a chance of getting rid of that ugly pile of Ted Cruz?
Nope. Somehow that scumbag coward piece of shit wins again.
LoL! You think I would be AGAINST a man who ran away while my Neighbors died?
-Pro Life Republicans who are Upset that Government DOESNT work!
why are all the post getting deleted? lemmy world
Mods might be trying to consolidate duplicate stories from multiple publications and or encouraging people to use the mega thread.
They’re probably trying to keep information consolidated and easy to parse.
