Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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!

Trump is a convicted rapist and half the country is okay with that.

We need a massive turnout in November. Vote them all out.

Trump has lost support since his loss in 2020. A sycophantic media lifts him up, polls show support for him, but talking to Republicans makes it clear that many not like him. There are a lot of Never Trumpers. A lot.

But we should still turnout in November.

Problem is that these never never trumpers on the right are never going to vote for Biden so if they do vote, it will only help trump even if they say they don't like him.

Don't listen to what people say, watch what they do. Plenty of maggats say they don't like trump right up until it's time to lockstep and vote for the fascists. Some of those same people would vote against any other party who does the shit the republicans are pulling now but because they have a R next to their name they get their vote regardless of much they disagree with them.

Fucking A... thinking he was a joke is how he got in originally...along with the left pushing candidates like Trump because he was thought to be unelectable...let's make sure hes unelectable.
