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.

Impossible I've been told Joe Biden was the most popular candidate ever and Dems would 100% lose without him.
Next you're going to tell me that not supporting Genocide would earn her even more votes.
I must admit that I got scared when Biden noped out of the re-election.
I'm just glad that Kamala seems to be bringing the unification the dems need.
Get her the nomination already! And people, people, people, don't do a Hillary and become complacent. Get out and VOTE!
Not a single person voting Democrat does so because they thought Biden was a great candidate.
It appears nobody has learned anything from Hillary's loss in 2016.
Establishment ghouls are not popular Democrats. Conservatives will vote Republican anways, appeasing to the right is worthless.
Only progressives get independents to vote blue.
Tell me you're unaware of his achievements as president without telling me...
Propagandists are fully aware, and choose to ignore said achievements as it fucks up their narrative.
I am aware Joe Biden is complicit in Genocide and performed like a senile geriatric on CNN.
Tell me you don't live in America without telling me.
I understand it's hard to see a whole picture when onde side of a single issue occupies 100% of your brain capacity
Some people find it a little hard to ignore Genocide. Good to see the average Democrat has no issue with it and willingly admits it.
The same logic and reasoning as conservative single issue anti-choice voters, it's good that America is healing its divides.
Comparing the need to Genocide brown children to need for abortion is a new low. Blue MAGA in full force.
I wasn't comparing the two issues. I was comparing your single issue voter approaches, which are the same.
Do you not see the similarities in how you argue for your "one true cause" justifying being a single issue voter?
Also, do you have a reason to call me blue maga besides pointing out that being a single issue voter means you have like-minded brethren across the aisle, or is it just because I disagree with you?
Trying to not start WW3 does not seem like a single issue to me but to each his own.
The escalations that have been warned for 9 months are getting closer and closer and Biden is sleepwalking us into a nice big war.
Ah, so when confronted with evidence of being a single issue voter, you now claim that Israel/Palestine is not a single issue.
No, buddy, you've conveyed that you're fine with ignoring all of the administrations other actions and policies, choosing to zero in on this. That's being a single issue voter.
At least the conservatives are honest with themselves. Though I guess some can mentally delude themselves into thinking "I don't think preventing the genocide of the unborn is a single issue.". You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink. I'm likely not not going to convince an account with 6000+ comments on the same issue to change your mind, and you clearly have much more free time than me, so I'm just going to stop here.
Have a good day!
Ah yes the "single issue" of foreign policy.
Is Project 2025 a single issue too?
Who are you to call someone out on not living in America? lol
So you don't live in America.
I've never been disingenuous about where I live. MI my whole life except 5 years in VA. Those are states, in case you're not familiar with them.
How am I supposed to believe you if you dont post your social security number?
I mean, no one knows you're from America either.
Oh, they aren't. That was established the other day. Which is why it's so disingenuous for them to be calling someone else out.
Who has established that, you?
You did. Right here: https://lemmy.world/post/17966612
Did you find the Unabomber?
How are they supposed to believe me if I don't post my social security number?
