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 simply don't get it at all. They complain about housing costs, but the republican Governor they voted in has vetoed rent control bills and suggests a "free market approach to housing".
They complain about inflation when in reality the US is doing reasonably well there compared to a lot of places in the world.
Then there is this nugget about Trump:
“He has issues, but who doesn’t have issues in their personal life? He has no fear and he’s not afraid to fight,” said Valdovinos.
Jesse, what the fuck are you talking about? Is this still 2016? He had a term, you know exactly what a Trump presidency will be like. It was widely considered the worst presidential term ever. Stop going by fucking ~vibes~ I swear to God
You say you dont get it, butvthr answer is simple: undereducated and willfully ignorant
"He's willing to fight against working class people for every ounce of loose change he can pillage from the federal budget. That's why I believe he'll fight for us working class people."
They're not going in vibes, they're going on the vibes they were told about.
I hope their paperwork's in order.
You know it won't be.
"But you never asked for it before!? Where are you taking ME!? BUT I VOTED TRUMP!!!"
and Mrs. Garcia was never seen again, and no one knew what happened to her. Some say she was deported, and others talk about a camp outside an Air Force base that people never leave when they enter. It has a strange snow falling around the area that floats gently with the breeze covering everything with a fine powder. No one gets close enough to see what it is, and honestly, everyone is far too busy looking for their papers to bother....because if the PB find you, and you don't have them on you...well you end up like Mrs. Garcia.
🤦🏽 🤦♀️🤦🏻♂️
