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!

“We’re the normal ones”
No dude. You’re not. Your running mate just gave a press conference next to a pack of sausages today.
I'm gonna need a link for this.
I'm having a shitty morning and this sounds like just the thing to cheer me up.
Frankly, it wasn't all it's made out to be.
You could almost say... They're weird!
The females are getting all hormonal about wanting to be allowed to wear clothes again. They should show more respect.
I wonder what he thinks "normal things" are for women. Probably something stupid. Dresses and cooking or some other retrogressive bullshit.
You forgot nail polish.
I'm a woman and I think about cooking and nail polish. There's nothing wrong with wanting to eat nutritious meals and have pretty hands! Doesn't mean that's all I think about, or that all my thoughts are shallow.
I'm not attacking you or defending dumbass Vance, just pointing out there's nothing wrong with thinking about stereotypically feminine things :)
It's not defending Vance, it's pointing out that Vance is pushing an age old stereotypical image of women.
At least that's the way I see it.
Pretty women at their mirrors (in their gardens) Letter-writing, (flower-picking) weather-watching... How they make a man sing!
Playing house, obviously.
cooking
But only cooking they're not paid for. Only men get paid to cook.
What does his wife think of these things he’s been saying?
The sofa could not be reached for comment.
Which one? I've only ever seen them refuse to comment..... Which says a lot about what happened to them.
She’s a smart woman, she knowingly signed up for this, there’s no way she married Vance and didn’t know what kind of person he is.
She just wants him to remember to put the eyeliner back where he found it or buy his own.
Sharing eyeliner is how you get a sectionally transmitted disease.
I love the sarcastic title “Knower of Women”.
I bet he's got binders full of them like Romney did
It's got the same vibe as 'sex-haver'
Women do care about "normal" things, including abortion.
Inviter of women into the men’s room
Reminder that when Republicans called him out for having a Indian wife, his defence was, "Yeah, she's not white."
What a pathetic man.
J.D Vance would know.
