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!

Oh damn. That flew right over my head as a kid since I didn't know about presidential terms & term limits in the US.
Tweet this at the orange idiot. I'd do it but I ditched Twitter when Musky took over.
So did I.
They should still have the debate. Empty podium and all.
Even better, have a fact checker repeat a summarized version of Trump's previous answers to similar questions and then explain why it was a lie.
Or have it cut to the empty podium for 2 seconds, before they say "oh yeah, Donald Trump was too tired to attend today, too tired, very tired candidate..."
Or say "Wow the crowd is going crazy for you Mr. Trump" followed by a shot of an empty row of seats
This is even better than saying he is a coward. We should be spamming social media, "low energy Donald too old for second debate."
I vote that he's replaced with a slowly melting ice cube.
I vote that he is replaced with a robot that cracks eggs into a cold pan at a rate of 1 egg every 10 minutes.
Come on, we can't replace him with something more competent
A head of lettuce?
Still too lively.
They should ask the questions to both candidates, and just cut to an empty podium every time it's Trump's turn.
"Mr. President, you have one minute to respond to the Vice President's claims."
crickets

Back before the 2016 Conventions, Donnie challenged Bernie Sanders to a debate. Bernie accepted and Trump had to run away from his own challenge. Worse, the event was supposed to raise money for charity...
Best entrenched base wins. Go vote and take your friends.
Pussy ass bitch got obliterated and is running scared. Can't even get a single conherent sentence about policy out of his mouth.
Vote in November and make sure his ass lands in a prison cell.
Trump is a scaredy cat man
Because that's what winners do /s
Tbf, maybe he's too busy digging a key out of his small intestines with his own hands?
careful, pussy; you might grab yourself.
Sad. What a loser. His campaign is a total disaster.
lil bitch
Trump is such a lil bitch.
At his age he’s probably exhausted, can you blame him?
Bok bok
Trump is a whiny loser and a coward. He knows it, Ivana knew it, Marla Maples knew it, Karen McDougall knew it, the underage sex workers on Epstein islend knew it, Melania knows it, and Loomer knows it.
Big sad.
Biggest coward in politics heh
Bawk, bawk, backaw!
A coodle doodle doo!
He's confused bc he got spanked really hard and didn't have to pay anyone for it
I think October 23rd would be an ideal date to organize anyone with a non-disclosure agreement with Trump to break that agreement en masse and share all the details of what he doesn’t want the public to know.
It’s be great fodder for the news cycle leading up to Election Day and I doubt Trump has the resources to legally pursue so many people for NDA breaches at the same time.
Just remember none of his supporters care. They know he lies, is a draft dodging coward, and a little bitch.
It’s about motivating others to get out and vote.

Of course he does because he's a fucking moron and a coward
Why? He said he won the last one hands down- I need to know what other pets are being eaten!!!
He knows he would lose.
Trump = big sloppy pussy
Weird coward.
🐈
Oh why did something happen
Out of curiosity why wouldn't Harris just try to do it on Fox News in order to prove that even ABC wasn't being "biased" like people claim
A place that would have moderators willing to lie would be a rather risky place to do a debate. I'd imagine fox news could end up doing false "fact checks" on her and letting trump spew lies with impunity
