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!

Same attitude too. Old Walter Trump
I hate trump as much as anyone but objectively doesn't he look like he aged like 10 years the last month or so?
Keep it up, Donald!
And whoever is way up his ass, is also a racist climate change denier. (Or has that changed in the last decade or so that I wouldn't watch these shows?)
Concepts of a plan for preparation.
Tests are indeed rigged in favor of those that study.
Studying is when you read, analyze, and memorize information not when you sharpie a map to prove you're a big smart science man.
The funny thing is there was an episode of The West Wing on this subject.
iirc Leo was running for Veep and had his buddies in the press put out a ton of stories about how bad he was at debates. When Leo proved to be adept he got a much bigger boost because he was perceived as the underdog.
But I don't think that's the case here. Vance isn't ready to go toe to toe with a career politician who is getting help from people who worked with experts like Obama
Walz could just do a 90 min debate where he just explains how to do general car maintenance or lawn care and he would destroy this lying anal fissure.
"CBS has asked each candidate to fact check the other. In interest of saving time, I'll just repeat all the times Mr. Vance and Mr. Trump have been caught lying. Let's start with the Haitian dog BBQ's and move backwards. Or would you prefer starting with Mr. Trump's promise to have Mexico pay for the Wall and move forward?"
Boom! Fucking nailed it man. Well said, that would be awesome!
And then for every question, totally ignore the question and just keep listing lies.
West Wing has done irreparable brain damage to libs across the country. It's why Obama's advisors told him to give republicans half the discretionary budget when they had a supermajority and didn't need a single republican vote, compromised/means tested every bill he promoted, and went with the bloodiest possible option in every foreign policy decision. In an episode of West Wing, all that compromise and appealing the the better nature of the opposition would reward you. In reality, it just demotivates your base and lets the opposition demand even more.
Drumpf knows a thing or two about losing debates
When you're MAGA, reality is rigged
Vance is a soulless douche nozzle, but he’s a trained lawyer. I think he’ll hold his own just fine. I don’t think he’ll “beat” Waltz, but he’s probably not going to foam at the mouth over crowd sizes and pets being eaten.
In the end, does a VP debate matter?
It will if Vance shows up with an entire new personality and Walz shows up with filed teeth and a severed baby arm.
for someone who claims to be a winner, he sure does a lot of loser talk 🤣
Like father like son.
Go ahead, Vance - lose the shit out of that debate!
I could see Walz winning.
That's because he's a loser with a loser mentality.
If I didn't know any of the facts involved and was only going by emotion, Vance is ahead. Not stomping ass, but well enough to side me with Trump if I was already inclined so.
And this is exactly where liberals fail, over and over and over. We think our facts are somehow going to overrule emotions. Idiots and failures.
Trump was worrying as he knows how to read a room and had some good lines in previous debates (who built the cages). Zero chance JD Vance manages to be normal for an entire hour. He's probably got Laura Loomer prepping him.
Well even a stopped clock is right twice a day.
