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!

Friends, it looks like North Carolina (along with Georgia) is lost, this means Harris needs to win Pennsylvania (+ Winsconsin and Michigan) or it’s over.
Everyone who supported Harris campaigning with Cheney, this is on you.
Everyone who supported/ didn't demand better from Harris with regards to her stance on Gaza, this is on you.
If you accepted the Democrats for failing on raising the minimum wage because "parliamentarian", this is on you.
If you accepted the Democrats failing to pursue prosecution regarding Trumps multiple attempts at stealing the election until 2023, this is on you.
Mate, things are gloomy enough right now without this type of accusatory comment.
Everyone has voted, the die is cast, if we lose everyone left of centre will be in mourning for a long time.
There's a lot I could say about your position and opinions but I just don't think this is the place.
I'd encourage you to think carefully about the type of commenter you want to be in this very troubled time.
I've been making this point for 12 months, and I'm not going to tone police myself because a delusioned class of neoliberal democrats are finally having their skulls hit the pavement of reality.
IF this was the "most important election of our lives" then why the fuck dont Democrats fucking campaign like it?
Everyone is frustrated right now.
You're the only one expressing your despair and frustration by accusing the people on your own side of letting you down.
Of course your feelings are valid and you're entitled to express them however you wish, I just feel like doing so right now in this thread is more harmful than beneficial.
Bruh, I've been making these same point the entire time. For over a year. Nothing in my timbre has changed.
What, no blame for Netanyahu or the tens of millions who voted for the felon? Or the EC? Or the muskrat?
I blame her campaign
Thats.. entirely the right thing to blame.
People: SHE CUT AN ELECTED PALESTINIANS TIME FROM THE CONVENTION TO PLATFORM A REPUBLCICAN!!!
I don't know how else to explain it to you (not you batbro) people: If Democrats wanted to vote for a Republican, they would just vote for a fucking republican.
Yeah all of that is dumb and wrong.
Its not. Democrats are accountable for this election loss. It should have never, ever been close. But here we are.
