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!

Anyone capable of doing all that deserves our vote just in the hopes they show us mercy.
And here I thought all the strongman bootlicking only happened in the other party
How thick must one be to take that statement seriously?
We should be building dams outta this guy
Ah, when our side makes excuses for violent authoritarianism it's a joke, but when their side does it we should all be really concerned, I'm sure that'll resonate with the average voter and help stop the spread of fascism /s
I never said it was a joke. More like a hyperbole pointing out the farce of an argument that Kamala Harris is omnipotent.
Also "our side" or "their side". When it comes to politicians its always correct to look at words & actions. Republicans ARE more evil than Democrats.. considering recebt WORDS and ACTIONS. even if the difference is small.
If she actually tried and was unable decent and humane treatment for Central American migrants in the countries she was working in while she was addressing the root causes of migration or whatever bullshit buzzword they called it she needs to explain how and why and call out the people or institutions that stopped her from doing this. The fact that she doesn't do this makes her part of the problem.
I agree, which is why I'm going to do what I can to be a pain in the ass of the Democratic party every time I see them acting like Republican assholes (e.g. perpetuating the racist abuse of migrants and asylum seekers)
