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!

I'm saying it changed past tense.
That is not the only reason.
But you apparently don't know any of the others, because I didn't mention them in my last comment.
And instead of asking for more, or even (God forbid) you looking into it yourself...
You're insisting there isn't anything else, when even Donald fucking Rumsfield knew:
But again, it take very little effort to pay attention.
Time?
Were 17 months into a four year term...
Start fucking paying attention, and I'm sorry if I'm not holding people's hands enough but we need informed voters and I've tried being nice.
If all you think is wrong is my tone, then stop tone policing because that accomplishes nothing and try saying the same thing I said to the same person but use a nicer tone and see if that works.
I literally don't care as long as one method works but insisting everyone use the same method obviously won't work on everyone.
So you go be productive and I'll just ignore you and hope it works out
I look at this comment and wonder where to even begin. Overall, if your goal is to make people not like you and refuse to entertain whatever point you're making, your messaging is flawless. Perhaps you should work for the DNC!
The DNC is more than one guy and knowing the history of, say, the last decade or so might help understand the position people take concerning the DNC.
