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!

Yeah Kelley seems to be a centrist with a soul. I don't want another fucking centrist but I really must insist on a candidate with a soul
As opposed to the literal Nazi puppets that were pushed into power?
Ya I'm not compromising. Leftist or nobody
You are the reason Trump won.
LMAO if even you clown. I played it safe with the Democrats non nominee the last two times Trump won. They still had their asses handed to them.
Done playing it safe. I do blame Trump's victory on The pro Palestine protest voters though. Maybe you should be mad at them. They stayed home. I at least tried. You're a fucking joke. This isn't reddit noob This isn't a safe space for dem neolibs
You fail basic statistics and common sense, you are free to do what ever you want, but the US election cycle is a solved problem. Drawing a line in the sand inadvertantly supports everything you are against because you are not supporting the candiates who wont do MOST of those things. You let perfection be the enemy of progress and everyone is worse off for it.
Vote for your candidate in the primary, vote against their opposition in the general. Tactical voting is most important right now, otherwise you get another GOP term.
LMAO no. Schumer, Jeffries, Pelosi have shown who they are. Complicit with the fascists. Besides I live in a red state, my vote does not matter. Maybe occasionally for local
Sigh... Beating my head on a brick wall. Hypothetical then: after all the politicing, the progressives fall flat again, how do you react if the general ballot is Vance vs Newsome?
(Ive almost given up on you, but im still going to drive this point home)
Whoever is left of newsom. Like I said my vote does not matter in my state unless I lived in Omahas district, which I don't, But I get the rare privilege of voting my mind and telling the Dems to f off. Your not getting the picture, I'm the one beating my head against the wall. People want candidates who will actually fight back now, not do finger wagging like the Dems do. Newsom is a finger wager.
I also can't wait to be called a trump supporting Nazi by Dems like you.
Then my only hope is that if that comes to pass, and a progressive is not the democrat ticket, you show up and spoil your ballot. Those who do not participate give up the right to complan about it. Write in Batman, that is your right, but understand that being unwilling to compromise with the people who want mostly the same things as you do is exactly how we got here to begin with.
The Dems don't want the same things. They are complicit with the billionaires and will never hold Republicans responsible who have broken the laws and destroyed this country. I want a leftist version of Trump. No compromise just do . Republicans must suffer
