But Harris had an annoying laugh, I'm glad I didn't bother to vote. (/s)

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!

See, the democrats faied by not running a perfect candidate vs Hitler v2 /s
Edit: see the comments below mine proving my point. Look at all these chickens.
I would have been pretty happy if they had at least democratically selected a candidate.
Obligatory: Biden can go fuck himself right off a cliff. The narcissistic dogmatic prick refused to believe anyone but him could beat Trump...
I doubt that. The whole reason the DNC pushed him in and then kept him in the race wasn't to stop Trump, it was to stop eftists from sneaking through the nomination process. The DNC "centrists" haven't run a square primary since Obama stole the nomination from "it's her turn" Hilary in 2008.

He had to drop out because everyone was crying he was too old, then elected someone equally old but with an actual criminal record.
The "he had to drop out" part is the issue and it wasn't just because of people crying about his age, the whole "we finally beat Medicare" and his brain melting on live t.v played a big part.
I'm like 90% sure he said he'd run for one term when running in 2020, but then he held on to the belief that he was the only one who could win for too long that getting primary elections set up would have taken too long. Republicans were already talking about going to court over Kamala being added to the rolls "too late" so Kamala was "forced" on us.

Dude still thinks he would have won. Fuck him.
The world isn't here to make you happy.
You make the best decision with what you've got.
Americans absolutely failed at doing so. Because they're uninformed child-like dipshits.

People should have voted for her no doubt about that. OTOH Biden refused to step down up until the 11th hour forcing Kamala to be the only option, thus avoiding a primary. The DNC can't keep screwing its voters out of having a proper candidate.

Just fucking sad....
It's getting really dreary checking international news.
It is a gut punch sometimes.
That nails it. Those were the words I was looking for. It's either you read something like that or something else just going deeper in a direction you're reluctantly becoming numb to.
Fred Rodgers looking from heaven: "I'm not mad, neighbor, I'm just disappointed."
Damn this is just terrible. 3 years left to go of this foolishness.
Oh my sweet summer child... You think they're going to give up power at this point? That is not what fascists do.
There's only one solution to fascists, and it can happen naturally after 50+ years, or the 1940's method.

Imagine how much worse things are going to get when Americans are even more stupid than they already are.
Pathetic.
At this point America and North Korea are like two sides of the same coin.
But the goal is to make it to the same side of the same coin.
Mister Rogers is spinning fast enough in his grave to power the entire Eastern seaboard.
The GOP is the Great Filter. Their backwards ideology must be eradicated or we don't get starfaring civilization status.
This is hell and we’re only at about level 2 or 3.
This is a tragedy
