Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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 once again reminded of the secret attack plan from Blackadder 4.

Capt. Blackadder: We all climb out of our trenches and march slowly across no man's land?

Capt. Darling: How do you know that Blackadder? It's classified information.

Capt. Blackadder: It's what we did the last time, the time before that and the previous fifteen before that.

General Melchit: Precisely! The absolute last thing the watchful Hun will expect is for us to do the exact same thing as the past seventeen times thus catching him entirely by surprise!

I think both parties should split

Jesus Christ woman, get a fucking clue. You lost the presidency to the worst piece of shit on the face of the planet. Why in the fuck do you think you have any chance against anyone else?

Please no. I was excited for her last election but that failed and now I don't wanna hear from her ever again.

Are you shitting me that the dnc (or should I say the billionaires backing the dnc) can't find someone else???

Fuck off Kamala. You failed to trump 2. You're the biggest and most impactful failure in the history of the usa.

[–] TigerAce@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

No, that would be Trump. She's not far behind on the leader board though.

Imagine losing twice the orange shit heel. Like getting back up, looking in the mirror, taking full stock of all your pro cop and ideal stances and thinking "no I was on to something the first time. I'll make them see"

I can't anymore with this place. Release me

So sick of the US's neo liberals masquerading as left. A lot can change in a few years hopefully there will be enough change. In the end all that matters is if people wake up to the lies before it too late. It's incredible how bad it has to get before people wake up.

The MAGA movement is crumbling but only time will tell if it's enough. A lot of delusional neo liberals think things will just go back to normal if they get in office next term

Get. The. FUCK. Out.

Don't come back. The country, or what's left of it, can't afford her. She's fine as a milquetoast corporatist, but she has proven she can't do it.
