politics
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!

Typical that you keep blaming others for your own behavior. Just like you have been this whole time.
Gaslight
Obstruct
Project <— you are here
Oh, are you like, a bot trained on redditor's comments? Is that why you only have old memes to reference?
Like, do you have any response to what I'm arguing besides various iterations of "Nuh Uh!"
You mean the exact thing you’ve said for your last 2 replies?
Once again, blaming others for the exact thing you are doing, lmao. So predictable…
If you don’t like that your bs isn’t tolerated here, then leave. Continuing to throw tantrums won’t get you any sympathy.
We're both doing now. That's how this tango works.
I pointed out Democrats are not particularly strategic or serious when it comes to wielding both the legislature and the presidency, you didn't have a response to that, here we are
Once again, blaming others for your actions. That’s not going to work here because we’re not the idiots you think we are.
If you don’t like that your bs isn’t accepted here, leave. Continuing to throw tantrums about it won’t gain you any sympathy.
Really, though, do you think Biden has the political willpower to pull enough swing states? People tend to vote how they feel; keep the incumbent if they're happy, kick 'em out if they're not.
The conservatives seem to think they have this one in the bag, they're already outlining their policy plans, as this article highlights.
You already let the mask slip, troll. Do you think we all have amnesia and forgot, or are you just an AI bot, so you’ve slipped back into the act?
This sounds like a script, lol
Well, I admit I'm enjoying this on several levels. On the one hand, it's funny to collect downvotes. Half the time, it works like a little ticker that says, "Someone has acknowledged what you said, but doesn't have the time or capacity to reply"
On the other hand, I do genuinely enjoy talking about politics. I've been following US elections since I was in middle school. I like to remind people to think about more than this narrow view of this specific election; the reporting and posting and commenting all tends to have such a very short-term memory for these things.
So, you’ve admitted to both trolling and wonton narcissism— of course you still believe you’ve accomplished something here.
Acting like a child throwing a tantrum with an overinflated sense of self-importance. And you’re proud of that, lol. Do you also have your mommy congratulate you on your poops? Lol
🤣
im just typing
but sure, i'll cop to those labels, if you like. One Trolling, Nacissistic screed, mon sieur;
Let's talk about the Obama administration! What a campaign they ran, and what a voter mandate it got them to boot! Can you imagine if they actually used that mandate? If Obama had actually closed Gitmo and pulled out of Afghanistan, like he had said he would. The lives that would have been saved, the blood unspilled; it's beyond calculable.
And what was his legislative achievement, for all that mandate could have done? He passed the Affordable Healthcare Act. A bill modeled on proposals made by the Heritage Foundation. The very same Heritage Foundation that's giving us Project 2025. Imagine that.
Here’s another: deflection. Once again, you attack others rather than face the consequences of your actions.
So predictable.
Are you just copy and pasting from a script or from ChatGPT?
i'm talking about the article, referencing things in it. Do you often classify conversation as 'deflection'?
for someone posting on a politics community, you seem to really dislike actually discussing politics
lol
