Rules:
- The mods are fallible; if you've been banned or had a post/comment removed, please appeal.
- Off-topic posts will be removed. If you don't know what "Leopards ate my Face" is, try reading this post.
- If the reason your post meets Rule 1 isn't in the source, you must add a source in the post body (not the comments) to explain this. If the reason is in the source but is tedious to find (e.g. in a lengthy video), you must add an explanation for where it is.
- Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. Other types of posts should have a title which accurately, relatively neutrally describes their contents.
- For accessibility reasons, an image of text must either have alt text or a transcription in the post body.
- Reposts within 1 year or the Top 100 of all time are subject to removal. Within moderator discretion, this doesn't just include reposts of the exact same media but also includes e.g. a secondary source telling basically the exact same story as another that was already posted.
- This is not exclusively a US politics community. You're encouraged to post stories about anyone from any place in the world at any point in history as long as you meet the other rules.
- All Lemmy.World Terms of Service apply.

MODERATORS
Donald ran on affordability.
It was no more stupid for people to vote for the affordability candidate (especially after four years of rampant COL increases under Joe Biden) than it was for people to vote for Biden on his unfounded promises to lower inflation and eliminate student loan debt. This person has every right to be angry.
Lots of people vote based on words and nothing else. Democrats are no different than this person, and if the roles were reversed, you'd be arguing that Harris was somehow magically powerless to help, because you'd be in exactly the same position. (Though the last two years of Donald's presidency have proven that power was never a problem.)
Whatever helps you sleep at night bro. The signs were on the wall and you missed it.
Waaaaaah! But Joe Biden! Obama! Waaaaaaah!!1!
