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!

AND...
Biden is cruising on presumed institutional entitlement/inertia.
The economic-house-of-cards that Biden's ( & many other ) administrations are propping-up as desparately as they can cannot fail to go down, eventually.
No matter how many push the walls of a corrupt building, in a gathering-storm, pushing-on-the-walls won't prevent its collapsing.
IF that house-of-cards collapses in September ( -ish ), THEN Biden's ejected, simply through backlash vote.
Period.
All of the "everything else is going to fight-off-change, but only this single factor may change, and that will decide the outcome" make-believe projections are bogus.
Let the data, Universe's speech, itself, speak.
I guarantee you that it won't happen the way simplistic-projections assert in advance.
AND the political-actors affect things.. AND the contextual-circumstances affect things.. AND I've read that Putin's working to make-certain that the way his war on Ukraina happens shoves the US toward Trump, and believe that to be a natural given.
AND ClimatePunctuation is still accelerating, so maybe the "it's all a hoax!!" ideology will have more "proof" that it's the left who is creating all the extra hurricanes.. ( given the way bias works, that's likely, and I'm not by any measure pretending that the bias of the left is ignorable: it just fixates on different things, & ignores different things.
See the Snopes item on how Biden's daughter's court-testimony does corroborate Joe Biden being pedophiliac, as he shared her showering, while she was a girl, thus that court-testimony corroborates all the photos of him holding other people's little-girls right in front of his crotch, for the photo'd-together shots, that the left won't admit are real. They're sickening.
Exactly as the people who died from multiple-organ-failure from taking Ivermectin, in order to protect them against Sars-Cov-2 which they were told didn't even exist also is sickening.
Integrity isn't allowed, by political-motivation.
Natural Selection's going to be chopping-down this world's population drastically this century.
I don't expect more than 2% of humankind to survive this century, even though the bible gives 1/3 survival for The Great Filter, both in the old testament & in the new ( OK, so Rev gives 1/3 survival for 2nd-seal & 3rd-seal, and ignores all the death in the other stages, but it's still no-where near the 98% eradication I'm seeing as likely )
Surprises are going to happen.
And ignoring all factors except 1, in order to make predictions in political contests, is, unless that 1 is decisive, phony.
