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!

I have not insulted you once this entire conversation.
He isn’t intending to move Trump voters from Trump. Just like how the MAGA trolls here that pretend to be “leftists” can safely bag on Trump knowing no one here is voting for him anyway. They wouldn’t be doing anyone any favors by posting pro-Trump rhetoric in plain sight. They’d be laughed off the site.
But sewing dissent can be enough to sway a close election.
And there are a lot of right-of center voters that are on the fence that would back him over Trump- and therefore will support Shill- I mean..
Jill.
So he is taking votes away from Trump, helping Harris.
Ugh… man. How do you not understand this?
There are republicans that don’t want to vote for Trump. You know this right? Tell me you have been paying enough attention to at least know this much.
And many of them would and/or will vote for Harris over Trump.
With me so far? Awesome! Let’s continue!
So now instead of voting for Harris, this clown pops up at the 11rh hour with “Hey everyone! Why not vote for Stein with me! She’s the best!!”
Savvy?
If he wanted Trump to win, then why wouldnt he endorse Trump? This way he would bring normal Trump/Rep voters, to what, what they usually vote for.
Also it is not plausible that the followers of a literal Nazi leader from an organization that wants to exterminate all brown people would prefer voting for a mixed race women over voting for another Nazi.
Because Trump is pretty much capped out. He’s not gaining support. He’s gone WAY too far right. And therefore, he is losing a lot of right-of-center votes. Just like any democrat that leans too far left- becomes unelectable.
Look…
Dude has been a LONG time supporter of Trump. Why on earth would he switch allegiance at the eleventh hour when Trump is offering everthing he his little racist heart desires. He has claims to have absolutely NO commonality with Stein’s policy or agenda, or at least hasn’t over the decades
So… why then? Why with a month left to determine an election is he hitching his wagon to a third party?
Because it’s a ruse. He’s directing undecided disenfranchised right-of-center voters away from Harris.
