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!

That actually wouldn't be a bad scenario:
Trump gets convicted, sent to jail, is no longer the nominee, DeSantis or Haley gets the nod at the RNC in July.
Biden goes "thanks but no thanks" and either Harris or Newsom gets the nod at the DNC in August.
There is a full month between the Republican and Democratic nominations.
Ew. The democrats are creepy. Just ew….
Both parties are just as bad -- look at me posture! Notice me senpai. Dude there is no comparison in american politics right now. One is not left enough and the other is proto fascist. Fuck out here with that rhetoric.
Just an fyi you are blindly repeating corporate media talking points without reading what you are responding to or reading what you are saying. It doesn’t make any sense.
No one said the things you are saying they said.
That's rich coming from somebody who's repeating conservative propaganda that "both sides are bad". Even if there are things you don't like about the Democrats it's not even a fucking choice at the moment.
Also I attacked you for your both sides attitude. If this attitude becomes prevalent in the United States the election goes to Trump which would be very very very bad indeed, and frankly it's just doesn't align with reality. Where exactly did the corporate propaganda touch you?
