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!

Is this the best our country can do? Two dinosaurs who act inappropriately around women and children?
I think you are (intentionally?) confusing the large gap and missing the nuance between raping, potentially even worse things as we’ve recently got more proof of, and acting goofy and awkward with greetings or whatever. Both can be described inappropriate, sure, but you have to realize there’s a long way between rape, pedophilia, and awkward greetings with kisses to forehead or whatever.
He assaulted Tara Reid and you call it a kiss on the forehead? Your blue hat must be full of mercury. You're sick
I’m sick? Blue hat?
At this point it’s clear you’re just intentionally being provocative and contrarian.
If you had a specific case to point out, such as that one, you could have just done that, instead of whatever the fuck this is.
I still don’t know the case you are referring to, which could have been a great moment to educate and inform others, instead you spent the opportunity attacking and calling me sick, for what? You boggle me. Makes no sense.
They're talking about the lying sack of traitorous shit, Tara Reade, who has a hard time telling the truth about ANYTHING, oh, and defected to Russia when things got spicy.

believe women
@evatronic @orgrinrt You yanks and your perverted presidents
This is what you get when you never leave your echo chambers. Absolutely fucking retards strutting around thinking they have a fucking clue when they're horrifically misinformed.
Two?
The right seems to think- though I’m not sure think is really the correct term but… they seem to think Biden is a rapist too. Basically anything Trump is accused of, Biden automatically has done also.

Sexual assault. Not rape. Both are horrible but there is a difference.
Yes. I will gladly die on it. raping multiple women is worse than sexually assaulting one.
A claim is not the same as a conviction. My god… what is going on in public schools nowadays? Is simple logic not taught anymore?
The right homeschools.
LOL - Tara Reade is not a credible source. Caught lying under oath multiple times, fled to Russia. Try again.
