For civil discussion of US politics. Be excellent to each other.

Rule 1: Posts have the following requirements:
▪️ Post articles about the US only

▪️ Title must match the article headline

▪️ Recent (Past 30 Days)

▪️ No Screenshots/links to other social media sites or link shorteners

Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. One or two small paragraphs are okay.

Rule 3: Articles based on opinion (unless clearly marked and from a serious publication-No Fox News or equal), misinformation or propaganda will be removed.

Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, ableist, will be removed.

Rule 5: Keep it civil. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a jerk. It’s not acceptable to say another user is a jerk. Cussing is fine.

Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.

"This DEI, that seems like a petty look. I disagree with DEI, but she is the vice president of the United States. She is the [sic] former U.S. senator. These congressmen that are saying it, they're wrong in their own instincts," he argued.

He also said the attacks could backfire if Harris shows her mettle in the coming months, and could inadvertently bolster her profile. "That would be an advantage for Kamala. Air Force One is very powerful when it lands somewhere, and you know what? Something will happen between now and the election, a hurricane or something else, and she'll be able to present herself as a leader."

They booted McCarthy specifically because they were so offended by the fact that he prioritized political reality over partisan posturing, so no - they're not going to listen.

In just a few days, this race went from scary and stressful to pure popcorn. At this point, I'm not even sure if Harris has to actively run for office - it looks more all the time as if the republicans are going to beat themselves with no help from snyone else.

I think you are right, Trump and co. are surely going to shoot (no pun intended) themselves in the feet man more times.
