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 don't know about all this. Harris greatest asset so far has been the fact that she's not Biden. If I was her I would stay as far away as possible to give the public the best chance possible of forgetting both him and how linked they are. The feeling that this is a new, fresh campaign is the reason behind the momentum. Let's not halt it, please?
But what do I know, I'm not a campaign strategist.
My exact thought. People where I live (not the US) are RABIDLY anti Biden. If it reaches as far as rural maritime Canada, I shudder to think how it’s like in actual America. There are cars that drive around here with “Let’s Go Brandon” all over the hood.
They are not targeting deranged loonies like you're talking about.
There are more deranged loonies who vote than sane people who have better things to do than vote. The loonies run public discourse now. Have to pay attention to them or one ends up being blindsided when a loonie candidate gets voted in.
The "let's go Brandon" guys aren't going to vote for any Dem. They are brainwashed clowns in a cult.
That was my immediate gut reaction too, but on reflection she came into the game late and can't realistically cover everything herself.
Seeing that she doesn't have any policy of her own, she is Biden.
