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!

In any other timeline I'd think he would have no chance. But really, how many of is would be really and truly shocked if he won anyway? Surprised? Sure. But actually shocked?
republicans in NC just can't stop offering up completely unelectable psychos and/or morons as their candidates. these are the dicktips who thought madison fucking cawthorn was a great idea
Hell, cawthorn and his talk of cocaine and sex parties looks looks tame by comparison.
Is he unelectable, though?
because it's a cult, dear great leader trump is the only one who's completely unaffected by scandal. small time nobodies like mark robinson aren't. look at madison cawthorn. george santos. christian ziegler. though loyalty is more important than anything else to them, their 2 brain cells rubbing together at least recognizes that this toxic goon will do literally nothing to help the republican party, and everything to make them even more hated than they already are. even fucking trump wants nothing to do with him
completely fucking unelectable
I'm just saying. Total dregs like Marg and Qbert got elected even though they are not qualified, but because they were in deeply red areas. There are many Republicans that will vote for a potato with an R next it.
"Yeah, he said he's a black Nazi and watches tran[s] porn, but my Diaper-wearin' Golden God Emperor endorsed him! Besides, I couldn't possibly vote for a Democrat, they are just so extreme!"
"He's one of the good ones. Well spoken and would own slaves".
