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!

Honestly, I find his overture to Harris absolutely fucking hilarious. What the fuck did he think the response was gonna be, considering how much of a goddamn wingnut he is?
They're joining the guy who takes credit for operation warpspeed? The vaccine rollout program? Me thinks they don't care about their #1 issue as much as they say they do.
Oh noes! He's going to give all his 0.01% of the vote to Trump! What are we going to do?
He's polling higher than that. Closer to like 5-6 percent in quite a few states. It's certainly enough to swing the election.
I'm sure that'll work just fine.
Guys. I think maybe he was just a russian foil all along.
I don't know. It seems to me like he's just a bog-standard grifter and wanted to trade some votes for a cushy do-nothing job.
He's obviously a spineless opportunist regardless.
Shadiest thing is that RFK called BOTH campaigns and offered his support and voters in exchange for cabinet positions.
And because Trump is a corrupt fuck who loves quid pro quo, don’t be surprised if he puts this anti science nut job in dangerous role.
The plan has officially backfired.
Jail. Election fraud.
As they always were going to.
They better make a decision pretty quickly - I know here in NC absentee ballots get sent out early September.
