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!

All this is about is setting his opposition to Trump in the upcoming elections. The fact that he still spouts shit like
shows he's still toeing the MAGA party line.
Trump isn't the disease he's a symptom of this pestilent political ideology.
I'm curious. Is there ANY metric anywhere by which our economy is in a bad place from Biden's policies? Now that the presidential delay has settled in, we seem to be in a truly unprecedented economic skyrocket right now from everything I've been reading.
Like, I really didn't like the guy at first, but I'm having trouble faulting Biden's outcomes.
I remember back in December when the economic data came out, my Fox News watching friends were willing to bet there would be a downward adjustment next month which never happened. I asked that exact same question to them by what metric do you not like the economic performance? No answer.
For some people, specially the ones that were young during Reagan years, they assume Democrats will be bad for the economy. It’s unfathomable to them that a democrat can be good for the economy even though over the last 30 years Republicans have been disastrous for the economy.
This was sort of a press against Pence, for me. I didn't see Pence as a liar OR particularly stupid, just zealous and alien to my concerns.
But you're right. The Democrats REALLY need to find a counter for Starve the Beast that doesn't compromise their ethics. It's kinda like a MLB pro playing teeball at this point how easily Starve the Beast propagates lies..
