Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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!

so you're calling him Genocide Joe because of all he's done to stop the genocide in Ukraine, right?

Russia has been waging a very genocidal war there... if trump were president Ukraine would be Russia by now, and the ethnic cleansing would be in full swing...
AND he would've still supported the war in palestine

p.s. im from michigan, no fucking way drumpf is going to win michigan...

Michigan has a large Arab voting base so.

Idc about 'if Trump'. Trump is a fascist and a dumb one at that. Doesn't change jack fucking shit about Israel razing entire cities and the people that live in then. Summarily executing children. Restricting food access, medical, water, shelter, hygiene, privacy and maternity care.

A woman lay on the road giving birth and her family was told at gunpoint to keep walking. They haven't seen her since. A car with a 6 year old in it was blown up. Every university is gone, clinics blown up. Men are rounded up and shot. Civilians bearing white flags following Israeli commands are shot. The graves are robbed, there is no dignity for the dead even. When food supplies do Come in, the people Who try to get a bag of wheat flour are shot at (happened several times). Schools are bombed, protected UN sites are bombed, ambulances are bombed, hospitals are bombed. Electricity is cut and fuel is scarcely coming in.

And that's on top of an apartheid regime that has for decades now governed every single second of the Palestinian's lives, thans in no small part to the unconditional support from folks like Biden from even back when he was a senator and through the Obama years. May I remind you that Biden's Policy hasn't shifted an inch towards Obama's slightly less pro israel stance, but only more towards Trump's, with keeping the embassy in Jerusalem and refusing to work towards a nuclear oversight deal with Iran? The first thing this dude did when children were torn to shreds by Israel's massive bombs was to go around congress and send billions in 'aid'. Meaning more bombs to shred children with.

So yeah. Fuck Trump. But if your callous and indifferent ass can't say "fuck Biden too" then you're not reaching the lowest common bar humanity has and buddy, that bar is pretty fucking low.

i've been saying fuck biden since before he was elected....

you going around screaming the trump fan base's slogan of "genocide joe" while ignoring trump's fascism is effectively promoting a fascist dictatorship...

ive also been against the genocidal regime in israel for decades before this current assault... but it's definitely far from Biden's fault.

He went around congress to send billions worth of weapons and bombs to kill Palestinian children

The guy couldn't be more culpable if he stuck a drone up his ass and flew it into a hospital

Fuck that bullshit
