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 guess you're right... The only option is to vote for the 80 year old, 300 (215?) lb guy who can't even make it up a ramp
And before you come in with "I'm just saying there could be better options!" there's not, so suck it up and quit with the fear mongering (if you're actually an American)
Stop twisting my words. I said no such thing as to vote for the other fossil. The issue is that the cultists will vote for Trump even if he was a corpse on a chair.
That's also weird. I never even pretended to be. In fact, I am not. But the election outcome usually has an impact on the rest of the world too, and 4 years of Trump was not a pleasure even outside of America, I can tell you that.
Right? We have a VP for these reasons. Biden has Harris and Trump will have one of those young clones from Brazil as a back-up.
I do not love Kamala Harris, she’s a grinning drug warrior, but the heads exploding as we swear in a woman of color would be pretty cool. The global Bosses have decided that we get to choose among evils this race and the Biden-Harris team is significantly less evil.
Bernie is not an idiot. He knows that at this moment holding the line is better for progress than what we will lose if we do not.
Why do idiots always do this whole whataboutism whenever someone criticizes Biden? Just because I criticize Biden doesn't automatically mean I support Trump. That just makes you look really stupid and ignorant as hell.
Because there are literally only two options that have a snowball's chance in hell of winning.
