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!

Rooting for? I fucking registered as a R so I can vote for her in the primaries.
But when she loses the nomination, will you hold your nose and vote for Trump?
They are probably one of many folks registered republican to vote in the republican primaries. Ive even met socialists who have done such a thing for local politics. I suspect your assumptions may be off as to how OP leans politically.
It would take a financial transaction of many zeros to get me to vote for trump. I'm a FOSS loving, state-hating, anarcho-socialist. I live in a closed primary state, so only party members can vote. I want to help split the GOP into the two worthless parties it should be.
I'm not sure about you, but I used to be a registered Republican. Though my views were more centralist.
I'm not quite sure when my centralist Republican views became extremely far left when my stance hasn't changed since the day I was able to vote.
The first time I voted Democrat was Obama. What he did in the office is closer to a centrist Republican.
Right now I would kill to get another McCain or even a Romney.
I'm not sure where I'm going with this but I feel like sharing
Yeah no offense but I still think you're a piece of shit if you think McCain or Romney are good people to put in charge.
You're story is also boring. If you're so upset do something about it.
No offense taken. Opinions are like assholes, everyone has one.
Romney might have brought Romneycare(universal healthcare). We might not have a shit senate that was hell bent on stopping every justice Obama tried to appoint. We might still have RvsW. We might not have Trump.
These are all mights. Who cares. Just vote in 2024.
