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!

Against who?? He's an incumbent president, of course he was going to win the primary. Of his 2020 opponents, Warren, Sanders and Klobuchar are on record being proud of what Biden has been able to accomplish legislatively, and all three are 100% behind him, and Buttigieg is working in his administration.
Isn't the governor of New Hampshire a Republican? I've always considered New Hampshire to be a politically sane and somewhat moderate state
Which makes all this bullshit so much more frustrating anyways...
Biden was always going to win this primary, so what the fuck is the point of all these shenanigans?
Is it the same as when Biden loses his temper with journalists and voters who question him?
Do we really want a president willing to do this shit in a primary election he's all but guaranteed to win, and even if he loses, the party could still make him the candidate?
This shit isn't rational behavior, and it's going to depress turnout in the general when he needs it.
Because progressives would always prefer a moderate to a Republican...
But moderates don't always prefer a progressive to a Republican.
Caring about the American people is a liability when you're in a 3 way stand off with two people who have a week to live. They don't care if they lose.
Edit:
They are sane...
That's why they voted for Bernie in the 2016 and 2020 primary...
Which is why the DNC suddenly had a problem with them going first...
WTF are you talking about?! Can you say specifically what you think Biden did here?
