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.

You could’ve been in charge if you had simply denounced genocide. But you couldn’t.
I think that's a bit simplistic. I think Biden's position on Gaza hurt turnout, but at the very most, that would mean Trump would win the electoral vote only rather than both the electoral and popular votes. There were several other reasons, e.g. the economy, Biden not bowing out earlier, Harris not putting some separation between them, etc. that ultimately doomed them.
Right, I forgot that Trump won because of how pro-Palestine he is.
When did I say that? The election had abysmal turnout, and most non-voters say something along the lines of “both sides are the same”. The most effective way to fight back against that narrative is to…actually not be exactly like the other side. Yet the Dems just couldn’t forgo a few million in bribes and actually be materially different on key campaign issues.
Anyone who thinks the two sides were the same is a dangerously stupid person who simply shouldn't vote. Ever.
We know they didn’t vote.
Hey bud I hope you have the day your vote caused.
Gotta love how pointing out Harris/Walz failed at X means you said Trump would be great at X
Too many people with tiny brains are allowed to participate
It was literally a binary election. That’s how FPTP works. In a two party system it’s ridiculous to expect a candidate that has your exact values on every single issue.
But sure protest vote for the next 50 years and see where that gets you.
Bro every one of your recent comments is you being mad af. Maybe reflect on that.
Also the fact that your instinctive response to someone disagreeing with you is to immediately lob insults calling everyone else dumb makes you look insecure about your intelligence.
Nah, just sick of seeing dipshits act like dipshits and not get called out on it, both irl and on here. It's my rock-solid confidence you're a bunch of mouth breathing idiots who hide behind "civility" that leads to the default lack of respect, but good try psycho-analyzing me and getting it wrong, dipshit
Hey bro I already know you aren’t succeeding in life, being this terminally mad online is definitely not the hallmark of someone whose got it figured out.
I was just trying to help you out. Looks like you’ll just have to keep suffering tho.
All those tiny brains who thought not voting for Harris would somehow make things better? You're right.
A genocide happening is not why the Dems lost...
