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!

And none of that will save you from your generation's failure. You failed and you're leaving a broken country to your offspring. Don't make that my problem. 65 year olds shouldn't be in office and that's the end of it.
If that hurts your feelings? good. It should. You should have to face your failure, and vote for age restrictions on people in office.
Your leadership didn't work. You led us here.
This is incoherent old person rambling.
Keep believing that it is your age that makes you good. That's all you have.
That's nonsense. But if it's all I have, maybe it's all you left us. The burning need to make sure the old people get out of office immediately.
You can demean it if that's all your old person flailing can do, but you can't shake that burning need.
When I was young I blamed previous generations too.
At least you will can rely on Matt Gaetz, Ron Desantos, Elon Musk to always do the right thing.
This is very precisely the dysfunction of the old: they think they've seen it all so they're unable to listen.
More old person histrionic dribble.
Are you really this incapable of recognizing the problem that geriatrics face? You're showing me precisely the problem I'm describing.
