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!

Just received this. My name isn’t Daniel and this is the worst scam attempt I’ve received yet.
I got one recently, classified as spam by Android, asking to participate in a presidential poll and with links to click. Of course I didn't, but I do wonder if it was real... If so, they're doing an awful job getting people who aren't complete morons to respond
I admit I assume it’s a scam attempt. No way in hell I’m clicking that link or going to that website. Report spam and delete.
If it is real, they need to do much better, not that it will matter to me.
Part of me hopes it's real.
"Hey boss, I've figured out exactly what we need to do to get our supporters to give us money! It's something they fall for every day already!"
The part of me that reported it as spam also hopes it’s real.
Narrator: but they won't.
I keep seeing ads from them on YouTube. It gets just far enough to hear a guy saying some BS about supporting legislation that is pro-entrepreneur. I give him the finger and hit skip every time. Gotta love sprinkling anti-union anti-labor messages into the commercial with shit that sounds reasonable.
It's a make work project for their progeny. Won't accomplish a thing besides.
