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!

The last time the Democrats had a coherent plan for when they got into office was 1930
The last time the Democrats had a coherent plan for when they got into office was 1930
They have a coherent plan every year, it is to do whatever their masters tell them to do. Both parties have the same masters
It was preceeded by a market crash.
The market is crashing right now.
Hopefully we'll get another Progressive Era.
Wait. Isn’t this the thing Führer Trump said he didn’t know anything about?
Must have been a coincidence then.
Democrats when they win an election: Wahhhh we dont have a congressional majority :c
Republicans when they win an election: FUCK LEGAL PRECEDENT I AM MORE POWERFUL THEN THE COURTS AND GOD, I WILL MURDER ANYONE WHO GETS IN MY WAY
Destroying is always easier than building.
We don't have empathetic leftist polititians who are also willing to "go low".

Democrats when elected: okay but we only had all three branches of government for two years and Joe Lieberman was kinda mean :(
"Why do you dislike us? Our last major victory was a watered down bill by conservative think tanks 15 years ago! We can do more! ...We just never wanna."
Democrats when they win an election: Wahhhh we dont have a congressional majority :c
... because they didn't.
Republicans when they win an election: FUCK LEGAL PRECEDENT I AM MORE POWERFUL THEN THE COURTS AND GOD, I WILL MURDER ANYONE WHO GETS IN MY WAY
... because they HAD the majority. And they stacked the Judicial.
How is this hard to understand?
The parlimanatarian said we can't do it, too bad :c
Okay so the Democrats are just shit at winning elections, got it.
Are you saying you don't like being a democracy with laws?
We haven’t been a democracy with laws since Bush stole the 2000 election and lied to the world to murder a million Iraqis.
Yeah, where the fuck is this “rules don’t apply” when it’s legal weed or college debt?
At least they have an immediately actionable plan. We could learn a thing or two.
Oh absolutely, if the conservatives want to play dirty I say we play just as dirty. Hell lets go lower, we the workers should do absolutely everything in our power to destroy tyranny.
DEATH TO THE TYRANTS
Milton Mayer. They thought they were free. I would recommend this book. It documented everyday Germans who joined the Nazis. I see pretty much every single parallel to America today. We’re all the same people. Nothing exceptional about the US. We’re all susceptible.
