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!

I have a bad feeling Biden won't win PA. Friends and family there and anecdotal but it's not looking good according to them.
If you want some counter anecdotal evidence, I live in PA, and in 2016/2020 there were Trump signs everywhere. I never really see them anymore.
This is from Central PA Altoona area.
That's about as Trumpy of an area as it gets. I'm in Pittsburgh which is very blue, and still there were large amounts of Trump supporting pockets in the past compared to now.
“A bad feeling”, but you say you hate Biden and constantly post negative articles about him while never saying shit about Trump? I see.
Also, that's very appropriate - Peter griffin is well known as an intellectual luminary.
Republicans fall in line, while Democrats want their Presidential candidates make them fall in love
That's fine, you can dislike Biden all you want. Spending tons of effort to discourage people from voting for Biden has the same effect as supporting Trump, though, which is the entire point. So, great job helping Trump out.
Do you have any original thoughts or can you only communicate with stupid, easily discarded memes that someone else made?
Third parties don't work in the US first past the post system. To support that, agitate for comprehensive, nationwide election reform. Otherwise, you're getting the candidate you theorretically dislike more elected and are an idiot.
Anyway, just weird how I never hear anything from the 'OMG I'm so leftist crowd' about being concerned about Trump winning, and the Republican's plans for the country. Never. Nothing. Just "JOR BIDEN SO BAD OHMERGERD" over and over. If you don't comprehend you're helping Trump, you are either naive, very stupid, or disingenuous.
I feel better now, it had gone from solid Biden, to flipping back and forth, to solid Trump, now it's flipping back and forth again.
Looking like Biden has the momentum, but he really needs to start acting like the campaign has started and not after the DNC in August.
