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!

She complained loudly when Trump showed up because she was pretty close to next in line to be her dad's puppet.
Her "position in the GOP" was gone and she then complained about.
She didn't fucking stand up for what is right and throw a career away because of her ethics.
For fucks sake 2016 really wasn't that long ago, why can so many people not remember?
Why are people constantly trying to make it seem like 2014 Republicans were good people?
When you compare them to 2024 Republicans, they are.
And let's get real. Contrary to what some ... people in this forum say, no, we are not saying she's a good person or a nice person. We're saying we agree with her that Trump is a cancer on the country. And many of us are calling everyone that led up to this out, so it's not like she's getting a pass or anything. Quite literally, what the person you replied to is replying to is saying "I don't like her politics" and the other person calls out the fact that her dad's politics is what made Trump possible. The argument that we support the Cheney's is a strawman made of lies. We don't. We just agree with THIS conclusion that if you want to stop Trump, you need to more than stay home or vote third party. But then again, these posters are all the usual ones trying to depress the Democratic turnout because 'they ain't liberal enough' and so they want to make sure that Liz's and Dick's message doesn't get out!
