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!

Biden said in a statement to People magazine: "This is not a political issue, it’s a family matter..."
I agree, Joe. I don't give a shit about your family just your policies that affect our lives. These articles are so useless. Shame on you Jeff, get it together.

It’s an important political issue because the GOP made it into one.
If republicans had popular policies or accomplishments, they wouldn't be focusing on tabloid bullshit like this.
A bunch of shitsmearing neckbeards declaring that something matters does not make it so.
That sort of dismissive rhetoric is how we ended up with Trump. “They’re just a bunch of idiots, they can’t convince regular voters to vote for him!”
It’s an important political issue because the GOP made it into one.
The hell it is, by that standard we should be talking about Jewish space lasers and and Hillary's emails. You can ignore their rage when it comes to things that don't have real consequences, like this. This is a bad click bait article and isn't worth sharing.
I’m sorry you disagree, but as the article mentions, many voters of both parties expressed serious concerns in opinion polling about him not acknowledging her
Nobody actually fucking cares. Dumbass GOP just has to latch onto anything they can consider dirt because their main guy is a total fucking scumbag
Well, USA Today lists this article under "News > Politics," so...
