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!

That was nice Billy Madison moment when the moderator reminded Trump he didn't answer the question.

Oh, he's pissed now... and she's leading him around by the nose.
Please please explain tariffs to this man!
He said no one died on January 6th except for Babbit. Guess he's anti police.
I don't think it really hit me how badly our country was doing until I heard Linsey Davis say, "There is no state in our country where it's legal to kill a baby."

Kapow! Harris landed a good one. She knew where to hit him: his fragile ego about crowd sizes.

When I heard Kamala Harris had been speaking to Hillary Clinton, I cringed, because Clinton lost. However, it sounds like what she was looking for from Clinton was what to expect from Trump, which is reasonable to ask Clinton about.
Trump lying about how much money his father gave him. Just straight up lying.

lol “He’s having a hard time processing that”
My god Trump is utterly deranged. There are millions of people that are still going to vote for him. If he actually wins, we deserve what's coming for allowing ourselves to be so bloody stupefied. It's unreal. Kamala carried herself like a leader.
"this is why we need a president who is not consistently weak and wrong" 😆
Holy shit. Kamala is killing it. She’s inspiring at this point.
How long before someone uploads a game called Spheres of Terra to Steam?
Republicans nerfed Obamacare, you bollard. You KNOW this is a lie. Jeebus.

“They can manipulate you with flattery and favors.” That’s an intelligence assessment IIRC.
ANSWER THE DAMN QUESTION DIRECTLY BRUV
How can anyone vote for this guy? He's a glorified nut and liar.
What the fuck is he talking about Russia when taking about Israel-hamas?

Yeah, fuck private insurance. Pay for the privilege of paying for medical care.
Still has no idea what NATO dues are for and how they work, and still wants to be running against Biden.

Okay. Fuck abc for unmuting him whenever he talks but holy shit the female moderator is doing her job. Fact checking and follow up questions.
Morning after thoughts:
- The memes from this one are already amazing. "Concepts of a plan" is going to haunt Trump until his dying day.
- Trump usually dominates any conversation he's in, simply by being the loudest one there. It often works for him. Last night, it worked against him, because he was loud about what Harris wanted him to be loud about.
- In retrospect, the level of optimism Harris was able to maintain throughout was very impressive. She looked happy to be there, even when confronted by Trump's obvious mental illness, and I don't think she was faking it.
I'm starting to have genuine hope for November.
No credible reports of animals being hurt. Boom.
Sweet lord The Daily Show writing room must be absolutely overjoyed they have so much Trump material.
Oh no. He’s gone full nutjob…
And Taylor Swift just endorsed Kamala Harris.
They're letting Trump get away with murder here. I expected nothing but am still disappointed. He's basically running with a hot mic while Kamala has to wait for her turn. Unbelievable.
Unsurprisingly he's also bulldozing the hosts in typical fashion. They at least seem to occasionally try some pushback against him, but they seem woefully incapable of actually controlling him.
