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.

Normal energy plants are normal
He keeps saying shit like "Our country has gone to hell."
Every time Trump wants to change what he said, he just pretends he said it sarcastically.

Would he veto? I guess we'll never know
Woo. He CAN hear Kamala laughing her ass off
Not happy that the cop laughed that hard at being accused of supporting defunding the police but the bar is low.
Trump just accidentally admitted he thinks there is "some good" in Project 2025.
He’s been a leader on the fertilization everyone 😂😂😂
Holy shit. The hit on his rallies was fantastic.
Trump’s Wharton professor repeatedly called him ‘the dumbest goddamn student I ever had’.
Oh. Wow. Worst vice president in us history.
trump hates Kamala more than pence
It seems we know the answer to ‘will it be happy trump or angry trump?’ Angry. Very angry.
I wish someone would ask Trump what a tariff is and how China pays it. They just let him get away with it.

Here comes some Putin felatio.
Oh shit he's running with it! The eating cats!
Trump is clearly starting to get rattled. He's going off the rails.
She needs to stay on target.
He brings up the border?
She brings up the fact that he killed the strongest border bill the US has ever had because "it would make Biden look good."
He brings up the cost of things?
His tariffs will raise prices by at least 10% across the board.
He brings up she's soft on crime.
She can bring up that he literally is crime incarnate.

Refreshing that page re-generates the bingo grid....
Jump scare
She's definitely going to get the chance to question if Trump knows what a tariff is.
Anyone else having a sinking feeling about this? Feels like a lot is riding on it.

Right now at the one-hour mark I would say Harris is winning the debate 65/35. But, I think for his supporters and undecideds already leaning his way, this hasn't moved the needle. That's more the result of the fact that his supporters are in the CoOM: Cult of Orange Man.

Here comes that dictator fetish.
And going for the truth of him being weak.
Trump's Ukraine solution: "...make others pay for it."
Trump and his handlers just before the debate:
Handler: Mr President... (he insists on being called that by his people) - before you go out there I want you to promise again that you won't bring up the thing about people eating cats and dogs...
Trump: yeah, fine
Handler: Remember how we talked about this? And how you promised that you won't bring it up no matter what happens?
Trump: Yeah, fine, whatever.
