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!

And that will be their downfall eventually. Once enough everyday people feel the pain they will vote to change it. But it's going to take a lot of pain.
Hopefully we have midterms
They are going after farmers, veterans, social security, and Medicare. All bipartisan "third rail" issues you can't touch without a large voting base getting fucked over and turning against you.
They do not plan on needing votes for midterms.
Or. Or they will succeed in convincing the brain rotting american public that the problems they are causing, were in fact caused by Liberals and foreigners.
Think about it. It's what they have done for decades, why would that change now?
The majority of the American population is ignorant enough to believe the lies of their abusers so long as they have an R next to their name. This is a self perpetuating cycle at this point as each subsequent generation is intentionally less educated than the last.
folks have felt the pain again and again and yet the pendulum swings.
People felt pain during Bidens admin from inflation and moved to trump. After the pain he will cause I think we will see a much larger shift
thats what I mean though. its great that it will shift but if it goes back again its like one step forward two steps back.
They’ll vote for the guy who says he’s gonna change it… a new republican … who is only gonna make things worse. Propaganda machine is locked in gonna be tough to get those people out
