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!

VOTER FRAUD! There's NO WAY someone who Campaigned on Helping the Middle Class could BEAT a Sex Offender with Billionaire Sugar Daddies! There's NO WAY!
How could a guy that was forced to resign as governor fail to get elected as mayor?!?!
NYT editorial staff in shambles.
Fuck them in particular
End of the world in 30 days!
Working class, not middle class.
This is very important. Too many people think policies that help the middle class help them, and its like, bitch, you do not own a house. You are less than 3 months worth of paychecks away from being on the street. You are not middle class.
Most people aren't middle class anymore.
When politicians say middle class, its almost always so they can appeal to rich people while phrasing it as applying to you.
You are working class.
Just about everyone here is working class.
Working class is the median class.
Your satire is top notch ;)
Plot twist, he's legitimately angry, and wearing a red hat.
.........no, I'm just joking. Don't flame him.
I bet Trump is already saying that
