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.

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.

The longest government shutdown in US history came from Trump and he still got voted back in because people didn't want a South Asian woman as president. And now we have that shutdown record broken again.
The fact that he won the Latino, Muslim and Black vote and now they're acting surprised by the mass deportations, ICE raids and tariffs he's been imposing is peak "Leopards Ate My Face" material.
The democrats should run candidates that care about the working class if they want people to vote for them.
Clearly the 'fall in line' strategy isn't working.
First off I'd agree in the case of most elections since the 80s. When shit like Project 2025 is flashed and you dont vote against the fascist.... yeah you're fucking short sighted and have no moral high ground. The other option wouldn't put brown people in torture camps in El Salvador and violate international law by bombing boats.
Harris is typical neoliberalism trash and the last serious contender for the presidency who gave a shit about people who work for a living was Bernie and then FDR. She was objectively the right choice to vote for if you have a soul at all.
See, you still don't understand.
When the 'fall in line' strategy isn't working, you don't blame the people not falling in line for an establishment candidate. Instead, you should be blaming the people making it so all we have to choose from is 'evil' and 'slightly-less-evil.'
If we could run good candidates that actually represent the working class instead of just candidates who aren't as bad as the opposition, then this discussion wouldn't even be happening.
You are doing your part to support the two-pronged strategy, and the working class continues to suffer because of it. Please do better. Please be smarter.
No, I understand the rationale. It's just shit, infantile logic. I guarantee you I do more for getting leftists in than the moral high grounders did on average plus a SD or two. It's just easier to say inaction isn't an action and act like you're not indirectly responsible for the shit you preached against and more.
That comment clearly demonstrates the problem. That is the attitude of the DNC and the Democratic leadership. Dismiss the electorate as too stupid to live, then wonder why we don't support your terrible candidates.
Well, if you want to do more to get leftists elected, then focus your frustrations on the ones undermining working class agendas. It would do wonders for getting more people out to vote because they would actually feel as though the people they're voting for have their interests at hand.
Getting angry at the people who don't fall in line is a waste of energy.
