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!

"We'll fix it so good you won't have to vote again"
They don't care about votes anymore, as they've made clear
Remind me, didn’t you vote for Trump?
I'm not sure what you even mean. Nope I didn't.
By "grapple with" they mean "completely ignore"?
Yeah mikey johnson broke down and had an epic gooner session and his hands are still slick with vaseline so he can't grapple shit.
More like, it's getting harder for them to deny the Democrats motive for withholding their vote, when their voters are seeing their own premiums skyrocket.
Not grappling hard enough, evidently
Republicans get higher bills but they know they're on the right side, and so set to work building up the next link in the chain of lies.
Let's watch as they create new lore. What surprising developments will come out, before becoming a thing every single one of them says they believe?
Today, XYZ has never touched the lips of a conservative. In one week, XYZ will be why they voted for whoever, whatever. XYZ will be a core belief championed by every true Republican.
