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!

MODERATORS
That's not a lie. By the metrics they use the economy is doing great. They're using the wrong metrics. The people are not the economy. And not being properly served by it.
Trump voters elected Trump specifically because he lied to them. Just like he did last time. He told them he could fix all these different things and he fixed none of them.
Him acknowledging it isn't necessarily a good thing unless he's actually going to do something to fix it. Which he's not. He will make it worse than the democrats. He did last time. Republicans always do.
Everyone here knows why the Democrats lost. And there were many many reasons. Not just because they did not manipulate voters correctly. Yes they need to address voters concerns better. 100%. But there was also plenty of foreign interference. As well as the fact that we shouldn't discount that the average American voter is ignorant, apathetic, and often fucking stupid when it comes to politics. But regardless of it all. I can guarantee one thing. In five or six years they will have learned nothing from it. Neither the Democrats nor voters.
And you can say that you don't support or defend Trump. But you don't have to bring up Trump to criticize democrats either. Yet you consistently have. You can criticize them on this topic all day long without ever mentioning Trump.
No, you can't here. You cannot criticize the Dems without being up Trump, else people think you're supporting Trump. This is a .world community, like post 2009 reddit, binary thinking is the only thing allowed here.
