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.

Pretty sure the Democrats also had a platform of helping small businesses? Like those still exist.
The Democrats have a platform of saying that want to help small business, in fact they steal from small businesses to give to Big Business, same as the republicans, although a little bit less.
Yeah that person is speaking emotionally not truthfully. Kamala ran on a first time homebuyer credit to help out the enormous swath of millennials and Gen z that have been priced out of taking part in the economy in a meaningful way, just as a single example that is top of mind. Im sure a quick Google would reveal a bullet list.
Your rebuttal is nonsensical. She had every opportunity to distinguish herself, and ample resources to get her message across.
SHE FAILED!
We had a vote, and she lost, to a horrific pustule of a human being. There is no greater indictment of her than that. She had a clean shot and she missed completely.
Rebuttal? The actual fuck are you talking about.
I just stated a fact. I said nothing of her winning, I...
You know what, I'd prefer you don't respond, actually. Go have the life I know you'll have.
Ooh, a block button! ✌️
Dude, you threw the first turd. Don't play innocent with me.
"Yeah that person is speaking emotionally not truthfully."
That is what we call a fact, my guy.
Back to the block list forever. 🥂
No, that is called a supposition.
Her loss and her failure are facts.
Plenty of deep blue state governors who could do this if the Democratic party had any intention of solving the cost of living crisis. It's empty promises.
Anyway it's a moot point. Harris was a trash candidate. Registered Democratic voters made it very clear they never wanted her to run in the general election. Not that it was her fault she ended up in that position. Biden was hot garbage and anyone who voted for him in the 2020 primaries is an asshole.
Save it for an audience that doesn't know any better. We all know Kamala was a neoliberal hack that was annointed and not even nominated by voters with four plus months to go, for the majority of this country's history the Presidential nominee was not chosen until late August.
But you needed that time to fundraise, how did that workout for you? And you are blaming us? We all knew she couldn't win and you nominated her anyway.
