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!

Technically it was only once. Hillary won the popular vote in 2016.
As far as continuing to allow it, I am open to ideas as to how to stop it right here and now…
Hillary did not run universal healthcare, but Bernie did and should have ran against Trump. But noo we let Hilary cheat and get away with it.
She was running on a plan to update the Affordable Care Act with a public option…
Get fucked with that bullshit. She wasn't running on nothing but being first woman president. She wouldn't have done none of that. If she was really wanting to fix healthcare she would of vowed to have Sanders in her administration. Instead she rat fuck him then picked the most conservative VP she could find.
She reason we have to deal with Trump. He husband convinced him to run as a Republican. Because they felt they could rig the general as well. Popular vote or not Hillary is just to goddamn hated. Trump never meant to win. But after he did he got the taste of the power and well here we are. I will not allow people to defend that bitch.
I provided a link, and I was there in 2016, I’m not defending her against Bernie but I’m not gonna sit here and listen to this bullshit either.
I was there to and know she a fucking conservative who help usher in Trump. So you can go fuck yourself with your I'm with her bumper sticker.
You said she had no platform other than being the first woman. I already proved that wrong. Engage in the actual conversation or leave me alone. I already said I wasn’t gonna defend her against Bernie so you’re clearly just looking for an argument that I’m not going to give you.
