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!

So a bunch of people who are not Trump? Is there a point?
Sure there is.
You forgot priming the pump for a book deal
Right, tons of opportunity for personal gain and opportunism. Vivek was a nobody, but now has the status of a conservative celebrity. Some may also be campaigning for another office, or for another term, as senator or governor. I’m pretty sure presidential campaign money can be diverted to another campaign.
Not just Veep, but a cabinet spot
Bold of you to assume if Trump wins there is a 2028 election and that he wouldnt run if he is alive still
This is really embarrassing for them. Trump completely took the republican hate machine from them 8 years ago and they still haven't come to terms with it. There is only the trump cult now.
These debates are an attempt to suck up enough to be his running-mate. Get the VP slot and make sure he keeps eating many hamberders every day.
It's wild that they are treating him as the incumbent, but what else can they do? He would for sure run as an independent if he doesn't make the nomination.
