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.

Please, please, please let him start attacking blue-collar workers and unions.
Sadly I don’t think that will change any of their minds. Remember his comments on his “preference” of military folks not to be captured? Still has tons of support from the military population.
I read that Biden is more popular among active-duty soldiers but Trump is more popular among veterans. Which doesn’t make sense to me. Trump is a draft dodger and they think he’s the most badass President ever. All he did was golf and tweet. What the fuck
He cheats like a motherfucker at golf too. A decent book called President In Cheat details what an absolute loser he is on the green. His tweets are riddled with typos and nonsense. (My typos are okay because I don't have a PR team and I'm not a "stable genius")
The man is a failure at everything he does except getting away with lying and cheating- and it's not because he's a criminal mastermind. Yet so many people worship him. It boggles the mind.
The possibility that Trump could win is hampering recruiting, to the point that the services are now dropping graduation/GED requirements.
...many of whom probably believe shit like this.
But that’s different! We only hate those that we attempt to bar from serving!
We'll never convince the die-hards. But the moderates can be swayed.
Yah, one only needs to swing the most moderate of one's opposing voters.
And by-and-large, only to stay home. You don't have to vote for Biden, just don't vote for Trump.
Ok, math is hard, but lower turn out is the only way Trump wins. So you should vote and not wanting Trump to win means you should vote for Biden. Third party votes are unfortunately a waste and actually help Trump by lowering the hurdle to win a majority in the state.
Please look at the broader context of my statement here. I'm talking about getting people who were on the fence about Trump but would've potentially voted for him to stay home, because they aren't super happy about him insulting their profession.
Yes, for people who are reasonable and sensible. But for those who aren't, then yes, I think they should stay home.
